Zona 78 is a lively joint serving traditional Italian, inventive reinterpretations and artisan pizza. You can go healthy with their fresh salads or throw caution to the wind with a meatball panini. The chefs try to source local ingredients when they can and offer a seasonal menu that changes based on whatever fresh ingredients they can find. And in a part of town where 9 p.m. seems like bedtime, they remain open until 10 p.m. every night. Mama Mia, we love this place!
