    Perfect evening. Delightful service, exceptional food, great wine, corner table. Life is better at Zefferelli’s. We have been going for 18 years and it never disappoints.

    Another outstanding culinary experience. I’ve been coming here for thirty years and it never disappoints. If you’re looking for an upscale Italian food experience look no further than this place. The food quality and service equally outstanding. Plenty of parking as well in a parking lot beside the restaurant in quaint downtown Herndon. Impressive wine selection and wonderful desserts as well. Tiramasu deliciouso! Highly recommend.
