Marvellous dining experience with great ambience.
We shared a truffle fries, which is the usual. But we were wowed by the iberico pork steak, tenderloin as well as the seafood paella. The dishes were done perfectly and their sides went very well with the dishes.
Enjoyed their tiramisu and chocolate lava cake. The lava was flowing very nicely and the layers of tiramisu was great.
Their drinks were nice too especially the sangria. Do try Kuching only ‘Tuak’ drink, which is like a sweet white wine.
The restaurant was very thoughtful and even dimmed the lights after a certain hour for us to drink.
Great service, great food, great ambience. Definitely not the cheapest but value for money!

We had dinner here on Friday, under an hour before the kitchen was closing. This didn't matter though, as we still received excellent service. Food was top notch - loved every dish. Cocktails were excellent and very well priced, too.

Quite simply our favourite eating/drinking spot in Kuching. We first came here 8 years ago on the personal recommendation of the receptionist at our hotel. We were not disappointed then and we were not disappointed this year when we returned once again.
The place has a brilliant vibe, the food is truly excellent, as are the craft cocktails. Staff are cool and super-friendly. We just love Zinc! I urge you to visit - you will have a great time.

-Location/Parking
A corner restaurant located by the busy road, kinda hard to find parking but it's ok to park further and walk.
-Decor/Ambience
It's quite cosy, they have indoor and outdoor seats. Do book in advance if you want to secure seatings during peak timings. Their online booking is very easy to use.
-Food
They serve a variety of western-local fusion food. Ordered their Pork Risotto, was very nicely seasoned risotto and melt in your mouth char siew, with crispy and salty skin. Also tried their creamy brandy pasta, the prawns were fresh and sauce was superbly creamy. But can't really taste the brandy in it.
-Service
The service here is excellent, waiters are very attentive and polite. The food also came quite fast.
-Final Thoughts
It's a nice place to have friends and family gatherings, just remember to book ahead of time.

We ordered the tenderloin steak (medium rare), vongole pasta and the carbonara pasta. We were quite disappointed as the pasta noodles are undercooked and salty. Noodles are rubbery. The tenderloin steak doesn’t taste fresh, is too chunky and very difficult to cut. As for appetizer, we ordered the fried calamari and the truffle fries. The calamari tastes like they reheated it out of a box of frozen calamari’s. The truffle fries is probably the best dish out of all that we have ordered. Iced chocolate is quite powdery and bland. However, the service is excellent and the atmosphere is pretty nice.

Great atmosphere for meet ups. Iberico Pork Steak is chefs kiss, very tender and juicy. Tenderloin Carpaccio has this refreshing taste from all the cheese and lemon. Gave Crepe Suzette a try and I found it so addictive because they have the sugar caramelised on top of the orange while you eat that with the syrup and vanilla ice cream. They also hv The Chita whisky which seldomly found here in Kuching. Overall experience is great!

Crepe Suzette
We strayed a bit far from our way trying to find dinner and ended up in this restaurant. What a gem! Atmosphere was great, the food selection was interesting and quite variable; we had bacon-wrapped shrimps and the seafood paella, and Chardonnay by the glass.
We absolutely loved everything we ordered; the appetizer was tasty without being dry. The paella, so tasty! It served two (very hungry) people just right, not too light and not too overbearing as well.
If we stayed longer in Kuching we'd love to visit this place again!

Seafood Paella
Quite an established eatery specialising in French, European and Mediterranean cuisine located in the city centre at a prominent position of a busy roundabout. Thus understandably car parking can be tricky to find here, but well worth the challenge . Although the menu may seem diverse, yet somehow the menu selections are well designed and crafted so that in spite of which ever order that they are still complimentary and not adverse to each other. Quite a welcome from the usual and typical western cuisine randomly available in town. The food in itself was well executed and beautifully presented. Further to fuse it all together, is the overall ambience of the place, setting and staff, that makes it an interesting and intimate place for dining experience that will transport you as if one was on an exotic vacation location. The staff were friendly and attentive. And a well deserved mention is that the washroom here was impeccably maintained to be spick and clean .

Dined here 24/6/23 with two friends. Ordered the toast skagen, tenderloin steak, and lava cake. All three were delicious. Service was also good. Highly recommend this place if you are in Kuching.
