    The food was excellent. We had filet mignons and house salad with a champagne vinegarette dressing that was delicious.

    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.

    We had a great dinner at Savanna. The foid and service were great. There was someone playing guitar and singing. Loved the zoo vibe. It would be even better in the summer. We will definitely go back.

    Excellent tasting food. Only complaints are everything is a la carte and I had the worst lemon drop martini ever for $16.
    SavannaResponded on December 7, 2024
    Thank you for dining with us and sharing your experience Robert. We elected to craft an a la carte menu so that you as the customer can create the meal that you want. We are sorry to hear your martini did not meet your expectations. We would love the opportunity to make you a drink again and be sure we meet your expectations!

    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.
