Rainforest Cafe   

The tag line says it all: Rainforest Cafe is "a wild place to shop and eat." This branch, located in Downtown Disney in front of the California Adventure theme park, is a fun spot to take the kids after a day of rides at Disneyland. Tried-and-tested, kids love the giant waterfall and periodic thunder and lightning storms, during which tropical animals begin to move and make noise throughout the restaurant. The primary draw here is the ambience, but there are also Caribbean cocktails and an extensive menu featuring pastas, chops and sandwiches, as well as some more "exotic" dishes like Magambo shrimp pasta and caribe coconut chicken. As you leave, don't forget to check out the shop for items from around the world. That way, you can tell people you visited a rainforest, and have more than just a full stomach to prove it.
