This 100-seat, 2,400 square foot restaurant is located on the ground floor of Signature Place in downtown St. Petersburg, FL.  Where the building is white and angular, Z Grille is warm and curvaceous picking up on restaurant owner / chef’s southern California roots.  The main dining area is a bamboo structure inspired by a half pipe.  The dining bar focuses on the open kitchen framed by a “proscenium arch” and extends the skateboarding theme through the use of materials: cast resin countertops tinted to match vintage skateboard wheels, asphalt gray concrete panels, and “grind rail” foot rests.
