   Usually have oysters and steak salad but did pastrami sandwich instead of salad. Most tender pastrami I've ever had. Delicious. Service was great in spite of it being very busy holiday crowd.

   I had a wonderful lunch with friends at Zinc Bistro today, and this place never disappoints. We started with a bottle of rose from Provence followed by the charcuterie board which is a must when you eat here. We ordered the special which was a delicious crab pasta dish. So flavorful. The crab was sweet,tender and plentiful. Bobby, our waiter was very personable and helpful when we were discussing cheese choices with the charcuterie board. We love this restaurant!

   Service was slow. My son received his Coke about 10 mins after we received our cocktails. Our server was very slow & never told us her name.  However, her personality became much Bubblier and friendly as she was closing out our tab and looking forward to her tip. Food was great otherwise w a great ambience.

   Very disappointing and overpriced dining experience from a place we loved in the past. We waited over an hour for our entree'. The salad was spartan with a few lonely greens. The duck was overdone and both meals were mediocre at best. Nutrition is important to me and I had hoped for a few vegetables to accompany my omelette but instead found a large quantity of cold shoe string potatoes. When I asked for a few vegetables instead, I was charged for a small amounts of chopped tomato and cucumber. The service was friendly but not accommodating.

   We sat in the inner courtyard on Christmas Eve. The restaurant was very crowded. However, it was like the waitress completely forgot she had people in the courtyard and spent all her time inside. We literally could not get her attention. I had to complain to a manager and the service was frosty but we got our food finally!

   Visited today with my sister who is from out of town. From the helpful hostess who quickly cleared an outside table for us to Michael, our waitperson, everything was wonderful. Drinks were spot on, appetizers and main entrees were fabulous and cooked perfectly. Food and service have always been consistent here. Whether you come for lunch or dinner, you will not be disappointed. This gem in Kierland Commons is a place we will be returning to often.

   Amazing is all I can say. Zinc is authentic French food and is spectacular. The ambience is soothing and welcoming. My wife and I are frequent visitors to France and love French cuisine. Zinc is the real deal. This was our first visit but certainly not our last. We started with the carrot starter which was beautiful and it only got better from there. My wife had the Provencal Bouillabaisse and I had the Scallops. Both dishes were 5 star worthy. Chef created an amazing taste with both dishes. The service is worthy of 5 stars. Just the right amount of touch points and knowledge. Zinc Bistro is now on our favorite Scottsdale/Phoenix restaurant list. I highly recommend Zinc. You won’t be disappointed. One item missing is the chocolate mousse authentic to France. See photo.

    We are big fans of Zinc Bistro and have been here many times. We enjoy the excellent food, fun ambiance/vibe and usually great service. Last night we had an early dinner reservation for our family in town when the restaurant was not that crowded. We ordered cocktails and then wondered where the waiter went. It took forever to order food and we had to ask a water filler to find our waiter. They never brought oysters we ordered, and then they brought entrees while we were still eating appetizers. Usually we engage with the excellent servers at Zinc but our waiter seemed very harried and non attentive. Finally, my steak was not even hot so it obviously had been waiting to be served and the entrees fired too soon. So we hope this was just an off night and abberation
