About Zola's On The Water

At Zola's On The Water, our goal is to make your dining experience pleasurable. From the layout of the restaurant, to the decor, and menu, our decisions were made to create a unique atmosphere, and a diverse menu that will help you relax and enjoy your dining experience.

Zola's Pizzeria was reborn as "Zola's On The Water" in 2020. While the move was not far, only a few hundred feet from its location at the port, it required a complete interior renovation of the new building which included the design and construction of our River Bar, upgrades to our outside patio, the addition of the "Doggy Diner" patio, and much more.

When we moved, we wanted to carry forward the rich history of Zola's Pizzeria to the new location by the Brookings-Harbor boat launch. Great care was taken to transport that history of Zola's Pizzeria to the new Zola's On The Water. Pizza box art, dollar bills tacked on the ceiling, and drawings on the kraft paper table coverings were saved, photographed, and became wallpaper which now covers the walls of the pizza pit, surrounding our Italian designed Mugnaini wood-fired oven. Stop by the pizza pit to view the artwork, say hello, and watch our pizza makers create our delicious, classic, custom or exotic pizzas for you.

To serve you better, we are constantly making improvements in order to make your every visit to Zola's on the Water a fun and memorable time.

Zola's River Bar Construction

Enjoy a beer, cocktail, or drink of your choice at our beautiful hand-crafted bar, that we have named "A River Runs Through It." Our bar features an interior lit "river" which has beach glass, and seashells scattered along its "bank."

Framed with the "River" in place, and adding the crushed beach glass.

LED lights in place, shells imprinted, and ready for the crushed beach glass.

Our Two Connected Patios

The glass enclosed patio on the right was designed with our customers comfort in mind. The overhead sails will protect you from the direct sun, and the fire-tables will keep you warm. We have built an outside drink station that will help us serve you quickly and efficiently. There is a stage set up on the main patio to host the entertiners we bring in for your enjoyment.

"While you're drinking your hooch, there's something for your pooch."

Have you tried our Doggie Diner Patio? If you have a pet, or pets that you take everywhere, feel free to bring them to our outside "Doggie Diner." You'll find fresh water, and even a special menu, featuring cubed chicken, and an unseasoned Burger Patty.
