This atmosphere at Zinc is strangely casual for what many would consider an expensive, upscale restaurant. The walls are busy, the ceiling is jammed with fans and enough lights for you to question why it's dim inside. There is a rather tacky eiffel tower in the center, but the cuisine of this place isn't very French at all.
The food was good, a bit salty, but good. The spinach and frisee salad was very simple. The egg on top was perfectly poached and the dressing was great.
The cheese selection was good, as was the drinks. Some of the meat was improperly served ( cuts that should not be sliced), but tender.
Overall, a good dinner but overpriced IMO. It was not special or delicious enough to warrant the high price tag.
