Restaurants near Beardsley Zoological Gardens

Everything about our dinner was outstanding, from the greeting at the check-in desk through dessert. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and caring. The food is creative and very delicious.

Markle never disappoints great food great atmosphere love this place!!!!

Great drinks great steaks cooked to perfection We go here with the guys every 4-5 months Never had a disappointing meal

The igloo experience is soo worth it! You get the entire igloo to yourself and the heaters inside make it nice and cozy. The waitress (madison) was super friendly and attentive. Drinks and food were both flowing at a steady pace. Would recommend to anyone looking for a fun outdoor experience in the cold weather!

The ambient soundtrack, not heavy metal or rap but I caught Jon Bon Jovi in ther, tells you something about this restaurant’s schizophrenic identity. The menu is almost excessively wide-ranging, from wings to lobster, in an sattempt to appeal to all comers, yet the prices invite a somewhat higher-incomed clientele. The interior is hardscaped, with no sound-absorbing fabric in sight(except the napkins) amidst the poured flooring, floor-to-ceiling windows and granite tabletops. The service was accomodating but slow at obvious transition points in the progression of the meal. Our order: appetizer of calamari was plentiful, oddly(for me) sprinkled with gorgonzola and drizzled with balsamic but delicious; an ahi tuna salad ( beautifully presented) and a clam and bacon flatbread that seemed a bit overdone/crispy. Two proseccos, a glass of pinot grigio and a bill of $120…. I want to try this location on a summer evening when there’s outdoor dining and enough light to enjoy the harborviews. Otherwise, it is not a top choice in several categories
