What User likes about The Watering Hole- San Diego Zoo Safari Park:
The pulled pork sandwich was loaded with flavorful meat and delicious. It comes with a choice of a garden salad or chips. Plus, you can enjoy watching rhinos and giraffes roam around the savannah! View all feedback.

What User doesn't like about The Watering Hole- San Diego Zoo Safari Park:
Food cold. Server bad. We came here a couple of years ago on our last visit and the food was much better. This time, they seem to have raced to the bottom with poor quality nachos (think Tostitos and cheese whiz). Server forgot about chicken salad and it came 15 minutes after everything else, with stone cold chicken. Great view of the park, but that’s the only good feature of this once-good restaurant.

First time at this restaurant, the food was incredible.

The scenery here is fantastic! Great place to relax and have a great view of the happenings in the park. Food and service was great as well!
