Fodor's Review:

If you loved Forrest, Jenny, Lieutenant Dan, and the others from the movie Forrest Gump, then head to this chain eatery. The food, particularly the shrimp with mango-pineapple salsa, can be surprisingly good. You won't be able to resist the chocolate-chip-cookie sundae. Children who weren't even born when the movie came out in 1994 adore the Gumpisms scrawled on the walls of the indoor dining room and that if you flip the license plate on the table, the server will come back. Young kids love to race the rubber duckies in the mock creek and to get a slushy drink in a glowing plastic cup that is available in the cutsey gift shop.
