    Zambris can be a little slow of service sometimes, but only because they're delicious food is frequently ordered. Also it's pricey :p

    Obsessed with their crispy broccoli. I come back just for that broccoli. Servers are incredibly helpful. Our server spent quite some time just helping us decided what cocktails to order. Definitely recommend for a date night.

    This was a great event. The Zambri’s chefs put together a terrific menu to go with wines of 3 Italian wineries. And the wineries sent their winemakers to educate us about their wines and regions. Great food/wine matching.

    Food and service were very, very good . My complaint is the price, meal was expensive, to add to that $26.00 for a glass of house wine, really? I had no idea, had two glasses, $52.00 for wine, I could have bought a nice bottle for that price!!!
    Zambri'sResponded on May 5, 2025
    Hi Tracy, Thank you for your feedback — we’re very happy to hear you enjoyed the food and service during your visit. Regarding the wine, we want to assure you that we would never want any of our guests to feel misinformed or misled. That’s why all our wine pricing and pour sizes are clearly listed on the menu. The two glasses of wine you selected was a premium 9oz pour of a high-end Pinot Grigio, not our house wine. We understand that pricing can be surprising when expectations differ, but transparency is important to us, and our team is always happy to guide guests through the options available. We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts and hope to welcome you again in the future. Sincerely, Emily Davies General Manager

    Very disappointing. The spaghetti had a vinegary taste to it and the chicken Parmesan was very poor considering this is an Italian restaurant. Our server seemed preoccupied as well. Poor timing on delivering the courses. Glasses of wine a way overpriced.
