Locations

Theme

The idea behind this restaurant is that of a rainforest. Inside you will find a gift shop with all kinds of eco-friendly gifts and clothing. In addition there are saltwater aquariums with tropical fish in them swimming around fake coral. The seating area for the restaurant itself is surrounded by overhanging plants and ferns and stuff, and there is the constant sound of jungle animals being played.

Food

Breakfast Menu

Sort of a southwestern flair on the breakfast menu. Skillets and things like that.

Experiences

25 February 2007

Went here for breakfast with some friends of mine. The first thing I noticed about the place was that the animal sounds being played are entirely too loud, and inhibit conversation. I found myself shouting to some extent in order to be heard. I think they may do this in order to get people in and out as quickly as possible, but in my view this just sucks and doesn't make me want to come back.

I ordered a breakfast pizza with pork, and it was quite good. Towards the end of the meal, as we were settling the check, my pizza was taken from me without my being asked whether or not I was done. She just assumed that since I was paying the check that I was done and the last forlorn little piece of pizza on there was destined for the garbage. This was not something I was all that happy about.
