"Zinque—excuse us, Zinqué—is one of those West Hollywood restaurants that endures wild swings in popularity for no reason, especially since it’s always been mediocre. Come here after work and drink some room-temperature white wine with a spiraling coworker on the patio, and you’ll be fine. Come here for an actual dinner and you’ll discover a restaurant that, despite being open for over a decade, is still dealing with first-week hiccups. The chances of you receiving your food in under an hour (or within a half hour of everyone else at your table) is low, so just stick to the chardonnay. Your pilot season anxiety needs it more than a bowl of arugula and purple rice anyway." - brant cox
