Everything was wonderful as usual. Sviatlana was absolutely fantastic as our server for the evening and really made our night extra special. We make sure to visit Zanti every time we are in town from NJ and will continue to do so. Thanks for another great evening!

I'm happy to update my review with a well-deserved 5 stars. As previously mentioned, it's a beautiful restaurant, and service is incredibly welcoming, attentive, and polished. This time, every single bite of food was stellar. Of course, I had to have that incredible Caesar salad with its decadent fried croutons and delicious Boquerones. We also tried the shrimp toast, which was perfectly crispy yet not at all greasy - excellent! The scallop congee was soul-warming and, I swear, tasted just like the congee my mom made us as kids when we were sick. The crawfish risotto was punchy and savory with a hint of a kick. If the congee is sweet-natured comfort food, the risotto is its rebellious punk-rock cousin. Both were outstanding. Even the dessert - the fig tart - was a delightful surprise. Yes, we were very full - and yet we kept eating it: slightly figgy, nutty, and a sweet cream layer. The accompanying ice cream was the perfect partner: We all agreed this was truly a perfect meal!
