" We visited Zio Johno's after hearing rave reviews, and we were thrilled! The gondolas were a hit for everyone at the table. My favorite was the chicken alfredo, perfectly creamy and delicious. The garlic bread was the best I’ve ever had — fluffy and bursting with flavor. Our server was knowledgeable and recommended the chocolate cake to finish off the meal, which we devoured! I highly recommend this spot for family gatherings or just a nice dinner out. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just not impressed with this place. While the ambiance is alright, I found the food to be average at best. My spaghetti was not cooked to my liking, and service was just okay. I might give it another try hoping it’s better next time, but I wasn’t blown away. " (*Curated Review*)

" The quality of the food is excellent. I love the attention they put into their sauces. The garlic bread is a must-have! It’s a popular spot, so be prepared for crowds. On busy nights, wait times can be longer, but it’s totally worth it for a wonderful meal. I'm already planning my return trip! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're after authentic Italian, Zio Johno's is a treasure in Marion! I had the shrimp scampi last week, which was delicious and garlicy – perfectly cooked shrimp! The garlic bread paired beautifully with it, and the atmosphere is warm and familial. I will definitely make it a point to visit more often. Great value for an authentic experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently catered for my son’s hockey team from Zio Johno's, and everyone was raving about the food! The spaghetti and garlic bread were a hit, and there were plenty of leftovers. The ordering process was smooth, and the food was ready on time. It helped make our team gathering a success, and I will definitely consider them for future events! " (*Curated Review*)

" On my recent visit to Zio Johno's, I was excited to try the fettuccine alfredo. However, I found it a bit underwhelming compared to their other dishes. The service was decent but lacked that personal touch, which I had experienced before. The ambiance was lively, and I appreciate that the restaurant supports local ingredients. It’s a solid choice, but I hope for better next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience. The food was quite good, but our server seemed rushed and unfocused. We waited a bit too long to place our order and the atmosphere felt less inviting than previous visits. The pasta was expertly cooked, and the flavors were on point, so I would consider returning. Just hope for better service next time. " (*Curated Review*)
