Zio Italian Kitchen

The place was deserted on a Saturday night and despite the fact that we were the only table and they could have really tried to make the food good it was awful. I never would have gone there if not for my parents who only like basic Italian food. There are great restaurants within a mile. I will never go again.

Came back to try some takeout after the re-opening and none of the John's Best quality has slipped. Ordered the Uncle Frank's pizza with hot peppers, onions, sausage, artichoke and meatballs, and Nonna's meatballs with ricotta. The perfectly cooked crust held up without it getting soggy under all those toppings on the 30' drive home. Had a good mild flavor and tenderness to it, did not taste like "bread", nor was it greasy. Cheese texture pointed to it being fresh, not frozen. Onions and artichokes firm and rough chopped; obviously none of the garnishes come out of a jar. Meatballs were not overseasoned so the taste of the ingredients, not the spices, really came through. Thinking I'm going to have to buy the sauce in a jar soon. Yes, prices have increased - but portions are still generous and the quality is too. This is not Planet Pizza. This is not Dominoes. We all enjoy a large $14 stuffed crust "pizza" now and then, but this is home cooking. Call your Mom and tell her you miss hers.

First of all, woman who answered the phone was rude... then I got my pizza and all the cheese is slide to one side.. oh, and paid $20 for a small pizza with 3 toppings which is about 6 dollars over advertized price... horrible service, irresponsible delivery, over priced... never again.. absolutely terrible experience..
