Small restaurant packed with an amazing menu, and cold beer. We give Mt Zion a flavor profile that you do not get in any other restaurant in town.

    The pretzel was amazing! My espresso martini was so strong. I got a ponyshoe that was deliciously yummy. Service was top notch.

    We love this place. Good food & cocktails. Only knock is that they have flimsy paper napkins for gourmet food.

    Good Service. Good cocktail. Pretzel app was yummy. We all 3 had meals with burgers involved (2 burgers, 1 horseshoe) and all of the burgers were burnt. They had a crunchy, bitter exterior that was not pleasant. Not sure if this is how they do burgers, or if someone wasn't paying attention, but either way, it was not good.

    So there were four of us in our party. Three got wraps, all of which were rather dry & tasteless. The fourth got a burger and it was great. However, two of us got side salads, had to come directly home and were sick to our stomach. The service was awful…empty water glasses for most of our meal. Finally flagged down another server who filled our glasses. Have eaten here several times and quality has steadily declined. Really wanted to support a local small business but doubt we will return.
