Zanti

For a friend's birthday, they picked Zanti.
I was happy to oblige.  Good food, good environment, sign me up.

Super fancy front door, they do have valet or try your luck around the shopping center.

To start, we ordered burrata and prosciutto, which comes with green tomato like a caprese.  The burrata was pretty good, this dish was one of the best for the evening.  

We were lucky to they have tuna tartare.  It's good, but we've had better.

We ordered the lobster pizza to share.

You can see the decent amount of lobster meat on there. Pizza is not bad.

We also ordered the Ribs, it does fall off the bone, but there were more fat than meat, flavor is also not fully rounded.  

That said, the side of Bussels Sprouts was delicious.

And potato can hardly go wrong.

For my friend's birthday, they brought over the dulce de leche lava cake with vanilla ice cream.  The whole thing and presentation is definitely worth getting.  

We also got the tiramisu, which came in the coffee pot, quite unique, and pretty good too.

I will say, coming here, definitely make a reservation.  On weekend nights, it's very much a seen or be seen type crowd.  We were seated right by the bathroom.  And when we brought it up to our hostess, she seated us in the middle with a very tight 2-top.  Was worse than by the bathroom.  So having a bigger group helps in this case.

They do have a pianist/singer to provide live music, and he does do a great job.  The service is top notch, everyone is courteous, polite and white glove.  I will say one thing was that the server mixed up our drink, that was a bit awkward, otherwise, the rest is fine.  Kinda disappointed that not every dish knock it out of the park.  Only somewhere, and for those aren't good enough for me to make a return.  But the pizza was good.
