We had our wedding and reception at Zia's Lago Vista in September. Everything was perfect and our guests were blown away! Planning was easy and the team was accomodating and willin...
g to do whatever we wanted. You do not get nickle -and-dimed at this venue, everything is included which is so great! We had 130 guests and I was a little bit worried since we wouldn't have a dedicated bar tender (although we did have access to the main bar), but the waitstaff was so on top of things that nobody ever had to wait for a drink- the service was outstanding! Our wedding was a brunch wedding, we had salads and then chicken and waffles, breakfast pizza, and eggs brennan. I heard so many comments that the food was the best wedding food people ever had, people specifically loved the eggs brennan. The food was family style so everyone was able to try everything. The team continued to bring more food out until everyone was done eating, THEN they took the food extra food to donate to a homeless shelter on our behalf. I cannot rave about Zia's execution of our wedding enough. The best part is, we can return and relive our day next time we are in Chicago :)
Best place ever to get married! We had 170 people and everyone had a blast-the food was amazing, everyone had a drink, and the planning process was flawless. They went above and be...
yond to make our wedding absolutely amazing. Words can’t even describe how perfect everyone at Zia’s was.
Selecting Zia's Lago Vista was one of the BEST decisions we made in planning our wedding. I think I have heard from almost every person that attended our celebration that they were...
beyond impressed with the food, the service from the Zia's team, and how stunning the space looked. You can't beat getting this feedback from family who are professional event planners: 'Every time a serving plate was empty a new dish of food appeared instantly, every time my drink was empty I was offered a new one right away, and the staff was unbelievably nice'. Ryan went above and beyond anything we could have imagined to accommodate all of our wishes and truly welcomed us to Zia's as if we were family. I cannot say enough fabulous things about the experience we had on our wedding day, as well as in the months that we spent planning the details. Hats off to Ryan and his team for everything they did for us- truly an unforgettable experience.
Zia's Lago Vista was our dream wedding venue! They brought our ideas to life and were there every step of the way to make our day perfect. Ryan N, Ryan A and Emily were so helpful ...
and accommodating with every request. Ryan N went through every decoration and idea with me with such patience... I can't thank him enough!! If you're looking for an elegant and rustic venue with AMAZING food... Zia's Lago Vista is it!!

un! They went above and beyond to make sure the space looked beautiful and that the food was incredible. The servers, bartenders and staff that helped setup the day of were amazing. Words can't express how perfect our night was thanks to Zia's. Our guests raved about the food, multiple people that were visiting for the first time told me that they'd be coming back for dinner. The restaurant is gorgeous, which meant we had less decorating to do. The bridal party sat in from of the gorgeous wine cellar, it was a great backdrop for pictures. Zia's also has valet parking which is a huge plus, they were even able to accommodate our guests the night of a Cubs game. They were also able to provide gluten-free and dairy-free food for our guests. Zia's food, atmosphere and professional staff set this venue ahead of all the rest. Highly recommended!
Our wedding ceremony and dinner was held at Zia’s. The management and staff did a great job. They were very responsive to our questions both in the days and months leading up to t...
he wedding day, and on the day of the wedding, and very helpful in accommodating guests with specific allergies and restrictions. We were impressed with the prompt and courteous attention that was paid to all our needs.
The setup for the ceremony worked well and the food was excellent. They turned one of their dining areas into a space to hold the ceremony and for photos, and then held the reception dinner in the dining room toward the back of the restaurant as it opened for business. The ceremony space was perfect for a small wedding like ours, and we were very impressed with the decor. The space set aside for the reception dinner also worked out great. It was exactly what we needed, and set aside just enough from the rest of the restaurant. The family style service allowed our guests to choose from several different salads and entrees. The food was very good, and there was enough of a range of options to make our guests happy.
We highly recommend Zia’s as a wedding venue.
Zia's Lago Vista was the perfect venue for our wedding. The general manager, Ryan, was wonderful to work with to make our day perfect. The day went seamless due to the excellent s...
ervice the entire staff at Zia's provided. They coordinated with all of our vendors to make the day as easy as possible for us. As Zia's regulars, we were able to pick out all of our menu favorites. Our assigned waiter, Kevin, was on top of everything. All of our friends and family raved about the food, wine and exceptional service. Zia's exceeded our expectations for the day and was the perfect choice for a wedding venue.
I'm not one to normally write reviews but I don't think even that's enough to thank the staff of Zia's Lago Vista for our experience there.
To start, Ryan, the GM, was extremely...
accommodating before and during the day of. Beyond working very well with our requests, he was very assuring throughout the process - and rightfully so! The preparation and execution was exemplary.
The food and space itself were pitch-perfect. We've received countless compliments on the varied and elegant menu that we chose. The space was classic while still appropriately contemporary.
However, by far the most impressive aspect was the service. We had 120 guests - guests that really enjoy their cocktails! The servers' timing was perfect, they were never intrusive, and were absolutely everywhere they were needed. They were very personable, professional, and knowledgeable. I can't say enough about the accommodation from the managers, servers, and everyone else involved.
Very happy with our special day thanks to Zia's!
Thanks,
Katie and Brandon Zieg
