      This place is our favorite! My husband and I came here on our first date and now we stop in here every time we have something special to celebrate The food is good, the pizza is phenomenal, and the drinks are made strong! The service is always great, the atmosphere is welcoming, and everyone is super friendly. I can't say enough good things about Z's!

      Came here for vollyball night as there's a setup behind the restaurant. The food was great,

      We had 2 platters- both land and sea- Catfish with ribs and the other shrimp and ribs. Food was great though the ribs bit on the fatty side but still very flavorful and fall off the bone.

      Inside and outside the service was great and prompt.

      Only thing is the kitchen closes at 9 on a weekend.

      The fish and chips were phenomenal! Food came out fast and hot! Coleslaw was delicious, fries were cooked to perfection. I'll definitely be returning to try more things on the menu. Very cozy vibe. Our server Wendy was amazing!

      Came here with a group of folks from a business class course.

      The square pizzas looked decent. We weren't here for food, mostly for drinks and a social gathering after class.

      We sat out on the patio. The port-a John's out on the patio is a bit unpleasant scenery though. The patio is chilled otherwise.

      Prices are reasonable and service was decent.

      Gave them 1 more shot - done ! A waste of a great patio ! NO FAULT of hard working waitresses,staff. Owner - mike? Can kill any type of fun - runs around bitching about anything. 3 rd time here -that they always claim credit card machines are down- really - just say cash only! Burger I had tasted good. Server was funny and good- just can't past the always ANGRY owner - take a breath & enjoy life !

      Diamond in the rough! Food was delicious and the service was even better. Arthur and Marcus were very helpful and attentive. Menu had plenty to choose from at more than reasonable prices. Check for daily specials too. Nice cozy place. Played Motown music. To top it off, beer was great, workers were super helpful and friendly, and we were brought free samples of an absolutely delicious minestrone soup without having to ask. Awesome vibe to the place as well.

      *ANOTHER TIME*

      I thought I couldn't fall more in love with Z's Villa... until we hosted our wedding rehearsal dinner there! The food was amazing and our guests loved the casual night, outdoor games and music. The staff was so kind and helpful, it was literally the easiest thing we did in the entire planning process! It was threatening to storm that night, and though I've held events in their nice private room upstairs, we really hoped to be outside. Steve was right on top of things, and even without me asking, he promised to do whatever he could to have us outdoors. They were ready to move us at a moment's notice, but the rain held, and any sprinkles were combated by the patio tents.
      The bartenders and wait staff were wonderful, as usual. If I so much as looked around, one of them would make sure I didn't need anything. And Steve even divided our leftovers into different containers so any late night guests could take home a doggy bag with a mix of food. The thoughtful touches were a huge sign of their professionalism and devotion to their restaurant.

      Thanks again!
