" I visited Zinicola for a special birthday dinner, and it was delightful. The staff went above and beyond to make the occasion memorable. The calamari was wonderful, and the grilled octopus was a hit at our table. Although the wait for our entrees was a bit longer than expected, the food was worth it and tasted freshly made. Looking forward to trying their desserts next time! " (*Curated Review*)

I highly recommend making a reservation as it can get quite busy on weekends. " (*Curated Review*)
