    went for dinner loved the place the atmosphere was great and the food was great the salmon was superior....the chef visited our table and was extremly nice.I really loved the salad bar. One thing that was terrible was the service our waitress was awful never was never around hard to get a clean plate...it took a while to get the servers to come around think the little rock should be used to hit them in the head to get there attention....

    TOO EXPENSIVE and NOT WORTH THE PRICE; the desert was horrible like they don’t even use real cream. The meat selection was just like meat you get from every other restaurant, nothing new or gourmet. The waitress was horrible and then they even included the gratuity in the bill…WORSE money I ever spent!

    Had a great time there with my wife. We enjoyed the buffet and meat selection (although a bit slow coming around) was quality. Special mention to our waiter Ilyas for a job well done. The better half also has a nut allergy, and we were very impressed with the chef walking her through the buffet to show her what she should avoid. All in all, we recommend it thoroughly and will be back sooner rather than later

    For those who wait, you know why you do; for an exceptional dining experience. Sorry for the Theresa's out there, I would love to have your business as well if no one was in my restaurant. Lines are a true tell tale to what is really going on inside. Fine Dining is great entertainment, especially when a Chef knows what they are doing. No popcorn, peanuts and crackerjacks here, just plenty of home runs!

    This dining experience was my first time at Zed and first date with a beautiful woman. The wait staff was extremely friendly from the moment Luis greeted us and Yusuf served us throughout the meal. He was full of all kinds of information about the restaurant and it's meals. At the end, he escorted my date and I to see the roof which was impressive. Overall, the ambiaence, dining and wait staff experience was awesome. I would highly recommend Zed. However, be prepared to open your wallet.

    FANTASTIC!!! I took my Sales Team there for an outing and from the beginning the service food and atmosphere were unmatched. I can understand the frustration some experienced as there was a line outside and plenty of room inside. All I can say is get there early!!!! It is worth it.

    We waited MORE THAN ONE HOUR in the line to get upstairs to the rooftop (we would have left way before that, but we were trying to get up there for a going-away party). I don't know if they are trying to create "buzz" or whatever, but they need to handle the line better. Once we got up there, the rooftop was pretty nice, but we weren't there for long, as we were so exhausted and cranky from the line that we left soon thereafter.

    This place is outrageous!!! I went for drinks with some girls on a Thursday night. There was a line to get in at 6pm on a Thursday! What made it more frustrating was people kept coming downstairs to check on their friends and said the place was practically empty and therefore lame. Get over yourself! Don't make people stand in line in 90 degree heat at 6pm on Thursday to create the illusion that your bar is packed. To top it off the bouncer is a hot headed russian guy who flipped out on a girl who made 1 comment about how stupid it was that he only let 2 people enter in over 30 minutes. Fire that asshole! You lost 5 customers and received bad reviews. If you like to be treated like shit while standing outside a bar at 6pm on a Thursday then this is the place to go. I left and went to a place that appreciated our business. Go to NOMI it is beautiful and you will be treated well.

    What’s not to love? Being able to customize your dining experience can't be beat! My personal favorites, Parmesan Pork Tenderloin, Goat Cheese Encrusted Lamb Chops, Cheese Bread Pudding, Etc., Etc., Etc... The rooftop bar and the dining room fire pit are the places to be. Service and decor solidify the experience. We went for brunch and will be back!
