Safari Grill offers a casual dining experience nestled within Blank Park Zoo, perfect for a midday break. 🍔 I enjoyed their juicy cheeseburger paired with a refreshing craft beer, making it a decent choice for lunch.

Though the service was friendly, I did experience a long wait, which was a bit disappointing. However, they have ample seating, including accessible options. If you're visiting, consider packing a picnic; it might save some time. Overall, the vibe is relaxed and it’s a fun spot to recharge between animal exhibits! 🦁🍻
