What are your top 3 meals/snacks in Universal (Resorts, Citywalk/Parks)?

Just booked for 2020 and we'll be staying on site at Aventura for the first time. We haven't dined much on property in previous years so interested to hear what are your top 3 meals/snacks (and where) on Universal property?

We're a party of 2 adults so any recommendations for cocktails are also welcomed!

Thanks in advance!

Margaritaville (volcano nachos, cheese curds and their margaritas are amazing... side note, it’s 5 o’clock somewhere doesn’t apply here, they wouldn’t serve alcohol until 12! ), Cinnabon and either Menchies or Coldstone Creamery for me!

Love Aventura. We are not long back from a week there.

Top meals, our highlights this time were cowfish, strong water tavern and breakfast at Amatista.

Hard rock hotel the kitchen Sunday brunch is great. The Palm is stunning but pricey.

Aventuras roof top bar is really nice as is their food court.

Get a refillable cup if you like icees and sodas.

Here’s a link to my latest food report - pretty much all universal.

Bar 17 bistro at the top of Aventura, lovely bar food, great cocktails & lovely setting with stunning views, it’s so chilled out on the comfy sofas, it was the favourite night of my last holiday there, the bao buns were so good & I don’t often say that about food in Orlando, both me & dh loved it

I think the only snack I have ever had on Universal property is a cake pop in Starbucks. For meals our favourites are Bubba Gump, Cowfish, Margaritaville.

We stayed at Cabana Bay for four nights and then had the Disney dining plan for two weeks, and to be completely honest the best snack we had was at Universal Studios! In Carmen's Veranda outside Cafe La Bamba (I think it's called that) they sold a pizza pretzel and it was SO GOOD, we've never heard anyone mention it before and we only stopped because we were starving, but it was honestly the best thing we ate on our trip, maybe we are easily pleased but we loved it.

We also really enjoy Cowfish (burgers and sushi, best of both worlds) and then going to Menchies after - they have liquid marshmallow and peanut butter that you can pump over frozen yogurt... the best thing ever.
