Reviews
This is a fantastic, relatively new restaurant in Shreveport that produces quality food and has outstanding service. The whole grilled fish was perfectly prepared. The atmosphere was open and modern. Highly recommend.
This is probably my favorite restaurant in Shreveport. The interior is dimly lit and designed very sleek and modern, perfect for a date night. I thought the table setup was beautiful, and the ambience amazing. Service was friendly and timely. I had no reservation either, but the staff were able to accommodate very quickly. I recommend making a reservation. The food was actually incredible! I am not much of a grits fan, since I think people tend to make them bland. However, Zuzul's grits were so flavorful and rich, I had to finish the plate. Frankly, they were the highlight of the shrimp and grits dish, despite the shrimp also being very flavorful and delicious. The only downside to this restaurant is that it's a bit expensive for a casual dining experience, so I would definitely go with a purpose. Awesome place.
Betty is our favorite waitress. This is, by far, our favorite spot in town for date night. Their patio is awesome. They are open to suggestions and always making improvements to satisfy their customers. They did a renovation not long ago to improve the sound and lighting on the patio (both of which were much needed). I also like that they change their menu seasonally to mix things up. One of my favorite dishes here is the filet and also the sweet potato bisque. They also have several gluten free desserts to choose from.
Great food, great ambiance, great service! Had the Krispy chicken twice. The guacamole was a little dissatisfying but not bad ... just ok.
Overall, the restaurant is good. We sat in the enclosed patio in blue and white chairs which weren't particularly comfortable (sit low for the table). Restaurant atmosphere is nice, the wait staff was knowledgeable, professional and attentive. We ordered shrimp and grits, lamb, and fish and chips. I'd say the main criticism was the main dish, shrimp, lamb, fish and chips were hot, but the grits and mash potatoes were room temperature. With that said, the food did have great flavor and was presented well. Of note, the portions aren't large. I'm average (5'10, 190 pounds) and if we didn't have appetizers, I would not have been full.
