Celebrated my birthday with my family (2 young kids, husband, my parents, and sister) and Double Zero went above and beyond to make me feel special! Garlic knot and Brussels sprouts were a great way to start our meal!

We went here for our birthday and had a great time. The bread with the ricotta and calamari was sooo delicious. The braised short rib pasta was so good I think every single person at the table stole a bite. We had a pizza that took a very long time to come out but the waiter kept checking up and the manager made it right. Even though the pizza took a long time we were not upset because they were both so kind and helpful and the rest of the food was delicious. Overall we hade a great birthday dinner. Thanks !
