    We had lunch here to celebrate Valentines Day. We had the Dungeness Crab Salad, fries and 1/2 dozen oysters. We ordered the west coast oysters and they were delicious. The salad was generous, fresh with a light dressing. Very good. The fries were hand cut and fresh out of the hopper when brought to our table. One order was plenty for two of us. Our waiter was attentive and friendly. This was our first visit and we will return. Highly recommend Zinc Bistro.

    Two couples celebrating ones birthday. Our first time there, The other couple had been there and recommended EVO. Large restaurant, was accommodating several groups. Glad we had reservations. We had a table by the windows. We started with 2 appetizers, the Whipped Feta with sliced green apples and the fried Burrata, they were both outstanding. Entrees included the Crispy Lasagna(the top layer had a lovely crunch), Short rib stuffed shells served with a lovely mushroom sauce. And a Bolognese with a meatball. For desert, order the buttercream cake early as they make it to order and they brought out a complimentary slice of their chocolate cake for the birthday boy!! All was tasty and fresh. Will definitely return.

    It’s all in the details! Chef Joey does everything he does well and with style. The decor is on point, keep and eye on the murals - it’s fascinating. Everything we ate and drank was very good, if not great. Great wine list selection, I got the special - gnocchi and mushrooms - and too was excellent. This is definitely one we will return to when we are in town!
