Excellent service and food. They have a special on Thursdays where wine is half priced and a selection of menu items are 8 dollars. It's an exceptional value. This is my first time dining at this location and I will definitely be back.

Absolutely love Zitto Zitto, food is always fabulous, staff is incredible…Marty is the best waiter you’ll ever have! Anita & Allan (owners) are also incredible and run a great operation…go early & enjoy a drink in the bar (fab & cozy), and Sotto Sotto (next door - intimate & casual) is awesome too (same owners). You won’t regret it and if you love steak the have half price porter house on Tuesday’s - amazing deal!
