Took my mother in law to one of my wife and my go to spots in Arden, Zinfandel Grille. This is our Valentine’s Day, anniversary, random date night spot, and somehow it never lets us down. The consistency is unreal. Staff is always dialed in, and our server was clutch since my mother in law only speaks Spanish. I forgot her name, but she was from Acapulco and absolutely crushed it. Food was exactly what we expect here. My wife and MIL both ordered the steak, and yes, I stole a bite for quality control. Perfectly cooked and seasoned. Mashed potatoes and mushroom spinach were legit. I went with the pumpkin ravioli and the seasonal clam chowder, both clearly made with care. Added a glass of red wine for balance, then we finished strong with a crème brûlée split three ways because sharing dessert feels mature. We love Zinfandel Grille, and bringing a guest who ends up loving it too is always a good feeling. Says a lot about the food and the people 🙏🔥
The cannelloni, butternut squash pizza, and baked brie were delicious, and the drinks were well made. Our server Donteal was attentive and observant, checking in frequently. The lemon cheesecake was an excellent dessert to finish the meal with. The atmosphere was warm and more intimate for a couples' night out.
Good food though pricey. 5 of us went for lunch today to celebrate a coworkers birthday. 2 people ordered sodas, everyone ordered entrees which ranged from $22 - $30. The bill came to $190 before tip. Our friend did get some complimentary vanilla ice cream. Be careful asking for more bread. The server won't tell you but they charge $6 for a serving of 5-6 slices of french bread. It's not even buttered (and the butter they provided was hard, just out of the refrigerator apparently). Pictures chicken sandwich with soup.
Every dish we ordered was fantastic, flavor bombed meals! Our hats off to the chef! The staff and service were great, friendly and casual atmosphere, not pretentious. We had such a great experience here, maybe one of the best dinners I've had in a restaurant, and our lovely server, Erin was great (sorry, if I got the name your name wrong, should have wrote this review sooner). We will definitely visit again. We highly recommend!
We actually came across this place for the calamari and it is phenomenal. Great breading and not at all greasy feeling. The food is amazing every time we have come here. Their cocktails have been spot on and the server was able to offer an off the menu cocktail hand crafted by the bartender. 10/10 great for romantic nights, friendly get togethers and bringing the family around too
