Greeted as soon as we walked in and the service was great from there. Everyone was very nice and made sure we were happy with everything. Thai ribs so delicious along with the red beans. The salad was even delicious, everything was super fresh. Everyone enjoyed it Tonight shay was our waitress and she did not disappoint! She had the best bubbly personality she kept our drinks full and had great recommendations!

Staff is warm, super friendly and efficient. Paris was looking after us and was so friendly and welcoming. She went over and beyond her duties. She recommended some of the dishes which we chose and we were not disappointed. The food was fantastic. Both my husband and I had the Thai ribs and would 100% recommend them. Also special mention to the manager (John) as it was our first time in the restaurant and made sure we were felt welcomed and happy. If were not leaving NOLA tomorrow we would definitely come back. Thank you so much for your delicious food and your warm welcome.

It was my first time here and I totally loved it. The hostess welcomed me really nice, my waiter Reese was very friendly and respectful, the food delicious (specially the Hummus at first), and even the manager was very attentive, the dessert was on the house for being my first time there. I will totally come back!

The food on the dinner and lunch menu is amazing! I've never tried something I didn't love. The corn grits and red beans and rice are the items we get the most. The rotisserie chicken is the best I've ever had. BUT, the dessert menu is really lacking. We have had all 3 of the desserts they have and they were blah and not worth the price. How can a restaurant with such amazing food have such terrible dessert? Zea's....plz tell the higher up people in charge to do better!

While visiting family in Kenner we ate at Zea Rotisserie and Bar. Our family are regulars to this restaurant so it comes highly recommended. They also have a gluten free menu for my husband!! This is a very nice place to eat!! Everything everyone ordered looked great. My husband had the Casablanca chicken. He loved it. (hummus tasted amazing). I had the Gulf Shrimp and Grits. Soo good! Our family members had Breaux Bridge, Trout Lafitte and Sirloin Beef platter along with grits and red beans/ rice. Our family is correct in saying this is a great restaurant to eat!!

We had been wanting to try this place for a while and finally went. I expected the food to be delicious (and it was!!). But we were so pleasantly surprised by the service we received. Reece, our server, was so nice and helpful and chatted with us and answered any questions that we had. Also, John, the manager heard that it was our first time here and took the time to come and greet us and brought us a sample of Thai ribs to try when he heard that I had a hard time choosing between them and what I got. At the end of the meal they even sent out a complimentary bread pudding! Will definitely be back!! Great experience!

This place is great for relaxed family atmosphere and offers a great menu variety with delicious New Orleans eats. Stay away from the Greens and you’re good. Every thing else was very nice. I’d come back often. The staff is extra friendly as if they were trained by Disney .... This is a place you can just have fun and relax without feeling out of place for wearing a nice short set or dressy collar shirt.
