I have been here twice.
The fist time I went with my husband for dinner. It was the first place we dined after moving here from Chicago. As always we started with the oysters which were good quality and delicious. He loved his French Onion Soup as well. I had a special, the Halibut which had a lovely and inventive presentation. The only issue was the seasoning. I do not think it was seasoned at all. My husband had the same issue with the Short Ribs. Maybe the kitchen just missed a step. I do not like things over seasoned but this was bland. The Zinc Valrona Chocolate Souffle was simply amazing. I am not a chocolate lover, except for souffle. It was the perfect exclamation point to our dinner.
I went for lunch with my mother who only eats plain burgers, plain chicken and pasta with marinara. I don't know how she manages to stay thin. We settled on Zinc. I had a grilled chicken sandwich with a lovely arugula and tomato and a light sauce. She of course had a plain burger which she raved about. We split an order of frites, that were crisp and full of flavor. I loved the spicy sauce!
I love the bistro decor and the service was good on both trips. Glad I live close!
