Friendly People and Great Food... what's not to like? 2/1/2009

I just visited the zinc lounge and had a Fantastic time! The food was delicious, my favorite was definitely the Ahi :) The drinks, well let me just say: Oh Ya! The drinks were um how do i put this, AMAZING. The prices were compariable to other bar and resturaunts of its type in the area and in comparison were well worth it especially since they offer drinks that are not only dangerously yummy but also Very Unique. I had a drink called the ""frozen orchid"" which was like nothing I had ever had before and was served in an amazing glass made of ice and the taste, lets just say my boyfriend has competition because I think I'm in Love! Plus, there was a good variety on their drink menu. Also, I happen to be a fairly indecisive individual and it took me a long time to decide on what I should commit to for my first drink..like 30 minutes and included an extensive interview with the bartender for suggestions.. and I really appreciated how friendly and knowledgable the staff was with helping me decide on the right drink..which as you know can be a big decision on a saturday night! To address other reviews i read: I noticed another review suggested it was a ""cougar den"" and only had older people. I just have to say I am in my mid 20s and I had a great time and found the people in the bar to be a fun group of people. I met some wonderful business men visiting from australia (some my age and some older) and had a fantastic and humorous chat w/them. Overall, I found that the ages varied, with a very nice sophisticated and friendly crowd (Besides who says just 'cause your older you don't know how to have a good time?? The older australian business man had more drinks than any of us!) For the record I am not an employee or in any association, other than that I take my eating and drinking experiences very seriously! overall I gotta say that I highly recommend checking it out, I will definitely be going back, saturday with my girls in fact, so hey maybe I will see you there! Pros: Great food, friendly knowledgable staff, amazing drinks, friendly crowd more
