Z Cucina di Spirito

Finally, the veal scallopini is back on the menu. Was there last night and it was so good. A good portion with the best-ever sauce and tasty linguini. My wife also enjoyed her linguini and clams which had most of the clams already out of the shell. My buddy who usually finds something to complain about was very happy with his veal parm. And, as always, the Caesar salad was great. I can't wait to dine there again and hope the veal scallopini is still on the menu.

When you have a waiter that knows their stuff it makes all the difference! Taylor described the meals in perfect detail, and recommended wines for pairing. The food and drinks are just impeccable! I'm from Youngstown, OH where we're very critical of "Italian food" and man this place is simply WORTH IT! GO!

Z Cucina was recommended by a client while I was in Columbus on a business trip. I was alone, so I sat at the bar and it happened to be Happy Hour. I come from Massachusetts, where they have banned Happy Hours. The menu has plenty of choices, all looked wonderful. I ordered the mussels and after my first plump delicious one, I asked where they get such good mussels in Ohio? Well, they are flown in from PEI and they were the best mussels I have ever had. Coming from New England, where I get fresh seafood all the time, I was impressed. Not only the mussels, but the diavolo broth hit with just the right amount of heat. The bread and oil they serve is to die for! I asked for the recipe of that secret sauce, it was sooo good. It has a special sweet/sour note that is very different. I told them they need to bottle it and sell it. I also got the mushroom pizza and the bartender, (sorry forgot his name) added a strained side of the tomato sauce to add, perfection! The chef came out to chat for a bit, had worked in Boston briefly, and was so nice. Thanks for a great dinner!

Came to this restuarant since my friend has been raving about how good it is for awhile. Our waiter, his name started with a T and sadly I don't remember, was very knowledgeable about not only the menu, but good pairings as well. He was there when we wanted him and not there when we didn't need him. The food was great. The stuffed risotto fritters were so good and the Italian "Shrimp & grits" was enjoyable as well. I wish I had order some of the fritters to go as a late night snack. Definitely recommend going!
