Best

We got the tasting menus and the meal was very enjoyable. I got the Farmer's Market. The cold potato leek soup was very refreshing; the salad- perfect; the gnocchi amazing. Flavo...

Having grown up in Houston and lived in Dallas, I have visited many excellent restaurants. We have consistently been disappointed in the restaurant selections here in Austin. So ...

Our love affair with a restaurant 10/18/2002

My wife and I have been coming here since they opened the doors. The food is always beautifully done and the chef can be counted on for creative twists like the petite pot pie with the chicken on the menu now. Excellent wine list. The service is unobtrusive and smooth--waiters are some of the best in town. I have hosted clients here and parties in the back room. Everything has always gone wonderfully. I can see why this restaurant rates as highly as it does with Austin critics. Pros: Good parking more

From Liz Carpenter to 60th Anniversary 10/16/2002

We had previously dined at Zoot for a very special evening with Liz Carpenter (what fun!) and knew it would be perfect for my inlaws' 60th wedding anniversary. Yes, 60th! We all ordered something different and each entree was raved about by 8 to 84 year olds (and everyone in between). The chef did a remarkable job in adjusting each meal according to each person's requests and he even made a beautiful, German Sweet Chocolate cake for the occasion. The setting was lovely and the service was tremendous! It was a very special evening filled with family and great food AND it was the easiest party I've ever planned! Pros: Food, Service, Ambience more

Very Disappointed 6/27/2002

Recently went with a large group for a bday party and was very disappointed with all aspects of the meal. The filet (from a limited menu geared toward everyone spending 35.00/entree) was overcooked and tiny. My boyfriend and I ordered filet entree and scallop entree split between us. The waiter incorrectly brought only the filet entree split and by the time he realized the error it would have been another 20 minutes, after waiting an hour for the meal to arrive. I know large parties can be hard to manage, but the place only had maybe 4-5 other tables the whole nite so you would think that the meal would have been perfect. I used to work in the restaurant industry and have been to several 3-4 star places and never have I been so disappointed with a meal than I was at Zoot's more

Better than perfect 6/16/2002

My wife and I have been eating at Zoots for some time now and decided to have a gathering of close friends and family. Working with Heidi and John not only proved to be a pleasure, but resulted in the best executed sit down dinner I have ever attended. Heidi and John did a fabulous job of selecting the menu, pairing the wine, and serving each of our 50+ guests as if they were the only ones in the dinning room that evening. Great food, wine, and staff make this a must for any #! TO ALL at ZOOTS, THANKS FOR a BETTER THAN PERFECT EVENING. Pros: Attentive Staff, Food, Wine more
