Rainforest Cafe

They do not have a specific gluten free menu, but just tell your server you have an allergy. They will send a chef out to talk to you directly about what to order & how they prepare it. It was really nice to have someone be so helpful since we are new to learning the gluten free life.

Appreciate the manager coming out to confirm my choices (also there is a GF menu even with dessert) but felt like the food wasn't good. I got the sirloin, mashed potatoes and veggies. Steak was super tough and sides were cold . I know they are sister restaurants to T-Rex and prefer that place better. Both take good care of allergies though. The pasta sounded good but I try to avoid dairy too.

I was so confident about them. They took all the right precautions. I loved the food but right after I was as bloated as a barge! I was violently ill. It was the worst I’ve ever been with gluten. I’m so afraid so I will never go back. Ever.

This is such a fun restaurant! It feels like you’re dining in the jungle 🗿🌴🐒🦧🌺🌳The food was really delicious. I told our waitress I was gluten-free and the head chef came out to talk to me about my diet and what I wanted to eat. He made me the chicken sandwich with swiss cheese, lettuce, onion, and tomatoes on a gluten-free bun 🍞 🍔 with a side of fries. They understood my allergy fully and worked with me. Fun drinks too and souvenir cups to collect!

My son had GF pasta. My other son had a grilled chicken sandwich on a GF bun. Both were also able to have French fries in a designated fryer! Overall, great experience for our family!

Although they don’t have a GF menu, the server had the cook come right to our table and he gave us suggestions. He could make most of the items on the menu GF except Mac and cheese because the sauce is prepackaged and has flour in it. They have GF pasta and GF rolls for burgers. Also have dedicated fryer for fries and one for seafood for that allergy. We were very pleased with all the options available.

Amazing service, Disney apparently has a policy that if a member of your party has an allergy a chef will come to your table to discuss your order with you. So flexible and kind. Variety and can do focused. Food order came out separately to avoid cross contamination. Highly recommend

They had a manager take my order and they took all the precautions. They did not have many options so I had a GF pasta. It wasn’t anything special but at least I did not get sick. No appetizers or desserts were GF. The wait was also incredibly long (even with a reservation) around 45 minutes from order to food.

Once we informed our waitress that several members of our party were gluten free and another with dairy/egg allergies she immediately brought the chef out to discuss food options. They were extremely accommodating and we all enjoyed our meals.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Employees were very knowledgeable and friendly. Provided a separate menu for Gluten free. Highly recommend this restaurant!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

If I could give this place a zero or negative, I would. Waited 20 minutes to speak to the chef, we then waited 40 minutes AFTER the rest of our party FINISHED eating to get our "GF" order. Everything was cold, meaning it sat for a while with who knows touching and/or contaminating our food. Needless to say, after spending over 2 hours at our table, we are now eating at D-LUXE BURGERS. Do NOT waste your time or money at Rainforest!

Celiac friendly?

No

They had a gluten free bun!! First restaurant I’ve been to in Florida that had one!! The chef had desperate fryers and THEY HAVE GLUTEN FREE DESSERTS!! 47/10 honestlyyyyy

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Excellent knowledge of allergies and safety My GF pasta was outstanding So many options and personal chef attention

A similar situation to the T-Rex restaurant. The chef will come out and tell you everything that’s safe and what can be modified. They have a GF fryer and GF buns for sandwiches. Just remember to order your fries without seasoning, as the seasoning isn’t safe.

I can’t begin to explain how awesome our experience was. We requested a GF menu and they sent the chef out who walked us through our options. He was wonderful. Has a dedicated fryer. He has 9 fryers. Onion rings not an option here but they were on menu for my burger and he told us he would remove them. Great atmosphere for kids.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Excellent service and food options. Inform your waiter that you have a food allergy and the chef will come out to your table to take your order. They can make pretty much everything gluten free (gf pasta and buns). They will cook your food completely separately and bring it out away from the other food!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I have celiacs and multiple allergies to the point where I almost never eat out. The head chef came out (chef Ortiz) and looked at my allergy list that I brought and discussed with me what he could make. He created the most delicious meal I have had at a restaurant! I didn't get sick and it was such a relief to be able to enjoy a meal with family on vacation!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff seemed very helpful, but that wasn’t enough. Someone dropped the ball and I was sick before I could walk to the bus station.

I wasn't expecting much, but the food was pretty good. My five star rating, though, is based on the service. I told my waiter I had Celiac and he said he'd bring the chef right out. Chef came out and told me to ignore the GF menu and instead tell him what was on the normal menu that looked good to me and he'd tell me how he'd adjust to make it GF. Totally went above and beyond to hook me up. Highly recommend.

We are here multiple times. Every time the waiter/waitress said they were not allowed to take my daughters order(celiac) The chef came out every time and wrote it down. Great service and very friendly.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They have a gluten free menu you just have to ask for it!! Delicious food especially the strawberry shortcake is absolutely phenomenal!

fun atmosphere! great gf food! great staff!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Ordered the soup gluten free, came out with wheat flour noodles and wheat flour garlic bread. The chef did not come out. The manager did not come over. I could have ended up in the hospital, had I trusted them. The service was horrendous. Took 35 min to get my food and just had to wrap it up to go.

Update: Just had a bite of the chicken sandwich that I ordered on an udi's bun, they didn't remove the tendon in the chicken breast so I bit into this enormous hard disgusting thing. I will never in my life go to a rain forest cafe again!

Celiac friendly?

No

Excellent service, the chef actually came to our table and told me that he could pretty much do anything on the menu gluten free except for the natural burger which was a veggie burger so plenty of choices! !

The previous reviews led us to dine here. They do take separate orders for allergies. My daughter was so happy with her GF grilled cheese!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

There is no particular menu, even better, the chef comes out and takes your order personally. GF bread as well👍

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Chef came out to talk to me. They have gluten free buns and they were delicious! I didn't have dessert so not sure if they offer any gf options there. I would go backck.

There is no gluten free menu but they are very understanding. I told my waiter and he asked the head chef to make me a dish which was absolutely outstanding. Great service, great understanding.

Your GF choices in downtown disney, aside from some red meat choices are Tuscan chicken with mashed potatoes, shrimp skewers without butter sauce or rice (mashed potatoes instead) or salmon on top of potatoes with veggie side. French fries can be baked to be gluten free as well.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

What a disappointment! We went here 6 yrs ago, & had the most amazing experience! This time, not so much. They didn't hv half the GF menu they did 6 yrs ago. Almost everything we asked for, they said they couldn't make GF? Tortilla chips? Can't be made GF at Disney? My daughter got a burger on a GF bun, only ate 2 bites. I got a turkey sandwich on GF bread w/ potato chips. It was sub par, & pricey.

Waitress was not knowledgeable on celiac. I had the fish thinking it was the safest thing on the menu. Got sick soon after. Won't be eating there again.

The server and chef were excellent. Very friendly, knowledgeable, and kind. The bar manager was another story. He tried to tell us my 10 year old couldn't have an icee because it contained gluten. I pulled up the Icee website to show him it was gluten free. My daughter gets these all the time and she has Celiac disease. He was very rude and acted as if he knew more about my child's disease than I do. Not only did he sat she couldn't have it, but offered no other options. She was to watch her two sisters drink their icees in their souvenir cups, while she drank diet coke from a regular glass. Needless to say, she got her icee AND the glass. I have absolutely no complaints about the food or server. In that area, 5 stars.

Excellent food! The chef came out to talk to me and discuss possible GF options. Was very knowledgeable about CC.

Great experience! The server asked for one of the chiefs to come out to speak with me in regards to my allergies. He stated what was on the menu for Gluten Free and came back to check in. Great serves and the food was awesome! Defiantly recommend if in Down Town Disney.

The waitstaff was amazing and assured us there is a dedicated dryer for fries and chips. My kids are both celiac and extremely sensitive and didn’t have any issues. There’s also a pasta option, but we didn’t have it.

Fantastic experience! Our server has celiac so he guided me through the menu. The manager came to our table and filled out an allergy ticket for the kitchen. This was the best eating out experience I have had since my diagnosis 2.5 years ago.

I went for dinner. There are a couple of options marked as gluten free at the menu. However they can make sandwiches and hamburgers with a gluten free bun.( Not sure about de seasoning). I ordered the China chicken salad. the staff help me making that one gluten free by removing a couple of ingredients.
