Penne Del Contadino was out of this world. Margherita Pizza was delicious, with a thin, yet very satisfying, crust. Grandma’s Cheesecake was the perfect ending for a perfect meal. If the Executive Chef and Managing Partner looks veryserious while overlooking his dining room, it’s because his name is on the line (and he has one dozen years of a great name toprotect). Francesco Farris is an engaging and wonderful gentleman who loves what he does (and it shows in the quality of thefood and the service). Go. Quite simply. Go to Zio Cecio. You’ll be glad that you did!

After a wonderful meal of fresh burrata, cioppino and a perfect ribeye, I was too full for dessert but only one bite was not enough. The desserts were so beautiful and delicious I didn't have time tosnap a picture before they were devoured. The atmosphere was romantic and the service was like coming home after a hard-dayswork to relax on the porch with friends.This isn't just a great meal it's a great experience.
