- KKassandraBaltimore / Maryland •7 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoHi Zeffirelli Ristorante Italiano team, My friends and I had a wonderful time at your restaurant on June 9th! It was our second visit, and it felt like stepping into Italy – absolutely charming! From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable. The way our chairs were pulled out and napkins placed was such a nice touch, totally unexpected! Our cozy corner booth, with its lovely Venice painting and mirrors, added to the ambiance. The lighting and noise levels were perfect – we felt like we were the only ones there! Our waiter was super friendly and attentive; she made us feel so welcome and never rushed us. We skipped the cocktails, enjoying sparkling water (which was always refilled!), and savored the delicious bread while we perused the menu. The entrees – chicken masala, veal lasagna, and scallopini di Vitello porcini – were all perfectly cooked and so flavorful! Portion sizes were great too. And oh my goodness, the desserts (panna cotta, tiramisu, and cheesecake) were the perfect ending to the meal! They were incredible! Overall, the food, service, and atmosphere were truly outstanding. We'll definitely be back! Thanks again for a memorable evening. Kassandra WyattMore infoZeffirelli Ristorante ItalianoPrice: Expensive• Italian• Herndon•4.6
