  • I had the pleasure of dining at Zinc recently on a first date. At first I was a little apprehensive, expecting a hoity toity atmosphere and snobby employees, but I am pleased to agree with other reviewers that that was simply not the case. It was pretty quiet when we arrived around 8pm on a Tuesday, but we were warmly greeted by the hostesses and given a nice little "date table" on their patio. I started with a delicious glass of Sauvignon Blanc; my date had a Pinot Noir. Our server recommended the ahi tuna "steak tartare" appetizer which was absolutely yummy. I was a little sketched out to see it served with rye bread, but somehow all the flavors meshed very well together. After debating between the salmon and the scallops, I went with the latter. I am a huge sucker for scallops *wink wink nudge nudge to any prospective dates ;)* To be honest I'm not even sure what all the pretty sauces and garnishes on my plate were, but I liked it! I know the black sauce was squid ink, after being cautioned by our server that it has a distinct taste that you either like or you don't. I didn't find it to be offensive, and actually dipped one of my lightly breaded shrimp in it. The scallops themselves were very good. I cleaned my plate! (Is that bad first date manners? I couldn't help it!) My date had the flat iron steak which came served with truffle fries. He's a Zinc "regular" and claims the steak is his favorite thing off the menu. I didn't try it, not a huge red meat eater. But I did steal a few fries which were tasty with their house made ketchup. It was a very pleasant dining experience, unfortunately I didn't save room for dessert. Our server was there when we needed her and absent when we didn't. The busboy was prompt with water refills and removing dirty plates. Although Zinc has a heftier price tag than I'd probably pay for myself, I'd go again if asked on a second date!
