We received a recommendation from the staff at the bed and breakfast where we stayed. A relatively small menu of tapas choices, but they were all fantastic. We both agreed that it was the best meatballs we had ever had. Trully amazing. Try the house Tempranillo too.

We are self professed "foodies" and this place was outstanding! When eating Tapas, we always ask our server to surprise us starting with 3 items and keep em coming til we get full. Our server Brittain was impecable with his choices and service! Can't praise this restaurant enough...

Cool place with great tapas and a terrific wine list. Servers were friendly though a little slow. Get there by 7p or so if you want a table on the weekends, otherwise, enjoy some of their delicious wine offerings while you wait for a table.

Great food, great service, busy atmosphere. Definately worth the visit. A little cramped, but ok. Easy access from all directions and an easy walk.

I was in the mood for paella and happened across this restaurant. They offered two kinds, I opted for the paella del Ida, with chorizo, clams and lamb. An odd combination, but it worked. And, best of all, they made a one person portion. The tastes were varied and I enjoyed it a lot. My daughter ordered ceviche and enjoyed... More

Zuzu is a wild party for the palate. I'm crazy nuts for small tastings so their Menu is exactly what I enjoy most when dining out. Zuzu throws maximum flavor at their plates and doesn't hold back on heat/spice/acid/smoke and texture. Avocado Gazpacho was cool crisp and ethereal, Sweet Scallops seared/sliced/lightly pickled, Sardines burned like you hate them and sprinkled... More

Zuzu is a tapas place right in the downtown area. Nice food, but nothing particularly special. The service was adequate but not stellar, and the dishes came out slowly in a random order, making it hard to enjoy the different flavors. The sangria, which was recommended, was overly sweet and detracted from the dishes.

One of our hometown favorites is Zuzu. We recommend it often. Right on Main Street in the revitalizing downtown, Zuzu serves innovative small plates that nicely represent its approach to Spanish and surrounding area food. The service is brisk and attentive. The prices are fair and allow you to sample a number of dishes without over spending. Quality is always... More

We went without a reservation on a Wed nite and got seated at the last free table upstairs. It is neat place. The food is excellent, not necessarily traditional Spanish tapas but in some cases, like the fingerling potatoes, it is even better. The service is friendly without being overpowering. Nice casual restaurant.
