They make there beverages by hand, their venus dip is like nothing I have tasted... I want to steal the recipe. Wraps are healthy and delicious, but not as filling as I would like. All fair trade coffees, and the service was remarkable... Please go. Go now.
First of all, the two or three people who said this place is terrible need to take a look around and see that everyone else has rated The Raintree very high. Get a clue! it's not fine dining. It does what it does very well. There are not many places like this in Waterloo, and if you did happen to have a bad experience, I hope you'd be wise enough to realize it was a fluke. There is always going to be something on every menu that you don't like, so i would suggest going and trying something different. I love this place and eat there quite often. The desserts are some of my favourite offerings! and they make great soups. Weekends there is usually live entertainment later in the evening..check it out!
My second visit to this little gem of an establishment, the food was hot, delicious,superb, the service was friendly and efficient. Only regret is we didn't have time for desert, no fault of the RainTree.
I am a BIG fan of the Raintree. They make the best veggie burgers around...the only ones I will eat, in fact. And the mermaid wrap, the venus dip, and the caesar salads...to die for! We split the dessert...terrific. The service is always good, with friendly wait staff. Be sure to make a reservation!
This was my first time at the Raintree. It's a cute little place, not fancy, but the atmosphere was cozy and the food was fantastic. The salmon was tender and flavourful, with garlic mashed potatoes and good veggies on the side: asparagus, carrots and broccoli. The chickpea curry was phenomenal - not very spicy, just a warm, tasty curry. The sweet potato and chickpeas just melted. Service was attentive, friendly and helpful. I will definitely be back.
