We did not have a reservation. They found a spot for us at the bar. Great spot. Food was fantastic. The service was even better. All of the staff were great. Our bartender was enjoyable and very on top of everything. Definitely on our return list.

Food was good but as a vegetarian, nothing wowed me. I got the Pasta aglio olio e peperoncino and it unfortunately tasted like a fancier buttered noodles from Noodles and Co. The bruschetta was delicious. The bread was toasted perfectly, and the tomato’s were covered in a tangy, spiced sauce blend. It was wonderful. Drinks, desert and our server (Breane/Brianna?) were all great! I would eat here again but would love a vegetarian friendly red pasta sauce!!

Zarletti is a wonderful spot for homemade pastas, great wine and incredible service. Emily our waitress was absolutely perfect - she made a celebratory meal feel extra special and her hospitality was super appreciative. We especially loved the limoncello - unlike like any we’ve ever had. Will always go out of our way for this place.

Went there for a birthday dinner and had an absolutely amazing experience! Excellent service from Bryan and the food and wine could not be beat. Had a unique opportunity to have a bottle of Sardinian wine and we were blown away. The bolognese and ravioli were absolutely delicious, and the burrata appetizer with prosciutto was amazing as well. Panna cotta dessert was to die for. The hostess was extremely friendly and the overall atmosphere was perfect. Definitely planning to be back soon!
