Guestbook & Reviews

Experience Through Their Eyes

The Rainforest Cafe will always be my favorite restaurant and I love it every time I go. The atmosphere alone is worth the visit having forest trees and plants, fake animals throughout the restaurant, sounds of the jungle, and random lightning storms that flash through the restaurant. It's such a fun and immersive experience that you can't get elsewhere. You would think the food wouldn't be the best considering how much detail is put into the atmosphere, but this is not the case! The Rainforest Burger and Safari fries are so good, and it's one of my favorite meals from any restaurant. This is the kind of meal you think about later in the week and want again. One thing that disappoints me though is the service. I remember going as a kid and having my server put in a lot of effort to try and sell the idea that we were on a safari adventure, but this location doesn't seem to prioritize that. I completely understand not going above and beyond if you are an adult group at this establishment, but I have brought children a few times and it has been the same as when I've gone without children. I personally would like if they could experience the same service I had at the Rainforest Cafe when I was a kid. But, the rest of the restaurant has no complaints! Who wouldn't want to eat a great meal inside of a themed restaurant? Overall, the Rainforest Cafe is the best having great food, an amazing atmosphere, and an experience you can't really get anywhere else. I highly recommend visiting!

I had such an amazing experience here with my family. The food was absolutely to die for. There were amazing vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. The only problem was the wait for our food, but the elevated atmosphere including animatronics made it so much better.

The food was absolutely delicious and filling! I really should have taken home leftovers but it tasted waayyy too good, I devoured it and left no crumbs! They also offer gluten free pasta which allowed my partner to indulge. The quinoa noodles had a perfectly soft texture and Rainforest Cafe did not skimp on flavors! We were seated by the elephants where they came alive and the storm fully engulfed you into the experience! The drinks were potent yet tasty! We came on a thursday so parking was only $10. It was such a great time and everyone was so friendly, we're already planning our next visit back! Thank you so much for the experience and tasty eats! Rainforest Cafe did not disappoint!

We came here for dinner, and it was an amazing experience! The animals move and make sounds, and the fish tank looks like it's straight out of Finding Nemo! The drinks were delicious, and you can take their signature glasses home with you (great souvenir). The food was so good we were chowing down, and the portions were so big that we packed it to go because we just couldn't finish no matter how hard we tried. I love this place!
