Beautiful view, ok table service however let down by poor lunch menu.Please include simple, fresh, delicious healthy options to match such a beautiful location. Forget the chips and introduce smart unforgettable bites people come back for and not just for the view. Yes, you do have lobster and mixe...
An old girlfriend took me here for dinner recently . I was super impressed with the standard of food especially the sea food . Also have a great selection of boutique beer and nice wines
Really good food I really enjoyed it. The portions were a bit small that's my only critique
Terrible customer service. My friend and I were waiting for takeaways coffees more than 15 mins and they also do not allow us to cancel and refund orders. Their boss just kept saying us to be patient.
Wow !!! What a magic site w food & service to match. Loved our treat there & felt we were 'on holiday' !! Well done
Perfectly positioned, South end of South Cronulla beach. Good service, food, relaxing
Went for breakfast on a Saturday morning and ,not one to complain ,we sat there for 50 mins along the bench right at the kitchen watching others come in and get their meals before us while we waited and waited until finally a staff member must of realised we hadn t got our breakfast yet and checked ...
Really disappointing, as we go for brunch regularly and it's pretty good. We had dinner here recently and the service was sub-par, the cocktails we ordered at the beginning of the meal didn't come out until after entrees, and the food was mediocre at best. Won't be going for dinner again.
Pretty average food for premium price. Was blistering hot in there with almost no ventilation...quite an ordinary experience really.
Average food and really bad customer service. Staff were not friendly and made our very special celebration end on a sour note. I wouldn't recommend this place.
Overall good place to enjoy a meal. Fantastic location. Wish there was more parking in the area though. Can we very hard to get a seat on the weekend.
Absolutely love it here for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Wouldn't it be fun to just stay all day and eat, swim and play at Zimzalas
Love this local spot for a glorious outlook on the beach
Vege lasagne obviously re-heated was cold on the bottom (out of the fridge cold) and half the top layer was rock hard. Really poor for $29. Most of the menu is overpriced.
Great food, great service and great views across the beach.
Great location, right at the beach. Really good breakfast. Always worth going there.
We enjoyed a very lovely lunch on a stormy day - had great views of the surf crashing into the rocks from our window seat.
The waitress was absolutely lovely and took care of our every need, all with a smile. The food was delicious, couldn't fault a thing. We enjoyed the seafood tasting for 2 as ...
Went for a wedding reception and found the staff to be amazing and the food to be even better
Great staff and a pleasant outlook. The food was delicious and well presented.
Not the cheapest not the quickest, but certainly the best.
Wonderful atmosphere with wonder food. Amazing bloody Mary s.
Menu looks great but food just average and overpriced. Staff very slow and not focused. Had to wait for our drinks for 40 min. Cocktails are awful. There are much better places around. Won t be back again.
Brilliant service, tasty breakfast, normally wonderful view except the local council is conducting work there at the moment.
Stunning ocean front location . Excellent food and service . A great way to start the day .
We began with a great coffee, but that was where the greatness stopped. We got our breakfast which was missing a few things that we ordered, which came later after we notified them of the errors. To top it off four out of four poached eggs were rock hard. We ended up getting a second breakfast up th...
Shocking service!!!
I still can t believe the way I was treated! Never ever have I received more appalling service!! I never write bad reviews but this experience was so outrageous that it needs to be given a review. It was an extremely hot day and, as we walked into Zimzala, I felt physically ill ...
Their oysters are very bad. Roughly opened. So they were filled with little pieces from the shell. Also it took 1 hour for our meal to arrive. And we got charged 15% surcharge for it being a holiday. Which is fine. But our meal was awful.
Always a good value meal that tastes yummy and sensational views
FANTASTIC PLACE GREAT STAFF
French theme tonight.
We didn't grab food here and instead just got drinks. Prices were about what you would expect and the Pash Dash was tasty. We sat outside and looked out at the ocean. They did cram quite a few tables outside so as long as you are prepared for that you should be good.
Great location, friendly and very helpful staff. We had a light lunch of toasted sourdough bread with a portion of chilli prawns and a dish of mozzarella and tomato. All perfectly cooked and presented. Washed down with a glass of Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon and copious tap water.
They even ru...
Very poor overall and VERY VERY EXPANSIVE. The only good thing is the view but you can enjoy the same view from the esplanade eating fish and chips! The waiting was ridiculous and the noise was ridiculous too!
Fantastic food, unbelievably lovely staff, a bit pricey but you're paying for the view...
Best breakfast location for this kinda $$. 10m to the water line. Great view, great staff, good breakfast options for medium $. I take all my of of town guests here for brunch & have been a regular Friday morning guest for 7 years. Don't tell anyone else. Keep it a special secret.
Good food, prices and service. And then there is the view
Felt very comfortable....seated with social distancing.
Entree meals delish, however my main course of Moroccan Couscous was so disappointing - it was inedible. Waitress was not imoressed with my feedback however we found out when settling the billI that they had removed the cost of the meal. Took friends there from Singapore for the fantastic location, ...
Nice food and friendly staff, you are paying a premium for the view though.
Great food and service. Crab cakes are awesome and the chicken salad too
We had lunch there and loved their food. Nice view and professional staffs.
Very pleasant. Middle of the road cuisine and priced accordingly. A view to die for. Service not pressured. My fish pie was full of prawns, white fish and salmon. My friend had prawn linguine and she said it was lovely. Thank you. This is the second time I have lunched at Zimzala in seven days...
Upon our late arrival for breakfast, soo much catching up to talk about, my daughter and i were greeted with " Hello, we were waiting for you, we've kept the kitchen open for you" we were late for breakfast. Seated at the table with magnificent ocean views (there are no bad views) enjoyed a genero...
Lovely birthday lunch had today with my wife...fabulous and helpful staff, the seafood pie was very tasty and generous in size, but the best part was the amazing views! Thank you again! Will be back for sure...:)
November 2019. Had a terrific 10 course dinner here with my wife. They really went above expectations to cater to my personal diet issue - Celiac - gluten intolerance. Only two components they delivered weren't able to be gluten but that was fine with me. My wife and I agreed that every course was ...
Came for a Saturday breakfast + was not disappointed. We were able to get a table with a beautiful view of Cronulla beach. It was busy but not over crowded and the staff were super friendly + quick with the service.
The prices were reasonable for the amount of food you get. I had the eggs Benedic...
Friendly waitstaff, yum food. A little too noisy when busy.
A lovely place for lunch, food fantastic, view glorious and service was excellent
Ordered the seafood plate and was disappointed for the price I paid the value wasn't there. On my second visit was told that if we had a group of more than 6 we couldn't BYO this doesn't make sense if we just separate the tables and have two bookings we can bring wine?
You know your not satisfied when everyone has to go to Oporto on the way home.
Good food.
Expensive.
Great three courses kids and parents hunger exists still
Teeny tiny servings.
Even with three courses eaten
Can't beat that view. Food was decent and the staff were pretty attentive.
Great food and service with a perfect view of the beach
Food overpriced for cafe style environment, good location
The owner of this restaurant would make Basil Fawlty proud with his arrogance & rudeness.
We had to send back a meal because it was way too salty (everyone at the table tasted it & agreed) but he still expected us to pay for it & it's replacement dish! I asked how he could possibly expect us to pa...
Beautiful location right on the beach, very nice food, generous setvings
We arrived and the man at the door didn t even greet us with any respect. We kindly asked if they served breakfast and were rudely told no, and that we didn t have a booking. We were not welcomed and no manners were exchanged. Their poor customer service has deterred me from ever going there again. ...
Great venue on the beach service good food excellent
The food was absolutely amazing it was fresh and tasty and very enjoyable. The decor was very nice and fresh. The servicee was great and they would always ask if I needed anything.
Great for dinner and lovely view being by the water. Helpful staff. lots of options and caters for gluten free. Not cheap but not the most expensive in the area ($35 for a main, $60-65 pp for a main, drink and dessert).
Excellent view of South Cronulla beach. Fantastic menu and service
Jazz and Shiraz nights are a good idea, great view but the menu and service can be hit and miss
Friendly but efficient service and a good atmosphere.
Sit watching the waves while enjoying good food, great ambience and friendly staff
Never a disappointment or wrong step at Zimzala s! Such a wonderful venue for a simple coffee and cake to a magnificent special lunch or dinner. My all time favourite Shire restaurant
Great view! Fab coffee. My poached eggs were overcooked but otherwise breakkie was yum.
Booked early in the week for a nice saturday night to celebrate a valentines dinner with my wife and to have a seat against the window. We arrived and was seated against the wall and the staff member stated we had to be out by 8am ???? only a hour & a half to finish dinner. ( not empressed as this w...
Great food.
Friendly staff. Real Friendly NOT fake Friendly!
Great location.
Will be going back.
I have been many other times before, but last night I went to celebrate my engagement dinner with my fiance and our families. Dinner was amazing, the service was good and the views are spectacular. I totally recommend this place.
You come here for the view, food is ok but expensive because of the view. We paid $18 for a coffee and a basic bacon an egg roll!
Service was quick, friendly and attentive. Food was fabulous. They managed to fit us in an a very busy night without any hassle. Would love to go back!
Lovely setting by the water front.
Went on a nice & sunny day, place was worth every $ spend.
Amazing food !!! Do try seafood options.
My partner loves coffee& desserts, and she too had a great time
definitely recommend to all.
Been many times, food and service is very good and the best location in the Shire
Nice and relaxed lunch . Hats off for the seafood tasting plate - delicious.
