In Short
Located in the heart of Raleigh's City Market, Zyedeco offers a relaxed, unpretentious backdrop for nightly live jazz and blues. Cozy couches line the generous curved bar where serious jazz fans and novice listeners alike can gather for after-work cocktails or settle in for the nightly entertainment until the wee hours of the morning. Zydeco offers light Southern fare in the form of shrimp and grits, chicken and waffles and jambalaya.

We were celebrating my husband's birthday w/some friends. This was our first time. Our waitress (Robin) was terrific, she gave us the best service and offered us wonderful meal suggestions. The food was GREAT. We almost missed out on a wonderful evening because of the other reviews. I'm glad we went and will be going again.

On 3/28/09 I enter this business that was recommend by several business members in the RTP area, and I recieve the worst service ever.. This young lady came to greet our table, and the first thing she mention is that she is the head waitress, and she will be taking care of us, but instead she was standing around chating, and doing whatever. My husband mention that something is really odd about this business. When dining at other establishment.. you never hear that when you first enter place of business. The food was ok, but very salty, and really spicey.. so cooks please ease up on that.... please STOP putting your finger in your mouth when you are working from an open window. Just remember that sanitation is everything..

i have been in and out of zydeco latley and i have come to realize that the business is not the same anymore. i was very disappointed to find out that the very nice lady that use to be there is no longer there. whatever the case may have been. she was a very nice lady and she had things in line from what i saw. i really dont even want to come in there anymore b/c this new girl they got does not know what she is doing. see alot of peope talk around zydeco and i heard that she is suppose to be this perfect trainer from other resturants and stuff and i looked it up b/c thats my job ttle and she is nothing and i have talked to a few of the waitress staff and they say she does not know what she is doing. the place is a mess the owner needs to hire someone else b/c i have also noticed how his business is not the same anymore as well. its just a mess in there the bathrooms are ALWAYS DIRTY and i cant tell if the floors have EVER been mopped. its just NASTY..... i was also in there this past weekend and i know you cant control everything but i think the situation that happen should have been handled better than it was. and one more thing you have a nice business i think that you should have better looking women with better attitudes at the door. because one of the women up there looks at HOT UNPROFESSIONAL MESS. hopefully you will approve this so your business will approve
