" I must admit, my visit was disappointing. While the atmosphere was lively and inviting, the food I received was mediocre. My steak was overcooked, and the service was slow. I expected a lot more given the rave reviews. " (*Curated Review*)

" Such a charming place for dinner! This restaurant has a fantastic vibe with good energy flowing through. The rich flavors of their dishes were incredible. Would absolutely recommend their dessert options! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, just wow! Zola + BarZola exceeded all my expectations. The ambiance is chic and lively, exactly what I was looking for! Our meal started with amazing oysters followed by the beef bourguignon which was rich, hearty, and absolutely delicious! Service was prompt and our server even suggested perfect wine pairings. Will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" An enjoyable dining experience but not without flaws. The food was quite tasty, but service felt slow at times. My ribeye wasn’t as tender as I’d liked. The atmosphere kept it lively and fun. Worth another shot! " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, our experience was not what we hoped for. The restaurant was busy and the noise level made it difficult to have a conversation. Our server seemed overwhelmed and it took ages for our food to arrive. When it did, the steak was overcooked. The atmosphere has potential, but service needs much improvement. " (*Curated Review*)

" A delightful spot for a date night! We had the duck confit and the gnocchi, both were exquisite! Our drinks were well-crafted, and the ambiance was perfect for a romantic evening. The service was also very attentive without being intrusive. We can't wait to come back and try more of the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great place but not without its flaws. The ambiance was lovely and the dishes were beautifully presented. However, my steak was tough, which was disappointing for a $72 dish. Service was fine, but our waiter was a little too casual for my taste. I hope to give it another shot with a different dish. " (*Curated Review*)
