1 review 22 hours ago…read moreI love this dreamy place that is right out of a film set. The food and setting are peerless. What I don't like and never will get used to is the rude and snotty maitre d or host or reservationist or whoever handles the front end making a reservation. He is like the worst NYC hipster entitled "you are lucky to be spending your money here" hosts and waiters all rolled into one ridiculously surly middle aged teenager. I recently called to make a res and was told not only "not a chance" before I said dates, but was told a few times during the 3 minute call that "M'am if you haven't noticed, we are in the middle of a global pandemic." Really?! Even the best restaurant on the planet (and this ones close) doesn't warrant a shitty attitude. Not even during a global pandemic! Frankly I'm sick of this attitude and needed to get it off my chest. Sure, we are lucky to have an opportunity to eat there, but the restaurant is lucky to keep loyal customers. Not everyone is turned on by being treated like they're in Brooklyn at a coveted restaurant.

I ordered fish tacos for $24 which came out cold and literally had two pieces of fish with nothing else. I should've known better than to order tacos in Western mass! I sent that back and got a grain bowl and said which was as bland as bland could be. The charming decor and music of this place might be great if you're going for a show or drink, but the food is pretty awful. Which things have been worse is that I went very much out of my way to go here and was extremely disappointed.

This is a very unique & special setting, a reservation is a must and they will call to cancel for inclement weather as there is no indoor alternative here. Here, it is as if you are in someone's private yard, with acoustic music, and the host grilling patio side under a fading sky. Full bar, cocktails reasonably priced & well made. Staff is lovely( it was obvious though that there are many management hands in this venture). We were fortunate to catch David Reed here, who was amazing. There are 2 seatings , we arrived in time to grab a lakeside table, a small clearing that allows a nice lake & sunset view. Small but delicious & well executed menu. You are not necessarily heading here for the food per se, but the entire ambiance. They prepare all food on the patio, therefore the menu must be accommodating to the space. There are enough choices & everything was delicious. Plenty of choices !! Make a reservation, keep an eye on the weather and enjoy this little treasure.

Our entrees were also delicious. I got the Atlantic salmon on a salad. It was cooked perfectly. Then for dessert we got the salted Carmel cake, the layered chocolate cake, and the carrot cake. They each hit the spot. Thank you to Eliza and Kurt for welcoming us and giving us great service. So glad this place is here, will be back for sure.

So it was with mild trepidation that I ordered the $26.'n change Prime Rib one Saturday at Zinky's, a Pub in Dalton. Just east of Pittsfield in the Berkshires. Apprehension misplaced. The place nailed me with a perfectly marbled medium rare prime cut. Baked potato and buttered and fresh string Beans. Lot of food, true, but so delicious and a fine slab of beef. I told my wait person it was as good as any I've had in Chicago or NYC -- everywhere. It is a pub. But pub grub this is not. Some sour cream and butter for that tater (NOT undercooked as found so often in today's casual dining world.) For real. For certain. For under $30.

Everyone orders Coleslaw, I order the fish and chips which comes with coleslaw. Everyone gets a good size amount but me . I get the little cup of coleslaw , it's not considered a side they say !
