Let’s start with the good – the prices here are pretty good. I had an appetizer of fried ravioli. The cheese oozed out and filled with flavor. Definitely go and try.

Amazing Italian place. Loved the wine, 1/2 priced on Tuesday, the free warm bread, the appetizer fried ravioli was so good, the lasagna best I’ve ever tasted, the chocolate cake dessert had this amazing homemade frosting to die for, overall the place is perfect! Service was amazing, the price was impressive, they could charge way more for their amazing food, you can take all your family and not spend tons and eat yummy Italian food, we will definitely visit again.

Excellent Italian, you wont get a bad meal here. service was very good, we are big fans of the original family restaurant in endicott. the chicken piccata is excellent as is the harvest salad and the chop salad were both very good I wanted to order a second salad. The pizza pie is some of the best pizza I have ever had. I miss consols in Endicott and I’m glad we moved here. I would give it six stars if they let me

I visited Zio on Wednesday night and discovered that they have live music every Wednesday where the owner and his friend serenaded us with some beautiful jazz while we were waiting for our food. The food arrived in a timely manner, considering how busy it was and well worth the wait. I ordered the fig and goat cheese pizza, and it was divine. I didn’t realize how close this amazing restaurant is to my practice. I will be back soon!

I recently ate dinner at Zio Casual Italian for the first time. It is a quaint little restaurant. I ordered the meat lasagna and I really enjoyed it. They also have a good selection of wine by the glass. The fresh bread that comes with your meal is fantastic. Zio’s is a nice, casual Italian restaurant.

One of my absolute favorite neighborhood spots. We probably go at least once a week. Hate to post a good review and not be able to get a table again!!

We loved our visit to Zio. We drove up from Charleston just to have a little taste of Endicott, NY Italian! This place did not disappoint. Very welcoming staff. Delicious food and a nice dog friendly porch.
