It was great. The staff were friendly and accommodating, the jazz trio was fantastic, and the food was delicious. I wish I'd taken a photo or two but I was just having too good a time. 😊

This place is so cool. I felt like I was stepping into a 1920's jazz club. There was live jazz, dark and swanky, bartenders shaking up drinks and remarkable service. Not to mention the food was delicious. Try the deviled eggs, thank me later.😊

The trio this Monday night killed it. If you’re a jazz person, come here. The interplay was excellent (man, some of those tune tempos?) and fantastic solos by all three. The bartender was more than personable and his twist on classic drinks were amazing. The people hanging at the bar are great local conversationalists. I stumbled on this place by luck a couple of days ago and came back for the live jazz by suggestion. Do yourself a favor and come for this live music spot. Thanks for my best night out on my last night in the city.

21% mandatory service fee, which, in addition to being exorbitant, is wrongly applied to the AFTER tax amount and is thus much higher, is outrageous and should be optionally applied/adjustable based on the diner’s discretion and experience.

One of the best cocktail bars in Seattle!

Evening is so wonderful. Food, service, drinks.. they do live music on Sun/mon night, so that’s always lovely to go and enjoy.

The services is always very friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive 💖

We went spontaneously on a Saturday night. It’s a very cute spot! We were seated outside and it took about 15 minutes to get service. We only ordered two drinks. The drinks took about 20 minutes to arrive. We weren’t the only ones experiencing this…Every party sitting outside kept looking around for servers and looking disgruntled about how long it took for drinks to arrive. And everyone around us were clearly tourists to Seattle—so it’s not the best look.

On top of that, they charge an auto gratuity of 21% — a practice that would make sense if service was always exceptional. Unfortunately, we didn’t find ourselves in that experience.

Zig Zag cafe is nice. The menu has a.some great range and offers something for everyone. I tried th Eggs, Oysters and the Steak. Each were strong for sure. Id say the local oysters were a hit and that flat iron steak was awesome. So beefy. Came with broccolini, spuds, and Onions.

We went for our anniversary and felt so well treated! Robert was absolutely on top of everything and Enrique never let our water glasses get empty. Ben and Lauren came by to make sure we were being very well taken care of and our drinks were absolutely delicious! We loved being in such a great atmosphere with the jazz playing and the entire restaurant visible from our table. The entire staff has great energy and is so kind. Thank you for making our night!
