I last ate here on my anniversary in march and they seated us at this horrible two-top table next to the front door that every time someone opened we froze. Well they sat my sister and I at the same table and although it was warm it is just not a good table. Both times we made reservations. I don't... More

Love Downtown Sandusky! Cool buildings and a great waterfront! The Zinc has a unique menu and unique venue. The food is eclectic french, and very good, great atmosphere, with a zinc bar top.

Family was in town to see a show at The Sandusky State Theater. The restaurant is directly across the street from the theater which allows for parking and dining prior to the show and then just walking across the street. There are no other comparable restaurants within walking distance, only those offering more of a sports bar feel, so we... More

Zinc is very helpful in meeting our needs as Vegans. Just give them a call and let them know you are coming, and you will be delighted with the incredible meal they create for you.

We frequently go to Zinc if we want a great meal. It's a quaint restaurant. We like the atmosphere. The wine and drinks are very good. We had Zambooca for an after dinner drink and they gave a generous pour.
