Lucas our waiter was outstanding. He gave the impression he actually wanted to be there and be our waiter. He made it a very enjoyable time, he even sang loudly as he brought out the volcano cake for our daughter’s birthday celebration. I am glad we made reservations and was happy to be able to be seated in the elephant room.
All 5’s all around. Couldn’t have had a better time.

Damn the man, save the Rainforest Cafe!
This place is decked out in theme. My kids loved it, the food was great, the bourbon BBQ salmon was probably some of the best salmon just have ever had. The kids loved all the “live” animals thruout the jungle and enjoyed the “storms”. Would have given 5 stars but our server was not the best and made our visit just a bit awkward.
It’s expensive, but you get what you pay for. The food was delicious and attractive. The service was great. The atmosphere was, of course, one of a kind! We had left and forgot our souvenir cups, when we went back a few minutes later, our tables were already cleaned off, which is good they’re on the ball lol, fortunately for us, a nice staff member was able to retrieve our cup (those were $14 with the drink). We had a good memorable experience, thank you everyone!
very great food! i got the python pasta and it was very good and was the perfect amount. the sounds in the rainforest sound very realistic and we had lucas as our waiter and he was so nice and fun!
The thunderstorms roll through about every 20 minutes, so you can tell how long you have been there. We had an appetizer sampler platter & added the spare ribs. The platter without the spare ribs would have been more than enough for the two of us. The staff was friendly & attentive. It was very busy when we were there but I never felt ignored.
Visited for the first time as a family get together. The decor is cool and is very entertaining to kids. However, it’s very dim and hard to read the menu, and the music laid with random animal sounds makes it very loud, and good luck having any conversation when the rainstorm hits. But it has a nice appeal for children. The fish was yummy, and I really enjoyed the coconut shrimp. The steak was a very nice medium rare, and the volcano chocolate cake was a lot of fun, though it was just a scoop of icecream, a lot of frosting, and some stripes of chocolate brownie laid to make a pyramid.
My kids adored it and loved it just as much as I did as a kid and now do as an adult.
We absolutely will be back
