Reviews Summary
Le Zinzolin offers a vibrant dining experience with many praising its authentic Italian-inspired dishes and attentive service, especially for its fresh ingredients like homemade fries and special cocoa desserts. However, some diners have noted inconsistencies in food quality, particularly with steak dishes, and have experienced delays with desserts. The charming canal-side ambiance is a consistent draw, though service can be a point of contention for some.
"We had a wonderful time here in this restaurant in the beautiful city of Avignon. The music was fine, the service was spot on and the food was delicious. A very laid back and relaxed atmosphere in one of the nicest streets in Avignon. Highly recommended!"

"Good dinner, we had starters and salads plus desert (on pics).
Shrimps are great, asparagus I did not like too much
Burrata was excellent
Desert - chocolate one was enjoyable but strawberry and pineapple did not taste fresh"
Natalia Kasyanova
"Le Zinzolin is in a great neighborhood of Avignon, on Rue Des Teinturiers surrounded by wins bars and dessert shops. This is a great place to grab dinner and a drink – just don’t do it at Le Zinzolin. The menu is limited and riddled with average options. The fettuccini and the tuna tartar are both your best bets if you are unfortunate enough to find yourself at Le Zinzolin. Avoid the steak (see photo) at all costs. Easily the worst dish sampled during a recent 12-day trip through France.
While the food is average at best, the service is downright bad. Servers are aggravated by your presence and seemingly resentful of your business. I will accommodate them by not returning."

Locals recommend Le Zinzolin, which is primarily a wine bar but also serves excellent food while L'Offset, in a former printing works (complete with vintage printing press in the main bar area), was taken over recently and offers good, cheap basic fare. Both venues have live music on certain evenings.
