   We tried Zia's Social for the first time and the entire experience was terrific. The hosts were friendly and got us seated right away. The place was busy on a Thursday night, which was probably a good sign. The service was great, but the food was even better. Every dish we had exceeded expectations. The roasted brussel sprouts were amazing. They were perfectly roasted and the entire dish perfectly balanced. The texture of the fresh pasta was amazing and the dish, unlike many other restaurants, was seasoned well but not too salty. We also ordered one of the the weekly specials, a braised pork shank over polenta. Again the dish was perfectly seasoned. The meat was exceptionally tender and the polenta was incredible. We will definitely be making Zia's Social one of our regulars for date night.

   The service here was absolutely outstanding! Everyone was very attentive and helpful. They accommodate for kids well. The bottomless Bloody Mary bar was great and a very good deal.

   Unfortunately we had a pretty bad experience here on a Saturday night. The place was full, but mostly with large parties (12-14 people) which I think was the problem. They were severely understaffed from the moment we walked in. The host at the stand was completely overwhelmed and people were pouring out to the street. Once we finally got seated loud waiter came up and greeted us and took our drink order. Drinks came fast and we ordered an app and our entree. That was the last time we saw our waiter for well over an hour. It took 30 min to get our appand then of course 5 min later our entree came out. No one checked on us once for probably 45 min later. No drinks, no water refill, no how is your meal. We finally had to start stacking dishes to have someone anyone notice us. Unfortunately we won’t be returning for a while. Too many parties and too little staff.

    Frustrating to be seated in a plastic tent when you make restaurant reservations
