Zees Grill

Love this place, third time here in 3 years and the food and service are impeccable. Interior decor is nothing special but the patio in the summer is a treat.

I had the short ribs and my wife had the Arctic Char. Both were wonderful but the short rib was amazing. Nice place with friendly staff.

Cozy restaurant with rooms and seasonal patio, great for a quiet special occasion. Simple menu, extensive martini list. Finer food with a casual vibe.

Wonderful service and terrific food - john had the Root Beer braised rib and I had the seafood papardelle.

Quality of food was excellent and Laura was the perfect waitress!

Food was delicious, sophisticated, and artfully presented. Service was friendly and attentive. Bauetiful location directly across from the Shaw Festival Theatre. Perfect place for a perfect date night in my books- tasteful dinner and a show!
The short ribs were incredible and a generous portion- my husband had to finish mine (he was pleased to help). The Artic Char was terrific too.
I love a cheese plate, and this one did not disappoint.

It's a great place to eat, the food is outstanding! Great service and outstanding value compared to other restaurants in NOTL. I had the short ribs, fall of the bone tender and lots of flavour huge portion. You won't leave there hungry. Chef Matt Tattrie has nailed it at Zees, I highly recommend it!

Zee’s is a favorite when we are in Niagara-on-the-Lake. Just consistently good food, nice staff and relaxed atmosphere.

Menu limited but extremely yummy. The mashed potatoes with double-smoked bacon were to die for.

We thoroughly enjoyed our traditional Christmas dinner all prepared & presented with a twist. The best mashed potatoes ever! And wow cranberry sauce! Cranberry orange amaretto cocktail was like being in a candy shop.
Excellent service, waiter Jay, all done with a sense of humour.
We will hope to return prior to next Christmas.

The food was incredible!! Great presentation. Waiter was very friendly and attentive. Great location for taking a walk throughout Niagara on the Lake. This was our first time visiting Zees and we will definitely go again. Thank you for making our Christmas dinner a memorable one!

Absolutely love Zees! The food is always perfect and a cut above the rest.

Excellent menu. Flawless service. Beautiful decor.

Service lacked considering the price of food

We were here with friends on a weekend get away. Our meal was included as part of a promotional hotel rate and we ordered off a special menu which included 3 courses. We did not expect the value we received as this was after all a reduced price! The meal was beautifully presented, the portion sizes VERY generous and it was delicious. The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere was quiet, elegant and relaxed. We would definitely return for another visit.

The server was the worst.

We arrived earlier for our table and it was no problem, the waitress took us straight in. It was fairly busy however the room was warm and like the waitress very welcoming.
The service was very efficient and the food was equally as good coming to the table in good time and very hot too.
As always a great visit to Zees.

First time there, would not go back. Four people three meals were fine. The fourth which was supposed to be short ribs was not that cut of meat. It looked like two huge bones that you would give your dog. My husband said it was very grissley and lacked flavour.

We enjoyed our dinner very much. The waiter was timely and attentive, the food was hot, fresh and delicious. Would highly recommend.

Laura was an amazing server. She was knowledgeable about her menu and an amazing young woman. Zees has an outstanding menu and there was nothing we did not enjoy. We love food and we love Zees. We are just sorry that our chef was not able to make an appearance but that is not a criticism. We WILL be back.

Excellent food and we had a great server (John) . I enjoyed the chicken and hubby had short ribs

Our dinner was fabulous! Wonderful options are available for every taste. We devoured the surf and turf as well as the rootbeer-braised short ribs! Heavenly flavours and great service. Always a highlight of our trip to the region. Our fireplace table was prefect for a drizzly Saturday night too!

We went for Fabulicious it was amazing everything was full of flavour and presented very nicely. The staff was very friendly from the host to our server Joe. The whole experience made for a great night out with friends.

3 of us were there for lunch.
2 of us enjoyed our meals - Caesar salad one of best I've had. The burger was very good. I enjoyed the chicken/roasted vegetable wrap but my wife didn't - not enough chicken. Her squash soup was very thin and too peppery - pepper was all she tasted- not what she'd expected.
I'm not impressed with the Fabulicious lunch when only 2 courses are included. Found this lunch overpriced when we added dessert. I certainly would not object to raising the 25 dollar price and include dessert.
We've been to Zee's before and enjoyed our meals. After the meal this time not sure if we'd return. We were there the last day of Fabulicious and maybe that was the problem. Service was excellent.

FOOD WAS EXCELLENT,STAFF AMAZING,MY ONLY NEGATIVE COMMENT IS THE NOISE LEVEL AS THE RESTAURANT WAS FULL AND A BIT HARD TO CONVERSE, OTHERWISE I WILL CERTAINLY RETURN.

Delicious. Love Zee’s. Been going for years and they never disappoint

This restaurant had pretty good food, but the overall feeling was impersonal. The dining area is just one big room with tables crammed in. We were right next to another couple which was a little awkward. The noise level was loud with a lot of echo. I prefer a more intimate, quiet setting for a nice dinner.

My daughter and I enjoyed the food, excellent service and ambience during our evening at Zees.

Arrived for a two pm reservation with two 90 year olds. Waitress rushed us to order immediately as kitchen had closed and was keeping it open for our order. Wish we had known it would be rushed prior.

What else to say. Everything was amazyfrim food, service, ambiave !!!! All amazing will definitely go back when I am in Niagra on the Lake

This restaurant was recommended to us. We enjoyed our dishes, I had the arctic char and my husband had the beef short rib. The portions were very plentiful. The food was delicious and the staff were really helpful and very good.

We thoroughly enjoyed our pre-theatre lunch at Zee's Grill. The meal was very tasty and nicely presented. I appreciated the small size of the dining room, which felt intimate and was not too noisy. The fireplace gave a lovely ambiance on a fall day.

Food was good but I told the server BEFORE we ordered that I had a $50 food credit, she seemed a little confused but didn't say anything else. Then AFTER we were done with our meal, the manager came over and said the $50 only applied for dinner. That's fine but it would have been better if they told us that before ordering so we could have decided if we even wanted to stay there for breakfast considering the food credit didn't apply.

We visited For lunch before a play at the Shaw. This was the best part of the visit as it is located just across the street from the theatre.

We had reviewed the menu on line. The menu given to us was the same. Obviously they keep their web site current, a good thing (too many don’t).

After finalizing our selection we ordered glasses of wine. The Cab Franc was quite tasty but the sparkling was vey flat which detracted from the taste. The portion size was more than acceptable and lasted through a leisurely paced lunch.

We had 2 appetizers, calimari and soup. As with the wine, the portions were good. The soup was very hot and tasty. Unfortunately the calimari, while quite tasty, was on the chewy side.

For an entree we split the cheese board. Everything was very enjoyable. The only comment I have is that there were a lot of crackers. Reducing the quantity of these and perhaps adding a third cheese or additional meat would have greatLy enhanced our enjoyment.

The restaurant was cold, so cold overcoats we required. Otherwise the experience was acceptable and quick fitting in with our theatre experience well.

Zee's is our go to before shows at the Shaw Festival. It never disappoints, and has some of the best servers we find anywhere, always friendly and prompt. The food is varied and tasty, and a great wine selection.

Good food, good service as always. Would have liked to sit on the terrace but was full. Décor inside is ok but not great. Noise level was very good

Meals were great nice presentation lots of flavour. Would definitely go again

Second time having dinner there, and both times were fantastic.

I was recommended this restaurant by a friend as I wanted somewhere special to go while visiting Niagra falls for my mum's 60th birthday and it did not disappoint! The food was delicious and the service was excellent. It also happened to be my Dad's birthday on the day we went and they were very good at making my parents feel special for their birthdays.

Great location for a pre-theatre lunch. Good service and menu. Our fourth visit to Zees this summer & fall. Enjoy the verandah and patio setting, and parking at the Shaw Club.
