| - Ahhh, the Rainforest Cafe. It used to be so awesome when it was it's own company way back when, but once it was sold to Landry's, it seemed to just go down hill. The food quality went down and the prices went up.
The interior of the restaurant is pretty cool though and why it got an extra star from me. It has a replica of the sky with shooting stars, a waterfall, huge trees, and different animals that come to life every so often. If you have kids, it is a really fun place to take them at least once. Warning though, some animals are really loud and can scare kids if you are sitting super close, especially the gorillas. Keep that in mind if you have skiddish kids.
The service is pretty all over the place as well. I have been a couple of times because out of town people always want to go here (UGH!). Sometimes you get amazing service and sometimes it is simply atrocious! Though I have bad luck with servers, so this is everywhere nowadays.
The food is hit or miss as well. Some things are great like the pasta and the appetizers. And some things are just blah, like the seafood and steaks. And of course everything is very pricy for what you actually get.
So if you have kids, take them once for fun, but don't set your bar too high.
