I am a big believer in supporting smaller restaurants and Zeppoli is a collingswood favorite.. however last night the $200 we spend was extremely disappointing.. the food was excessively salty ( how do you manage to make even a side salad to be salty?), ribeye steak was rare even though we asked for it to be medium and large portion had too much fat , fisherman stew was inedible- again excessively salty.. also not sure if the heat was turned on at the restaurant.. the only highlight was the bread and the dessert..not sure if the original owners no longer there but as I read thru some of the reviews, but some of these complaints are coming up. Not going back.

Easily the best dining experience in the Philly area. The food is excellent, and the front of house is really on point. The ambiance is exactly the right amount of hustle and bustle to provide privacy of conversation in a otherwise (wonderfully) close/cozy seating space. The timing between courses is bizarrely perfect (making me want to do it again just to make sure they pull that off every night!). It all really allows for a person to just sit, enjoy conversation, and experience some amazing food. Food-wise I was most blown away by the perfect amount of fennel in the sausage. My wife would have ordered the gnocchi for every course. Each course was excellent and I could go on and on about the little unique points in each course— but at $75/person for a prefix meal, splurge a little and try it yourself. It’s easily worth twice that.

Cute little Italian spot with a more romantic type of atmosphere. Definitely a quieter, more date type of place. I enjoyed the food (gnocculi was unique and stand out) and experience, I only wish there was a little more transparency on pricing.The restaurant is prefixe only (except take out)- I only learned of this only after I received a reservation confirmation text, as it’s not mentioned on their website nor upon booking online. While this isn’t my preference, the restaurant is very local to me and I had been wanting to try it out, so we went for it.Additionally, there are several price tiers and none of them are even listed on the physical menu at the restaurant (nor the website). Of course the waiter will take you through everything but it would just be nice to know exactly what things cost, how much each add on is etc., straight up.All that aside, they do appear to have a lovely outdoor patio so I look forward to trying it out again for a special occasion in the spring!
Such amazing food, love the atmosphere and overall experience, definitely recommend!

Very worth the trouble of getting a reservation! The food was absolutely amazing! If I had to say something negative about anything I had it would only be that the pasta dish was too lemony if that's even a word. Will be going back again ASAP!

The ambience was dim & great for date night. The chairs were a bit slippery lol. My boyfriend and I did the pre-fixe 3 course pasta option. We shared the antipasto, which had a lot. It probably could've used more meats & cheeses. I got the pesto which I really liked. My boyfriend got the lemon pasta, which he really seemed to enjoy. I thought it may have been a little too lemony/intense. We ended with the cannolis and the zeppolis which were tasty. The place is BYOB which is nice. The staff was very friendly.Went on 10/5/2023

Very nice experience, again, at this fine BYOB gem.Gnocchi, swordfish, seafood stew, and almond panna cotta, all delicious and prepared to perfection.Good service, albeit servers a bit stretched thin during the rush.Can't wait to be back.
Everyone had highly recommended zeppoli so we were excited to go. The atmosphere is cute and cozy. It’s a small, intimate place with and old school feel maybe 12 tables. The service was excellent. However, the food was so insanely salty. I put salt on everything but every dish that we go was so over salted it was overwhelming. The best part was the dessert, the zeppoli and gelato were very good.

Excellent service, excellent dessert - all the food we had was SOOOOO salty. And we are people that love salty food! The amount of salt honestly ruined the meal, we packed it up to take home and try to fix at home. The food is presented beautifully and the ingredients are tasteful, but the salt unfortunately over powered everything. We definitely would have rated 4-5 stars if the food wasn’t so salty. Everything else was great.

Small loud, lively place that serves Sicilian food. Some interesting flavours that didn't quite live up to the hype for us. Prime rib and rabbit were excellent, however the lemon pasta and gnocchi dishes were not as well made in our opinion
Anthony Leone
The food was excellent. The ambience was very nice. Unfortunate the service and staff did not match the food. For the price you paid for an excellent meal the staff could be a little more attentive. It needs to be improved to the same level.
