Restaurant ZININ — Restaurant in Oisterwijk

Good, tasty food, I'd say 4 stars, really terrible service, 0 stars. So, overall it gets 2 stars from me. But I guess it is what you get when your waiting staff are all students, who have no idea what are they doing & what hospitality really is. 4 waiters in the restaurant, 13 tables, including ours, most of them were having just drinks, I've checked. We got a table quickly, around us we had 3 unclean tables. When after 1,5 hrs we were leaving, those tables were still not cleaned. Plates, glasses, napkins were still on the table. Had to fight the urge to go & clean them myself. It took them 25 min since our arrival to take our food order & then after another 40 min wait I've asked one of the chefs inside, where is our food, but he went all defensive & said it's been only 40 min. I mean 40 minutes for a salad & a burger. It is just a bit too long in my opinion. And obviosly there was no 'oh, sorry for a bit longer wait' or 'here's a complimentary glass of wine for you', nada!!! You can kill a cow & make fresh burgers in 40 minutes. So, we are done with Zinin, left really disappointed. But Hey, try it out, maybe you'll be...

This is a review over the service that we received at this restaurant. The food is good though I did have to send my steak back as I asked for rare and got medium. But what was even more unsatisfactory was the wait from our first course to our second course. One whole hour went by and still no food. We asked the staff and they came back with sorry we forgot your meals. And that was that. No real apology or a free drink to make amends. We got the bill and to top it off they charged us for drinks we did not even have. So steak was overcooked. Over an hours wait from our first course to our second course and charged us for drinks we did not have. Plus they did not care that any of this happened. Dare I say the four of us will not be eating there again. Note anyone choosing the something nice by the coffee pudding for 6 euros. You get 4 small chocolates for 6 euro and the coffee is extra which is in my opinion...

Lovely little place in downtown Oisterwijk. The staff was very friendly (especially the young man who served us) and they catered to our (vegan) wishes.

The vegan vegetable risotto was delicious, as were the vegan lentil tacos!

Would give five stars if they had more vegan-friendly items. Still, I would highly recommend this...
