It's not a bad choice if you have six kids with you, since it's kind of noisy and dim and of course serves chicken nuggets and fries. Next time you and the gang are in the neighborhood, you might want to try the Camellia Grill, just steps away from O'Henry's, where you sit at an old-fashioned lunch counter and are served by entertaining, friendly, longtime waiters. It is a real institution in not just the Riverbend but the city. There is also Cooter Brown's for raw oysters and poboys (and pool tables) and while it is a bar, you can bring kids during the day. I'm sure you'll be going to the zoo soon (although we avoid it in summer, in favor of the air-conditioned aquarium) and if you do, you should eat first because the zoo food (ice cream, hot dogs, fries) is truly unexceptional (are you listening, Ron Forman??).
