Re: Rainforest Cafe ?

They are nearly identical.

The one at AK is never crowded so that is the one we visit most.

I have never been to the one in DTD, but I like the AK one

Great, thanks for your opinions. We will probably go to the AK one then. With 4 kids the less wait time the better. lol

Re: Rainforest Cafe ?

I haven't went to the DTD one, but had the pleasure of dining at the AK one this past January. I loved it there and will definately return even if it's just for the great bargins on the clothing in the gift shop.

Re: Rainforest Cafe ?

I've never done the AK one, but the DTD one has horrible lines sometimes!!! I've never eaten there without waiting a long, long time.

Re: Rainforest Cafe ?

We have DTD...and it is always PACKED!
The food is okay, we go mainly for the atmosphere!
Looking forward to trying the AK one this trip.

Re: Rainforest Cafe ?

I don't know if there really is much difference in them, but whichever you choose, take some time to shop. They have great bargains there.

Re: Rainforest Cafe ?

I've been to both, and I seem to like the DTD one more....I don't know if there's real reason, but my whole family enjoyed it much more

Re: Rainforest Cafe ?

DH and I HAVE to have at least 1 breakfast and lunch at AK. Never crowed at breakfast but 1 time for lunch the only availabe seats were at the bar. We took them.

Re: Rainforest Cafe ?

We have PS for the one at AK for dinner in April. Can't wait! Probably great atmosphere for taking pictures while dining. Off the track a little here, but FYI, I went on allearsnet.com and printed menus for all of the restaurants we'll be eating at. This way DH and DS can look it over to get a general idea of where and what we'll be eating. Is this taking planning a little to far!!!

Re: Rainforest Cafe ?

I waited in DTD line FOREVER! I saw my friend from back home in line, though, (which is ironic) so I wasnt too bored, and they have cool scenery, but the line was like an hour. I went there at night, though, so lunch may be better. I havent actually been to the Ak one. It may be better.

Re: Rainforest Cafe ?

the lines at DTD are longer. We went during off season, and even had a PS, but got in quicker without it ;)
