    Requested a quiet table in the corner because we were having a lunch meeting. We were seated perfectly AND THEN, despite the restaurant being nearly empty, the same hostess seated a birthday party of six 30-something women RIGHT NEXT TO US when there were plenty of tables that could accommodate that group both on our side of the restaurant and the other side that were not RIGHT NEXT TO US. Logic??? Guest consideration???

    A neighborhood gem. Patrons have 2 options for dining. A cafe side open for breakfast and lunch in a more casual setting with a nice patio with heaters and fans. Delicious offerings of fresh desserts that can be ordered to go or with sit down service along with a gelato station. The bistro side has a different menu, open for lunch and dinner. It's good for a business lunch or for just a more upscale ambiance.

    We had never eaten here before. Our server was very friendly and efficient. The food was delicious, though I would have liked a few more menu options. The seating is very close together and the noise level is quite loud. That is my only negative.

    We went for a birthday dinner with our friend. We had the popper deli, the salmon and the meatloaf. All excellent. We will be back soon.

    It was our anniversary but, it was not a place to go . None of our requests were Acknowledged after we got to the restaurant. It was loud we couldn’t have 1 Conversation. We we’re seated in a very loud section after I informed the hosts That we requested the quiet side . It was not a special dinner so I would NOT Refer anyone to Zov’s for a special quiet event.

    Lamb burger was just okay. It had been many years since I ate here. It will likely be several more before i try again.
