Why on earth would you pay a similar price (perhaps a tiny tiny less) to eat ordinary when you could have seriously great food. I traveled an extra 10 mins and paid an extra $10 and got a 100000 times better meal and experience. #dontsettleforless

We love Zsa’s. Last night’s menu -although a little confusing - included some gems especially the blue cheese oysters and marlin. Sweets, as always, we’re delicious.
