Seven of us for my birthday we're gonna go see little feet at the UA theater and before the concert we went to Zinqué. The only drawback to this café is that it was very noisy. Besides that we ordered a lot of food and for me being gluten intolerant, I ordered the gluten-free rigatoni. Our table had MAINS PROVENÇAL SHORT RIBS (GF) carrots, roasted tomatoes - with potato gratin STEAK-FRITES* chimichuri or peppercom sauce (GF) GRASS-FED WAGYU BURGER & FRIES lettuce, tomato, cheese, pickled cucumber, red onion, secret sauce, on brioche bun or lettuce wrap HALF ROTISSERIE CHICKEN (GF) fries or potato gratin CRISPY BRUSSELS SPROUTS (VG) pistachio, hummus, lemon juice, thai basa RIGATONCINI BOLOGNESE (GFO) grass-fed beef, grated Parmigiano Reggiano Everyone liked the food although the chicken was not exceptional. Service was very good. read more

Would not recommend. Service was terrible. Our server was negative. The au gratin-potatoes were not what I expected. The broccolini was too spicy which was not noted on the menu. The Steak frites were overcooked, French fries were cold. Two stars for a decent drink and simple salad. read more

Me and the bestie was here for our LA trip and it was literally next door to our Air BNB. Such a great find, with vibey interior, and yummy food! The breakfast we had was fresh and the eggs were cooked PERFECT! Steak Frites was good, Salmon was super crispy and fluffy inside. The service was attentive and friendly. This place is like your coolest friend's house with mysterious income! read more

First time visiting, found it through DineLA. Good service, fantastic food with gluten free options & cute interior decor. We enjoyed everything we ordered. The burrata, white nectarine, prosciutto, tomato salad was refreshing & flavorful. The crispy artichokes were excellent. The Provençal short ribs were super tender, it came with carrots, roasted tomatoes & potato. The seared cod was flakey & tender, cooked to perfection, it came with carrot purée & brussels sprouts. Our desserts strawberry chantilly & flourless chocolate cake were both delicious. There's indoor & outdoor seating & a parking lot next door for $15. My only complaints were that the chairs were hard and uncomfortable, and there was no AC. It was pretty hot and stuffy inside, so we ended up sitting outside. That said, we really enjoyed the food, and it's definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. read more

Stopped in for Happy Hour with coworkers last week and had a good experience. I'll start with parking. Paid lot right next door. I don't remember how much. Paid via QR code. No option for time segments. Keep that in mind if you choose to park there. Service was hit and miss. Hostess who also seemed to be doing double duty as a server, was awesome. However, we sat at the bar thinking we'd have great service ... that's where it was hit and miss. He was busy - so it's understandable that he would focus on the job - except that we didn't have his undivided attention. He started taking our order then walked away. Almost to the point that we felt like he was just popping in, like checking in but then just walking off. This happened a few times. And, normally I'd be a little more irritated but he was busy and he didn't get our orders wrong and when we ordered, we didn't wait long. Food was good. Appetizers. See pics. I had a few glasses of wine - recently, I've been on a red wine kick. Not sure what happened but I'm not complaining. The apps were served quickly decent portion sizes for apps. Again, see pics. I like that there's parking nearby and the bar set up so you can sit indoors and still people watch - those walking by. Chose not to sit outside though - there was an incident with an individual right on the sidewalk that was handled with security presence. Welcome to DTLA! read more

The food is very nice. I had the green lasagna, which I thought might've been a little odd. It was not... It was the camenbere cheese that made it so delicious and different. Plenty of seating in their dining area bar and outdoor patio. read more

Girl dinner? Yes please! Zinque is a happening little restaurant in lively Downtown L.A., with modern- rustic vibes. It was the perfect casually fancy restaurant to celebrate Mother's Day. Not too overwhelming, but swanky enough for a special occasion. Lots of food choices! We had to study the menu a bit before making our selections. We ordered smoked salmon toast appetizer, mussels, steak & frite, pasta, and flourless chocolate cake for dessert. The stand out's were their mussels, smoked salmon toast, and dessert. The pairing of smoked salmon over a buttery spread, on top of perfectly crunchy toast was so good! Mussels were perfectly seasoned and big in size. And also, their flourless chocolate cake .. WOW. Do save room for their dessert! One more thing to mention is that they have a great selection of non-alcoholic drinks including mimosa, champagne, and mocktails. Our waiter recommended aperol & spritz, and it was SO good! I loved that I could cheers with the ladies with an actually tasty mocktail. Their price point is really good for the atmosphere and food. I appreciate being able to enjoy good food without an overpriced menu. I would definitely come back! Cheers, Zinque! read more

Such a cute space! It is on Broadway next to other restaurants and shops. I came in with some colleagues after a meeting and the place was quiet for a saturday afternoon. Spacious area with cool seating. We grabbed a table and checked out the menu, which was unique. I had not ate in the morning, so I wanted anything with bacon. I chose the breakfast burrito and a side of fries. The burrito was good but I would have preferred some salsa inside because it was a little dry. The fries were good and the rose was tasty as well. Most of the table got a sandwich with salad and they enjoyed their choice. The waiter was nice but straight to the point when taking our order. If you were still looking at the menu thinking about your option, he would move to the next person. No suggestions no conversation about how to help to decide or upsell something lol. Lastly it was 6 of us and I appreciated the QR code at the table enabling us to pay our bill separately. read more

Came here for a nice solo date after seeing a show.. and just ended with a poor experience. Upon arrival the host was welcoming. He asked if bar seating was okay and I said yes, however I was seated by the POS which is my least favorite seating but even with the constant waiter traffic, it wasn't too bothersome. I ordered the grilled salmon and the flourless chocolate cake. Both were delicious! HOWEVER, the ratatouille was a pile of slimey gooey mush siting on top of the bed of rice, under the salmon. I tried to eat it, but it just was so off putting I couldn't stomach it and pushed it to the side. Now, the real issue was my bar tender / server. After placing my order (I ordered my entree and dessert at the same time, no drinks), he NEVER came back to me. No one asked how I was doing, if everything was okay, etc. I was there long enough for at least one check in. He walked passed twice I believe, but no eye contact lol. I've never experienced that. I had to ask someone else for my check. I asked the person if I could pay via the inKind app, he said yes, gave me my check number and told me how.. but it looks like they still charged my card! So I'm hoping the pending transaction will be dismissed. Either don't sit at the bar here, or just don't come at all. read more

An intimate little French cafe where I enjoyed a nice anniversary dinner. It looks like its part coffee shop, part restaurant, part old-school LA bar, but tonight it was rather hot inside as we're in a bit of a heatwave. That didn't stop us from ordering the steamy provincial short ribs, cooked perfectly and paired with a delicious and crispy potato gratin. These were incredibly tender and savory. The Japanese sweet potato might have been even better though. Not particularly large but packed with flavor. A little yogurt adds even more sweetness. The Brussels sprouts were admittedly not my favorite. A bit too thick for me, which kept them from getting crispy. The pistachio flavor profile isn't really my favorite either. Despite the Brussels I still had a wonderful time here and our server was great. He was very personable and was QUICK to top off our wine. Loved him! read more

Date night with the wifey. What an amazing little spot. A menu that pleases everyone (unless you're one of those that needs chicken nuggets everywhere). The kicker, a very reasonably priced spot that makes you feel like you're on a fine dining adventure. My wife got a pasta that was absolutely delicious. I don't remember the name. My review is for the steak frites. Wow! Perfectly cooked medium rare and the skinny fires were delicious and light. There are two sauce options. I got the chimichurri, and I don't think I'll be able to get anything else. It was that good. I can't wait to come back over here. While the service was friendly, I was left with the impression that they care more about looking cool, than being overly attentive. Hence one star do down. read more

Perfect place to stop before a show in the area. The wait was not long but it was only me. The bar seemed to have spots open in decent time.

I had the pepperoni flat bread which was perfectly cooked with crust edges. The cocktail was tasty. read more

Came here for a mother's day brunch. It wasn't crowded at all which was inviting but their brunch menu seems to lack compared to their dinner. Inside is nice and roomy and service was for the most part good until the end they began to take a bit longer as the people started coming in. I ordered an avocado toast, but unfortunately did not get my item at the same time as everyone else. By the time I did, my party was almost done with their food. In an effort to make things right they brought over a free olive oil loaf slice. Overall, cute spot but I wouldn't come back for brunch- maybe dinner? read more

I had family lunch at Zinqué DTLA today. My Mom treated me for my birthday. Everything was delicious! I ordered the Blueberry Pancakes, and they were perfect -- not overly sweet and had a very healthy version of pancakes, wholesome flavor, which I really appreciated. I've recently stopped drinking soda and sugary snacks for my health and have been exercising daily to manage my blood sugar, so it was great to enjoy pancakes that felt light and healthy. My Mom had the Avocado Toast with a Decaf Americano, and I also ordered a Decaf Americano -- it was very good. My brother ordered the Scrambled Eggs and an Espresso, and he said his meal was delicious as well. The servers were very friendly, and the food and atmosphere were wonderful. I had a great experience overall! Cf) Just one thing ; One bite Fritata was $5. Wow. But, all of other food's price was very reasonable. read more

A beautiful and loved all-day open-concept restaurant in downtown for small plates, meals, craft cocktails, la colombe latte drinks, and more! I went to Zinqué few times now and always have a great time with friends. Their Le Breakfast Bowl is my go-to for lunch because its packed with veggies and just delicious! The bowl includes egg, quinoa, avocado, garbanzo beans, roasted cherry tomatoes, ninja radish, mixed greens, burrata, and is topped with miso-tahini dressing. I've tried their lattes here before as well and can't get enough of their iced Hazelnut Latte. It's perfectly sweet and packs the mid-day caffeine fix for me. A noteworthy fun dish I've had here is their Pork Belly Taco. It's a big-sized taco that is rich and packed with cubes of pork belly, and topped with carrots and cilantro for the perfect bite. I had one of these tacos and was full and satisfied. Everyone is very nice here and happy to get what you need. You pay at the counter first or you can sit at the table and order via the QR code. I'll definitely be returning and recommending Zinqué to many friends and coworkers for a great time! read more

In the heart of Downtown Los Angeles, hidden among the noise and constant motion of the city, lies a small and beautiful gem -- a place that quietly pulls you away from the chaos the moment you walk through the door. The atmosphere changes instantly. Soft music fills the room, the lighting is warm, and the service is attentive without being intrusive. Between the thoughtfully prepared shareable plates and the drink menu, it becomes easy to detach from the fast rhythm of Downtown and settle into a calm, cozy moment. The food is very good, and the portions are generous enough to share comfortably at the table. It's the kind of menu that invites conversation -- dishes arriving one after another, meant to be enjoyed together. If there's one thing I wish were slightly better, it would be the drink selection. The menu is good, but I would love to see a stronger lineup of tequila and Scotch options to match the quality of the food and the ambiance. Overall, it's a great place to meet a friend or even hold a casual business meeting -- somewhere you can actually hear each other talk while enjoying the moment. And if you're local, you already know: Downtown Los Angeles parking can be a challenge. Fortunately, there is a paid parking lot right next door that charges $15 per day (March 2026). A small escape in the middle of the city. read more

Stopped in for breakfast and the bartender / barista/ server couldn't have been nicer. The coffee bar is outstanding. The breakfast selection has something for everyone. I had the protein bowl and was prepared as if in a very high end restaurant! Great presentation. The vibe was farm to table with that dish. The simple egg sandwich was just the right size for a smaller appetite, and the toasty English muffin on that was perfect. The lighting inside was dim, great for an early wake up when you don't want too many bright lights in your face. Nice music. We will be back. read more

Would not recommend their charcuterie board, no cheese whatsoever. Came with pate, which was horrific and gross -- salami, mustard and jalapeños. Made for a very salty lunch. The steak was good but the chimmicurie was horrific -- cilantro floating in oil. Fries were okay, but sure they tasted better fresh. For $60, go elsewhere. read more

We decided to stop in for breakfast before heading over to the flower market. I saw several reviews which mentioned that their bacon and crispy potatoes breakfast burritos was good so I went with it. Agreed! It was very good. I also saw positive reviews on their potato gratin which was also very good. The ambiance of the restaurant was gorgeous. It would be a great place for a dinner date or to grab some drinks. A place like this with a big bar will likely have some good cocktails. I took off a star because the service could have been better. I'm not sure if they were short staffed that particular saturday morning but it was really slow for only a few patrons being in the restaurant. It looked like they were still setting up and getting the bar ready. Most restaurants and bars take care of a majority of the setup before they open, this place clearly did not so getting there right when they open might not be the best time. Street parking might be difficult at times and the area is a bit seedy but there are paid lots in the area, I always try to look for street parking which was meters in that area. Morning parking wasn't an issue. read more

This place was a great find while wandering around downtown in the morning. I was actually on my way to another place that id tried recently not too far away, and I noticed the neon sign as I walked past from the opposite side of the street. I crossed the street and walked in, sat down and studied the menu for a few minutes. There was a gentleman enjoying his breakfast when I arrived, it appeared that I might be the second person to walk in that morning because they had opened shortly before I arrived. To make a long story short, good service, really good food and coffee, nothing to complain about. Id definitely come here again, and recommend it to anyone looking for quality food early in the morning, or even an early drink, since they have a full bar and open at 7am. I ordered something pretty straightforward because I didn't recognize a couple of things i read on the menu, but id go back and take a chance & order one next time, being that the gentleman who were working were attentive and seemed to be enjoying what they were doing. Well done. Thank you guys. I give you a 5 for my first visit. read more

I'll preface by saying the Venice location is amazing: great service, great food & customer service - I love going there! On the other hand, the West Hollywood location was very disappointing. The host was very dismissive , not welcoming and even though there is plenty of staff nobody is in a hurry to take your order. Such a shame that there is a such a noticeable difference between both locations! read more

Being overwhelmed by a menu is the only kind of overwhelm I actually enjoy, and this place delivered. There were so many incredible options it was hard to choose, made even better by our waiter Ryan, who was incredibly sweet, informative, patient, and and generally lovely. The ratatouille was outstanding (and surprisingly generous for a side), served with perfectly buttered, toasted bread. My friend's steak frites was cooked perfectly, and both the chimichurri and pepper sauce were spot on. Sadly, I wasn't hungry enough to order more, but I'll absolutely be back. The ambiance was nice as well. Thanks again Ryan! :) read more

Zinqué DTLA delivered a consistently enjoyable brunch experience with standout drinks and well-executed dishes. Highlights: The Baklava Latte was the clear winner--rich, nutty, and aromatic without being overly sweet. The Hojicha Latte was equally enjoyable: smooth, lightly roasted, and comforting. On the food side, the Smoked Salmon Toast was excellent, especially with the added fried egg, which brought extra richness and balance. The Avocado Toast (V) was generous and thoughtfully prepared, elevated by quality ingredients and great bread. What to note: Portions and pricing lean toward the upscale side, but the quality and execution largely justify it. Overall: Warm, attentive service and Zinqué's signature cozy-chic atmosphere make this a great spot for brunch, coffee, or a relaxed catch-up in DTLA. A place we'd happily return to. read more

Expensive drinks. But good drinks. Kind of pricey for what it is all around, but, then, it is a nice place with ambience downtown. Got some Bloody Marie's here one day and they were quite well made, good pours. Had too many , three, because they were that good and it was a day to indulge after an earlier commitment. But they were not cheap. Added an avocado, tomato tartine , the bill with tax and tip was about $80. Hmm. The repast was nice ...but not $80 nice. And the service could be called adequate. Might go back but probably won't. read more

This restaurant is conveniently located right next to The United Theater on Broadway in Downtown Los Angeles and provides the perfect ambiance for a pre-show meal. There is cozy seating inside and high top tables outside, which is where I dined. The service was unexpectedly fast, as I got quickly seated within five minutes of speaking with the front of house. I tried the delicious red pepper hummus and cheese dip, which came with delightfully toasted bread. I moved on to the seared cod, which came on a delish carrot based purée and also tried the mushroom pasta (which I added grilled shrimp too). The food came out pretty quickly and tasted phenomenal, each plate with a whirlwind of flavor. I'm very glad everything worked out timing-wise, as dinner did not take long at all before having plenty of time to make it to the comedy show just next door. I am excited to go back and try some of the other delightfully sounding plates on the menu. Needless to say, I will be back in the area and restaurant again ASAP. read more

STEPH JUDGEMENT: Spacious upscale-casual eatery with a diverse menu. We came here for breakfast while staying at the STILE hotel next door. We came mainly out of convenience, but they ended up impressing us with great food and service. We were up quite early so there were no crowds and we were able to get seated right away. The place is impressively large with a pleasant modern feel, but it can get filled up, especially later in the day. We'd walked by it the night before and it had looked pretty busy. They offer a lot of (but not overwhelming number) items on their menu. We were glad to see a good amount of vegetarian options. I got a coffee and the smoked salmon toast and the hubby got the breakfast bowl. We were both very impressed with the quality of the food, and thought the friendly, attentive service was great as well. We also thought the prices were reasonable for the quality. This would be one of our top choices the next time we're in the area. read more

We chose this location because it looked lively and fun. I made a reservation just in case it was crowded before Billy Strings. We got sat in a back corner with abosolutly ZERO atmosphere! There were tables near the bar and on the patio. Service sucked. The dude recommended a drink to me what was so hoorific I only took one sip. He saw that my glass had not been touched, yet he did not even ask me if he coulod get me something else. I DO NOT EXPECT A FREE DRINK, I EXPECT SERVICE. We paid a fortune for 1 plate, crappy drinks, and TAP WATER served in a fancy bottle. I can not believe that humans treat humans the way that place treated us. What a bunch of stuck up snobs. OH...THE TOPPER.....YOU CAN NOT TIP LESS THAN 20% You have to pay with your phone and are forced to tip! FORCED! I am so digusted in this place. LEARN HOW TO TREAT PEOPLE EQUALLY!!!!

Had some friends in town the other weekend, and the wanted to have brunch on a Sunday prior to driving back to San Diego. They were staying in downtown, so we decided to give Zinque a try seeing as we had never been there for some reason. We had a reservation, so we were seated right away on the patio. Our sever was on top of everything, with recommendations and drinks. So we ordered pretty quickly, as everyone had an idea of what they wanted to eat. How was the food? Well, I personally got the bacon and crispy potatoes burrito. Presentation was kind of lacking, and flavor wise, it just did not stand out in any way. The potatoes could have been crispier, giving it that texture element to contrast the avocado, while the spinach felt a little wet. It came with salsa and was really needed to give it a little more punch of flavor that was lacking. The banana buckwheat pancakes had a nice caramelization on the bananas, but the pancakes themselves did not necessarily stand out. They were decent but they were pancakes that you wouldn't differentiate from other buckwheat pancakes from another establishment. The soft scramble was decent, eggs were cooked well and the herbs and parmesan were a nice touch for flavor. Finally, le breakfast bowl had a lot going on with it but was a nice meal on the healthier side. Overall, left Zinque feeling like it should have been better than it was, While there were some decent dishes like the soft scramble, things like the breakfast burrito were really a let down. And with so many places in DTLA you can go to for brunch, Zinque did not necessarily make me feel I needed to come back nor recommend others try it out. read more

I've been hearing about this place for a while, and I'm so glad my family and I finally got to try it! Parking was a bit rough, but that's expected downtown. From the moment we sat down, our server, Jonathan (I believe that how's you spell his name), was incredibly friendly and helpful, guiding us through the menu with patience and great recommendations. I really appreciated the small conversations he had with us throughout our visit. The restaurant's design was beautiful, and since it wasn't too busy, we had an even better experience. The food was delicious--especially the steak frites, which Jonathan recommended and ended up being a hit at our table!
