Overall the zoo lights were very pretty. Our 2 year old granddaughter seemed to enjoy them, particularly those geared towards younger children. I thought the water lights show was nice, although short. We only got an ice cream cone so I can't really rate any of the food. I found that it was much smaller than I thought it would be. I was also dissappointed in what I thought were very overpriced tickets. At almost $20 they did not include a photo with Santa or entrance to the Dinosaur Lights. My other main complaint was that most of the lights were not reflective of the season. Even still I am giving a good review. I would suggest you get the groupon though; they were sold out until the January dates so I missed out!
