Description

Treetops Restaurant, located within the zoo, offers a unique dining experience with a stunning view of lush greenery and playful monkeys. While visitors appreciate the modern setup and gluten-free options, the consistency of food quality is a concern. Diners have noted issues like overcooked burgers, underwhelming fries, and a lack of fresh ingredients. Service quality is mixed; some staff exhibit a positive attitude, while others seem disengaged. Despite its shortcomings, the restaurant shines in ambiance and offers a family-friendly environment, making it a worthwhile stop during a winter visit to the zoo.

Most menu items were priced between $5 and $7, with potato salad costing $4 and chips starting at $2. The kids enjoyed the chicken strips and cheeseburger. My husband and our adult children went for a lot of hot dogs, which they said were decent. The macaroni and cheese was the strange, gummy kind you’d expect from a gas station, though the onion rings were excellent. Unfortunately, no one really liked the fries. However, all the fresh sides—including potato salad, cheese grapes, and desserts—were very good. The restaurant’s layout felt chaotic and unorganized, and there didn’t seem to be anyone in a hurry to assist. Between the four adults and two kids, we spent over a hundred dollars, which wasn’t entirely surprising. I understand how these things tend to add up. Just to note, my son had a burger, three hot dogs, a salad, fries, chips, and a drink, which aren't included in the pictures.

Love how you can see inside the jungle and eat your lunch or dinner there.

All of these reviews should be rated at most 1 star. This restaurant was incredibly disappointing—overpriced and unpleasant. The burgers tasted like they were frozen and pre-packaged, too artificial, and the fries were no better. The drinks were average, but of course, there were no free refills. They also completely messed up our orders. If I could give this place a 0 star rating, I would. It really should be closed down. I cannot recommend anything from this menu. My 11-year-old even ended up getting sick.
