Excellent. As always Zola offers astonishingly delicious and creative plates from starters through desserts. Tightly edited fantastic wines by the glass that pair wonderfully with the food. Warm and professional service. Have been going since it opened in its original small space ages ago and it is consistently excellent every time

They are proud of their mood lighting, but we had chance of reading the menu without a light. The food was well worth it.

Upon arrival we were greeted by friendly staff. There is a good selection of wines and spirits. Menu is well sourced. Food is well presented. Our French onion soup was on the salty side but they were very kind and understanding and took it off our bill. All in all I would come back again!!
