    As you walk in to the restaurant you are enveloped by a warm hug of class and sophistication. The hostesses have picturesque smiles on and the managers greet you cordially. Every employee is dressed sharply and has a smile on. The outdoor patio has misters, the tables are elegant, and the essence of class floats through the air like the warm summer breeze. All that said, the cocktails were not good and the food was sub par at best. The caviar tasted fishy and we sent it back. The rigatoni and beet salad were the only things we actually enjoyed food wise. It’s really surprising because the prices at this place make you think you’re going to get the best quality there is to offer and it is definitely not that. It looks good on the plate… but it does not taste as good as it looks. We really wish the food and cocktails matched the atmosphere and service because unfortunately the food is the main event. We unfortunately don’t plan on going back but we do thank EVERY staff member at the restaurant and hotel. They are all amazing. Not sure what’s up with the food and drinks but it needs adjustments…hey if they change it up we will reconsider!

    Thank you for taking the time to share detailed feedback. We’re truly grateful for your kind words about our team and atmosphere—it means a lot to know that our service left such a positive impression on you. That said, we’re very sorry to hear that the food and cocktails did not meet your expectations. We understand how disappointing it can be when the culinary experience doesn’t align with the ambiance or pricing, and we take your comments seriously. Your feedback about the caviar and cocktails has been shared with our culinary and beverage teams for review, and we will be taking a closer look at how we can improve in those areas. We hope you'll give us another try sometime so we can show you how we've improved based off your feedback. Cheers! Zach McGrath General Manager

    My husband and I tried this place last night. We loved that they brought us a bit of champagne right away. Our server, Adam, was so nice and such a good waiter. Food was great I’d give it a 5 in looks and taste, but have to settle on 4. We started with the hamachi crudo which was so refreshing and beautiful. For entree I had the English pea and ricotta tortellini. It tasted amazing and looked even better. Unfortunately it came out very cooled down. My spouse had the Agua Pazza seafood stew. The tastes were amazing but they killed the shrimp, and way over cooked the Finfish. We didn’t send things back and just dealt with it. Did I say things looked and tasted amazing??Definitely would try again.

    Thank you so much for dining with us and for sharing such a thoughtful review. We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the champagne welcome, the beautiful presentation of the dishes, and Adam’s attentive service—he’ll be so happy to hear your kind words! We're also grateful for your honest feedback about the temperature of your tortellini and the seafood preparation. While we’re glad the flavors stood out, we regret that the execution didn’t fully meet expectations. Please know we’ve shared your comments with our culinary team to help us continue improving. It means a lot that you're open to visiting us again—we’d love the opportunity to deliver an even better experience next time. Thank you again for your support and insight! Cheers! Zach McGrath General Manager

    Last night, we decided to try La Zozzona for the first time. The focaccia bread with olive oil and basil made my eyes roll into the back of my head. Amazing and a great first impression. My espresso martini was perfect. The beet salad was unique and was sharable. My entree was seafood in a bath of rich broth and was bursting with flavor. We sat at an outdoor table and everything just felt so comfortable. We will be back!

It’s especially nice to hear you enjoyed the ambiance of our outdoor seating—comfort is something we really strive to create alongside great food and drink. Your kind words mean a lot to our team, and we can’t wait to welcome you back for another visit soon. Cheers! Zach McGrath General Manager

    We loved our time at La Zozzona. The food was very tasty, and especially the fish was super tender and buttery. The service was great. We will definitely go back.

    My husband and I enjoyed almost every aspect of our dining experience. The food was excellent and the staff very professional. We shared the squash blossoms and ordered our own salads plus entrees. We should have shared one salad because we were too full to finish our entrees which were excellent. The bonus is we will have leftover pasta and swordfish for dinner tonight. My only negative comment is that we chose this restaurant to celebrate our anniversary and we dressed accordingly. Being part of a resort some patrons came in their golf clothes, hats included. This diminished the special atmosphere for me, but I guess that’s to be expected at a resort.
    La ZozzonaResponded on May 3, 2025
    Thank you for the review, Pat! I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed your dining experience at La Zozzona. You make a good point about the portion sizes, although it's never a bad thing to have leftover pasta and swordfish. I also understand your feeling about golf attire diminishing the atmosphere. While we don't have a dress code, we always encourage our patrons to dress for the occasion and I'm happy that you and your husband were dressed to impress! Please come visit again soon. Cheers!
