After a flight from NYC and unpacking at the hotel we all went to Le Zoo together with my daughter’s 10 month old who had never flown before. Everyone was tired and wondered how the dinner would be. It was as good as it could be. Friendly and helpful hostess, a lovely and efficient waitress and good food. We did not have to rush out but instead could relax while we ate. Good Branzino, Tasty Grilled salmon, beautiful Chicken paillard, and other good stuff including baba rum. Great job, Le Zoo! Thank you!

I am usually not fond of dining in large groups. But because Claudia was so attentive, responsive and professional, I felt as if though she was there just for me. Not surprised when the other guest shared how wonderful their experience was also because of Claudia’s etiquette. It’s almost as if she could read our minds. Not once did we have to look up and around and ask our chef to get our server to refresh our drink or fill our water.
