" Came for an early dinner and my family really enjoyed it! The pizzas had the perfect thinness we love. Service was quick, though we had a mix-up with our order. They fixed it quickly, which I appreciated. The environment is nostalgic, a perfect spot for family dinners. Overall satisfied and we will definitely return. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food was decent but not exceptional. The thin crust pizza was too salty for my taste, and the sauce was overly sweet, which didn’t complement the spices well. I'm all for authenticity, but I didn't feel that Zaffiro's delivered on that front. Service was friendly enough, but the experience didn’t leave me wanting to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was underwhelmed by my visit to Zaffiro's. The pizza wasn’t as extraordinary as everyone had claimed, and the crust was a lot greasier than I would prefer. The decor felt dated, and I expected more for the price of the food. Service wasn't bad, but it didn't stand out either. I might come back, but I can't say I'm eager to do so. " (*Curated Review*)

" Incredible experience! From the moment I walked in, I felt the warm welcome that this old-school Italian place is known for. The pizza was incredibly crisp, with a lightness that’s hard to find elsewhere. I appreciated the straightforward menu and emphasis on classic items. I will say my drink order took longer than expected, but the outstanding food made up for it. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Zaffiro’s with high hopes based on recommendations, and while certain aspects lived up to it, some fell short. The atmosphere was vintage and charming, perfect for a family dinner. The pizza, while crispy, didn't deliver on flavor as strongly as I had anticipated. It could've used a bit more sauce. Overall still a nice experience, but I might explore other options next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first time at Zaffiro’s and I had mixed feelings. The pizza was decent but not outstanding. I feel like I had way too high expectations. The thin crust was nice, crispy, and what you'd expect, but the flavors were not what I was hoping for. On the plus side, the waitstaff was exceptional and very friendly. " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally got to try Zaffiro's after hearing great things, and while I was impressed with the crust, my overall experience was marred by the wait time. We effectively waited an hour for our food. While it did taste good, I believe much of my initial excitement faded. I'd consider coming again on a less busy evening! " (*Curated Review*)
