Will be at USH for a weekend before DLR. Are there restaurants that need reservations? Any special character meals available? (We did a Minions breakfast at USO).
Yep that's why I askedOn the Universal Studios Hollywood website, under dining search, nothing comes up for Character dining

Three Broomsticks is probably the only neat restaurant that is worth dining at, most of the rest of the places are basic theme park food.
We don't have Bubba Gump near home, so I've already gotten a gift card to use there. We enjoyed it at USO but I had to keep explaining stuff because DS13 has never seen the movie. Also I have Landry's club membership so we get priority seating.As far as citywalk, they are all chain restaurants, so it depends on whether you like the restaurant. We like Bubba Gump, didn't like MargaritaVille
We had that at USO. Passable but not great.(The one thing I really don't get is the giant donut from Lard Lad. We got it once and it was NOT GOOD.)
A bunch of influencers I followed did a VIP tour the other day and confirmed it is indeed back. They met with Doc at lunchThe VIP tour has character dining during it's lunch, but it's not guaranteed. For example, Doc Brown, or one of the monsters (dracula, frankenstein, etc.). However, because of covid, I am not sure if they are still doing.
Otherwise, inside the park:

I've never tried to get reservations, if you go at a busy time, you can expect to wait.
That's good to hear. What I meant by "not guaranteed" is that you aren't guaranteed to see a specific character unlike most character meets, even before covid. It just seems random who will show up, as well as how many show up.A bunch of influencers I followed did a VIP tour the other day and confirmed it is indeed back. They met with Doc at lunch
The basic theme park foods are still pretty decent, but definitely nothing special. (The one thing I really don't get is the giant donut from Lard Lad. We got it once and it was NOT GOOD.)
I have tried the Lard Lad doughnut once. I didn't like it either, glad it was not just me. I think it just gets the lines due to how obscenely large it is.
