Le Zoo is an energetic celebration of timeless French-Mediterranean flavors. Capturing the coveted common ground between European elegance and effortless South Florida sophistication, the 200-seat restaurant is a special place where gilded Old World decor plays alongside tropical planters and vintage French design touches. The food, drawing deeply from the refined cooking of Provence, is a transporting experience, ranging from the freshest fruits de mer and chic pizzas to pristine carpaccios, tartares and other signatures of Gallic coastal cuisine. Serving lunch, dinner and weekend brunch, Le Zoo brings out Francophile in all of us.

    This is my wife’s and I favorite casual restaurant in the area! Great cocktails, great service, wonderful wine, and juicy dishes with many layers of flavor. It is our go to place on a Sunday early dinner. Sorry kids - our kids- , this is just for mama and papa’s enjoyment! Hint: if you have Amex Platinum, go to Sacks to use your twice a year $50 perk; yes, there a few things there under that price or not too extravagant: cologne, mascara, underwear… Extra-hint: try Tom Ford’ Eau Dombré Leather: $130 minus $50

    brunch at Le Zoo was very nice. Fresh Japanese oysters clean. Menu is great, not too many items with a classic French theme. Our server Sabrina was attentive, knowledgeable, friendly and a pleasure. Will be back for dinner.
