Khul ja Zinq Zinq... at the outset you are welcomed by a humungous quilted double door which opens up to reveal an aesthetics which I am yet to see anywhere else in pune. Winged chairs, quilted leather sofas and settes, perched high chairs and a 360 degree oval shaped bar. The bar itself is the mother of all bars, its a whopper! Here I met the Chemist, Alchemist, Magician, Artist, Juggler and Mixologist; Karan Sharma,who can whip up any drink you can pronounce! It was a pleasure watching him at work mixing up drinks and whisking, shaking, stirring in his signature style. No other place in Pune whips out better drinks than Zinq, thanx to this man. Yeah.. I said that! They have a DJ floor and a dance floor with paraphernalia  and also a roofed dining cum party area hugging the indoor area. Here I noticed DJ Talentro, Shubhankar at work swaying to the music and winning the crowds hearts. He is another great Force Multiplier for Zinq- a very talented and gifted musician and DJ. Coming on to drinks- like I said, at the cost of repetition, none in Pune can surpass their prowess in drinks. Tried three cocktails and two mocktails. First one was a hybrid version between old fashioned and whiskey sour- Karan's innovation!- Jameson, orange peels, zest, some secret concoction of his(like the druid of the gauls he won't reveal the secret ingredient), torched cinnamon stick- and I was levitating like a Young Monk! Second one was his specially concocted red wine Sangria- instead of cranberry he uses fresh blood orange- another masterpiece. The third one was a tequila margarita- perfectly blended and shaken away to glory served in a pre-chilled martini glass. Invented by my namesake, 'Danny' Carlos Herrera, for a lady who was allergic to everything except tequila even though tequila giant Jose Cuervo has a different story. Anyway, a slogan was soon coined saying ''Margarita, more than a girl's name''- I personally believe there is nothing girlie about a margarita! I love it! Virgin Pina Colada is also very refreshing at this place, and served with a large slice of pineapple on top. Coming on to food, I recommend you try the malai tikka chicken and honey glazed chicken lollipops in appetisers. Plat de jur I would recommend the quintessential indian Butter chicken, thick gravied with tinge of tomato puree, loads of butter and optimal spices along with garlic naan. Folks, Zinq is your place for those great drinks, great music... if you love a song and dance...break a leg!!

Great place reopened after corona. It is a big area with a seperate dance floor and lounge. Great variety and expansive bar with a wide variety of drinks. Had the starters here which were amazing. Great place to party with friends. It has a plush leather door entrance that takes you into a room of mirrors. This opens out into a massive bar area on the right a beautiful dance floor in the center with the live dj Station and techno lights and decor. So the perfect place to have a drink and shake a leg. Service is prompt. The cocktails served by their inhouse mixologist were both unique and par excellence. We had a white wine sangria and a red wine sangria which were refreshing and with the right amount of alcohol and the perfect blend. Next we had a beer and whiskey cocktail with the beer bottle dunked in was both amazing to look at and tasted amazing. Highly recommended their cocktails and I suggest let them choose them for you. There is a more secluded dining area to the left of this dance floor so you can enjoy your drinks and a dance at the bar area before moving to the dining area. So you are spolit for choice depending on your preference. Had their tandoori style starters to go with their amazing cocktails that hit all the right notes and summed up a superb night out. Highly recomend this place and will definitely visit again. Ambience food and bar menu are just perfect and totally worth it. Food 5/5 Ambience 5/5 Bar Menu 5/5 Service 5/5

We had a  party at this amazin place. Due to Covid, the evening was live only on the rooftop. Have to mention that the interiors and the 360 degree bar was a sight to the eyes, even though we could not party out of there! Even on the roof top, the Kabanas and the setup up was too good. The hit of the evening was drinks from expert Karan Sharma and the dance floor was on fire coz of DJ Talentro..Thanks guys..you made our evening!!! The standup comedy and the live band was equally interesting and raised the bar for the evening. In the midst of all the events, enjoyed the menh lined up Chicken fried rice, Hakka Noodle,  hunan chicken, teriyaki chicken,  chicken hot garlic, kakori kebab, tikka kebab..thumbs up to the chef! Thanks Team ZinQ...we'll be Back :)

It was a super comfortable venue with different spaces for huge gathering. The service and food was excellent and very polite staff to cater. Different days have different music styles and a superb outdoor Terra with very nice offers. A Perfect place to dine and dance as they have a huge nightclub inside.

Zinq is a newly opened club lounge located on 4th floor of Seasons mall. This place is quite spacious with huge indoor area with seating arrangement, large bar and dance floor. The outdoor space has huge al fresco dining area. Coming to food, we had: APPETIZERS Cajun Fries: Hot and crispy fries sprinkled with cajun spices and served with ketchup. Paneer Tikka Sliders: Mini burgers stuffed with paneer tikka, lettuce and onion. It was delicious and a must try item from their menu. #recommended Spinach Corn Sliders: Spinach corn prepared in creamy sauce and served inside mini buns. It was yummy. Veg Garden Pizza: Delicious thin crust pizza topped with generous amount of cheese, olives, zucchini, onion and tomato. #recommended MAIN COURSE For main course we ordered Paneer Lababdar and Veg Kadhai. Paneer lababdar had paneer prepared in rich, creamy tomato gravy. Veg Kadhai had variety of veggies cooked in tomato gravy. Both the gravies was mildly spicy in taste. We had these with garlic naan, butter naan and butter roti. Curries tasted good with naan, but it could have been better if it had been more spicy. Overall, the experience was good. It's a good place to grab some drinks, eat delicious food and party with friends.
