What to order: Lobster Ravioli · Spaghetti Carbonara · Zia’s Fried CalamariFrom Google Maps reviews.
Came here for a date night with my hubby! And it was definitely worth it. The calamari appetizer is a must get! One of the best Caesar salads I’ve had— very flavorful & cheesy! We ordered chicken parmigiana & linguini vongole. Both were delicious & not too heavy. The staff was very positive, welcoming, and made our experience great! I highly recommend this spot & will definitely be back!
The manager Granite (pictured on right) and his staff are top shelf! Enjoyed lunch on Sunday, May 17, 2026. Perfect weather. Chose to eat outside and they provide plenty of umbrella coverage. Enjoyed the service and the food is DELICIOUS! The Tomahawk steak with pasta was epic. I will come again. Fans from San Antonio, Texas.
5⭐️ Italian Experience in a 5⭐️ City. Visiting NY for the first time and everything is living up to the hype. But the brightest star is Zia Maria’s Italian Experience; I say experience because it’s more than just food. Located in the heart of Little Italy and surrounded by competition; Zia’s sets itself apart from it’s surroundings. Staff is excellent, cuisine is world class, and you have a great view of the Empire State Building from your patio seat. A++ all around. Service=Top Tier Food= Top T
