A waiter at Zanti followed me 3 doors down to another store and confronted me in front of other people and full throatedly accused me of skipping out on the check after I had already PAID. After I proved that I did pay he NEVER APOLOGIZED!!!. The manager also made light of the situation. I do not recommend this restaurant.

I had an amazing experience at Zanti! It was my first time dining here with my family, and we were impressed by the delicious food and excellent service. Our waiter, Oliver, went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable dining experience. The food was authentic and flavorful, and the ambiance was lovely. I highly recommend Zanti Cucina Italiana for anyone looking for a delightful Italian dining experience!

Was great place to visit but today service was below average. Waitress seemed bothered by simple request. Took 20 min before someone came by our table and greeted us. Drink was terrible even I have been here 10 times before and always had amazing experience and had many of my friends come with me to enjoy the atmosphere. Hope they will fix the issues..

Enjoyed my Sunday evening meal here. The service and food are both great. We tried a variety of things and most of the pastas were great tasting. Things we’d get again are shown with an asterisk below. The lava cake was phenomenal and worth the 15-20 minute wait- Truffle Cheese Ravioli*- Beef Ravioli- Gnocchi Al Funghi Silvestri*- Pappardelle Al Ragu Ossobucco*- Tortino Di Latte Bruciato*

I really wanted to like this place. A few friends recommended Zanti to us so we decided to go celebrate a couple friend’s birthdays for dinner there and although the restaurant is absolutely stunning both inside and outside, the food was subpar. I got the truffle cheese ravioli and the pasta was severely over cooked and the dish itself lacked flavor. My friends got a few of the other homemade pasta dishes and sadly we all agreed the food just was not what we expected. We did however, enjoy the charcuterie board.Be weary of seating outside, we had to essentially scream at one another if we wanted to be heard because the music was SO LOUD. So if you want to hold a decent conversation I would suggest sitting inside.The only stars in my rating truly go out to the service. Our server was very attentive and made sure (to the best of his ability) that we had a pleasant experience. I appreciate his effort.Overall, for the price of the dishes and the look of the restaurant, the food certainly does not keep up.

Such a beautiful restaurant and the food and wine were really good. The first time I went I had the Pappardelle al Ragu Di OssoBuco (Yum) the second time I had just had the Braised Lamb.

Came here for brunch and sat in the outdoor patio. Very upscale restaurant! Music is played in the background. It's audible but not too loud.Service is great. Our waiter gave us recommendations without asking. He was good at taking photos and videos.FOODPotatoes and octopus - 4.5/5It was better than I thought. I would get this again.Shrimp ceviche - 4/5The shrimp was fresh. Not your typical ceviche. It was a green sauce with shrimp and cucumbers served with unsweetened plantain chips. It was a little spicy. I would have liked more ingredients like avocado, onions, and/or tomatoes.Smoked salmon omelette - 3/5If not for the smoked salmon, it was very plain. Only diced red bell peppers and onions. Instead of potato chips, I asked for crispy potatoes.Pistachio gelato - 3/5Only had a spoon of this and it has a very strong pistachio flavor.The women's restroom has elegant decor and has a great pick of finishes.If you come with a group, they will automatically add gratuity to your bill.Definitely a great spot to come have brunch with your family or friends.Parking: There's free adjacent parking where Kroger is located or you can valet
