Chez Zee

An Iconic Austin Original for Unforgettable Events

For over 36 years, Chez Zee American Bistro has been a beloved icon in Austin, known for its warm hospitality, award-winning in-house bakery, and full bar featuring craft cocktails and curated wines. We’re proud to share that we’ve recently completed a stunning renovation – from fresh interiors to all new tables and chairs – offering an updated, modern vibe while maintaining the comfort and charm you’ve always loved.

Nestled in the heart of the city, our vibrant and versatile venue has hosted countless events that bring people together – from corporate meetings and nonprofit fundraisers to family reunions, milestone birthdays, rehearsal dinners, and celebrations of life. Our inviting spaces offer flexible seating arrangements to accommodate intimate gatherings or larger affairs, with personalized catering options that highlight fresh, locally inspired cuisine. 

We have a stand-alone special events venue called The Gallery, a newly renovated intimate event space known as The Crescent Room, and a variety of semi-private areas for all type of special occassion. Chez Zee is more than just a restaurant – it’s a place where memories are made. Let us help you create an event that your guests will remember long after the last toast.
