    The prices are really high. 2 Caesar salads one appetizer and two drinks over$100. Even added 3% health and safety charge

    As usual the service was great, Don our server was excellent. We were not rushed between courses and the food was excellent. The gnocchi with mushroom ragu was something I will order again very soon. Wine Wednesday (1/2 price) is great night to give this restaurant a try. I will be back.

    Dinner was just okay. The Caesar salad was tasteless. There was no garlic or anchovy taste at all. I had to salt it to get a little flavor…The main courses were just okay. The fettuccine and the salmon were pretty blah tasting. But the worst part of the meal was the carrot cake. It was really dry and had very little flavor. One side of the piece appeared to have been exposed to the air too long.. Overall it was not a good meal and I will hesitate to return… I have always enjoyed my meals here but this one was just not great. The 3 stars are for the staff who are very attentive and friendly.

    The Mustard Chicken and Spaghettini were great. The Margarita Pizza was not and not up to Zin Grille’s standards. The staff was gracious and took it back and brought another Spaghettini. It was good. Rarely do I have something go wrong at Zin Grille.

    You know it’s great service when you are never thinking about. Never thought where is my drink, where is my food, where is my waiter, near perfect service with our tall gentleman server. Truly remarkable, also never interrupted important business conversation. Food was also impeccable. Thank you.

    Let me start with the good. Our server Diana was lovely and attentive. She and the restaurant accommodated my error when I mistakenly ordered calamari because I somehow misread it as cauliflower. They took it back graciously and didn’t charge for it. We ordered an arugula citrus salad which was plentiful and refreshing. The rest of the meal was honestly awful. The Margherita pizza was tasteless. The sauce and cheese had no flavor at all and the crispy Brussel sprouts were mushy and also flavorless even though they were drenched in a sauce. The lemon tart was adequate. The filling was decent but the crust wasn’t good. Oh well. We gave it a try.

    Zinfandel Grille - SacramentoResponded on March 16, 2023Hi Gina, thank you for your detailed feedback on your dining experience. We are happy to hear that Diana provided excellent service and that the arugula citrus salad was to your liking. We apologize that the Margherita pizza and crispy Brussels sprouts did not meet your expectations, and we will make sure to address these concerns with our kitchen staff. We appreciate your business and hope to have the opportunity to improve your experience in the future.

    We arrived for our reservation a few minutes late due to traffic. They still sat us immediately, and we were greeted by our server shortly after. He got us water and took our drink orders.The drinks arrived in a timely manner, and that Chai Old Fashion is on point! We were ready to order from the Valentines set menu. Food came to the table with great timing. Sometimes with a set menu on a busy holiday dinner can feel rushed, but it did not feel that way. We both enjoyed our ceasar and kale salads. The Kale salad is amazing. The pork belly and beet apps were great. I had the beets and wow...absolutey delicious and such well balanced flavors. We both ordered the ribeye with broccoli and fingerling potatoes. I originally was going to order the Mahi Mahi and I wished that I would of, only because I know my Fiancee would of shared his steak with me. Steak was a boneless prime cut ribeye, cooked perfect to each of our temp requests, and delicious. The only complaint(which I wouldn't really call a complaint)with this meal was my sides. The broccoli had a weird roasted chemical taste, and to me the potatoes were plain and not seasoned well. We did not bring this to anyone's attention because it was really a small issue in comparison to the overall experience! The desserts were delicious, and just enough to enjoy! The wait staff was great. Our water was never empty, we were offered another drink before the other was finished, and the wine I ordered with my entrée was there just before my entrée hit the table! Super impressed with the wait staffs attention to detail! Not once did a plate that was empty sit in front of me for more than a minute or two!!Thank you for an amazing Valentines Experience! I would definitely dine again!

    We had a wonderful time celebrating a birthday. The staff was extremely accommodating and were wonderful throughout the evening. Food wasn’t my favorite, I had the prawn dish. small things like the polenta which although perfectly creamy, had a strong chicken base flavor that almost overpowered the prawns which should have been the star. The brussel sprouts were cooked well, but overall the dish lacked acid and texture.

    The Oxtail Gnocchi was one of the best meals I've had in a long time! My Dad also really loved his Wild Boar Udon dish. Both seemed very expensive for the amount of food. Unfortunately our birthday guest was disappointed as her requested "very rare" New York was slightly pink. It was one of the most expensive items on the menu!
