Service at Zi Pani Goes Downhill!
I have been eating at Zi Pani since it opened and have, until recently, enjoyed the experience. Lately the staff attitudes and food quality have definitely gone down hill. Speaking with friends, I found that I am not alone in this perception. I tried speaking with the owner, and he did not care to hear my opinion.    [02 Feb 2004 15:29:52]

I too agree that service has gone downhill
I too have been giving Zi Pani my business every week since it opened. I meet my friends there once a week. I have always enjoyed it until recently. I too tried to speak with the owner and was not heard. Frankly, I was ignored. There were several patrons who asked for the fans to be turned down or off (it's January). We were told that they had to stay on and were drawing the air up. The fans were in fact pushing the cold air down on its customers. Many sat in the restaurant with coats on. The owner did come out finally after a third person demanded to speak with the owner after the manager would take no action. The owner was very rude and would not let me complete a sentence. I will not be giving them my business anymore. My mom's group will find a establishment that wants to show care for its custome    [04 Jan 2005 13:58:12]

You can't be talking about the Zi Pani I Visit!
Zi Pani service is excellent. It's fast, and the people actually remember the type of coffee I order. (So, I always order the same coffee. Nevertheless, it's a nice thing. I'm always wished a good day, and the people who work there are very pleasant. In Eldersburg, they have the very best cappucinno's, and I've tried several other places. One day the owner, who I thought was a new employee, was making my cappuccino. I thought, oh my, I hope he does it as well as the others! Then I found out he was the owner and had trained the others. I love the place! Great egg and cheese bagels, too    [01 Feb 2006 12:13:59]

5 stars, all around
I can't even believe anyone could complain about this restaurant, especially the service. I am continually impressed by the dutiful attention of the staff. The food is also wonderful. The bagels are incredible, in a class of their own. I give Zi Pani my highest recommendation. Just visit and you'll know what I mean ;)    [04 Dec 2006 00:22:14]
