    We always get a great meal at ZP. The place was very crowded for a Tuesday evening, and many people showed up without reservations. The staff worked diligently to make sure that everyone was attended to, and we applaud their hard work. In our humble opinion, we feel that ZP always meets the standard for how an excellent restaurant should run - they reward their customers with great food and service.

    Great food. The panna cotta dessert was absolutely amazing. Steak and pork chop both perfect. The dipping sauce for the calamari was wonderfully flavored. Good service. Highly recommend this restaurant.
