What elaineD likes about Zut Tavern:
Haven't been to Zut in a while and don't know why. Lovely brunch menu with a variety of options. Service was attentive but he was great about letting us have our time to chat. I had the Salmon Nicoise which was a VERY healthy portion. Friend had avo benedict which she said was great. Will definitely go back for lunch or dinner. View all feedback. What AlanC doesn't like about Zut Tavern:
Ignored by staff after seated outside. Had to approach Maitre D’ to request a server who then repeatedly failed to perform at minimal levels of expectation. Examples: 2 entrees served while 2 others weren’t ready and served much later, side order requested 2 or more times and finally arrived at end of the meal(it was comped), rack of lamb was literally served as near raw- blood red meat, pasta was mushy. We dine here... View all feedback.

Zut received mixed reviews from diners, with some expressing disappointment in the service and quality of food, while others appreciated the warm atmosphere and friendly staff. The slow service and overcooked dishes were common complaints, along with additional charges for refills and lack of clarity on reservation policies. However, some diners found the dishes to be simple but tasty, with options like roasted grapes over Ricotta and pork chop receiving positive feedback. Despite some shortcomings, Zut was praised for its welcoming ambiance, good beer selection, and satisfying sandwiches at lunch. Overall, diners had varied experiences and opinions about the restaurant, making it a mixed bag for potential diners to consider.
