I have such a soft spot for Zarra's - I remember when this place was the Electric Banana and I love that they have all of the kitschy items and oddball antiques which gives this place so much character and provides for a unique dining experience. This is a family run business - and the servers are wonderfully friendly and the food is fresh and delicious and if you are lucky enough to be there on a day that Judy is in the kitchen you are in for a real treat. The food is always good, but you can always tell when it's made by Judy's expert hands. I've been here many times and will definitely be back again and again.
Probably my favorite thing on the menu is the Ricotta Dumpling Soup. It is one of the best soups that I've ever had in my life! I've sometimes gone there just to get soup and salad because the soup is that delicious. I've tried many of their entrees, but one of my favorites is the simple Algie i Olio which I sometimes add the Italian tuna to the dish to make it even more mouthwatering and delicious. Judy's Ricotta Noodles are warm, pillowy delights topped with the rich tomato sauce - absolutely delicious! The Melenzane Romano is another one of my favorite dishes. There are so many great things on the menu and even though I've dined at Zarra's many times, I still haven't tried even half the menu because I keep going back to my favorites time and again. Great Italian food!
