Our sons (8 and 6) really love this zoo. There are a great variety of animals that are spread out between indoor and outdoor enclosures. The animals all look well cared for and healthy. This is huge for us. If the animals look pitiful it just isn't right...

There are tons of little shops to look around in and they really aren't too expensive. There are also lots of little food vendors with snacks and drinks along with the restaurants. We always bring our lunch and drinks. You are allowed to bring in a stroller/wagon and we keep our lunch in a backpack, but coolers are also allowed. We have eaten at one of the restaurants. It was ok. They even had a veggie burger. :)

Huge bonus: you don't have to pay for any exhibits.
