Highly recommend! Mussels are best we've had! (We ate those before pic taken) Crab ravioli, Pollo gnocchi with chicken breast(perfectly cooked, moist)topped with bacon, deep fried brussel sprouts! Clean, slow paced restaurant. Eat and enjoy! Coming back again to try the meatball burger and lasagna. Melissa was an awesome waitress!

We celebrated our 5 year anniversary here. Our server, Aurora, was amazing. The food was incredible. It was cooked perfectly and out in a timely manner! We were given bread before our meal. Overall, everything was great! However, there was a 4% credit card fee on our total bill. We will be back!!

Overall, everything was wonderful. We sat at the bar and got to watch all the drinks being made. That was entertaining. And he makes the best slightly cherry Coke with grenadine. Literally perfection. For a very small space, they had the tables nicely arranged. The fries and aoili were good, the Flatbread pizza was lovely, and the chicken was perfection. The sauce was a little bland, but I cook something similar at home. I'm biased. We will come back and try new things, but those fries WILL get ordered again.

Good food, great service. It was a nice night out for my birthday. Got a free drink for my birthday. More than I usually spend for dinner out but the food was good and I even had leftovers for the next day which really made it worth it.

The service was impeccable. The whiskey sour, delish. I've had the shrimp scampi linguine & and mussels. Delicous. The music was light and fitting for the restaurant. We have been here twice on our anniversary, the second was recently & just as great of an experience. The server was educated on the menu as well as wine options. 10/10 would recommend.

Awesome birthday celebration! The handcrafted cocktails were beautiful to look at and delicious to drink. We started with a shrimp appetizer that had an awesome flavor and texture. For dinner we had the scallops, ravioli and a sausage entree. All of us thought our order was the best choice. We celebrated with dessert of Tiramisu, pumpkin Cheesecake and Chocolate cake. The service was gracious and attentive. A wonderful discovery and will return on a future visit to Zimmerman!

We dined here tonight and really enjoyed it. Staff was friendly and food was delicious! We had the bruschetta, Calabrian Pasta, Beef Short Rib Ragu Pappardelle, and the kids Chicken Cutlets. For dessert we had the Volcano Cake. All very tasty! We'll definitely be returning.

Andrew and his team went above and beyond to make our Valentine's day (early celebration due to work) one to remember. The service was impeccable. The food left me speechless. Thank you Andrew and thank you team Vita Bella!
