We finally made it out to Italiana by Zod. It took us a month to get a reservation. We missed Chef Zod’s cooking since Blue. The food was fantastic, but we missed Chef Zod’s high end dishes. This is more of a high end pizza and pasta place, but a waste of great talent. The service was amateur but friendly, so we will probably do takeout in the future.
We enjoyed an excellent spicy sausage pizza with fresh mozzarella, onion, and hot chili peppers; a fantastic gigli pasta with mushrooms, pecorino cheese, black truffle, and scallions; excellent fire roasted meatballs with creamy ricotta and garlic; roasted mushrooms with pecorino, hazelnut, truffle, and egg yolk. It all went great with an excellent cabernet and red blend.
