Big picture windows look out on the savanah (from the ground floor), yet the restaurant manages to still feel enclosed and cozy. The food is just adventurous enough that you felt like you stepped out of your comfort zone, yet familiar enough that everybody could find something they'd like. Plus, the servers were all top notch (though we were there within about a year of its opening, so that may have changed as the staff rotates through)

Sanaa does have the animals just outside the windows. Allears.net has pictures & menus with prices it may help with the decision.
