Zia's Social

We used to love the previous Zia’s but this place is just as good. The outdoor area is awesome, it’s much bigger and the same great food. I’m also gluten free and they have a ton of great options including a great gluten free pizza. Been there many times and taken food to go and it’s always good

Had my wedding luncheon here in September 2024 and could not recommend it enough for a small wedding! Thank you so much to all the amazing staff who helped with our event. We reserved a section in the 4 seasons room for our luncheon and they also gave us some space on patio that we used for our short ring exchange ceremony. You can also rent out the whole space if you have a larger event. The space is so beautiful I didn't need to add any wedding decorations. The patio area has wonderful flowers and the 4 seasons room has brick walls with English ivy and other lovely decorations (plus I love the bike!). The great part about the 4 seasons room is that they open all the windows if it is nice outside, so you have flexibility with the weather and the 4 seasons room is heated. They were very accommodating! They made us a menu with all vegetarian and vegan/gluten free options and made labels for everything. The guests loved the food and drinks. We got so many compliments. One of our vegan guests said it was the best vegan food they ever had at a wedding! We had fried Brussel sprouts (so good!), bruschetta, shaved cauliflower salad, avocado salad, eggplant parmigiana, margarita pizza (from a brick oven!) , and pasta primavera. And the fresh bread baked there was delicious. We got our desserts from Central Continental Bakery. They kept the desserts in the refrigerator and brought them out for us when it was time for desert. They also gave us a discount when sampling the food options for our event which was so nice! At the end they packed up all of our food in containers and we have been enjoying all the leftovers. I also really like how transparent the event prices are online. I had been really stressed out trying to find a place for a small wedding that fit my budget (I truly cannot stand the wedding industrial complex!), had some outdoor space, and vegetarian/vegan options. I honestly almost gave up looking for places in the Chicago area (especially since I am out of town) until I got lucky and found this place. I am so happy I did! Another plus is that you can walk here from the Harlem station (it took me about 20ish minutes when I first visited) and it is right next to the Norwood Park train station. Parking is easy to find. And the event space is on the first floor which is good for guests that may not be able to use the stairs. This place will always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you to so much to everyone at Zia's! I would give you 10 stars if I could.
