Rainforest Cafe

This is a chain restaurant located at the Downtown Disney Marketplace. The atmosphere is really interesting, with lots of colors and animals everywhere. Every so often, they would have a "thunderstorm" and the place would come to life. Overall, we really enjoyed this restaurant. They serve all kinds of food here. We started out with the rainforest pita quesadillas, and we both thought they were very good. My husband had the shrimp platter, which he absolutely loved. I had the tree-top filet, which was a steak with a portobello mushroom. It was delicious, and it came with garlic mashed potatoes which were also delicious. Our service was very good. It can be pricey, but we really enjoyed our time here. The noise from the "thunderstorms" didn't really bother me, but if you want a nice, quiet, romantic dinner, this isn't the place to go.

The inside is filled with rainforest decorations and aquariums. It has real looking animals that move and make noises. The bar stools are shaped like the bottom half of animals. The waiters are really nice and the prices may seem expensive but the food makes up for it. Personally, I would recommend the strawberry and mango shortcake, it is amazing!

I thought this was a wonderful place to eat! The food was great, I had the cheese pizza and the others got the ribs! The atmosphere was excellent and we were seated in a decent manner.

My husband and I went to the Rainforest Cafe in the Animal Kingdom for breakfast. Even though there's a Rainforest Cafe in the city that I live in, I have never been before but always wanted to. The inside decor immediately gives you the feeling that you're in the jungle. From the wild animal sounds to the robotic animals, everything is decorated in detail.

The service was a bit disappointing but we cut our waitress some slack because she was semi-new and did not have enough experience yet.

We both ended up ordering good ol' steak and eggs and it was really good—not delicious, but good. Out of a rating of 1 to10, I'd give the entire experience a 7.

Rainforest Cafe is the heart of all specialty dining. This place will blow you off your feet, be prepared to be amazed. If you are a first timer, let me clue you in on the Rainforest Cafe Restaurant. This restaurant has the theme rainforest for one reason, its menu items typically come from a rainforest. Now there is everything on the Menu, not just African food. The whole restaurant is humongous and is decorated in Rainforest animals, some are fake but some are real. It's hard to tell which are which, really. The animals make noises that are real animal noises from the forest. Now, make note, real animals are caged up, that or they are in secure places. The restaurant is covered in trees and leaves (particularly fake but who can tell?!?!?!?).

This restaurant is family based, specialty dining, and contains all kinds of food. Nothing ever can be compared to a restaurant like this, and it never will be. This restaurant is perfect for Animal Kingdom because of its animal theme. The restaurant is located on North Rainforest Road, yes, the streets in Animal Kingdom are named. And they are most fun to read as well. But remember when you go to Animal Kingdom, GO TO RAINFOREST CAFE'!!! It is the best fun while eating you'll ever have!
