Zin would like to formally introduce its newest member to the Zin family – Kristel Leayr! Kristel has already found her place at Zin as the newest bartender to join the team!

Kristel has been working in the hospitality industry since she was sixteen years old, and Zin could not be more pleased to be welcoming such an experienced new member aboard. Kristel began working as a hostess at Cisco’s Mexican Restaurant when she turned sixteen, and made her way up throughout the company. As she became more experienced over the years, she began cocktailing, waitressing, bartending, and managing at all of Cisco’s Mexican Restaurant’s locations.

Kristel took a break from the hospitality industry when she moved to Australia during her early 20s. She planned many special events and helped others with their Australian travel plans. Although her love for California has brought her back home, she will continue visiting her second home for many years to come.

On Kristel’s days off from Zin, she enjoys going to the beach, hiking the California trails, and playing with her dogs, Charlie and Chica. Zin is very pleased to have Kristel apart of the team! Welcome aboard Kristel!

Make your reservations at Zin Bistro Americana in the beautiful Westlake Village, California today to make unforgettable memories on the lake! While you are there, ask Kristel to make you one of our famous Moscow Mules!
