All 5 of us were pleased with our food. Vol au vent didn’t look like the vol au vent i eat in France but it was a good stew anyway. Rabbit was good so was the salmon.
We’d come back.

We enjoyed a fabulous meal last night! Service was superb and food was perfect. I had the trout on a bed of spinach with a delicious sauce. My boyfriend ordered the chicken which was equally good. Great ambiance and service! Highly recommend trying this quaint little bistro.

This is a glorified Greek restaurant diner. I’m not even sure what type of cuisine it’s suppose to be. Waiter was creepy and the food was bad. How can you mess up a hamburger. Ambience was old people and families. Left in 15 minutes because the food came that fast. Don’t waste your time.

What a lovely gem — a true zinc bar and steak frites! Went there for the first time two days ago and can’t wait to go back… Escargot was Devine!

Super cute place right off the red line exit on Clark and division. I Ordered La Crêpe au Poulet it had chicken and mushrooms. Was really good. I am also super picky about about bread and butter at places and this bread and butter was to my satisfaction. Try their crème brûlée now that was my favorite part of the meal.

My favorite French place. Definitely the most authentic French restaurant I have seen so far in Chicago.
Appetizers: duck liver pâté. Yes, bread is hard for American standards, but that’s how it goes there… It’s toasted baguette. (Btw. Complementary baguette and butter is already wort going there).
Entrees: we had poule grand mere (half chicken with stewy sauce) and the second time the vol-​au-​vent (stew with puff pastry similar to pot pie)
Dessert: crème brûlée, only point for improvement. This was good too but could have had a little less caramelized sugar topping.
Wine selection is great, very good German, French and Italian wines for a good price.
Great value for your money if you think about the complex French cuisine. Appetizers ~$ 10, entrees $ 20 – 30, dessert $ 8. Especially for river north this is priced very well.
Last but not least. The atmosphere is amazing. You walk into this place and you think you’re in Paris. ;-) will definitely go again in the next couple of weeks.

I really enjoy coming here for brunch, namely the Eggs Benedict. I have had dinner here as well, but can’t say I was overwhelmed with it. The service and ambiance are great, though, and worth a visit.

I’ve been to a lot of French restaurants in this city, but this is by far the most authentic Parisian bistro we have. The long banquette with the mirror, the chairs, the floor, the bar– it all smacks of Paris. All it’s missing is a giant patio filled with carafes of red wine and people smoking cigarettes with their dogs under the tables. The service is friendly and efficient, and the food is absolutely spot on. The mushroom crepes are my standout and are completely fantastic. For dessert you absolutely cannot miss the espresso pot de crème. If you want to go to Paris without the plane ride, come to Bistrot Zinc, close your eyes and pretend everyone around you is speaking French.

Came in for dinner and was not disappointed.
App: Escargot was tasty with lots of butter, garlic, and herbs.
Entrée: My husband ordered the March special skate in a lemon and caper sauce which was very yummy. I ordered the lamb cassoulet and for whatever reason, I wasn’t feeling it as much as the skate. My husband thought the lamb tasted good but he too also preferred the fish dish.
Dessert: Crème brûlée which was very creamy!
Overall, great atmosphere and fast service. Food was pretty yummy too. Price for entrees are around the $ 25 – 30. Ohhh… and they have a nice selection of wines by the glass!!!

Sorry all you bistro zinc lovers… Maybe I went at the wrong time of day, or ordered the wrong thing, or just have different tastes than you…
I will say the liver pâté itself was quite good. While the red wine mustard was unique, it was equally strange, and the toast served with the pâté was too hard. Again, though, the pâté was probably my favorite part about our lunch.
My husband ordered the eggs benedict and said they were OK.
I had the Croque Monsieur with a side of French onion soup (cheesy — I know!). While the French onion soup could pretty much hold its own with the hundreds I’ve had before (lots of onions in there, but there’s nothing wrong with that!), the croque monsieur was so depressingly bad and boring. It fell apart after a couple bites, and the ingredients seemed «less than.»
I’ve had croque monsieurs several times, and was honestly shocked at how disappointing it was at what is clearly an old school ‘French Bistro.‘
Well, it was on my list of places to try for a while… and that’s done.
And aside from saying that our waitress was good, that’s about all I can add.

Dropped in for a late lunch this weekend, drawn in by the promise of good French onion soup on a cold day… Doh, hopes dashed once again… The soup was fine, but the broth lacked depth of flavor that I was craving and also light on the broth to onion/​bread/​cheese ratio. Had the sandwich combo with the truffled egg salad sandwich which was very good– rich yet light, well seasoned. For dessert had he chocolate mousse which was a bit lackluster and the cream anglaise was overly sweet.

When I walked in with my date, the hostess got us seated right away with the menu. We went on a Sunday around 3pm. There were two other couples and we were all seated by the windows. The atmosphere was nice. Our waitress came to greet us within 3 mins and introduced us the specials of the day. French music was played in the background. We ordered french union soup and the royale hamburger. The food was okay. I liked the burger but it wasn’t the best burger I ever had. I know it’s weird to go to a French restaurant and ordered a burger. I was just curious about a French restaurant hamburger.
The waitress was super nice and always filled out glasses with water. The service was great as our food came within 10 mins after we finished the bread. I’ll try something else next time I go there. It is a bit pricey though. If you want to spend less than $ 12…you’ll end up getting soup or salad. Perfect for a lunch date though.
Also, we went in exactly at 3pm. On Unilocal,it said the restaurant was from 3pm to 5pm. Not sure if we went in when they were in break. Either way, we had a great time and I enjoyed the service and the music.

I like this place because the food makes you feel full and satisfied, but not sluggish. Interior décor/​ambiance is great, as is service. The food is well-​made and not drenched in grease or saturated with sugar, which I really appreciate. However, because of this, the food doesn’t particularly stand out to me in any way. It was definitely good, but not spectacular.
I came around on a Saturday morning and there was no wait whatsoever, making this a great place for a quick, casual brunch if you want to avoid crowds

I came on a Sunday for brunch.
The service is amazing. The servers were very prompt and knowledgeable. My French toast was superb. I didn’t even need more maple syrup. The atmosphere inside
The atmosphere is traditional French. No Tvs inside so you have to pay attention to your guest and listen to classical music. Oh the horror.
I will definitely come here for dinner next time I’m in town.

Tried Bistrot Zinc for lunch. Although the food was high quality and unique and the prices were in the 15 – 25 range, I thought it was not palatable enough for me to give a 5 star. I had the chicken.
Also, the service was a bit slow. It was a slow day, but it took a few extra minutes for the waiter to serve us.

I moved to Chicago three years ago and have wanted to try this place since. I walked by it on my way to school every day and the open window/​air dining was so enticing. But it seemed that every time I wanted to go, I always seemed to be rushing off to somewhere.
But I finally got a chance to go! And I was excited.
I walked in the door, and the host saw me and my dining partner walk in, turned around, and started fixing something on a table? .umm…
So we waited for a few seconds and he came back and sighed and said «Two?»…“yes please?“
The waiter started us off with bread. And it was far from good. Just really bland, cheap bread with butter. But it was free, and who am I to complain?
My dining partner ordered a chicken and mushroom crêpe that was really quite good!
On the other hand, i ordered a shrimp pasta of sorts that was the fishiest thing I have ever eaten. My dining partner was convinced it was just from really old shrimp that had gone bad and forbade me to eat any more.
So bottom line? I’m really torn. It was just such a let down. I was expecting much more and got so much less than I expected.

If you like French food, this place is a must. Very elegant décor. Good wine menu. This visit we shared some Pâté’ and Steak Tartare, both of which were very good. For dinner, I had the Bouillabaisse, which was excellent. My wife had the Pan Seared Duck Breast which was good but a little over cooked. She ordered medium rare and it was medium to medium well. For dessert, I highly recommend the Profiterolies. The Almond butter cake with macerated berries is also very good. Great place for a quiet romantic dinner.

Nothing is better than a french breakfast on a Sunday morning. That’s why it was so great to find one that was so outstanding during our trip to Chicago. Bistro Zinc was open, easy, and had that french casual atmosphere that makes for a perfect Sunday morning.
We each had a cappuccino, which was phenomenal, and shared the eggs benedict and quiche of the day. I can honestly say, that the quiche was one of the best I have ever had. It was a goat cheese mushroom quiche, that was light, cheesy and bright all at the same time. It came with a fresh green salad, and trust me… our plate was practically licked clean.
Also, our service was absolutely phenomenal! Our waiter, Chris, was really personal and gave us some city tips for the rest of our stay. He even stayed up on our water intake, which we’ve learned that being from AZ, is much higher than the average Chicago-​an, lol.
Definitely looking forward to going back for another classic french brunch next time we are in Chicago!

My wife and I have been here a number of times considering its close proximity to our old apartment. My thoughts:
–Very great atmosphere, traditional French décor, quiet and classy
–There’s no TV at the bar so the bartender talks to you which is awesome
–It’s super easy to walk in any weeknight and just sit down which is great
–The wait staff is really on top of it, very attentive and helpful
–It is quite accessible, 22/​36/​Red Line all drop off right near it
–The two food highlights from my side are:
–The mussels are an easy 5⁄5 for me, ask for extra bread to dip!
–The Croque Monsiuer is a 4/​5, I like the bread crispier
–All other food has been tasty, these are just the most memorable
I will definitely be back again in the future.

Great French atmosphere inside. Busy and bustling staff pacing back and forth to satisfy customers needs. Elegant menu with just the correct amount of food offerings to satisfy even those that are not too familiar with French cuisine.
Nice looking rustic bar area and beautify appointed art work and Parisian décor throughout the restaurant creating a very comfortable elegance.
Ordered the French onion soup, mussels and quiche. Great descriptions of each item on the menu really romances your desire to try everything!
