Casual & welcoming
The Zoo Side Grill was born from a simple idea: serve honest, fire-grilled food in a space where everyone feels welcome. No pretense, no fuss — just great food and good people.
We source from local farms and suppliers whenever we can, because food tastes better when it's fresh. Our grill team works every shift like it's the first time — that's the standard we set for ourselves.
Whether you're grabbing a quick bite after work or settling in for a long dinner with family, we want you to leave satisfied and coming back for more.
From the grill to the glass — here's a peek inside The Zoo Side Grill.

"We brought the whole family for Sunday dinner — the kids loved it, the ribeye was cooked perfectly, and the truffle fries disappeared in minutes."

"Finally, a spot in Springfield that gets it right. The honey-glazed salmon is incredible, and the cocktails are dangerously good. Our new go-to."
