Zia's Trattoria: Reviews & Ratings
Came here last year while I was in Chicago on business, and the food was amazing. I made sure to go back again this year. Awesome!
A casual, cozy dinner spot. The place was packed despite the fact it was a weekday but we managed to get a table. Great place if you want to do something besides pasta. I had the salmon special with avocados and it was an outstanding dish. The complimentary bread was so fresh and flavorful I knew I was in for a treat when we sat down and wasn't disappointed.
Amazingly good and fast service. No rushing you out as you finish your wine and your food is delivered as soon as it is ready piping hot. Can't recommend Zia enough.
Good food, nice ambiance plus the bottles of wine are 50% off on Sunday. Great experience will definitely come back.
We hosted our daughter's First Communion at Zias and our experience was wonderful! If I could I would give them six stars. Food was very tasty and there was plenty of it. Nobody left home hungry. Service was beyond wonderful, courteous and attentive. On the behalf of my family and myself I just wanted to say Thank You! Great place!
I love Zia’s. Two years ago, I had my baby shower there, and the food was terrific, the space was so cute, and service was great. However, what finally prompted me to write a review (which I rarely do) was a recent encounter. I ordered the family meal from Zia’s online portal, but there was an issue, which caused a problem with our order. The manager went above and beyond to rectify the situation and even personally delivered our food (which was absolutely delicious. The Chicken Vesuvio was my favorite.) You can’t go wrong with Zia’s!
Love Zia's! Every time we go I find something new to love on the menu. Service is great, lots of options on the menu, fun as a couple or with friends.
Excellent restaurant with tasty Italian food, a pleasant atmosphere, and excellent service. When I got my bill, I asked why I didn’t charge me for cappuccino and chocolate mousse cake. They said it was complimentary. What a pleasant surprise! Our waitress made an excellent wine suggestion. Great dining experience.
