I was invited to Zepplin by a friend to meet up for a "girls night". This place is definitely a little hidden. I actually even got the entrance confused with the place next door (some burger place). It doesn't seem that the burger place and Zeppelin (which seems to be a little bit more higher end) should be as close together as they are. However I do like the outdoor set up (lots of loungers/couches). The burger place next door has picnic tables with umbrellas. I'm sure duing the summer this will be a great hangout spot.
The restaurant is really quaint. not as large as it appears online but really cute. The food is served Tapas style which I wasn't all for...until I actually ate. OMG!!! The food here is THE BOMB!!!! As a table, we decided to just order a few small plates and share (that was our servers suggestion). We ordered the scratch buns, kettle fried chicken, hush puppies,scallops, and Rictota Gnocchi. In my opinion ALL the food was good. However as a group we felt the Notorious P.I.G. puppies, Fried Chicken and Scallops were our favorite! The food is very well seasoned! Definitely order just a few items for a group. You can always decide later if you want more, and the food comes out pretty quick (which makes sense since the menu is so limited).
To drink I ordered the Paloma De La Parrilla. It was good. A little too bitter for my taste but I did ask for something not sweet and this was the recommendation. It has salt on the outside of the glass which is cool. I would have preferred sugar. I will probably order it again and get the sugar on the outside instead. I only needed one drink as that 1 did the trick! Everyone agreed the drinks were great!
Our server was really sweet and offered great suggestions on how the food should come out.
This place gets 5 stars not just because the food was good but because the music was ON POINT!!! They seemed to play mostly hip hop and R&B which I LOVED. It was mostly 90s and 00's music and I was jamming the whole night! I also appreciated the restaurant wasn't super packed and the music wasn't too loud. It was just right.
There's a parking lot they share with the burger place that I was able to park in. There is off street parking as well.
I DEFINITELY will be returning to Zepplin. I can't wait to have another girls night or even bring my husband back.
