Reviews Summary

Rainforest Cafe offers a visually stunning and immersive rainforest experience that delights families and kids with its animatronic animals and themed decor. While the atmosphere is a major draw, reviews suggest the food quality is average and can be pricey. Service can also be inconsistent, with some experiencing long waits, though attentive staff are often highlighted.

"Really nice location. The place is bigger than what it seems from outside.
The location is great where all the family activities are across from the falls.
Food is what one would expect from any other Rainforest Cafe.
I haven’t been in one in a while since our local location in the US closed years ago, however I found the food quality to be slightly better here.
Staff as always is very friendly.
Our server, Maria was very attentive and nice to talk to."

"It’s expensive for what it is. I don’t consider myself a big eater, but I managed to finish most of the pasta dish, so I don’t feel like they give you a lot for the price. $35 for the Anaconda Pasta which is only veggies.

The pasta was undercooked and it didn’t have the “chewy” taste that comes with freshly made pasta. It also kind of tasted like it had been sitting out for a bit. Instead of being chewy, it was breaking apart.

The Rainbow Colada was not a rainbow at all. It was just white and pink. It was tasty, but my friend & I agreed that we didn’t taste much alcohol in it. It was $16.

Can’t say I’d recommend coming here. It seems gimmicky. The interior is kind of cool, but the thunderstorm they advertise every 30 minutes wasn’t as exciting as I thought. If they had dimmed the lights, it would’ve been more realistic, but it was just lights on the ceiling that would flicker and some animal noises."

"The rainforest theme is incredibly well done – from lush greenery and playful animal statues to large aquariums that mesmerize little ones.
The kids’ menu is full of options, with several options on a kids pictorial menu.
As for the food, it’s… okay. Portions are decent, but the quality is average – nothing to rave about. The cocktails were good though.

Staff were friendly and helpful, and overall the experience was smooth and enjoyable. If you’re looking for a cool, interactive spot to entertain kids, this place hits the mark – just don’t expect gourmet meals."
