It is so very rare to find a reasonably priced, delicious Italian restaurant in NYC that meets certain standards. Even Little Italy can't compare when you've been eating Italian family cooking your whole life. Behold! Za Za.
My boyfriend stuck with a traditional pasta dish while I ventured out on a limb and after hearing the specials, selected the spinach ravioli. In my humble opinion you can really judge a restaurant by its homemade ravioli. WOW. This dish was incredible. Other items on the menu included the usual bruschetta and calamari, osso buco special which everyone seemed to be ordering, and $10 desserts (we did not try these...)
The big draw to this restaurant was the awesome patio garden out back that seats around 40. I have to say though, Zaza definitely gets shafted by its far east location. Wish it were closer!
Pros: Outdoor Patio, Decent Prices
Cons: Location
