The first set was dirty, and when they replaced it with another set, it was still dirty. They need to invest in newer utensils. The portion sizes were not good enough for such a great meal. The highlight was finding the steak sandwich I've been searching for years.

Even tipping $100 dollars at times. Until we had an encounter with a very rude waitress/Bartender. Can’t remember her name, younger woman with glasses and dark hair. For us to come in almost daily for weeks spending well over $1000 a week at times and have to have such a negative incident like that happen and nothing be done about it just shows they do not value good customers that pay their waitresses very well (except the one the incident occurred with) not only is The Zone missing out on this, so are the few hard working nice waitresses that took very good care of our group when we came in. and every time we deal with this individual waitress/bartender she is extremely rude. Just don’t understand how someone can cause your business to lose money and you keep them around!Best of luck to the great waitresses that cared and were always so nice. But until the owner can police his own workers. We will not be back.

We went to an outdoor event and it was the perfect spot for a private group gathering, yet still convenient for food and drinks to be served. A fantastic spot in Sparta!

In my opinion, this is the best restaurant in Sparta. The staff is friendly and the service and food are excellent! read more In my opinion, this is the best restaurant in Sparta. The staff is friendly and the service and food are excellent!

This was not the first time we experienced this from this particular bartender. We requested raw onions with our order, but did not receive them. Additionally, our meal was supposed to come with coleslaw or cottage cheese, but we got neither. Overall, we have received better service from other bartenders at this establishment, but unfortunately not from Kayla.
