What an incredible dining experience. The entire experience was so delightful. In this day in age where the wait staff at most restaurants is hardly attentive and they expect 20% of your bill for a drink refill makes this restaurant a huge breath of fresh air. The entire staff was so attentive and so pleasant to interact with, because of that it was a joy to tip 30%.

Amazing Korean BBQ experience! The dry age fridge right when you walk in sets the tone for the rest of the evening. Excellence in every aspect. Service, drinks, side dishes, soup, and of course meats were exceptional. Will definitely dine here again next time I am in town.

Zaya 1943 Korean Steakhouse is the epitome of what a fine dining Korean BBQ experience should be. We were visiting last night from Orlando and were blown away by the friendliness of the staff and the quality of the meats. Julie served us with the utmost care and professionalism. The food was absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked. Please open a restaurant in Central Florida! There will be no competition to you! Thank you to Julie and your wonderful hostess for squeezing us in and giving us a memorable beyond 5-star experience!

We had a delicious, quality, fresh meal and dining experience at Zaya’s! Absolutely would go back while visiting Chattanooga! All of the service team members were friendly, efficient, and certainly helpful! You can cook your own meal for each other, or ask for help!

The best steak I’ve ever had! I can’t stop thinking about that 60-day dry aged steak. We got the butcher’s feast with the Zaya steak, marinated short-rib gable, lamb chops, and 60-day dry aged steak. The lamb chops were amazing, and I don’t even like lamb.

Great place for special occasions/nice dinners. My wife and I had family in from out of town for her birthday. We booked reservations over a month in advance. From start to finish this place went above and beyond to make her birthday special. The food was great, service top notch, and the cocktails we had were also great. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. We have been twice now (and adult get away and once with our 2 kids) and can’t wait to go back. Our new favorite place in Chattanooga.

We just had dinner at Zaya 1943. Beautiful place and great atmosphere. We had reservations but they were extremely busy tonight but we didn’t mind the wait while we sat a the bar and had a nice cocktail. We had a very nice meal and experience. Our waiter was Binh and he was phenomenal! Very nice young man to talk to as he was preparing our meats. Even though they were extremely busy you would have never k own it because no one made it seem like they were busy and tired. They have the most amazing teamwork I have ever seen in a restaurant. Kudos to everyone who worked this evening!!
