Great for kids! Came here because I miss the one that was in Vancouver. The portions were big & the mashed potatoes were so deliciously garlicy.

Wildberry sangria is delicious! Very sweet tasting. It is supposed to come in a souvineer cup for $11.99, but you can skip the cup and get it without for $6.99.

Chip, our server, was awesome!! He seemed precognitive! Lol. I didn't ask for anything because as soon as I was about to ask, he'd show up with it.

BBQ chicken wrap is great. Tomato Basil soup was even better. A really cool place for all ages but especially kids 10 and under..

So it was supposed to be a Presidents' Day special treat with my wife and daughters and it ended up being a loooooong wait for a table and food. They were short workers on a busy day #SMH

Very original rain forest atmosphere, moving animals, tropical aquariums and gift shop.

If you want a fancy commemorative glass, make sure to say so. Sometimes they assume you don't want one.

Portions are too big 😊 Staff is so kind and cheerful.

Of all the rainforest cafes, this one has hands down has the best gorillas. They stink like bananas and shit. Very realistic. Or it was my server. Either way. Impressed.

A great Disney-esque experience for youngsters. The food was surprisingly good
Tracey ScottJanuary 9, 2016
Of course the Volcanos but not much else after that. The appetizer platter is like something of a dollar store box dinner.

Share an entree cause the portions are large. Get a free appetizer once you join the safari club.

Be careful where you sit with little ones. Some of the animals that move will freak them out.
Chris AngelJanuary 2, 2012
Great place to take the kids for the appetizer platter.
Moelicious MammaFebruary 15, 2015
The jungle theme, animated gorillas and elephants and the "thunder storm" were appreciated by my 6 year old. Service was sub par, food was average at best.

Surprisingly one of the best cheesesteak sandwiches I've had in Chicago

Don't sit by the elephants unless you like to be watched by them its crept

Once your kids are grown and move out you'll never have to come here again.

Saturday is one helluva busy day. Trying to get a table is ridiculous.

The Pork Chop Dinner is De Lu cious!
Kate SpenceJuly 5, 2013
One $ is totally misleading. It's easily $$$. $16 for a salad? Still, as far as tourist traps go, it's nota bad one.

Watch your head. A smoky smelling waiter hit

Don't come expecting good service or food. Atmosphere is cool, but all the rest is sub par at best.

Ask for the secret table behind the aquarium ...
