Unforgettable Dining Experience at Zarak – A Must-Visit! I had the pleasure of dining at Zarak for the first time in July with a group of five people, each of us with different dietary restrictions – gluten-free, dairy-free, coconut-free, and vegetarian. While I initially felt overwhelmed by the menu, our server, Sanmeet, turned what could have been a stressful situation into a seamless and enjoyable experience. She took the time to carefully listen to our restrictions and, in less than a minute, curated the perfect menu for us, ensuring we could enjoy our time together without worrying about what to order. Her recommendations were spot on, and the variety of cocktails was equally impressive! From the moment we stepped into the restaurant, the entire team made us feel welcome and cared for. The level of attentiveness was beyond compare. One detail that stood out to me was how the staff intuitively timed their service – they approached us only during natural pauses in our conversations, which I deeply appreciated. At one point, I needed a napkin, and just as I was about to ask, one of the staff members approached me, and it felt like they had read my mind. It’s those small details that really made the experience special. Now, the food was incredible, but what made the evening truly unforgettable was the exceptional level of customer service. Towards the end of the night, everyone except me ordered dessert because I couldn’t find anything on the menu that was both dairy-free and coconut-free, which I was fine with. Sanmeet noticed and immediately went above and beyond to accommodate me. Within minutes, she brought out a delicious pistachio gelato, which had no gluten, coconut, or dairy – and it was on the house! That thoughtful gesture spoke volumes about her dedication to making sure everyone had a wonderful time. What’s even more impressive is that when my partner and I returned to Zarak a month and a half later for drinks and dinner, Sanmeet remembered us. The genuine smile on her face when I greeted her by name made it clear that this restaurant isn’t just about serving great food – it’s about creating lasting relationships with their guests. Sanmeet’s warmth, attention to detail, and genuine care for her guests left an incredible impression on me, and I’ve been raving about Zarak to everyone I know. If you ever visit, I highly recommend asking for her – she truly made our dining experience unforgettable. I look forward to returning again and again!

From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed by the staff’s kindness. Their matcha is unbelievably smooth, and the pastries are just right not overly sweet but still satisfying. The fact they accommodate gluten-free and dairy-free diets is a huge bonus. It’s a bit small inside, but I’ve always managed to find a seat when I come.

Wow! I brought my 13 yr old out to breakfast, and found this cute little coffee, café, bistro? Kranky's has a little of everything, and it is mostly made there, fresh! The owner and waitstaff were super friendly, kind(helped us find a tasty choice for me(I have Celiac), and had a joyful small-talk conversation with our daughter about her choices on a future pet :) Thank you, Cat, Hope? and ummm, dagnabit! The owner!! I know, I know her name, it is just out of my reach right now.

Such a cute study area. Never too loud, great food and drinks (including gluten free items!). The only downside is it can be hard to find a table during peak hours, but that’s to be expected. Love it here!
