"This location seems very quiet and laid back. I went for an early lunch on Sunday, and there was hardly anyone in there when I arrived and when I left. I sat in the bar area since I was dining alone. It was so nice and bright, where the dining area is dimly lit. I was asked to show proof of vaccination before being seated. Kat, the bartender and my server was so nice and attentive. The food hit the spot. I ordered my favorite, the almond shrimp and spinach salad, but this time I ordered the almond shrimp entree. I was able to order a spinach salad as a side for a dollar extra and I ordered the corn grits as the other side. I recently became a fan on the corn grits, didn't care for them in the past, but they are a must try when visiting any Zea location. I began with my salad, it was a meal in itself. I cut it up and I feel like it just expanded in the bowl. I was near the end of my salad when Kat brought the rest of my meal. To my surprise, the entree comes with double the portion of the almond shrimp the appetizer does. Well there was no way I was going to eat all of that. I finished my salad, tasted my corn grits, enjoyed a few shrimp and packed the rest to take home for lunch the next day. I love when I get a bonus meal! The shrimp reheated well in my air fryer and Kat sent me home with some of the sauces to pour over them. The corn grits reheat well in the microwave, and think they tasted even better than the day I ordered them. Zea is one of the old faithful restaurants that you can visit for a good meal for a descent price with a nice ambiance. This will also be one of my new go-tos when I'm dining alone. The entire staff was nice and inviting, even the chef thanked me for coming as I was leaving. Until we meet again."
