I always enjoy Zea's, and last weekend was no exception. My companion and I stopped in after a show, and the place was busy. However, we were seated in a very timely fashion. We both had steaks, and as usual, they were cooked to perfection! I really enjoy the wine selection. Seem that they have some vintages that can't be had anywhere else in town. Bravo! less

For the last several years, the Zea restaurant has consistently impressed me with outstanding quality in terms of food, ambience, and service. The restaurant is divided into several small, quiet dining areas suitable for dates, family entertainment, or celebration. Well-behaved children are welcome and the restaurant is family-friendly without being chaotic or child-dominated. Reservations are accepted, and at peak dining hours it's a good idea to reserve a table. The atmosphere is on the upscale side of the bar and grill scene and the food would not be out of place in a fine dining establishment. Decor is subdued and tasteful, music is generally recorded jazz, and the staff is attentive, polite, and almost always sophisticated. There is a patio available in the summer. This restaurant is definitely a good place to take a date, because the tables are not too close together, there are lots of nice, private booths, and the noise level is low due to the design and layout of the building and the type of floor covering used. The food is spectacular. The rotisserie items are slow-cooked and tasty. My personal favorite is the twice-baked crispy duck. Yet the grilled options are also very good. There are a variety of appetizers, side dishes, salads, and desserts, and the wine list is respectable. Not one thing about the Zea is lacking. This kind of upscale bar and grill dining experience is what the Assets Grill and the Whisque try to offer, but fail to deliver. less
