"The chicken strips and tots were just right to share with my wife."

"Not bad food not too expensive. But I would recommend it if in a party of more than 2 would be better to bring your own food . And yes you can bring coolers into the zoo, or you can leave to go to your vehicle as long as you get a stamp so you can go back into the zoo."

"Awful, ordered and they disregarded to tell us that there was a wait until after we paid. If we had to wait then I wouldn’t have picked it. Told us it’d be 3 minutes. Ended up waiting over 20 minutes for my loaded tater tots. Which didn’t even end up being loaded."

"The food was great, hot and ready ! It is a bit overpriced but that is to be expected at places like this and the money goes towards the upkeep of our Zoo! My sons and I got 2 orders of chicken tenders, a buffalo chicken sandwich, two orders of fries and 2 large lemonades for $47.00."

"You don't expect much from a zoo restaurant, and what you expect is pretty much what you get. The menu is limited, burgers and hot dogs, but they do offer a vegetarian version with a black bean burger with pepper jack cheese that is pretty good. I had to order mine without the bun due to allergies, and they didn't have any utensils to give me, but I made do. If you just need to grab something to keep the kids from starving, zoo food works. Just don't expect a satisfying delicious meal."
