    Overall, very average. Especially for a higher end establishment. The environment and atmosphere lacks any character and was stark. The staff was polite and friendly, but unpolished. Pace your ordering, things came out quickly. Matter of fact our appetizer came out before our 1st drinks, which we ordered 10 minutes prior to ordering our app. Also, my wife's drink came out a few minutes before mine. We didn't order anything special - a manahttan and a vodka martini. We usually like to enjoy our 1st cocktail prior to the app. Then we usually get a bottle of wine. However, everything came out so fast that we just each got 1 glass of wine. Lost sales opportunity! The food... the prosecco oysters were just meh. The red pepper sauce used to dip the focaccia bread in was bland. The menu was a bit eclectic if you were looking for traditional Italian food. The choices were interesting, yet the dishes we had lacked seasoning. We each had a salad, I had the Ceasar. It was very good. Probably the best part of the meal. Beware though -not your traditional Ceasar salad. My wife had the arugula and beet salad. She liked it very much and commented on how good the dressing was. Our entrees were average. I had the orecchiette and my wife had the Rock Shrimp ravioli. We thought both should have been more flavorful. The vanilla bourbon gelato was a tasty dessert! A perfectly brewed espresso was enjoyed and served with a lemon twist! Many restaurants have not done this lately As mentioned, overall an average meal and evening. I do have high standards as I visit many restaurants literally around the world due to my extensive business travels. This place has big potential, just needs to up its game some.

    The food was delicious! The drinks were also tasty. We had the special appetizer, oysters, which were phenomenal! I ordered the linguini with clams and my husband ordered the chicken parmesean. We were both very satisfied with our meals. This was our first visit to Z Cucina and will definitely return.

    Spacious, lively but not-noisy new restaurant, greeted at the door by the owner. Quick service by pleasant knowledgeable servers. Quality, fresh, authentic northern Italian food at a very reasonalbe price (compared to nearby Cameron Mitchel eateries). Good selection of wines - indeed a lovey evening for us

    This is a very nice restaurant. They do charge if you cancel any of your reservation - $25/person. Make sure you're going to show up. The location is beautiful. We didn't get an outside table this time, but inside was very nice too. The music was a little loud, but still a good experience. They were willing to turn it down a little for our party which was much appreciated. The cheese risotto appetizer is INCREDIBLE! Don't miss it! My party got a variety of dishes. The special was veal and came highly recommended. Sadly, it was a bit tough and both parties who ordered did not finish it. We did let the waiter know and he relayed the information to the kitchen. The mushroom risotto was very good. Grouper also good. The filet was cooked perfectly rare. Besides the appetizer, that was probably the best bet. We celebrated a birthday and a free mousse dessert was brought. It was luscious. Our waiter was excellent. Service top notch!

    Our service last night was not very good. I noticed she got sat back to back and one was a large table so we kind of understood. However, she would disappear for long times and we were there for almost 2 hours. We’ve been many times and even with dessert and coffee it’s never taken that long. Additionally it’s the first time I can say I was overly impressed with my food. I got the Butcher’s Steak and ordered it medium rare. It came out basically well done. I got a replacement and it was good but not great. I did love the blue cheese risotto. Overall we will definitely be back but the service is usually hit or miss and last night was definitely a miss.

    Dinner for 4. The Orecchiette Pasta alla Zozzona was very good, by far the best meal of the night. Our guests ordered the rock shrimp ravioli and lasagna - both good/average. The ravioli is filled filled with a variety of very strong flavored cheese which sadly overwhelmed the dish (we didn't finish or take it to go). Lasagna was served in a mini cast skilled with freshly baked melted cheese on top, good/standard lasagna. Presentation of the dishes was lovely. Water glasses filled throughout the meal. Homemade bread was delicious. The sauce on the Mussels was very tasty, with a kick. The Caprese salad as stated on the menu is made with hot house tomotoes - they weren't ripe, the mozzarella was also without taste - even though the slices of both tomatoes and cheese were big the taste was absent. The calamari was good but very fried. Great location, nice outdoor seating area. The Limoncello was delicious as a way to end the meal. Would give it another try.

    We had a very enjoyable visit for my wife's birthday. Our server Benjamin was very knowledgable about the menu offerings and extremely helpful and pleasant. Service gets a 5/5. We sat indoors, and I wish the atmosphere was a bit more ambient and cozy. The food was excellent (we tried the risotto fritters, scallops and orecchiette pasta), portions were reasonable, and the bread and dipping oil that comes to the table is out of this world. My wife was treated to a small dessert to help celebrate—very much appreciated!

    Food was mediocre at best. The lasagna was not as tasteful as you would expect for an Italian restaurant. The Follet was not cooked appropriately. The mash potatoes underneath was soupy and not good flavour… the green beans were burnt. Even the lemon drop martini was just not good… with so many choices in the Dublin area to eat and the new Valentina restaurant around the corner. I would not choose this restaurant again.. Columbus has so many good restaurants. Unfortunately this is not one of them.
