Zeppa Bistro: Menu & Drinks 

Before diving into their flagship, the pizza, let's explore other options at Zeppa Bistro. The salads are a fresh and vibrant start to any meal. The Italian Chop, a medley of romaine, tomatoes, assorted veggies, and meats like pepperoni and turkey, topped with Asiago cheese and a balsamic vinaigrette, presents a harmonious blend of flavors and textures. 

The Summer Sorriso, combining spinach, watermelon, Feta, and almonds with a raspberry vinaigrette, is refreshing for those seeking something light yet flavorful.

Heartier selections include paninis like the Caprese Chicken Panini, which features marinated chicken breast, tomatoes, spinach, and fresh mozzarella. It's all combined with pesto aioli and a balsamic drizzle on focaccia for a classic Italian panini.
