Mai Thai’s Market
Client: Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden
Project Location: Cincinnati, OH
Completed: 2020
Mai Thai’s Market is the newest restaurant at the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden. It transformed a former gift shop and 4D theater into indoor dining that extends The Grove, the zoo’s popular mobile food area. Guests can order food, coffee, and ice cream at several counters. A large central communal dining table hosts demonstrations and animal encounters. Reclaimed red oak is used throughout to create a warm, inviting atmosphere.
