    I am a loyal patron of Zucca. It has become a staple of mine for both personal and professional engagements. In fact, I am hosting a 20 person event on Wednesday, Jan 15th at the restaurant (7p). I am bringing in professionals from around the state of Florida to kickoff my Miami Retreat. It would be ideal if my longstanding server, Danielle, could have her schedule adjusted so that she could work that evening and service our table. Thank you for your ongoing professionalism and outstanding management. Regards, Richard Chait 305.608.2593

    We celebrated one of my best friend’s birthdays here and it was amazing! The atmosphere, the food, our waiter Leo and the management team were amazing. The agreed to relocate our table outside even though we had selected inside. They were very accommodating and helpful. We purchased the birthday package and a bottle of champagne and it was worth it. My friend was so happy to see all the staff members waving their fans while they brought her the bottle and dessert. They had a DJ during brunch and luckily it was just the perfect volume where we could still have conversations while the music was on. I definitely recommend this restaurant for any event especially a birthday.
