  • Zucca has a powerful duo in its kitchen and front of house as both are manned by talented and experienced professionals which results in a enjoyable midtown dining experience. My dining buddy Christine C and I ventured outside of our usual eating perimeters one night to dine here and it didn't disappoint. This is a lovely and warm trattoria serving creative and contemporary Italian fare. It's also filed with midtown regulars which is another good sign. Once seated we were greeted by the gracious and knowledgeable owner Blair, who gave us a brief run-down of the seasonal menu and the nightly specials. Blair is the consummate host, he offered polished, warm service and never missed a beat in topping up our wine and water. The kitchen sent off farinata as the amuse bouche, little chickpea crepes with olives and rosemary. These were gobbled up quickly they were mouthwatering! We started off our meal with the daily soup to share-a porcini barley soup ladled over a dried wholewheat bagel. Very hearty and rustic, with satisfying flavours. For a pasta and main, we chose to split a ziti and a walnut-crusted tenderloin. The ziti came adorned with a punchy caper tomato sauce with eggplant and topped with some toasted breadcrumbs. The sauce was the highlight as it was lush and complex but the pasta was little off the mark being a tad al dente or chewy. Still pastas are one of the specialty's here, and I wouldn't hesitate to order pasta from here again as they have some interesting housemade creations from whole wheat to squid-ink. The main was a walnut crusted tenderloin which was expertly panfried and tender but suffered from underseasoning or a lack of sauce. We also appreciated that each of our dishes was split proportionately, what a nice touch. 3 and a half stars. Exemplary service and inventive italian cuisine. We had a few misses in our dishes but not enough to distract us from return visits.
