It really is well done, the Harry Potter stuff. We aren't huge Universal fans because there's not as much for kids, and my wife hates the way they do their Express Passes (at Disney they're free and first-come-first-served, very democratic--Universal charges for their version). But I do enjoy their rides and everything.

There was a NASCAR Cafe at CityWalk, the shopping/dining complex between the two parks. But that got the axe last year and is being reconstructed as we speak. I don't know that they've officially announced what it will become, but I gather the rumor is an NBC sports-themed restaurant.
