    Service was a bit of a miss. I couldn’t tell if our server was new or just not attentive. They didn’t seem super knowledgeable about the menu, empty plates stayed on the table longer than they should have and just overall attentiveness was lacking. The food was good, though the pasta with my chicken parm was a bit clumpy and I received the wrong cocktail but it was promptly remedied. Was introducing friends to Z Cucina for the first time and was hoping for more of a slam dunk because it normally is!

    Served spoiled mussels that smelled like manure. I sent them back and they still charged me for them until I asked to be comped. Took at least 20 mins to have server some back to our table to take our payment so we could leave.

    We’ve enjoyed Z for years and have always had a great experience! We were celebrating multiple occasions with friends last night and our food, service and surprise desserts were wonderful. We always recommend Z to our friends if they’re not joining us!

    Great as usual. Had the calamari and it was better than I remembered it. Really like the added vegetables.

    We always love dining at Z Cucina! From the moment you walk in the door you feel welcome and a part of the family! Our server Emalea was terrific: knowledgeable, helpful, professional, personable, efficient, and patient. Food was outstanding as always. We started with the calamari appetizer which is one of the best in the city! For dinner, I had the seafood special, which was sea bass on a bed of couscous in a slightly spicy tomato broth topped with arugula. The sea bass skin was crispy which made it even more scrumptious! The spice of the sauce was an extra delight! My husband had beef short rib with roasted potatoes and broccolini. He loved the combination of the vegetables! We both had clean plates. We passed on dessert even though we know they are also awesome.
