" I had high hopes for Zio's, and they mostly delivered. The pizza options were extensive, and I settled on a veggie pizza. The toppings were super fresh, but unfortunately, my pizza came a little soggy. The flavor was good, but the texture left something to be desired. Nonetheless, I appreciated the speedy service and friendly wait staff who made us feel at home. I would recommend it, but I’d just be cautious with the crusts. " (*Curated Review*)

" Zio's pizza is just okay, I would say. I ordered a plain cheese pizza, expecting it to be fabulous based on reviews. It was average at best; the crust didn't have that crunch I was looking for. On a positive note, the staff were friendly and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. I think I'll give their other items a try before making any final conclusions—service was good enough to warrant another visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Zio's Twelve 21 is a quaint little spot that truly feels like an Italian family-run pizzeria. I ordered their Margherita pizza, which was delicious! The crust was perfectly baked, and the sauce had a refreshing acidity. However, it would have been nice if they offered more topping options for the pizzas—my partner found her pepperoni pizza a bit sparse on toppings. Overall, our experience was positive, and we'll likely return to try out their other menu items. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was checking out local Italian restaurants and came across Zio's. What a lovely surprise! The atmosphere is charming, and the service was fast and friendly. I tried their pepperoni pizza, and while it was tasty, it did feel a bit oily for my taste. My husband raved about the calzone—definitely a win! I’d suggest giving it a whirl and trying a variety of their offerings during your visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I went to Zio's based on all the rave reviews, and while I enjoyed it, it wasn't as amazing as I was led to believe. The pizza was indeed tasty and packed with toppings, but the crust was a bit too floppy for my liking. The ambiance was nice, very family-oriented, and the staff went out of their way to serve us well. I might return and try their other specialties, though! " (*Curated Review*)

" First time trying Zio's based on a friend's recommendation, and I was not disappointed! The pizza had a great tangy sauce and the crust was pleasingly crisp. The staff was efficient and attentive. I ordered a classic combo pizza, which was loaded with ingredients. My only downside was that it took a while for our food to arrive but once it did, it was well worth the wait! I’ll certainly be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Zio's Twelve 21 has earned its spot as a neighborhood favorite! My latest visit was enjoyable, and the pizza was incredibly flavorful. We tried the deep-dish slice, which was hefty and comforting without being overly greasy. The restaurant felt welcoming, and the staff were enthusiastic, brightening our dining experience. I recommend it to anyone looking for comforting Italian fare in a relaxed setting. Can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)
