    I wanted to give a huge shout-out to Dan at the Rainforest Café! He was honestly one of the best servers I’ve had anywhere. Super friendly, on point with everything, and you could tell he really cared about making sure we had a great experience. He kept checking in at the perfect times, had a great attitude, and made the whole visit feel fun and easy. If anyone deserves to win this contest he’s told us about, it’s definitely Dan. he went above and beyond!

    I love Rainforest Cafe! The only problem we had was that the dining in music was a little loud, and the menu didn't say that the food we ordered had red onions on it, and so we had to send it back to get re-made. But Elena took amazing care of us the whole time!

    Our server was Theresa and she was absolutely amazing !! Haven’t been back here in years and let me tell you we had a phenomenal time and great experience. We had the jerk chicken and shrimp pasta and the Cajun ny strip with the bourbon shrimp. Absolutely delicious!! Definitely will be back due to the great hospitality. Thank you Theresa!

    My husband and I joined my daughter and her family to celebrate my granddaughter’s 19th birthday. The restaurant was very busy, but we were seated quickly and our server, Devon, greeted us quickly, He was polite and very attentive to our requests as there were several adjustments to our order for dietary needs. Understandably, it took some time for appetizers and then our meal, but Devon circled back frequently to keep us updated and get any drink refills. This was a casual celebration for us so we’re were not in a big rush. We were surprised and very grateful when the manager came and apologized for the delay and expressed that the issue was not with Devon and our appetizers were gratis. The food was delicious! Rainforest is a very special place for our family as it was the favorite restaurant for our grandson who recently passed away. His sister, our granddaughter, always chooses Rainforest to celebrate her birthday in memory of her brother.

    I had a wonderful experience at Rainforest Café thanks to our waitress, Elena. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. Elena took the time to answer all our questions, offered great recommendations, and made sure our food came out just right. Her positive attitude and warm personality really added to the fun atmosphere. It’s clear she enjoys what she does, and it made our visit that much better. Highly recommend asking for Elena if you dine here — she truly provides top-notch service!
