We love eclectic food and Cafe Zola did not disappoint. It's within walking distance from Downtown Home and Garden which was our our reason for a trip to downtown Ann Arbor. Reservations are highly recommended and we were reserved a nice table by the window. I ordered a Truffle Mousse Breve which was an amazing flavor combo of hazelnut and mocha. For breakfast, I ordered French Toast with Michigan Rhubarb-Strawberry Compote and Orange Mascarpone which was just as good as it sounds! Fresh ingredients and lots of fruit and complex flavors. The meal was great, although the waitstaff could be a little more friendly and courteous. That's the only thing keeping this from being a five star review. Staff did not move aside as I passed them going to the restroom and as we were leaving, a server was coming in the door from serving outside. She busted right in the door and did not offer up an "excuse me" or "have a nice day". FYI, she was empty-handed.

If you are looking for a $3.99 breakfast platter, this is not the place for you. However, if you are looking for quality farm-to-table food with an eclectic twist, this is the place for you! We will definitely be back!
