Zizou in California

"The food is fantastic, I can’t wait to come back! We had the Souk Salad, Short Rib (oh my gosh ), hanger steak, couscous, and pavlova. For 2 people it was a lot but we’re excited for our leftovers!"

"We visited for the first time with our family and loved everything about it. The atmosphere was beautiful and exotic, and the interior design was stunning. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, and the food was delicious. Personally, I especially loved the Moroccan salad and the calamari and steak. They were absolutely delicious and full of flavor. The outdoor seating was especially beautiful. I highly recommend sitting outside if you can. We had such a lovely time and will definitely be back again!"

"We were a walk in with zero expectations considering the neighborhood this is located in, but wow -- it was lovely. The selections on both food and wine menus were limited, but very good. Much like a proper european restaurant, they are not trying to be everything and OK at it, they do a few things on which they excel. Atmosphere was great, much more Silverlake than Lincoln Heights. I recommend highly and will be back."

"Best Moules Marienere in LA; they serve it with fries and bread. The Chicken Tagine, Morrocan salad and short rib appetizer are not to be skipped. The patio is magical."

"This is a 10/10. The entire ambiance is insane, the interior design and music is just the cherry on top. Food is so delicious, service is top tie. The steak frites is my favorite dish, this is my new go-to spot."

"Five stars just because it is such a cool spot though I do have some notes below. Zizou is both a beer/wine bar and mostly outdoor restaurant with a special event patio in back. On our recent Friday night visit found it busy with walk-ins being told that they were booked up for the night. It's a French-north African vibe, specifically the vibe of the north African culture that developed in France after the decolionalization of French North Africa in the aftermath of World War II, so the food is both French and North African in influence. Prices were very good for la. Food was good but not spectacular, the calamari was over salted and the piece of meat they picked for my steak frites was poorly selected. C'est la vie. I would certainly return and my hard to please boo gave the vibes a 10/10. Well done!"

"Immaculate vibes here, and a welcome addition to the neighborhood. Menu was simple, drink menu also easy to understand / easy to order. Service was excellent and they gave good recs. The order we got - the steak frites ($30) - had excellent fries but the steak wasn’t well prepared, with a rubbery texture. The tapenades were incredible ($12), as were the seasonal vegetables with toasted bread ($13). Enjoyed these with two skyduster IPA’s ($8). Prices were reasonable and the outdoor dining experience was lovely. Will come back!"

"Great service, cute patio oasis, really tasty food, and a nice wine selection. We had the Moroccan salad, spinach puff pastry, chicken and apricot tagine, mussels, and apple tartine. Go check em out!"
