A neighborhood gem. Patrons have 2 options for dining. A cafe side open for breakfast and lunch in a more casual setting with a nice patio with heaters and fans. Delicious offerings of fresh desserts that can be ordered to go or with sit down service along with a gelato station. The bistro side has a different menu, open for lunch and dinner. It's good for a business lunch or for just a more upscale ambiance.

We had never eaten here before. Our server was very friendly and efficient. The food was delicious, though I would have liked a few more menu options. The seating is very close together and the noise level is quite loud. That is my only negative.

It was our anniversary but, it was not a place to go . None of our requests were Acknowledged after we got to the restaurant. It was loud we couldn’t have 1 Conversation. We we’re seated in a very loud section after I informed the hosts That we requested the quiet side . It was not a special dinner so I would NOT Refer anyone to Zov’s for a special quiet event.
