What’s Not to Like About Zucca?

Having dined recently at Zucca, I must take exception with S. Irene Virbila’s review (“Changing His Tune,” Restaurants, July 7). Our table had several appetizers and entrees, and other than a lamb shank that felt a little tired, the food was both creative and beautifully executed.

My principal complaint with the review is that Virbila seemed to dislike the restaurant mostly because it wasn’t what she thought it would be. It would be more helpful to readers if she would review the restaurant she went to rather than the restaurant she envisioned. The room is beautiful, the wine list imaginative, the service flawless, the prices reasonable, and the food delicious. What’s not to like?
