    Waiter 'D' - straight up amazing! He wasn't our waiter but D came to our table twice (even brought us our food) & talked about the aquarium - very knowledgeable & enthusiastic :)

    Looking for a unique dining experience? Eat under a canopy of trees at the Rainforest Café. You’ll forget you are in Minnesota, instead trying to survive in a rainforest! Read more

    Mushroom ravioli is very good! Also the rewards club is worth it if u come 1 or two times a year!

    Be prepared! Thunderstorms occur about every 30 minutes. Some kids love it but others get really scared.

    The waitstaff are good. The food largely is pedestrian fare and IMO over priced. They do a good Reuben and is priced to move. BBQ pizza is a disappointment. Fried fare (shrimp, chicken) is passable.

    A little pricey on the food, but you gotta try the Green Python.

    Sat at the bar, 10 minutes later, one of four bartenders finally said he'd be right with us. Even after helping the couple sitting next to us 5 minutes earlier. We left.

    The volcano dessert is a must! But share between 3-4 people, it's huge.

    Call ahead to make sure their mice have found new homes outside of their walls. As of 10/20/10 they were still living there. :(

    Seriously over-priced. $3 for soda. $6 for kids meals. I think the "queso" sauce is actually Velveeta. The Reuben was good, though. Skip the nachos.

    God awful. This place is what Xanax was made for. Highly over priced tourist trap. A lil slice of everything that is wrong with America. Your kids will love it.

    Highly over priced and the food portions are extremely small for the price. The service was very slow and the waitress was rude/gave us attitude. Proceeded to charge us a $17 gratuity, not deserved.

    Hope you don't get Troy as your waiter. Terrible, he told us as soon as he came to our table he couldn't wait to get off work & it definitely showed in his attitude & lack of professionalism.

    Most expensive worst tasting fajitas I've ever had. Talk about dry, no flavor, small quantity. Much better fajitas at Chili's. and cheaper.
