I had the filet mignon, which came with mashed taters and green beans. It was amazing and our waiter didn’t even get to check on ys before my plate was clean – i just couldn’t get enough I guess! The restaurant space is small but i found it kinda cozy. Waitstaff was excellent. Absolutely we’d eat here again.

My mom and I were impressed by the service and delicious dinner we enjoyed last Friday. We called for reservations about 2 hours before heading in. The lamb shank fell off the bone and the steak diane was perfectly cooked with a fantastic sauce. Great local wine selection and attentive service.

We were excited to go. Have heard about this place for a few months now. We had the fried Gnocchi appetizer, it was INCREDIBLE! The hubby ordered the steak, it was great. I ordered the chicken pasta. That’s unfortunately where I went wrong. I’m sure it’s great for someone else, but not my favorite flavor profile. The server said tossed in olive oil, it wasn’t, it was like soup. He also mentioned olives and capers. I normally would like this, but it was kalamata olives and capers. It was so insanely salty I couldn’t do it! I had 3 or 4 bites and done! It was super pricey for what I had and couldn’t eat it. When I told the server, he told me, “wow that’s a hard position for you to be in.” He didn’t offer to take it off, discount it or even remake it. So that just threw me off. I had high hopes. It was the first dinner I had out in weeks after being sick. So, I was very bummed. The server, until that 1 comment, was very GOOD and helpful! So I think it was just a random situation he didn’t know what to say. The only other thing was out Ceasar salad was pale green almost yellow and super bitter. I’m sure we will try 1 more time. But for 2 ppl about $100, and we had water. No drinks of any kind.

We were from out of town, and we showed up without reservations! They were gracious and offered us the lone table they had available. Jeff and Brian were very attentive, and the food was delicious!! The steak was like butter, and the chicken was very flavorful! It’s definitely a great place to eat!

I wish they allowed more stars to give. The entire experience at Zin Bistro was out of this world. We can’t thank them enough for making our 1 year anniversary dinner so memorable. The food left me speechless, from the appetizers all the way through the chocolate moose we had to cap it off.

This is very small place. Our server was very friendly, the menu was varied as were the specials. Dinner was a bit pricey, but very good. However, word of caution, order your meat more done that you would like as the chef seemed to have a tendency to undercook. I had to send back my Med Filet as it was rare. I saw several plates go back to the kitchen as they were undercooked. However, all in all, the the meal was very good and we enjoyed a nice glass of wine to accompany the meal, but skipped on dessert as we were too full from dinner. I would definitely go again.

We were recommended this restaurant but it was not a good experience for us. We were waiting for menus, water, and just did get bread. We could barely get either of the waiters attention even though they were right by us. Sadly, they were quick and unfriendly when we did get them to come over. They took more time, were friendly, and engaging with their other tables (that were white). I feel our experience would of been better if we were white also. I hate saying that, but the treatment was vastly different and our service was extremely poor. The food was ok, we ordered the lamb but the sides were non existent. We had substituted the mash for rice, but apparently they didn’t want to give us any. We told our waiter soon as he brought the plate out. You could visually see it was only like 5 spoonfuls if that on the plate! He reluctantly bought us a small bowl of rice that only had 2% more rice in the tiny bowl. It was horrible. We could of eaten at any other restaurant and they treated us like we should have. They told all the other customers good bye as they were leaving and we literally walked out without a word from them. In fact, one of the other customers by the door waved as we passed by them so they gave us more warmth and friendliness than the actual staff. The staff had time and put effort in creating a good experience for their other tables but definitely not for us.
Too many other good restaurants to go to here than one that only caters to white people. I am leaving this review so they can do better! Please have good customer service for all your customers and not just the white ones. This is sad that I even have to write in and say this.
