Zingales Billiards & Sports Bar: Reviews & Ratings
Came here because it was across the street from the hotel and the reviews were good. Probably the best Cuban sandwich I’ve ever had and the sweet potato fries were excellent: waffle cut and came with real cinnamon butter. I don’t care anything about pool but this was some of the best food that you will get at a pool hall/dive bar. Employees are friendly,attentive and contribute to a fun atmosphere. If I lived here I would be a regular.
Came here with a few coworkers on my birthday. It was such a great day as I wish I would with a few gift cards and then we head off to Zingales do some billiards. It was tournament night so I was able to see some really good games. We had a really good time as the server was great. We had really good drinks and wings and the seem to be a great spot to hang out so we will definitely be returning on a normal day.
Top notch pool hall with tons of great 9' Diamond tables with tight pockets. Really good food for a pool hall with nice burgers and an excellent blackened shrimp salad when you want to play pool but you're still trying to get some fresh greens in your diet. Wings are good too for the high protein folks.
went for the first time on Wednesday 02/26 and it was great! the boom boom shrimp are a must and the servers/bartenders are on point. love being a personal DJ on the ami jukebox and the floor layout is really wide open with lots of open pool tables. will be going back soon.
I’ve been patronizing Zingales Billiards & Sports Bar for many years & have gotten to know many of their servers, bartenders, and even the owners. I am always greeted by name, my drink is usually made before I take my seat, and the food is exceptional. Taylor, Destiny, Rae, Trinity, Prince, Tiffany, Kevin, Frank, Kristen, and Michael are ALL amazing - and there are many others that have gone to do other things that were some of the best in the industry while serving at Zingales. I could not have chosen a better place to call “Cheers” where the conversations are endless & I feel welcomed. My experience may be different from yours now, but if you stay engaged, come often, show respect and show your sincerest appreciation for the service you are provided (& tipping ), you will agree that this place & the people that serve you are truly a gem.
Came here for drinks and food. Service was amazing even though they were packed. We got the spring rolls and boom boom shrimp, SO GOOD!! Def recommend, great prices and people 3
Fantastic food, some very nice bourbon, and a wonderful atmosphere. Also very worth noting the bathroom was incredibly clean. I didn’t catch our server’s name, but she was excellent as well.
Nice place! Lots of pool tables! Variety of food and drinks! They do serve at the table. Not very crowded but people start popping in around 9pm (which is when this review was written on a Friday) Definitely a place to hang out in groups or even with a loved one! You can also watch games here!
