Zia Maria (Dinner)

318 West 23rd Street
(between Eighth Avenue and Ninth Avenue)


Wrote a previous post when Zia Maria first opened and I tried their lunch special.

Finally had a chance to go for dinner.

As the restaurant specializes in freshly made pizza, we ordered a large four seasons pizza ($30) for two. Ingredients are mozzarella, prosciutto, mushrooms, artichokes, and olives


So much food that we ended up taking three slices home. Next time, I’ll go for the small (four slices, as opposed to the eight in a large pie)!

To accompany the pizza, I had a glass of their True Myth Cabernet Sauvignon ($12). With a full, bold taste and a smooth finish, I’m not surprised that it’s one of the restaurant’s most popular red wines. And the bottle is pretty stunning, too.


On weekdays, they also offer Happy Hour house wines ($6) from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. And the house wines are very good, in particular their Montepulciano.

 
Pros:
Friendly service.
Excellent wines for Happy Hour.


Cons:
Wish they offered a pie with six slices.


Final Thoughts
Would definitely go back for their Happy Hour as well as for the True Myth Cab!
