Customer Reviews
Absolutely loved my experience at Zinqué. From start to finish, everything felt thoughtful, elevated, and genuinely enjoyable. The prix fixe menu was beautifully curated and offered a great balance of flavors and options, so everyone at the table found something they loved. The starters were perfect for sharing — the salmon nikkei tartare was fresh and bright, the fried artichokes were crispy with just the right amount of richness, and the dips with warm focaccia were dangerously good. For mains, the steak-frites was cooked perfectly and paired well with the sauce options, while the sea bass was light, flavorful, and plated beautifully. The chickpea curry was also a great option for both seafood lovers and vegans at the table. Dessert was the perfect finish. The chocolate mousse was rich
Zinque is one of the places I go for lunch with my friends. The waitors are always super friendly and knowledgeable about their menu. Food is good and their drinks are amazing!! Their cocktails are wine based so we weren’t sure in the begining but we’ll loves their Bloody Mary!! Dog friendly. They offer water and treats. I ordered scrambled eggs with no seasoning for my dog.
While the atmosphere is good, it does not make up for the bad food and terrible service. Atmosphere itself is open, rustic, and has both indoor and outdoor seating right next to the marina. The service is pretty bad as you do not get the exact items you order. Staff also do not seem to care when you try to get this resolved. First of all, do not order the french fries if you are expecting to get the Sriracha mayo dip that is noted in the description of the item. They only give you ketchup. Second, do not order the flourless chocolate cake to go. Once again, the description clearly states that it comes with ice cream, however, this is not provided when you order it to go. Third, the Comte pizzas (mini pizzas) are pretty bad. The zucchini and onion “pizza” is just four small bites. It i
Love the waterfront vibe at Zinqué! The food is tasty and fresh — especially the salads and steak frites. Service is friendly, but can be a bit slow when busy. Perfect spot for a relaxed lunch or dinner.
I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. The food was excellent, served at the perfect temperature and beautifully presented. Our server, Rene, was incredibly attentive and took the time to walk us through the menu and share thoughtful recommendations, which we really appreciated. I had a truly pleasant time and was able to relax and enjoy the moment. I would highly recommend this place and look forward to returning.
