This coming Friday, July 1st, Za Restaurant, 147 Delaware Avenue, Pennington, New Jersey, will pass a significant milestone: its fifth anniversary… And the popular fine dining BYO will mark the occasion with a “The Future’s So Bright” celebration.
The first one hundred diners seated for dinner on July 1st will receive a free pair of vintage sunglasses. Za Restaurant’s entire staff will be wearing shades, as will chef/proprietor Mark Valenza.
And Chef Valenza has good reason to believe that Za’s future is bright, as the anniversary event also marks the official opening of the restaurant’s new dining room, the Gallery. With the addition of the Gallery, the restaurant has increased its indoor seating from 38 to 76 seats.
Chef Valenza reports that sales have increased over 30% since the venue added significantly to its seating capacity. Za Restaurant also offers 48 additional seats in its secluded, fair weather only Wisteria Garden.
“Prior to expansion, we were turning customers away on Friday and Saturday evenings,” noted Chef Valenza. “Now, we can easily accommodate those patrons and have a room for private parties of up to forty-five guests.
The expansion also included several other improvements to the venue: a vestibule entrance, a comfortable lounge/waiting area, improved air conditioning, and more spacious seating. There are also plans to install a kitchen dining table in the near future.
During this period of economic instability, Chef Valenza attributes the success of his fine dining venture to three factors: a unique comfort cuisine menu exemplified by signature dishes, consistently high-quality food, and service that is dependably superior to most dining experiences available elsewhere.
Reservations to Za Restaurant are available online or by phone at (609) 737-4400.
Bon Appétit!
