Zio's is one of the best local Italian places around. They have the most consistent food quality and excellent service. A great place for families too - the kid's menu comes on a slide in a Viewmaster!
They have a great menu item that's essentially "Make your own Pasta Dish." You choose from four different pastas and sauces for many combinations. I personally like the penne in meat sauce. Another unique thing is their pizza selection. They have one of the more extensive lists of different pizzas, and it's arguably their specialty.
I have to rave for a minute about their Tirimisu dessert. It is by far the best I've ever had, and one of the few alcohol-free ones I've seen at local restaurants. Make it a point to save enough room to want a dessert just to experience this rare treat.
This is definitely the place to come if you're tired of chain Italian restaurants. By far the best independent Italian restaurant in the area, Zio's makes a great night out for the whole family.
