I would highly recommend this wonderful and unique venue for any type of event. The facility was wonderful and the food was outstanding! I could not have been any more happy with what was provided and the event coordinator was a great pleasure to work with and was very accommodating to every detail.

Myra is an absolutely amazing! She was there every step of the way. The food for the reception was absolutely delicious, and the Myra and the chef saved my reception on the spot when too many people showed up. The venue is beautiful in every way! If you want something new and unique I highly recommend the El Paso zoo.
