I stopped by Trattoria ZaZa for brunch on Sunday after church, and overall, I had a really…read moreenjoyable experience. There was a bit of a wait before my order was taken, but honestly, it worked out in my favor because it gave me plenty of time to look over the menu. There were so many tempting options that it was honestly hard to decide! I ultimately chose three items and enjoyed a few bites of each. Ham & Fontina Scone: This was my first time trying a scone, and I was pleasantly surprised. The texture reminded me of a dry biscuit, but the ham added a delicious savory flavor that I really enjoyed. Frittata Plate: The frittata was SO good! It wasn't too dry, and all of the flavors worked really well together. It was served with polenta, which reminded me of really fine grits, along with fruit. After trying it, I realized that one entrée would definitely be enough for me to enjoy on its own. Breakfast 'ZA: This was essentially a breakfast pizza topped with a fried egg, and the egg was such a nice touch. The 'ZA itself was really good, although I think adding something similar to a gravy or sauce would make it a little less dry. Even without it, though, the fried egg really took it to another level. Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso: I decided to try the Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso, which was the barista's pick. This was my first time having a shaken espresso, and I'm so glad I gave it a try! It was refreshing and perfect for a hot day. The inside of Trattoria ZaZa is nice, although it is somewhat small, so I opted to sit outside. It was a very warm day, but the awning provided plenty of shade and made the outdoor seating comfortable. I also appreciated that, even though the restaurant doesn't have traditional table service, someone periodically checked on me to make sure I didn't need anything else. Overall, I had a great brunch experience at Trattoria ZaZa. There were plenty of menu options, the food was flavorful, and I really enjoyed trying a few things that were new to me. I'd definitely be open to coming back and trying more of the menu!

I had the daily special, which was a broken lasagna. Also very, very good. Mixed greens on the side rounded out our table. The pizza looked very good and reminded us of pizza in a shop we love in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. It's walk up service, no ordering from your table, which was fine. The menu has a nice variety. The store is a downtown casual vibe. We probably should've opted for outdoor seating, because the evening was so nice.

Although it was warm, I chose to sit outside and thaw out from being in the office all week. They had a current special for restaurant week and I chose the redfish option. It was delicious! The fish was cooked perfectly and the succotash was fresh and flavorful. I enjoyed how light yet filling the meal was. I chose to take my dessert to go, but it was still presented beautifully in the take out container. Later when I enjoyed it with an afternoon coffee it was amazing! I loved the rich chocolate flavor with the light as air texture. I look forward to going back and trying more of their menu.

I had lunch at Gardens Café by Kathy G and was honestly surprised it wasn't busier. We arrived a…read morelittle before noon and, aside from the staff, we were the only people there. The hostess was very welcoming and seated us at a table with a beautiful view. I really appreciated sitting by the window, where we could look out over the gardens and watch people arrive. The lunch menu was impressive and felt a bit more elevated than your typical lunch spot. There was a nice variety of salads and sandwiches, so it seemed like there was something for just about everyone. My boyfriend and I shared the Summer Tomato Salad, and while the description sounded good, I was completely blown away by what was served. The presentation was absolutely beautiful, with vibrant colors that made it almost too pretty to eat. It looked nothing like I had imagined, and that turned out to be a wonderful surprise because it was absolutely delicious. One thing that really stood out was how much the kitchen seemed to care about the food they were serving. The chef who prepared our salad came to our table to ask what we thought, and we had nothing but compliments. My favorite part of the salad was the fried okra. At first, I thought they were croutons, but when I took a bite, I was pleasantly surprised. The salad was also a generous portion--more than enough for two people to share. In fact, I was so full after the salad that I couldn't even eat my sandwich until later. I ordered the Warm Turkey and Swiss sandwich, and it was excellent. Since I ended up taking it home, I was happy to find that it reheated really well. The fries were also delicious. The only thing that could have made them even better would have been if they were truffle fries! My boyfriend ordered the 8-ounce sirloin burger. I didn't try it myself, but he said it was really good and so large that he had enough left over to take half of it for lunch the next day. I'm already looking forward to coming back. I really want to try the Vegetable Sandwich. Our server mentioned it can be a little messy, but that honestly just makes me want to order it even more. I'll just be sure to ask for extra napkins!

My first time visiting, from the reviews I was very excited to eat here for breakfast. I ordered…read morethe bbb breakfast plate. The grits are not normal grits - which the extra ingredients aren't disclosed on the menu, highly disappointed. Then I ordered scrambled eggs and they put cheese on the inside of the eggs - never asked for that. They took over 15minutes to make fresh eggs and by then I had already completed my meal. It would be nice to see more descriptions on your menu if an item is not standard ingredients instead of a surprise or even to make regular grits too. The waitress Sherlyn was very nice and accommodating with getting those items removed and overall a good waitress with the other things being beyond her control.

I also had their chef's favorite, the Screamin Demon which is a fried chicken sandwich with seasoned fries with ranch. I started with the fries and immediately, the ranch was nice and savory along with the fries being crispy. The sandwich itself was savory but not too overpowering, the fried chicken was crunchy which went well with the rest of the sandwich. Overall, this is a gem for brunch!

I had an incredible pork sandwich and cappuccino while I was here. The back seating area is super cozy and a perfect spot to set up and work. There's even games if you want to bring some friends along! In the front, they have fridges with pans of meals ready to take home and heat up. Notably, on the day I was here, they had some beef stroganoff which looked really good. Also lasagna, soups, salads, wine and beer. If you're not wanting to make dinner, or want to fake something homemade to your house guests, I would totally come pick something up here. They also serve one of the most incredible cheesecakes I've ever had. Nuff said. The staff is incredibly nice, too.

I am so very glad that this restaurant came across something I was looking at recently. I popped on in on a Wednesday to see what I could see. I was pleased. Liver and onions will always put a smile on my face! I love a good meat and two cafeteria vibe. I had fried green tomatoes & turnips. Both sides were outstanding. Now what I did not like what that rice! Way too much butter but I do believe it was still on stand by from breakfast. I really appreciate the nice lady getting it for me so that's really why I didn't refuse it. The service was really nice and friendly by all the staff. I loved my food. I loved the sweet tea ( with lemons). And I looooved the cherry / pineapple cobbler I had to go. It's tastes like nothing I've ever had before. Pricing is reasonable for your typically restaurant of this nature. Cedar house is a family owned business that's been around for years. They are definitely in my lunch rotation now.

Fortunately they did and I got a good size portion of chick and dressing, cranberry sauce, creamed corn and mashed potatoes with brown gravy. I wish I could have gotten less starches but I'm grateful for the pick up nonetheless. What I'm curious about.., Why the use of tumeric in the chicken and dressing? I was born and raised in the Ham so I'm used to the way we normally do it. The look threw me off. It was as if yellow food coloring was used. The chicken was overdone as well. If not for these two, I would have given this a 5 star. But I can't get over the yellow.
