Food & Shopping at the Elephant Odyssey

Being one of the largest areas of the San Diego Zoo, you're bound to get hungry during your trek through the 7.5 acre, $45-million Elephant Odyssey. Luckily, the designers of this exhibit had the good sense to add a counter service restaurant. The Sabertooth Grill features fresh ingredients from local farms. On the menu, you'll find offerings ranging from wraps and burgers to rice plates and fresh fruit salads. A large dining patio, adorned by sculptures of prehistoric animals, offers a great view of the elephant habitat.

Next door to the Sabertooth Grill is the Tusker's Trunk gift shop, which sells all sorts of elephant-themed merchandise, including hats, clothing, books, stuffed toys, and collectables.
