Bistro Zinc

"Was in Lenox to see a show at Tanglewood and wanted to have a nice dinner prior, for my wife's Birthday. What a gem Bistro Zinc is! Very cozy, chic atmosphere. Our server was excellent! The food was superb. The Short-Rib Dumplings were a great start. I had the Jambalaya and my wife had the Salmon, both fantastic! The Crème Brûlée was to die for! Definitely a top restaurant in the area and worth a visit. I would recommend reservations too!"

"Came into town for a wedding and hand lunch at the bar. Bar seats are very comfortable with full service counter. French onion soup was impressive with a good Parmesan crisp and soaked croutons. Also got the goat cheese salad (added chicken) and jambalaya (not too spicy)."

"Wayy overrated .. this restaurant doesn’t deserve a 4.5 rating; not when you are charging $35++ for an overcooked salmon. And definitely not when still insist that it’s medium rare when I asked about it. See the picture/video below, is that medium rare to you??! I think this place is way understaffed. The food came out really slow .. and the service was almost none existent, especially at the bar. Not coming back, better go elsewhere for a real fine dining experience."

"Bistro Zinc stole my heart. So many restaurants are great in different ways, but this one is perfect in the way that if I could dream up a restaurant it would be almost identical to Bistro Zinc. My husband and I were so lucky to happen to choose this spot for our anniversary dinner during our trip to the Berkshires and it exceeded all expectations. First of all - service was everything! Britney you are amazing and we appreciated your kindness more than you know. Thank you for making the night so special! So onto food specifics - crab cakes are worth driving hours for - hands down the best crab cake I have ever had. Pear martinis to stay were perfection! Main courses - we had the scallop special which was just done to perfection. That kitchen has some magic going! We also split the Jambalaya which was incredible at the restaurant (we took most of it to go - which was a great move - it tasted even better the next day). We paired the house red with the entrees and you know you are in a special restaurant when the house red is outstanding! It was a Grenache blend that was exactly what I would’ve wanted by the bottle! Finally for dessert - the apple crisp is something so hearty and delicious and the Crème brûlée martini is perhaps one of the best dessert cocktails we have ever had. Sorry for the long post but hats off to this magical restaurant. I look forward to many future visits!"

"Buccatini and burger were overcooked (see pics). Burger burnt. Short rib dumplings and ginger au jus sauce were dry and mediocre at best, especially for price. Barbera wine was worth it. Asked many times for water and didn't get it. Ghosted by bartender. At the 99 one gets water with lemon. Mixed drinks and everything else way overpriced. Sophisticated cried seemed to enjoy it. Great conversation with other patrons. Worst meal I've had on a long time and I review many upscale restaurants. Glad to be home. Terrible date night (See pics). Oh yeah, burger was supposed to be medium rare."
