| - Been to the airport location of Zinc Brasserie twice. First time was a couple weeks ago. Sat at the bar. Served quickly by the young lady bartender. She was good, witty, very personable. I only had time for a drink and I had the proseco. it was good, light, fruity. Just what I wanted at the time. The espresso martini looked good. WIll have to try next time.
Second time was this afternoon, skipped lunch so i can try their warm dungeness crab crepe, which did not disappoint. Very pretty, very tasty. light by hearty. the peppercorns added some heat. Lots of crab, mushrooms. good portion for 1. Will have again. And now the service...got seated quickly, like the first time, by the requested electric outlet. however the service by the booth was slooow. There were a couple young servers who didn't seem to know what they're doing or what they're supposed to do. just milling around. had to flag one down for a drink as he served the person next to me. Thank goodness a more experienced (i.e. older) server arrived and took charge. after that, she was attentive and got my crepe out quickly.
quick tip, sit by the bar, order the crab and any drink. they're all good.
update: server Michelle was great. almost upsold me to get the beignets and the pudding. Heart set on pudding which was very good. have to love French food. it's rich.
ambience is like an upscale bistro. Tin ceilings and flat screens by the bar.
