Went here after awful experience at URTHH cafe. This place zinc has style, good food and pleasant folks working there. Service is fast and happy. Will def return here again. Loved the vibe

First time going. Went on a Sunday for brunch the food is amazing. The drink menu is awesome as well. I am definitely going back to try the pastries and desserts.

The team was amazing - friendly and upbeat. The portions were huge! Between the two of us, we could have easily split a sandwich. I recommend the egg salad, and the burger looked great too. The fries were crispy and delicious as well.

went for dinner at 5:30 saturday and it wasn’t busy at all. I’ve seen lines many times at brunch time though when I pass by. No reservation.nice social distanced tables both inside and outside, foods are good price (consider it’s in Art district, yeah very), nice outdoor dining areaWe ordered eggplant parmesan, guacamole chips and today’s soup and all of they were pretty good. Food was very quick. They have good bakery things as well.Wine list has good options for glasses, also they have great cocktail options

Love the ambience great food

Wow! Waffle just melts in your mouth!This cafe is worth a visit alone if youlove waffles. Was not expecting how amazing the Belgium Waffle is here. Has a great light crunch with a perfect flavor of sweetness and buttery goodness. The rest of my breakfast was a bit underwhelming. The coffee was absolutely horrid, wish I had gone across the street at Blue Bottle cafe(amazing coffee) but this cafe deserves my rating just alone on the waffles.The salads here are very good, have a great balance of textures and their house dressing has a very taste to it to amplify the greens.Their burger is not real meat nor is it any kind of impossible or beyond meat but rather a blend of soy and tofu. I am a huge meat eater and lover of all things red meat, but the burger wasn’t half bad. It was actually decent, more so then I thought it would be.The outdoor patio is very inviting and one can enjoy their breakfast with LA’a amazing weather. Prices are a bit steep here but it’s downtown LA so those are expected.Definitely please with Zinc cafe‘s food and their awesome patio, will be happy to return here when I am in downtown.

Amazing place!!! I little too chic for my tastes but there is no doubt it is objectively one of the coolest bars in San Francisco. There's tons of space and a fun vibe. The patrons are a little stuffy but the staff was very accommodating. Also, tons of bar tops across the place making it easier to get a drink.

Delicious casual atmosphere for all the vegans and vegetarians delight. I’ve tried and love their chilequiles bowl, the pita and hummus platter, beet and burrata salad, spinach lasagna, and mushroom burger. Their tiramisu for dessert is good but their pastries are sometimes too dry, perhaps left on too long. It’s a chill place to also have coffee and breakfast but just the same for lunch and dinner. Their little market is also quaint to pick up any last minute gifts from kitchen to bathroom ideas, recipe cookbooks, and a surprisingly decent selection of wine.

Great, easy spot to meet up with friends. Especially loved the seasonal Holiday Latte last time.

Headed into the bar side and was impressed with the cool feeling of the place. Going through the courtyard at night takes you away from the Arts District and into another place.Obviously it’s very casual but the service was great and the quality of the food was as good as you would hope for. Think simple americana cuisine and you’ll be fine.
