I am not typically a fan of zoos, but I had a great experience at Houston zoo. We had had a filling, healthy lunch at Macaw Cafe, and then started off to explore the animals. All of the exhibits were clean and well sized for the animals and zoo volunteers/staff were quick to stop the folks who wanted to tease the animals. Great, educational day overall. Parking is DIFFICULT and it was a bit confusing getting to the zoo and past the parks surrounding it, but Houston Zoo is totally worth the effort.
