Food and service were fantastic. I got the chance to speak with the sommelier regarding what to pair with each of the courses, which was amazing. The food was delicious. I did the classic tasting, which gives you the opportunity to try the chefs specials.

This was my second time at Zinque (first time was at the Century City location) and it did not disappoint. My wife got the moules-frites, I got the provencal short ribs and we shared the olive oil cake. Zinque also has a great happy hour (M-F, 4-6) so definitely keep it in mind if you’re in the area.

Great service. Dinner was nice here though brunches are great. If the dinner items and happy hour offerings appeal to you, I highly suggest Meet in Paris. Brunches as usual have more offerings that appeal to a wider range of tastes and is a safe and far more interesting choice that its competitors. Pro tip: always order your chocolate soufflé when you order dinner for optimal timing! Always a treat. Also a plus, it’s located on the western end of downtown Culver City, where traffic and parking are a bit easier. This especially made for an even more enjoyable experience. (Thank you for a wonderful day, Paris team.)
