I have been going to Zio's for years, both the old restaurant and the new one. I am always amazed the place isn't packed. I have held several banquets and have always been extremly pleased with every aspect of the event. The food is reasonably priced when you factor in bread, soup or salad, and two side dishes. I always... more

This is the restaurant of choice for all of our family get-togethers. The owner always greets us and always throws out a joke or two. He will bend over backwards to accommodate our every need. They always come through for us with excellent food too. This place is a one of a kind experience, and I would imagine that the... more

The food was ok, the banquet room was nice until the management tried to cut the party short. and also had very crude remarks!!!! He was the worst host!!! It as a... more

Zio Fraedo's has always been our favorite restaurant. The food is excellent, the service is professional and friendly, and the atmosphere is conducive for a relaxing evening out. We highly recommend it. We've had a banquet for over 100 people, and everyone said their dinner was great. Do yourself a favor and enjoy a lovely evening at Zio Fraedo's. Tony... more

It was very appropriate for a family get together/dinner. Great food, great atmosphere and great variety on the menu. This is the kind of place that is ideal for a large family dinner or celebration, yet it is also conducive of a low-key girls' night out. Nothing wild, just Sex & The City-esque Some of the servers - , very... more

My cousin, two of my aunts and I came here for my cousin's birthday. The service was wonderful w/ no problems at all. The food came at a great time, not too fast, not too slow. The waiters/waitresses were very friendly. The food was delicious, there was nothing uncooked. And yes, I would take the next chance to go and... more

I visited Zio Fraedo's this past week to try them out again because I remember their food being great many years back. (Their restaurant closed due to a Fire and had to be rebuilt). The marinara sauce had no flavor - I can make a better sauce myself or even Ragu tastes better. The Chicken Piccata was bland as well.... more

We were looking forward to a true Italian elegant dining experience, because of the high prices. Boy, were we fooled! Stale foam bread was our first thing on the table, followed by a rancid salad with salad dressing stored in a moldy closet. Our meal was putrid and cold. This matched our servers attitude. The dessert was disgusting and we... more
