The food was great and the service was very nice and prompt. Atmosphere was nice, with soft music playing was a plus. We have been wanting to come for a while and finally had the chance. Very pleased.

Excellent tasting food. Only complaints are everything is a la carte and I had the worst lemon drop martini ever for $16.

Neat to be in a restaurant within a zoo. I had a great swordfish dish. There was a great singer who did Beatles and other favorites. We sat in a booth from a room with bars, looking into the bar area, giving illusion of being in a cage. Not fancy but great food and service

Average food in a restaurant that doesn’t have ambience. Service was adequate. Noise level was high even with so few customers.
