ZoubiBeautiful atmosphere with average fWe met friends at zombie, as a central spot for both couples. Upon entering we wee so excited with how lovely the the eating area was. We were seated on time and service at first was very good, but went downhill from there. We had to ask for a bread basket upon seeing other tables get one; Alex our waiter looked over our shoulders and seemed disinterested when we placed our order and once the food came no one checked back with. 2 rack of lamb orders were deemed average; my octopus was fair.
We had an overall nice experience but don't expect the food to match the ambience.6/8/2013 12:00:00 AMHad a nice outdoor diningHad a nice outdoor dining experience at Zoubi. Wait staff was excellent! Outdoor area nice, secluded, fun.6/4/2013 12:00:00 AMA New Hope ClassicZoubi's well rounded menu offers a great selection for diners of all palates. Food was prepared to perfection and service was very good. I'd recommend this restaurant for its food and ambience.6/1/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent....AgainHad Chilean Sea Bass - wife had Crabcake. Both dishes were excellent as were our app/soups - onion tart and arugula salad, soft shell crab soup. This was our 5th or 6th time at Zoubi's - always excellent. The chef is a true artist.
Regarding cigarette smoke in the dining room....half the bar is open to the outside where people smoke. We ask to sit in the very front of the dining room to avoid it - though I did smell a "little" smoke in the front this time which I was not happy about. However, if you sit at the table next to the bar you may have smoke blowing right on you depending on the wind. As much as we love Zoubi's I'd probably opt not to eat there if I had no choice but a table next to the bar.5/24/2013 12:00:00 AMAnniversary DinnerWe went to Zoubi for our 12 year anniversary, and it was wonderful. We had to eat early, because of a performance my boyfriend was playing that night, and they were very accomodating about sitting us early and providing timely service. The food was amazing, especially the soft shell crab special. The staff is attentive and friendly.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMFantastic Evening!Wonderful food, wine, service and ambiance!! Last time we dined at Zoubi's we ate on the patio, and it was lovely. However, since it was a chilly evening, we chose to sit inside and were very impressed! It is a very charming and intimate setting. We were a group of six, and everyone loved their meal...especially the amuse bouche and the vichysoisse prepared by the new sous chef, Eddie. He is very talented and creative. We were greeted by their new maitre d, Alex, who also gave us wonderful service!! Then to top off the evening, Andre came by our table with his smiling face and wonderful charm! Just love this place...going back with the family for Mother's Day!!5/5/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful ambience and food!We were a party of six and enjoyed everything - drinks, apps, entrees and desserts! The specialty drinks were great too! Lollipop lamb chops were nice and tender. Also had the endive salad with goat cheese - perfect.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AM
