Everything was amazing. The service was slightly awkward because we just went for Dessert since we had eaten dinner already. The waitress just gave us like an awkward energy probably because she thought we weren’t gonna tip much since we hadn’t dinner there. We still tipped her 25% because we believe in good karma but I personally feel whether I’m just there to drink a glass of water or eat a feast I should still receive the same energy from the people waiting on me as much as they give to their other tables.

I enjoy dining at Zov’s and I go there often. A bit on the pricey side but a nice place to get together with the girls. I wish they added new items on their menu every now and then.

Service was good Baily was attentive, polite and overall good service. The food was average. The best part of the meal's were the fry's and dessert. Would not return. I don't mind paying for really good food. This definitely not was not worth the cost. Wish I could give a better review.

We could not have been more pleasantly surprised with our dinner. Because it was Valentines Day we expected it to be too crowded, mediocre food and bad service. They seated us right away at a very private table, our server, Lupita was delightful and the food was excellent!! To top it off they had a live musician playing soft, romantic music!! Thank you Zovs!!
