Zinc Valrhona Chocolate Souffle
Laura M.

If you're looking for a go-to spot for French cuisine, Zinc Bistro never disappoints. It's easily one of our favorites. We recently enjoyed a leisurely lunch on the patio by the fountain, and the ambiance was absolutely perfect, relaxed and charming. We shared a cheese board, mussels, Zinc's house fries, and a crisp white wine, everything was delicious. We didn't feel rushed at all, which made it the perfect "lazy lunch" experience. Such a lovely day!

Menu - November 2025
Diele K.

In November, my niece was officially adopted and we wanted to celebrate, so my besties suggested this place. They had been before on Valentine's Day, and remarked that they were accommodating for having a little one in tow. Now they have two little ones (fostering to adopt). We made reservations to ensure we could get a table on a Friday night, and grateful they sat us on the patio as we had two under two dining with us. Our server was Frankie, and was very friendly with the kids. Though, we had mentioned that we were celebrating the oldest being officially adopted but that was not acknowledged. We didn't expect anything more than a congratulations, but that small effort would have been nice as the champagne we ordered was opened/delivered. The patio and interior is very beautiful with a French ambiance and charm. We ordered both wine with the Dinner for Two (Steak Dinner), and cocktails as a night cap with dessert. Additionally, we ordered the five fromages as I will always order cheese if dining somewhere that offers quality cheese. I'm glad they could accommodate a nut allergy. I thought it was a bit pricey in comparison to other cheese plates I've had as for $40 you usually more accompaniments or even larger slices of cheese. The Dinner for Two was delicious, though a bit more cooked than I'd like for medium rare. The flavor was there and the sides were delightful, so I definitely enjoyed it despite the overcook. I even enjoyed a friend's tuna tartare, which was a first time trying for me. Lastly, to end on a sweet note, the Dinner for Two comes with Zinc Soufflé. This was easily in my top five for best soufflé that I've had. Incredibly rich and indulgent! A definite item I'd order every time dining here, and I think the perfect size to share. The food alone will bring me back here, though I would prefer without the kiddos as it didn't feel like the most welcoming place for them. If there isn't a kid's menu, Auntie D is going to politely ask to pick another place. Though to celebrate the successful adoption of my niece, this place was an excellent choice! From sitting down to paying our check, three hours have passed so I would definitely plan when you have no other plans. I foresee this being a lovely spot to celebrate an adult birthday, anniversary, job promotion, or another special occasion when you want to leisurely take in the moment.

Our favorite booth, number 10
Joe F.

My wife and I have been coming to Zinc Bistro for more than 10 years and it's where we like to celebrate our Wedding Anniversary. Every time we come in the staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. We always book a couple of weeks in advance to secure our favorite corner booth which offers privacy and a great view of the Eiffel Tower. Aside from the great service and romantic ambiance, Zinc's food is superb! Admittedly, we have our favorites and we always start with a dozen Oysters and usually go with the server's recommendation. This time we added a caviar bump, which took this delectable appetizer to another level. For our main course, we both prefer a filet with the au poivre sauce and seared foie gras. For dessert, we indulged in the chocolate souffle. This is without a doubt one of our favorite meals and something we look forward to every year.

Zinc Burger, Bacon Blue Cheese or Truffled Gruyere*
Emily S.

Zinc bistro came highly recommended by one of the chefs at Sur La Table. We were in the neighborhood and decided to try it. I wasn't very impressed by the menu but we decided to split the burger and the beet salad. With one drink and a side of fries, the bill was already almost at $100. For a burger and a salad. For lunch. I'm more than happy to pay top prices for top quality meals but this didn't really hit the mark. The burger was very average and lacked flavor. I didn't taste the truffle Gruyère at all and was most looking forward to this profile. The beef tomato advertised on the menu was cut very uneven and my half had only a sliver. The beet salad was so heavily dressed I couldn't even eat it. The fries tasted like something that came frozen that they sprinkled with a pinch of chunky Parmesan. I tried their Silver Charm mocktail, asking our server first if it was very sweet, to which she replied that it was not. I had to send it back because it was sickeningly sweet. When I told her it was too sweet, she made a comment about me being too sweet. I wasn't sure if she was trying to bring light/humor to the situation or rebuttal with sarcasm. Either way, I felt kind of uncomfortable. I don't think I would return to Zinc Bistro as I have found better French food if higher quality and more reasonable pricing at other places in town.

I really, really like Zinc Bistro. The decor has that French bistro feel, with fringe edged velvet curtains and globe lighting fixtures. There is a sparkle Eiffel Tower in the middle of the dining room, a couple of lovely patios. There is also a full bar, Anna's plenty of bar seating. The menu is, of course, French. There were so many good choices that if made it difficult to choose. Almost immediately, someone brought a basket of bread and butter. I ordered my regular go-to, an Amaretto Sour, and hubby got an Amstel Light. For dinner we ordered: *Ahi Tuna Steak Bordelaise with spiced peppercorn crust, bok choy, parsley, black truffle, and Bone marrow bordelaise *Cassoulet Toulousaine-- confit duck leg & thigh, white beans, foie sausage, pâté maison & fermented honey glaze *Zinc Valrhona Chocolate Souffle with chocolate sauce Everything was so delicious. The crust on the ahi was to die for, with just the perfect amount of kick. You can't find cassoulet too many places in the area, but if the cassoulet I have found, this was the best--so good! The service was perfect. Our server was so friendly and attentive. Even the man who fills the water was very nice. When he boxed up my dinner, he included fresh bread. This place is perfect dates night place, so if you have a "first date" coming up, go to Zinc Bistro and your date will love it! This place is in Kierland Commons, do parking can be a little difficult. Factor that in when you have a reservation.

Inside, at Brunch!
Dee B.

We had an absolutely wonderful birthday brunch with amazing service, very attentive service, and absolutely delicious food! Having traveled to Paris several times, this is an authentic experience. The lunch crowd can be a bit loud, but it's because large groups of friends gathered. Don't miss the pistachio croissant as it is absolutely dreamy! I had the Croque monsieur and it was spot on! Husband had the omelette which was made with Greer cheese and Bechel and ham and was so good! They have a great variety of cocktails and wines and we wish we could've experienced the bread service but we splurged enough in the car area! Highly recommended!

Cameo L.

Rich with flavor and want a great date night? This is the place! The beef short rib was so tender that I didn't need a knife! The mashed potatoes were creamy and salted perfectly. The steak and frites were cooked perfectly! The steak was amazing and the thin crispy fries were my favorite! Can't wait to go back!

One of my favorite go-to places for a leisurely lunch. Seared fois gras is a special treat here in the middle of the desert, and their moules frites ee so fresh that they remind me of home (Seattle). Service is always wonderful and the ambiance is fitting for a French bistro... comfortable and lively.

Zinc Valrhona Chocolate Souffle
Nicholas P.

Went here for a friends birthday and it was wonderful. Ate on the early side but thankfully we had a reservation as it filled up quickly. The inside was spacious and we did not feel as though we were sitting on top of other tables around us. Our server was very good and explained the menu and specials quickly and took our drink orders. I went with the Manhattan. It was really good. For my meal I went with the steak frites and it was delicious! Steak was cooked well and paired well with the sauce. There were also a lot of fries that came with it. I also tried the braised beef cheeks and they were excellent! For dessert we split the chocolate souffle. It was really good, but too much for one person, so glad we split it. Overall great meal and experience. We will be back again in the not too distant future.

Steak tartare
Hugh N.

Overall, we enjoyed our dining experience. A party of 4 for a special birthday dinner and seated in the courtyard, which was a nice outdoor table setting. Susan was super nice and informative. The food was good as usual. The wine, champagne, and martini were excellent as expected. We had a feast and enjoyed it! We ordered onion soup, Prime Flat Iron, Pinot Braised Beef, roasted beet salad, steak tartare, Ahi Tuna Steak Bordelaise, seared Hudson Valley Foie Gras, Pâté Maison, Haricots Verts., and the birthday chocolate dessert was on the house. Thank you, Susan! We wished we received better service. We felt rushed throughout the dining experience. We have been here a few times, individually, and together (each one of us four). This time was a bit different, so we want to bring this up to management's attention. We learned that there was a large party going on. We wanted to be understanding; however, we were also paying customers. Susan and other staff looked overwhelmed. Our empty plates from appetizers sat for a long while, as many staff members passed by, including a lady manager. My main course came out about 25 minutes before the others. We waited for all entrees to be served at the same time. The staff brought us two glasses of wine, which was nice and efficient. She took the empty champagne flutes away and also cleared other clutter from the table. There were many staff members, but they didn't seem well coordinated. A staff delivered a Tuna Tartare to our table, and we did not accept it since we didn't order that -- we ordered Tuna Steak. These are just our observations; we have always enjoyed this place. We hope next time will be a better service experience to complete the package. Cheers!

Always amazing! Great oyster program. Love the Shrimp Cocktail. Exceptional Omelet. Wife loved her Burger. Great vibe, excellent food, friendly and professional service. Love the patio seating. Will be back!

We had a really nice experience here at Zinc Bistro. Zinc Bistro is located at Kierland Commons and makes you feel like you are eating at a romantic sidewalk cafe in Paris. They even have an Eiffel Tower display inside of the restaurant. I booked a reservation for two and we were given a basket of French bread and butter to start off with. Zinc Bistro provides a nice setting for conversation. I was on a first date and it was the perfect place to get to know someone while enjoying delicious food. The food was really good and so was the service. Zinc Bistro brings shellfish daily that includes oysters, clams, mussels and lobster. My date is a big oyster fan and really enjoyed the oysters here. I got the Herbed Potato Gnocchi as my entrée. Overall, we had a nice time drinking wine while enjoying the ambiance here at Zinc Bistro. The pricing was very reasonable for the level of the experience.

Ashley D.

Cute little French Bistro that is not so little. We just had apps and salad and it was delicious. My husband had the little bitch oysters and they were fresh and delicious. I had the seared Foie gras and it was amazing. Pricy as expected but a nice meal. The service was great. Next time I will try the steak Fritz but we are having a big dinner tonight so keeping it light for lunch.

Enjoying our lunch

I saw a sign that says only long sleeve shirts for men- did I read that correctly?

How much is corkage?

Hi Jaimie! Great question. Arizona state law prohibits outside alcohol—including wine—from being brought into the restaurant, even with a corkage fee.This isn’t just a Zinc policy—it applies to all licensed restaurants in Arizona who hold a liquor… 

Is zinc open on Sunday?

Yes, for brunch, lunch and dinner.

Is brunch offered on Saturdays?

Where things really took a turn was the food. I was so hoping I found a new staple in our walkable restaurants list but the food was mostly disappointing. We liked our fairly standard French onion soup and Caesar salad. The shrimp cocktail were not good at all. Shrimp was tough and mealy. They marinate them with a bunch of herbs. Maybe that caused the unpleasant texture? On top of that, I did not like the herbs used in the marinade. Good shrimp cocktail stands on its own! I should also add that these were $7/each. A week later I had the most amazing shrimp cocktail - tender and sweet and almost double the size for $4/each. I don't mind paying $7. I've paid $13 each for good shrimp cocktail. Just a lot of money to spend on something so disappointing. Our sea bass was also tough. Flavor was okay. The piece was fairly thin - possibly why it was overcooked? For those who love sea bass, I suggest checking it out at SumoMaya or Dominick's. Can't be beat! Sadly, I don't think we'll be back. Too many other excellent options nearby.

My wife is from Boston and I'm from San Francisco, we moved here from New Zealand and truly appreciate and enjoy fresh, well-prepared seafood Chula has certainly filled that bill! We went there this evening for a casual early Friday dinner. If you've been there before you know that guests stood in line in front of the refrigerated counter showcasing their fresh seafood selections and placed your order at the end of the counter - if you had guests, if you were like me, I firmly advised them to know what they wanted when we hit the order counter. This evening was entirely different; I arrived before my wife and was greeted by a host from a stand halfway between the front door and the refrigerated case. Tiffany greeted me and asked how many in my party and said she would seat me. I asked, don't we order at the counter? She said, no, tonight is the first night we are trying full table service. What a great change! Chelsea was our server, we ordered drinks and had time to look at the menu. Far more relaxing! Arriving just before 5 pm, we enjoyed happy hour prices for our beverages, and I ordered fresh northwest coast oysters as an appetizer at $1 less per oyster during happy hour. They were fantastic, tasting of the briny pacific ocean, plump and properly served with mignonette. The servers and assistants were all attentive and each advised that table service was new, so they were testing it. Our dinners were well prepared and delicious, I had one of the best salmon filets I've been served, grilled to perfection and served with my request for lemon butter only. When presented the check, I asked about inputting my phone number as a regular we've been earning points. The server was able to input my number at the table and we received a discount on top of it. I certainly hope Chula continues with the table service as it was far more relaxing and less hectic than standing in line. Either way, the seafood has always been exceptional - kudos to the chefs. BTW - Tiffany is the manager and touched tables and showed that she cares; Sorry for the long review but it was such a service change I want everyone to know. We will be back!

We didn't plan or book anything so we just decided on the type of food we wanted and googled. We originally chose somewhere else but could not get a reservation. Then we ran into Toro on google. The Lomo Saltado was the eye catcher here and what made us want to come here. We arrived roughly 40 mins ahead of time (didn't know traffics would be light). That was no problem. They sat us immediately. It was a nice day so we sat outside. It was a beautiful view of the golf course with the burning Toro sign adding a fun touch. Our waitress was a sweet young woman who was very knowledgeable of the menu. She answered every question as if she was cooking it all herself. We ordered a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc to start out. Once the bottle arrived we ordered our starters. We shared the Lomo Saltado and Empanadas. The empanadas were delicious, and the herb sauce on the side elevated the flavors. The Lomo Saltado was delicious on a bed of rice. My only disappointment is that traditional Lomo Saltado comes with Fries and lots of veggies. This was great, but I was hoping for those fries and veggies. I ordered the Red Snapper Fillets with Coconut Rice as my main course and my wife ordered the Lobster Fried Rice. We felt these would pair great with the white wine we were already enjoying. As stated in the picture, prawns were included with my dish but I had them put them on the side and my wife enjoyed them. The lobster came on the shell lying on top of the fried rice. My wife felt like that was a nice touch. She chopped up the prawns and mixed that in also. She loved it a lot. Even our waitress thought it was a nice add. My red snapper fillets came a top a bed of snap peas that were sliced up and in a pool of a coconut based sauce. This dish was amazing. I cannot rave enough about the snap peas in this dish. They brought the enter thing to life. The coconut rice was also amazing and cooked to perfection. I do feel like it could have benefited from having a bit of crispy rice mixed into it. I forget the name of the free dessert the waitress brought us, but it was amazing. It was billed as more of a soufflé but I found it to be more like a lava cake on a cookie shell. They served with a a slightly lemony ice cream. You wouldn't think that would work with chocolate but it totally did. After our meal I wanted to stay a bit to drink a bottle of water and let some of that alcohol settle out of my system since I was driving and don't like to risk the biscuit. So we stopped at the bar. I got my sparkling water and my wife ordered a dirty martini. She said it was the best dirty martini she ever had. This was a sensational place to celebrate our anniversary considering it was an impromptu pick. Kudos to all involved.

Give yourself extra time to park ,the covered parking in the building gets busy.

My wife and I celebrated my birthday with dinner here and we had an absolute wonderful experience…read more It was our first time dining here but it definitely will not be our last. The service was top tier. I wish customer service like this existed everywhere. Hannah was outstanding. She was welcoming, attentive, and helped make our night even more enjoyable. She didn't linger but somehow always knew when to check back on us as soon as we needed something. We're always weary of trying out a new restaurant for the first time but dinner was spectacular. Everything we ordered was so delicious and cooked to delectable perfection. High compliments to the chef! Appetizer: Warm Bread Basket - A must have! The bread was so scrumptious that it doesn't even need the delicious whipped butter. But the butter was so amazing it was hard not to smother every morsel of bread with it. Fantastic appetizer option. Entrees: 1/2lb Dutch Harbor King Crab Legs - Served with perfectly cooked asparagus, potatoes, and the usual side of melted butter. My wife said the butter that the crab is cooked in/served with was so phenomenal that she didn't have the need to dip into the side butter. I chose this restaurant because my wife loves crab legs and these absolutely delivered. The meat was sweet and succulent, and most importantly, they tasted fresh! Filet Mignon (8oz) - Delicious and perfectly seasoned! Exactly cooked how my wife ordered it and she thoroughly enjoyed it. Willow Bend Lamb - I can't rave enough about how exquisite this was. I was worried the chops were going to be too large but the portion size was spot on to my liking. The roasted garlic thyme jus it's served with is rich, savory, and a great compliment to the tender and juicy chop. I would order this again and again. Sides: Parmesan Truffle Fries and Smoked Gouda Tater Tots - It's hard to mess up a potato but somehow Ocean Prime was able to make it even more delicious. The fries had a perfect balance of crisp and tender, and the parmesan truffle flavor was the cherry on top. Wonderful aftertaste and surprisingly pairs well with crab legs. The tots had a perfect crisp exterior and a fluffy inside. The offerings are generous so 1 side would suffice for 2 people. Every bite was scrumptious and a definite recommend for the table. Cocktails: My wife also had the Berries & Bubbles cocktail. Well, it was so yummy that she had 2 of them. I had a sip and although I'm not a vodka fan, I can attest that it was indeed yummy. The dry ice is a nice touch and adds to the beauty and appeal of this drink. The drink is poured at the table (Hannah is clearly a pro at it). It was like a dinner and a show! Dessert: We were offered to choose a dessert on-the-house to celebrate my birthday. We ordered the Warm Butter Cake for the table and a Chocolate Torte to go. Hannah was kind enough to comp both of them for us! The Warm Butter Cake was AMAZING! From the delicious ice cream served on top to the gooey buttery velvety center of the cake with a perfectly crisped edge, it was everything you'd want in a dessert and more. I'm sure it's the star of the dessert menu. I've yet to make it to the torte but I've no doubt I'll be swimming in chocolatey goodness when I do. Lastly, I had flowers delivered to the restaurant to surprise my wife, and I asked if they would please have them set at the table prior to our arrival. They were able to receive the delivery before opening time and were placed perfectly in the middle of our table (booth seating). I'm so grateful for how they accommodated my request and helped me execute a wonderful surprise that gained a beautiful smile from my wife. 10/10 experience. Five stars all across the board. Worth every dollar spent. I highly recommend Ocean Prime for any and all events, or if you're simply just looking for a delicious meal.

I've stopped by Ocean Prime twice, most recently on a Tuesday evening. Located on High Street, you…read morewon't have trouble finding free parking on the street, in one of the surface lots, or the parking garage. Ocean Prime is High Street's most upscale restaurant. Ambiance (4/5): The type of look you expect at a high-end steakhouse and seafood restaurant. While they have some nice booths, both times, I've sat at the bar. Service (4/5): Service overall is pretty good. Not the most friendly, not super efficient, but efficient with a focus on the details. What you expect at a fine dining establishment. Drinks (4/5): Ocean Prime has a nice happy hour that ends at 6 p.m. on weekdays on both drinks and food. On my most recent visit, I had a $5 Heineken (there are several other options). There are also discounts on wine and select cocktails. Food (4/5): I went big on my last visit. There are a good number of appetizers on their happy hour and I started with two: the jumbo shrimp cocktail and the High Street roll. The shrimp cocktail is served with some dry ice which makes for an awesome visual aspect to the dish. Four large shrimp, chilled, in a bed of cocktail sauce. You can't really mess this one up. The High Street roll has tempura shrimp, cream cheese, scallions, and beef carpaccio. A+ for creativity. From there, I had the 8 ounce Piedmontese steak which was a first. It's an expensive steak, similar to wagyu in terms of quality. It's a matter of preference. Piedmontese is a lean, high-protein steak which wagyu is ultra-rich and buttery. It did taste different from any steak I've ever had in my life, but in a good way. Medium rare, of course. I ordered a twice baked potato a la carte for my side. A fantastic meal all-around, though not inexpensive. Happy hour does help though.

We have slowly become regulars at Humble Oysters and for good reason. The oysters have always been…read morefresh and there is a great variety. Our favorite menu items have been the Tuna carpaccio, Cajun Shrimp Angel hair Pasta(this is something we HAVE to order every time-SO GOOD), and the 12 hour Braised Short Rib w/mash. The only reason I am taking off a star for now is our last visit. We tried the Octopus appetizer for the first time. As a chef, I know my food well(sometimes unfortunately so). Would not order it again and the price tag hurt for what it was. Pretty sure it came from a can. It had the preservative oil and texture. Also was a but fishy and could have been canned tuna if you close your eyes. The second thing was our favorite shrimp pasta. First time that the shrimp was not that amazing fresh perfect texture that we are used to. Hope next time it will be as good as it was all the other times. Last, I have seen other reviews about the service. Luckily, we have always had sweet, attentive and impeccable service from our various waiters.

One of my all-time FAVORITE places! If you haven't been here, add it to your list to visit asap…read more They also own the restaurant next door called Humble Bistro. I like this version because it's not as busy as the place next door, it offers a nice vibe, and scrumptious food that never misses. Where do I begin? The staff are always so nice and attentive. They've never missed a beat. I come often and always have a great experience. Now the food....my goodness it's soooo good and extremely reasonably priced. I highly recommend their "oyster bites". It's such a unique way to eat an oyster. They jazz it up with a specific flavor. For example: I always order the Rosé, Dumpling, and Marichada. It's a perfect balance of refreshing, savory and spicy. Truth be told I ordered like 3 rounds of those, especially at only $9 for three of them, it's worth it. I am a huge fan of short rib. I've tried multiple restaurants, and this place beats all of those other places, no question! It's so tender and delicious. The Marichada ceviche was also a hit, and had a side of some sort of green avocado sauce, yummy! Parking is easy as well, there's some right in front or parking lots surrounding the buildings. Both the Humble Bistro and Humble Oysters & Bubbles are a perfect spot to visit. Owned by the same company. They never disappoint! Most definitely will return again.
