    This is my 4th time at Zitto .The wine was chosen with the owner I was taken to the wine celler and she helped me make a great pick at my price point. We ordered the Chilean Sea Bass which had great flavour served with asparagus ..we would have liked it if there was some sauce with it but honestly it was pretty good without.. The veal chop was cooked perfectly and we ordered it when seeing it arrive at the neighbouqhing table. Looked so good..we shared a blackforest cake..not the best. But everything else was YUM..We will go back and hope to sit on their patio in the sun..!

    A pleasant restaurant with a nice service team and ambiance. The patio is also really nice in the warmer months. Food while being tasty is priced above average for what you get. There are better value propositions.

    The worse EVER!!!!!! I left the restaurant 8:32 without drink or eat anything. Guess why??? Poor service, yes.. believe or not I could order a drink only 17min after sitting and the table beside me, that arrived later already was drinking and eating. I refused spending my money in a such 🤬 place. At least they refilled the tap water twice.😅

    Food was fantastic but the service was not good. From getting an additional appetizer we never ordered to then getting one of the two mains wrong. Correct main arrives and waiter forgets to bring cheese. Guest didn’t wait any longer so they ate their main. Bill comes and the appetizer we didn’t order and wrong main are also included on bill! Not the usual service from Zitto Zitto.

    I wanted to love this restaurant but I just could not. A few things. They cluster everyone together rather than spreading them out around the room. I sense that is for the servers with little consideration to the diners. The servers do an excellent job - they sense the style of service one would like and switch servers to accommodate - this was needed in our case. Loved the Burrantina - Burrata salad with beets. Medium on the grilled sardines - they were delicious but why add raw onion/tomatoes? Absolutely took away from the flavour of the grilled sardines. The real complaint was with an undercooked fish. We opted for a whole grilled fish which was to be fileted at the table. Unfortunately the server was unable to do so as it was undercooked. Sadly at that point he had already cut through the fish so when he took it back they did manage to cook it a bit better however one half remained cold. As well we were sharing this dish between two people at the suggestion of our server. Ample fish but two pieces of rapini and two baby carrots was ridiculous. When the plate came back the sides were ice cold. As mentioned - i wanted to love it but in this case this will be a one and done place for us to visit
