Zin Restaurant and Wine Bar

Zin Restaurant and Wine Bar Review

Concrete walls and floors and large canvases on the walls make the restaurant casual, industrial, and slightly artsy. The American cuisine—such as grilled pork chop with homemade applesauce or the wine-braised lamb shank—is hearty and highly seasoned. Portions are large, so consider sharing if you hope to save room for desserts like the brownie sundae with house-made coffee ice cream. As you might have guessed, zinfandel is the drink of choice here: the varietal makes up roughly half of the 100 or so bottles on the wine list. From Sunday through Thursday, blue-plate specials featuring their homiest fare (like pot roast and chicken and dumplings) make this place a particular bargain.
