My husband and I went to Zio's using a Cudo voucher. The menu was very highly priced so the voucher was a good way to try the restaurant without blowing the budget. Even with a voucher which included two glasses of 'champagne', two entrees and two mains, I was disappointed and felt we had paid too much. For entrees we... More

My husband and I went to Zio's on a Friday night to redeem a Cudo voucher ($79 for 3 courses) and we had a fantastic meal. For entrée we had quail and calamari, mains were steak and duck, desserts were dark chocolate and hazelnut praline pudding and chocolate soufflé. Everything was good quality and beautifully presented. The chocolate soufflé was... More

Its a quiet atmosphere and positive vibe and lovely service. Table booking recommended because its... More

If you want to have a stylish and tasty meal, at a better restaurant without murdering your budget, try Zios. A few minutes walk from down town Melbourne. Service is impeccable, food is great ( and just a little different ) and ambience is classy. More

My wife and I have been to Zio's probably five times in the past three years and have never been disappointed. Our recent visit was for a 2012 Valentines dinner and once again had a great experience. The food was as good as ever, their duck is alway fantastic, and their chocolate souffle has to one of the best going... More

We must have gone to different restaurants .Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff (one of the owners, Cathy, even stopped by the table for a quick chat), warm and inviting atmosphere (beautiful open fire), delicious and well-presented food (I highly recommend the ribeye steak and chocolate souffle), all very reasonably priced! Great Boutique wine list. I thoroughly enjoyed my first evening... More

My friends and I used to eat at Zios many years ago and always enjoyed it. We went back recently but regretted the decision.
