    Okay this is our bad because we came here after Dudley's and already had wine, so we did not actually try what they are known for - that being said, do not come here for dessert. The chocolate soufflé was cold on the inside and served with a strawberry and a half, which was not the fresh mixed berry assortment I was expecting. I'm not sure what the watery chocolate drizzle around the plate was, but it was not a necessary addition. Pretty bummed by this dessert, but again, I got a cake at a wine bar so that's on me! My friends said their sparkling water slapped (once the lil bug was removed from their glass) and the vibes sitting outside were so good! We loved the heat lamps and the free Venice people watching included in some outdoor seating. I'll be back to try the wine next time for sure!!

    Being a wine lover, I always want to try new spots for a nice drink or wine tasting. This spot was perfect for that. There is a nice outdoor seating area where we sat down, and the service was great. We ordered two flights of wine and our server was very knowledgeable, explaining to us all the different wines in detail. It's a great place to catch up with friends and have a relaxing drink, while also enjoying the cozy atmosphere, also close to the beach!

    I love this place. Ava is an amazing server, great vibe, professional service, a gem. Only note is for the kitchen to render the meat on the lamb sandwich and bacon a little better, little too chewy. But obsessed with everything else I've ordered so far. The bacon wrapped dates I tell everyone about they are amazing. Perfect date spot. Highly recommend.

    I don't know why it's taken me so long to leave a review but this is hands down my favorite local wine spot. First, every time I have come here, the staff is super nice and knowledgeable. I've done wine tastings here as well as just stopping in for drinks with friends and each time, it has been great. The inside and outside has a cozy local feel to it. The wines are delicious and everything I have had has an amazing taste to it. Today was the first time I tried their orange wine and it was so refreshing and tasty. On my previous visits, I've had their pizza and charcuterie boards which was as equally delicious as their wines. Today, I came during brunch and while I didn't get to eat there, I loved how they had a grill outside the restaurant where you can see the food being cooked. It smelled so good! Great local spot for friends and family. I highly recommend.

    Nice place for wine and eats. Came here for crypto Monday's event. The Lambwhich was very good and lean. Server and staff are very nice.

    Cute spot for wines, charcuterie, and other dishes. They had a really great wine selection and a flight option to try different options. We loved the charcuterie board as well!

    Came on a Friday night after an early dinner and didn't have to wait for a table. Had two wine flights of four one ounce pours each - one with three whites and one orange, One all red. Not a fan of the orange wine. Ended up getting a glass of Tempranillo- best choice of reds. Didn't enjoy the Bordeaux nor the cab. Lovely set up with a cozy patio and great benches with heat lamps. Didn't try the food yet so will have to be back. Great service from our friendly server, Sarah !

    I love this place and the food is always good . Sadly I went in for lunch today and I was the only person inside the restaurant. I ordered the burger and a glass of Albariño. The general manager Richard was there , he didn't check on me once , never asked how my food was , didn't come by to ask if I wanted another glass of wine... nothing! I even had to get out of my seat to ask for my check! Sadly, the service was so incredibly bad .. I won't be returning! It's really not that hard to care! Did I mention that I was the only one in the restaurant! It's really sad at the lack of care Richard showed me! You've definitely lost a loyal patron!

Don't skip the fries. They're some of the best things I've eaten. I dream about those fries. The Peruvian scallops are dreamy. Very light, very refreshing. The same can be said about the cucumber salad. The standout of the evening was by far the burger. I've been to Dudley Market a handful of times, and I'd yet to try it. I'm so glad that I did. It was probably one of the best burgers I've ever had before. I highly recommend ordering this.

We waited about an hour. The food was delicious though. Almost every item we got was a hit, but the sweet potato dish was a hit and the burger was as advertised. Would recommend going again but maybe not with the wait. The restaurant is tucked away from the boardwalk but it's pretty lively inside and maybe during the warmer months they spill out into the street.

We sat outside on the patio, which is lovely. Fair warning: it IS outdoors. As in, nature-outdoors. A cricket made a cameo on the wall behind us. Totally fine, just good to know! The vibe is lively and buzzy, which is great, though a little noisy for a group of ten that actually wanted to catch up with each other. Service was so-so. Our server checked in occasionally, but when we actually wanted to order another round of drinks, he was nowhere to be found and had to do some significant amount of watching to find him and get his attention. One thing that worked really well: he took orders by seat, which made checkout shockingly painless. Scan the QR code at the table, select your seat, and all your items are right there. Splitting ten ways was easy. Note: if you're paying via Inkind, you can't split by seat but you can enter your specific amount. Food: * LeBowl: My order and I'm absolutely coming back for this. Grains, veggies, and a surprisingly generous portion of chicken on top. Hearty, fresh, and satisfying. * Hummus appetizer: We got two for the table. The menu says it comes with focaccia... the bread was oiled and toasted and delicious, but I wouldn't call it focaccia. No complaints though! * Wine: Picked one blind off the menu, enjoyed it. Easy win. It is a little pricey... but maybe that's just Los Angeles these days. Parking: There is a big lot in the back. I somehow did not know this and parked a block away.

It has a relaxed, European feel with a clean, open layout that works just as well for a morning coffee as it does for an evening glass of wine. It is comfortable, social, and easy to spend a few hours in without feeling rushed. The food is consistently good and well executed. The menu leans toward simple, French-inspired dishes done right rather than anything overly complex. Everything feels fresh, well portioned, and thoughtfully prepared. It is the kind of place where you can order a few items to share and know they will all be solid. The drink selection is another strong point. The wine list is approachable but well curated, and the coffee program holds up for daytime visits. It transitions seamlessly from café to wine bar, which is part of what makes it so versatile. Service is efficient and low-pressure, which fits the overall concept perfectly. Overall, Zinqué is not about being flashy. It is about consistency, atmosphere, and quality across the board. A great go-to spot whether you are meeting friends, working during the day, or having a relaxed dinner.
