   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.

   Overall wonderful experience for a party of 11. Zarletti had a table set up for us in our own private-ish space in the back of the restaurant. We had our own server who was very good and stayed on top of all of our multiple requests. The food was OUTSTANDING. We ordered appetizers for the table, individual entrees with soup or salad, and desserts to share, plus drinks and wine. As a big group we ordered some of everything and it was all was great. The Ossobuco was to die for, the fish dishes, veal, and chicken were amazing, and the pasta was fresh and sooooo flavorful. Most plates at the table were eaten completely clean. Larger groups are required to sign a contract and spend a minimum amount per person ... and we, even in our total joy of eating, we did not meet the required minimum ... however, we were able to have the amount up to the contracted minimum not spent put on a gift certificate for future use. Don't worry about the contract. One small note, we ordered champagne to have with our appetizers and to make a celebratory toast. The champagne was uncorked and let sit AND the glasses used to serve it were large wine glasses. It had lost most of its bubbles very quickly with the uncorking early and pour into the large glasses ... it was still delicious but just not as festive and fun. Champagne should be served in a way that preserves its bubbles. We will return, in smaller groups.
