My First Birthday in Houstonš
š“Zanti Cucina Italiana - River Oaks š¦This year, I celebrated my birthday at Zanti Cucina Italiana, an Italian restaurant with an amazing atmosphere. As you walk in, on your left are two modern, minimalist circular chandeliers, and on your right are vintage, opulent crystal chandeliers. The restaurantās lighting gradually dims along with the outdoor light, creating a cozy ambiance. Thereās also a patio area you can choose from. For those who love taking photos, I recommend coming in the early evening when itās not yet dark. š I started with the Mediterranean hummus and Bounties of the Sea as appetizers. These two dishes were pretty average. One of them was a special menu item, and the hummus with pita bread was indeed filling.š„© š©µFor the main course, I had the Tagliatelle Bolognese and Ribeye. The pasta was fantastic! The Bolognese sauce was very rich and, in my opinion, the best dish of the night. I ordered the steak medium-rare, and it came with arugula salad and roasted potatoes, which were also quite good. When I told the waiter it was my birthday, they surprised me with a flaming ice cream brownie, which was super cuteš„. Both the food and the service were quite good. The waitress even took photos for us. Overall, I highly recommend this place! #HoustonFood #HoustonEats #HoustonLife #HoustonFineDining #HoustonPhotos #HoustonBirthdayRestaurant #DateNightRestaurant #AtmosphericRestaurant
