And if you're seeking a phenomenal meal (especially when the mood for Italian cuisine strikes your interest), there is one spot that prides itself in amazing cuisine, elegance and fantastic customer service - Zino Ristorante.

Zino Ristorante in my opinion, is a culinary haven that transports your taste buds straight to the heart of Italy. From the moment you step through its charming doors, the warm ambiance and the tantalizing aroma of Italian cuisine envelop you, setting the stage for a memorable dining experience. I recently had the pleasure of dining at Zino, and it was nothing short of extraordinary.


My husband and I decided to pay this spot a visit while we were in the area to celebrate my parent's 35th wedding anniversary. And we decided to spend a little time on our own getting to know the area and experiencing something new. We were in the mood for Italian cuisine and the hotel concierge recommended one place - Zino's. So, we made reservations.


To start, the restaurant's attentive and knowledgeable staff guided us through an extensive wine list, helping us select the perfect bottle to complement our meal. The service throughout the evening was impeccable, striking a balance between professionalism and genuine hospitality. Now, let's talk about the food. Zino's menu is a delightful exploration of Italian flavors with a modern twist. We began our culinary journey with the Burrata Caprese, a divine combination of creamy burrata cheese, ripe tomatoes, fresh basil, and a drizzle of balsamic reduction. The flavors danced harmoniously on the palate, setting the bar high for the rest of the meal.

For our main course, we savored the Osso Buco, a slow-braised veal shank served atop a bed of creamy saffron risotto. The tender meat practically melted in the mouth, and the risotto was a masterful creation, showcasing the chef's skill in balancing textures and flavors.

A highlight of the evening was the seafood linguine, a medley of clams, mussels, shrimp, and scallops tossed in a delectable white wine and garlic sauce. Each bite was a taste of the ocean, and the pasta was perfectly al dente—a true seafood lover's delight. Dessert was a sweet symphony with the Tiramisu stealing the show. It was a cloud-like confection of mascarpone cheese and coffee-soaked ladyfingers, elegantly presented and delightfully indulgent.

In the warm embrace of this elegant and charming Italian eatery, every meal becomes an exquisite symphony of flavors and a testament to the art of culinary craftsmanship. As you savor the last bite of your carefully crafted dish, there is no doubt that Zino Ristorante hopes that your experience is nothing short of exceptional. Their commitment to providing you with a memorable dining experience remains unwavering, and are eager to welcoming you and I back to this classy Italian restaurant again and again. Buon appetito!
