    Restaurant has direct access to/from Usher Hall. Taste card users can only dine after 7.30 p.m. which allowd theatre goers to dine. Consequently the atmosphere is a little quiet, but as we were a party of 4 this was not a particular issue. Food and service were first class and prices perfectly reasonable. Will happily go back again. "

    Previously we had the place to ourselves and the service was great and the food spectacular... This time it was very busy. Usually that means service and food suffers but not at this restaurant. Food is just as good

    This is the place is use as the benchmark

    for steaks and the owner is always happy to meet any weird little request.. 5* "

    We will go here again for sure. The food was excellent and the service was great. We booked for 7.30pm as this is when you can use the taste card from, and I got the feeling that most people visit here before then as its right next to the Usher Hall, so folk will be in early for pre-theatre food, hence the 4* for atmosphere. If you like a dining experience to be slightly quieter around this time though, then this place is for you. No problem at all using the tastecard. Thanks for a great evening :) "

    Had a great lunch here with my daughter. Perfect welcoming service and no problem at all using Tastecard. Atmosphere was fairly quiet but it was lunchtime though I did find the TV behind the bar showing world news a little distracting and unnecessary for the venue.

    Food was great, fairly simple but well cooked and served generous portions, tasty and well presented. Good sea food options and grilled steak was perfect. Too full for pudding.

    Would certainly consider another visit as it was great value with the card. Would be busy and atmospheric I imagine pre-theatre but watch for restrictions on card use then. "

    My partner and I regularly eat at Zucca using our tastecard. The steak is fantastic and is the yardstick that we measure all other steaks we eat in the city by and we love the staff that are very friendly and great at remembering you. Always busy this is a popular place for pre-theatre meal but it is also perfect for a relaxed evening dinner. Wines are lovely too and they hold regular wine tasting and dinner events. Highly recommend this restaurant for tasty, high quality food. "
