What customers say?

“ Tasty! Overall the food was pretty good! I ordered the Arancini, tagliolini lobster and black truffle tagliolini. The lobster was cooked really well and had good flavour. The truffle pasta was also so good. It was served tableside and usually it gets overcooked at mkt restaurants but Zanti did a great job at keeping the pasta al dente! DELCIOUS flavour of truffle too!! Dessert was also good! ”

“ Came for a solo midweek happy hour. The HH food portions are SMALL, but the food is good. The ceviche was different with cucumbers and plantains. The crispy lasagna was just a square of lasagna in sauce - I don’t know why I thought it would be something else - the flavors were really good. The G is essentially a spicy margarita which was also well done. Not tracking the skull, but sure it’s fun. ”

“ Pretty good Italian here at Zanti. Started with the Black Truffle Beef Tartare which was super fresh and delicious. The truffles werent overpowering. There could have been a bit more of the bread. For the main I got the Truffle Cheese Ravioli which again, the truffle wasnt overpowering and I loved the sauce here. For dessert we got the Tortino Di Latte Bruciato which was a dulce de leche lava cake and it was stellar. So freaking good but it does come with an extended wait of like 25 mins or something so make sure to order in advance. I also tried the Smokey Hibiscus drink which came with a bubble which was fun. ”
