   One of our favorite local restaurants, and it didn't disappoint. Food, cocktails and wine were all top tier. Will be back soon.

   We discovered that we’ve been coming here for 10 yrs, that tells y’all something there! Zarletti’s is a small but exquisitely decorated downtown Italian restaurant. The meals, appetizers, wines etc are almost all from Italy. The service is great, the wait staff know their foods, drinks and wines. We found them this time, as usual, to be friendly, available but non-intrusive & very nice. Our meals were wonderfully prepared and awesomely delicious!! The red wine we opted for was perfect for our meals. Oh, their take on an old-fashioned was fun and delicious. We’re allowed to relax, take our time to enjoy drinks and food, never any sense of hurry. We love coming here and would strongly recommend Zarletti’s.

   We've been going to Zarletti's for years once or twice a year and always on our anniversary. My husband looks so forward to Osso Buco. It truly is out of this world. We had lovely service, however, when we got home, I wanted to see why without drinks, the total was over $170. I had the fish, which also is delicious. However, I wasn't told that to substitute noodles and red sauce pasta was an additional 10.00, which means my Seafood was $47.95. While I understand up- charges, I don't understand how that can not be relayed to us. Also, a $12 Caesar salad to split it was $18. again, these charges add up, especially when you are not told. It should be a mention. I still love the food at this restaurant and we would give anything to have the Zarletti's in Mequon have some of the same entrees. How could 2 restaurants be so completely different? We would definitely go again, but we would pay attention to the details. We also miss the valet service. We think about that when we're coming downtown in the winter. The Affogate desert is our favorite. Hot espresso over vanilla ice cream.

   The food was amazing. The waiter was the best ever, and the manager gave us some Limon cello for our anniversary in one word amazing.
