Great cocktails, fun spot

Review: This is a great spot for having after work cocktails and trying out new drinks. Service is usually great, I'm not sure I get these reviewers who try to crucify a place for one incident.

Great cocktails & atmosphere

Review: Zig Zag is the place to go to find expertly crafted cocktails without the super steep prices of places like Vessel or Tini Bigs. The Master and the Hound cocktail was great. Went on a recent Saturday night with a group of about 5 and we had a great time. The waitresses were super nice and helpful to recommend drinks and the place was busy but not too packed. Great place to take someone who loves classic old fashioned cocktails in a hip setting.

Best drinks in Seattle
Posted by fletch at Citysearch
Review: When I first went to Zig Zag a year ago, I’d never had a real cocktail before, and didn’t know half of the products listed in the drinks menu. Murray was incredibly sweet and made the whole experience unintimidating, pouring many samples for my friend and me and answering my numerous questions. As I continued to go there, I came to realize that their level of service isn’t just reserved for newbies; they have consistently been attentive and helpful. It’s low key and provides quality without pretensions, and it’s easy to sit there longer than you expected. I’ve had many a night where “just one drink” ended with me closing the bar and stumbling to a cab.The cocktails are obviously the major draw, and I love having any of the fellas make me a whiskey-based concoction of their choosing. But the food is pretty good as well, and I inevitably end up ordering the alligator gumbo, calamari, or phyllo tart. It’s kind of my favorite bar, and the only thing that makes me cranky is how busy it gets on Fridays and Saturdays, but I suppose I can’t change the fact that all of Seattle recognizes its awesomeness.

Very Poor Customer Service Seconded

Review: Everywhere we ask in Seattle we are always told by industry "in the knows" that Zig Zag is the place to go to get a classic hand crafted cocktail. My husband and I went a few months ago and had an ok time. We were able to get a seat at the bar and Murray was working that night. It is a sight tosee to watch him work.I recently returned with a group of friends with the promise they'd see Murray at work. Well, we got up to the door and even though the appearance inside the room looked sporadically populated we were told there was a 20-30 minute wait. That did not sit well with a couple males in our group. Knowing they were upset the guy at the door was able to get us in. We were docked up to one of the very slight fence style drink rest tops right next to the door. About 15 minutes later the couple at the bar next to us got up to leave. As in most bars, we thought since the seats were open we would be free to take them over. But, oh no apparently a couple that was sitting at a table in another location of the room was waiting for these spots. We were rudely told to get out of the seats by a gentleman with greasy slicked back hair. Upset with this whole incident once again we voiced our dissatifaction with how the whole thing was being handled. To be right to the point, the greasy slicked back employee told us that "if we didn't like it we could get the f**k out". With that said we left and will NEVER go back. Too bad the staff at Zig Zag think that their establishment is "all that" and feel it is ok to talk to patrons that way. You won't win many friends or patrons with that attitude.
