Food is quality of what you would expect in prison. They have a gluten free bun option for the burger they up charge for, but the burger still contains gluten. Asked for a paper food boat (little cardboard tray that they serve some food in) to put ketchup in for the fries. Was told they can NOT give any out, even though we spent around $40 on 3 entree with no drinks. They have what appears to be an experiment going on the the men’s bathroom sink. Lastly, the A/C is barely on in this building, just a little cooler than outside.

They have gluten free buns but don’t tell you the beef patties have gluten in them until you have placed your order (contactless), wait in line to pick up your food and then finally get your food.

Located in the Africa section in the park, with an African name, only food available is garbage American food. Fries were awful—simultaneously mealy, undercooked, and stale as well as unsalted. No trays so you have to carry a bunch of loose items. No mayo. No salt.

The ordering system is a little confusing. You have to wait in one long line just to wait in another long line. I would recommend going when the zoo first opens or is about to close.
Food is what you expect. But the wait is terrible. There’s 4 screens to order on and 2 windows for pick-up. Still takes 30-45min of standing and waiting even on a day when it’s not all that busy at all. Very inefficient system.

The only thing the Omaha Zoo doesn't do exceptionally is the food experience. Please consider taking some lessons from Disney or other zoos on how to take care of guests in these situations. The price, food quality, and service/wait times are just not acceptable for a zoo of this caliber. (Not to mention just complete misses on caring about gluten sensitivities at all)

You have to stand in a huge line just to order, that is expected right? Whats not expected is now you get to start all over waiting in a line to pick up your food! You order from a machine, that isn’t user friendly to get started but once you figure out how to begin to make an order then its easy many of us struggled to get to that point however! Need a few more options as well basically if your kid doesnt want hot dog or hamburger they dont offer chicken nuggets plain they come covered in a spicy asian sauce- could you possibly get just the nuggets - we will never know because you dont get to TALK TO ANYONE until your second long wait line to pick up what you ordered from a machine!
Okay the place to eat at the zoo. Limited food choices, but outdoor seating which you can see the animals while you eat. Also place for inside eating and

When you're starving you'll eat anything but it was ok for over priced park food.

Amazing little place to stop and eat. Whether you buy something there like the GIANT elephant ear pretzel ( definitely share size ) or eat what you brought from home, it's a great shady spot to rest and eat.
Wheelchair accessibility: Their is plenty of open space to maneuver wheelchairs or wagons around.
