    Another outstanding culinary experience. I’ve been coming here for thirty years and it never disappoints. If you’re looking for an upscale Italian food experience look no further than this place. The food quality and service equally outstanding. Plenty of parking as well in a parking lot beside the restaurant in quaint downtown Herndon. Impressive wine selection and wonderful desserts as well. Tiramasu deliciouso! Highly recommend.

    Love this restaurant. All our meals were good last night except my salmon which was very dry. Our waiter seemed to more attentive to tables around us as we had to ask twice for additional glasses of wine and we waited quite a while for him to take our order yet he took orders at other tables who were seated after we were

    I took my wife out for date night recently and we went to Zeffirelli. I read great reviews so decided to try it. Service was phenomenal. Not much waiting and there was a certain amount of attention that our host gave us that made our time memorable. We had the Caesar salad and Calamari & Zucchini to start. Loved them both. I enjoyed the size of the calamari. My wife had Ravioli and I had the Pollo alla Romana. Both dishes were great and filling. The restaurant gives off a real authentic vibe and is romantic. Perfect location for a date. I look forward to going back.
