As always, I will start with the good.The manager was super courteous and polished in his manner. They made up for their delay with a free desert. They were diligent with their screening for vaccination before admitting for inside dining.We ordered a steak and some Thai chicken with red sauce. The food was mediocre at best. I found the toilet dirty.The service was super slow. The waiters paid no attention to us. We waited for a waiter for a good 20 minutes and then until I had to walk over to the manager asking for someone to take our order. They missed bringing my drink and never came back to check if we needed anything else or even if everything was OK.

One of the vintage favorites thats been serving for quite long now and good thing is they have kept pace with time and remain among better choices in Lahore. Food is good and fresh and served well in time. Continental dishes are authentic in taste. Ambiance is good both indoor and outdoor. Place is generally quite busy specially on weekends so be prepared for some waiting time. Overall its worth visit and recommended.

The Environment was Ok but they should not allow people to Smoke when the tables are so closed and you have your kids with you.Not very impressed with the Staff they were not as friendly as the restaurants in the surroundings. The Quality of food was Appreciable no doubt. Over all its a 3 star experience there is a little room for improvement.

I have been there for the first time during lunch hours. Due to pandemic, outdoor seating arrangements were made. It was a tent and they had the coolers on to diminish the heat however the heat was bit too much to have a lunch outside. We didnt have any choice since some friends were joining in in their lunch break.1. It was too crowded, during the current pandemic, I was bit scared to see so many people at one place, it was technically outdoors but due to the tents it was quite closed.2. Our order was served except mine, I have asked after 10 minutes and my food came after 20 min when everyone was almost done.3. Taste was just ok. I have ordered chicken with cashewnuts.

Never disappointed to have food here. I think it’s their consistency of quality that compels to visit this place once in a while. A very mature and well trained staff. Ambiance has always been good. Need to reduce the cooking time tho.

Lahore would not be the same without Café Zouk: going strong for 25 years+ with quality, class and an impressively diverse menu to satisfy any palette الحمدلله Outdoor dining recommended.

Zouk has consistently been one of the best eateries in Lahore, so it was disappointing to see what was served. The taste of this Butgandy Chicken was great, but the quantity was absolutely laughable. An appetizer at most restaurants is more filling than this main course. Expect to order at least 2 if you don’t want to leave hungry.

The worst experience ever!Look at the pictures.My daughter vomited afterwards.Whats with the cutlery?The forks cannot pierce, and the knife is like a medieval arrowhead.Bun was bought from local market.Beef was non-existent.Onion and the sauce was splattered everywhere and had a flat taste. See the pictures.All the soups had same base.Chicken pieces were tasteless.Adding lemon grass polluted the whole bowl.Not to mention the indiscriminate use of mushrooms everywhere.And what was this red in the soup!!!Overall, its the worst experience ever.Roadside dhabbas taste better!!

If its fine dine you are looking for blended with the perfect ambiance this is the place you would want to come to. The taste is exactly what it is supposed to be and does not carry the desi touch which is common in most restaurants in Lahore

Excellent place for Chinese & Thai food... Love spicy fiery Thai beef and bread pudding.we are going to zouk cafe since our teens and I must say the taste & quality is absolutely same. Same small cozy type of place and no additions done but I must say it has gone way too expensive almost around 2000 PKR per head so cant visit zouk regularly anymore. I thing I love about zouk is that they keep on changing exterior colours quite regularly 😊

I wanted to try Café Zouk as it is very well renowned. My husband took me for our anniversary. I ordered the Zouk Slider Burgers. I thought it would have a well distinguished taste with the added Parmesan and Blue Cheese. But actually, the burgers tasted very bland and no taste of any cheese. My husband loved his Chinese Beef Dish. The Pasta Alfredo my son ordered was nothing out of the world. We had the Devil’s Chocolate Cake as dessert which was only mediocre. The icing tasted more like palm oil than rich in chocolate. I recommend to go to check it off your bucket list, but not worth to return.

Review №42

Had a really good experience at this eatery. I really liked the location as this cafe is located right at the start of MM Alam road so we did not have to travel through all the rush to reach our destination.Thr cafe was quite full when we reached there but we waited for only about 5 minutes and we got our table. We ordered 2 thai chicken dishes, 2 fresh lime sodas and 2 mint margaritas. Thai dishes were absolutely scrumptious (literally one of the most delicious thai dishes that i ever had in Lahore). Honestly, we did not like fresh lime sodas as those were very very salty so we ordered mint margaritas which tasted pretty good. Staff was very responsive. I would say that i liked but not loved the ambiance as seating was a bit cramped up and music was a bit too loud. But, overall experience was good.Total bill was around Rs. 3500.

An all time favorite! Cant wait to try their hi-tea platter.So finally got to try their hi-tea! Everything on the platter was good except for the desserts. Except for mango dessert the rest was okay. The brownie and lemon tarte were too dry, didnt look and tasted fresh at all. The chocolate mousse wasnt that great either. I wish they can include bread pudding to the platter.However, overall had a great time and enjoyed my tea.

Very very good restaurant with respect to ambiance and decor. Taste is also good but can be improved. I am going there since 2004 and found it always same good quality. Strongly recommended for Lahorians and specially strongly recommended for Karachites who are travelling to Lahore to make feels good thay even in Lahore you can find good ambiance and food together. Happy eating and best of luck. Its slightly different from Cafe Zouk Karachi though both in ambiance and food taste and quality.

It was my very first time going there, for food I will give them 5 stars cause the taste the service everything is perfect. The food I ordered was exactly the way it should be including the taste. Recommended. For the designing of the restaurant they should work on the color of the seats, the green in the seat is taking away the aesthetic look of the place. Rest everything is good.

Presumably, it is difficult to maintain such a long and diverse menu but Café Zouk does an incredulous job at doing so. All the dishes I have ever had are of good quality, flavorful and tasty in their own rights. Furthermore, the service provided by the staff working there is laudable! They diligently follow all SOPs. They rightfully guide and have proper knowledge of the food they are serving. Most importantly, they are quick in addressing any requests, concerns and queries. It is always a wonderful experience to visit Café Zouk.

Ahmad Shahzad (CEO) is doing wonderful job since 1995. One of the best restaurant. Its been years but they have managed the quality. It doesnt required any introduction. Chicken Cashewnut is all time favourite but this time tried their classic fillet mediterranean and it was cooked to perfection. One of the best beef steaks you will have in Lahore.

Cafe Zouk needs no introduction.. on of the oldest cafes of Lahore from late 90s.. lying in the heart of MM Alam road the location is perfect, ambience is always top notch and the staff is always friendly and highly professional. During my recent visit I had Double Decker Beef steak (medium rare) which was served on a layer of hash browns. It was really cooked to perfection and taste wise it was heavenly 😍 Had it with a fresh lime. Enjoyed everything..

Review №81

A safe experience. I mean it’s a makeshift tent outside the restaurant, due to covid, so I didn’t really expect much of an ambiance. The felt grass was a nice touch though.Food at zouk is always a safe bet. The calamari starter was good. The Parmesan garlic bread on the other hand had cheddar cheese on it and it tasted bland and soggy.I had the chicken chilli dry for the main course and there were way too many leafy chilly and veggies compared to the chicken for my liking. It was tasty though. Nothing exceptionally good or bad. The chocolate cake was thick and rich. Just how I like it.If you’re indecisive about where to go, pick zouk. It’s always good value for money.

Once zouk was famous attraction of Lahore. It has deteriorated steadily over the years. The chicken we ordered was too much salty and the veggies were fried in black oil and they almost tasted bitter. Food quality was pathetic. Zouk you also wind up soon if you dont improve.

Review №96

Outdoor seating during covid pandemic is too congested, loud and cold. And everything we ordered today was not good. Buffalo wings were so bad, mint margarita tasted like it was made with expired ingredients, Ethiopian chicken is supposed to be a spicy dish but today it was so tasteless and without any spices; we had to send it back. Even the garlic bread that they serve complimentary was not good. Not a good experience.
