More information on Chez Zee
Many northwest restaurants belong to over-produced "high concept" chains -- you know, splashy decor, vaguely ethnic food -- but this neighborhood bakery/bistro is a charming exception. The dining room, with its whimsical artwork, its many windows, and enclosed front patio, is the antithesis of stuffy in every sense. And it would be tough to bring someone here who couldn't find something to like on the eclectic menu -- crunchy, fried dill pickles, perhaps, or tasty tequila-lime grilled chicken. In fact, it's hard to find a culinary category in which Chez Zee doesn't shine. It topped the "Best American," "Best Dessert," and "Best Soup" categories in the Austin Chronicle readers' poll. But this place is particularly renowned for its weekend brunches -- peach Bellinis with crème brûlée French toast, anyone? -- and, yes, those stellar desserts. It's also open much later than most Austin restaurants, and features some of the best live jazz in town. Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
