Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in Minnetonka

We were hosting a small family gathering pre-Christmas show. Zelo was the perfect ‘appetizer’! It’s our favorite Minneapolis restaurant and never fails to impress. Food is delicious, ambience perfect and a special thank you to our server Erica who was the perfect mix of attentive without being intrusive.

We were shown to a table that was too close to the window for our liking and were immediately given a different one. One of our favorite waiters greeted us and our assigned waiter graciously allowed him to be our waiter. He let us get settled and then took our beverage and appetizer orders. They were excellent as always. He paced his service to our desires. We both ordered the scallop special. It was perfect. Perfectly seared and the roasted vegetables and purees were a wonderful accompaniment. The bread was crusty and warm. We were also able to greet other favorite servers and felt totally welcomed.

A nice new addition to Open Table. A little pizza dive close to Loring Park festivities or the convention hotel scene. The one size 16 inch pizza is definatley enough to feed four, or half to take home for later! They do sell by the slice too.The 5 Meat Medley was loaded, I just wish it had more sauce. I loved the bacon crumble on it. Sometime, I would love to try their chicken . Staff are keepers.
