ZO.RA FOOD AND WINE RESTAURANT, Lake Wylie, SC. 12/16/25, Since I wrote this review, I have been back many times, including last night and planning to go back tonight. They recently added rainbow trout and it is the finest trout I have eber eaten, as I had it my last 3 visits. If possible ask for Emma, but everyone gives wonderful service. Simply statedl, My Very Favorite Restaurant!!! Now my original review/Recently I made my first visit to ZO.RA (believe named after the owners 2 children) on the recommendations of close friends and I now have returned 5 more times. Zora's food is simply exceptional, extremely well prepared and presented. There is a lot to be said about the saying that "You get what you pay for" and with ZO.RA you truly get a lot. The first night I was there,

Zora Food & Wine is an absolute gem in Lake Wylie! I’ve been several times now, and every visit confirms why it’s one of my favorite local spots. The food is consistently delicious—beautifully prepared, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The atmosphere is small and cozy, perfect for a relaxed dinner or intimate gathering. The service is always top-notch—friendly, attentive, and genuine. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel right at home while still offering a touch of elegance. A true go-to for anyone who appreciates great food, great wine, and a welcoming vibe.

This is a cute little joint with really great service! First time here, I got the shrimp and grits. Grits were fabulous, shrimp was good but had the tails on them (not a big deal), but the andouille sausage was minced and that made it more soupy than I'm used to and not my cup of tea. I didn't realize when ordering that the andouille sausage was the cream sauce. I still ate it all, but not getting it again. My step mom got the salmon and she said it was cooked to perfection! The she crab soup was very good. It's a shame there aren't any vegan options, I cannot take my wife here. Wine selection was very nice. Great addition to Lake Wylie. I need to try other entrees to get a better feel. This is a great spot to relax after the day without kids or pets and grab a nice bite. For couples, for

Oh my goodness the food is so wonderful. We had a large family gathering late in the evening. We ordered a number of different small plates ahead of time and arranged to have them served in 3 courses. Everything was so delicious. The wait staff brought the food out as requested. They offered recommendations for our GF friend. The evening was a steady flow of good food and friends. Reeya helped us arrange everything and took care of us during our stay, even helping out with group pictures. We had cheese plate, hummus and spinach artichoke dip (my favorite). Then came an assortment of flatbreads. Last we had wings, ribs and mac and cheese (the best). Everyone left full and happy. Thanks Zora for a lovely evening.
