When we chose to make a lunch reservation at the San Angel Inn Restaurante at the Mexico pavilion in EPCOT, we had no idea that it was such a controversial choice!

Nov 18 Why We Love the Rainforest Cafe

At between $25-$40 per person, it’s not a cheap eat if you’re interested in delectable cuisine, nor is it an ideal spot to grab a quick, hurried bite and get back to the park. But the ‘Rainforest Cafe’ is a great experience that is worth making time for if you or your little ones are at all tickled by animatronics, dark ride effects, water features or extravagant theming, and can carve out the time to appreciate all of the above while you eat!
