Review content:
The chef has been cooking in Atlanta for years. I first tasted his cooking when he was the sous chef at Abruzzi (now closed due to retirement of the owner) in Peachtree Battle Shopping Center. He then became executive chef at Broadway Danny's also in Peachtree Battle for the the same, now retired, owner of Abruzzi. He then had his own restaurant (Arturo's in Dunwoody) which he sold and has been at Zucca ever since. \r

I have been eating at Zucca since the chef arrived years ago. The food is excellent, fresh, and very authentic. It reminds me of Sunday dinners at my Itallian Aunt's home in the Bronx as a child. The executive chef takes one month (August) in the summer to go to Italy to cook in his uncle""s restaurant and catch up on the latest Italian cooking trends and then brings it back to Atlanta. September at the restaurant is truely remarkable. In late Janaury he goes back to Italy to work on his baking techniques for 10 days and brings that back to Atlanta. Everything is homemade (including both the sweet and hot sausage which the chef stuffs in the restuarant). In the winter try some of the home made gnocci that is the chef's father's recipe. Service is excellent and and the foccacio (which is topped with onion, tomato, basil, olive oil, and garlic ) is some of the best I have ever tasted. I spent a great deal of time in Italy in 2005 -06 and I found a dish in Torino I really liked when and I came back to Atlanta, I told the Chef (Danny) about the dish. He and his staff now make it for me any time I ask for it. Off menue specials are not a problem. If you are looking for excellent home style Italian cuisine in a casual fun environmment then this is the place for you. \r

With repsect to the few comments about soggy pizza or poor service, no restaurant is perfect. But whenever I have experienced any sort of problem, I mention it to the maager and corrections are made immediately. With respect to ""soggy Pizza"" just consider the source.
Pros: Food qualitry and quantity
Cons: Long waits early in the evening during spring, summer, and early fall
