Excellent vegetarian options. Lots of parking nearby. Nice, cozy atmosphere. Customization possible on dishes. We were on a time crunch for the nearby IMAX movie at Jordan’s and they accommodated our request for fast service. Unique, fresh taste

I highly recommend ZUCCA. And that is because of several reasons.
– Delicious and fresh food
– Perfect portions and good price
– Great service
We ordered Penne Alla Romanata, and chicken pasta. We loved it.

Shrimp cocktail is a must try. Never miss it!

Poor. Space is cosy and service is friendly and efficient. However the pasta..is like someone inherited an authentic menu from an Italian and decided to make it with cheap ingredients from Market Basket. There is no way the carbonara is made with “egg, Italian pancetta” etc as the menu says. It came slathered in white-coloured CREAM which tasted of nothing, and the “pancetta” was tiny slivers of cheap, anaemic bacon. Stale sliced baguette on table. Bolognese similarly horrible. (“Like hamburger meat”.)

Bruschetta was tasty, purely because it had lots of balsamic on it. Could not taste olive oil. For 2 plates of the awful pasta and the bruschetta + 1 Coke we paid $70. Never again.

Came here for the first time tonight as a recommendation from a friend. Did not expect it to be a little hole in the wall but those are always the best places. Issac, was very friendly and welcoming from the second we walked through the door. The customer Service is great, but the food is even better. All fresh Italian food and you can tell it’s made in house. Definitely will be back for more

It’s not often that you find a restaurant that has excellent service and wonderful food, but this is one of those places. Isaac and the rest of the staff were very pleasant and went out of their way to make sure that we had a great experience. I highly recommend giving Zuccas a try and I can’t wait to try their breakfast place (Half and Half which is two doors down from Zuccas). Looking forward to a return visit!

It was our last night in Boston as we ended our vacation…and we wanted to have a fantastic meal with a seafood theme. Zucca did a superb job. At the advice of the owner my husband had salmon and I had lobster ravioli…it was excellent!

Felt very welcomed. Service was amazing! My kids loved the chicken wings and calamari. Pasta entrees were delicious and serving size was enough for dinner and leftovers for lunch. We discovered this restaurant by accident and so glad we wandered in on this rainy evening. We will definitely be back and bring friends and family. Thank you for a memorable dinner!

Incredible! I am one who never writes reviews but it would be a tragedy not to. Part of me didn’t want to as I want to keep this place as secret as possible, selfishly. Alas, I can’t help myself and would be doing a disservice to the Reading community (and incredible owners and waitstaff!)

Ok now, for the “review” part. We were in town visiting my Mom and decided to pop in here on a whim. It is a tiny hole in the wall place and anyone with kids knows that is not always the best choice for dining! We decided to give it a go anyway- without a reservation- and we were lucky enough to get a table. (Although i would highly recommend a reservation!) We were seated immediately and greeted by the friendliest waitress, Caitlin. She took our drink orders and endured the 27293 questions from our 7 year old with a smile. We ordered a couple of appetizers to start, bruschetta and calamari. Both delicious. When it came time to order our meals our son asked if they had Mac and cheese (duh). Our waitress, Caitlin, said they didnt have it on the menu but that they could absolutely make a version of Mac and cheese. He was thrilled with that- and a side of meatballs. I ordered the Chicken Parmigiana with linguini. My husband ordered the shrimp Veneziana and my Mom the Pappardelle Bolognese. Every single dish was a m a z i n g. Our very picky son was highly pleased and to be honest, I could have eaten his dish as my meal and been more than happy. It was so.freaking.good!! Easily some of the best Italian food I’ve eaten in a long, long time. We were pleasantly surprised.

Not only the food but the drinks as well. My Mom had some type of apple martini- I wish I could remember the name of it- but again, incredible. My husband ordered a couple old fashioneds which were not on the menu but they knocked it out of the park.

In between all of this deliciousness was a very fidgety and talkative 7 year old. The staff and come to find out, owners, were not only attentive, accommodating and friendly but also super patient and amazing with our son. The owner was so humble. He took the time out of his very busy evening to stop and show our son how to fold some super fancy napkins. Again. And again. He let him take a peek in the kitchen. They even unlocked their breakfast restaurant next door so he could go take a look and poke around. I mean, what?! Our kiddo is certainly not shy and we lovingly refer to him as “the mini mayor” as everyone in town knows him- but this was next level. Some of the nicest people you could ever meet. Delicious food and incredible service, what more could you ask for? Oh… but WAIT! F R E E limoncello shots on Saturdays. What the what?!

Do yourself a favor and GO EAT HERE! NOW! You will not be disappointed!!!
