    We had an amazing dinner for my husband's 60th birthday. It was definitely expensive, but the food and superior service made it worth it for this special day!

    We dined at Zoe’s for about the fourth time. It’s always been excellent. This occasion was for our wedding anniversary and the management at Zoe’s personalized the visit for us, complete with anniversary card signed by the staff and a desert that had a piece of chocolate with Happy Anniversary printed on it. My wife had crab cakes and I had the filet, both of which were fantastic as usual. Regina, a former employee of another restaurant favorite of ours, waited on us which was a special treat. Both the manager and valet took pictures of us for us as we left. The whole experience couldn’t have been better. Thanks Zoe’s for helping to make our special night special!

    We were in for the first time on Friday night and had an awesome experience! Even before we reached the front door, the valet was very friendly and talking up the food and it did not disappoint. Love the little personal touch of cards on the table for special occasions. Our server Regina went above and beyond for us and has mastered the art of telepathy. Not many servers have the 6th sense to know exactly when you need something and appear out of thin air at the perfect time, without being overbearing or making you feel rushed. She was super friendly and had a great sense of humor but hit every step of service perfectly. Regina made us feel at home and cared about without making the experience stuffy (which can be a hard line to balance in fine dining) and she’s an absolute pro! Now onto the food. Yes, the price tag is a little hefty, but you don’t go to Zoe’s expecting to pay McDonald’s prices. Every bite was worth every dollar we paid. We started with the sweet corn and lump crab bisque on special and it was perfect. Sweet but not too sweet, hot but not too hot to dig in immediately, and the perfect portion size to get you excited for more without filling you up. For mains I got the lobster and scallop duo and my boyfriend got the NY Strip. The lobster was perfect without being rubbery, and the scallops were cooked to melt-in-your-mouth perfection. The tortellini was a little sweet for my taste, but balanced out the saltiness of the seafood well. Boyfriend said the steak was “fantastic” and as a man of few words, I know that’s high praise. Finished off the night as any respectable basic white woman does with an espresso martini, and about fell in love with the bartender. As a local, I’m always a little hesitant to journey down to the oceanfront during the summer, but this place is absolutely worth the trip. My only nit pick is that there was no music playing in the dining room area and we could hear other people’s conversations very easily, but overall 10/10

    Overall a very good experience. The staff were all very attentive and responsive, and the food overall was very good to excellent. Outstanding wine/cocktail list and quality. Considering the price point, however, of two filet mignons ordered, one was perfectly prepared but the other was not $50+ quality (fat/gristle, and overcooked); should never have left the kitchen. Also, considering experiences at numerous fine dining restaurants in the DC area and up and down the eastern seaboard, the restaurant policy to not begin preparing any part of the meal (salad/starters included) until after placing an entire order was both unexpected and unwelcome. The staff offered to compensate for the poor filet, but the whole-meal ordering policy appears to be the standard at this establishment. Again, overall a very good experience, and we may come back, sit at the bar next time.
