A perfect place for a date or a special occasion for a large party, Zeffirelli Ristorante Italiano’s atmosphere is charming, cozy, and makes you feel like you’re in an Italian family’s living room. The wine list is extensive, the staff is acknowledgeable about its wines, and you can get a good bottle of wine for a reasonable price. The specialty here is the veal chop, which is a bit pricey, but you’re assured a juicy, tender piece of meat with sauce that perfectly complements the assortment of flavors. You can get huge portions of food for both lunch and dinner, but if you plan to have dinner, be sure to make a reservation as it’s always packed after 6 o’clock. Save room for dessert because Zeffirelli boasts some delicious Italian favorites like a classic tiramisu and mixed berries with a light Italian custard.
