Best Italian food in AL

The food at SaZa is a unique fusion of old and new. While it’s authentic and traditional Italian food, it is also new and inventive. This eclectic blend stems from the fact that about 80% of SaZa’s menu is made up of recipes from Chef Joe DiMaggio Jr.’s grandmother. Chef Joe is renown for creating fresh and innovative food. He describes SaZa’s menu as extreme peasant cuisine. One of SaZa’s most-asked-for pasta dishes is our Rigatoni Bolognese, which has a rich sauce made from carrots, celery, onion, veal, beef, pork, and cognac, then is roasted for five hours before it’s hit with cream. Carmelina’s San Marzano tomatoes are tossed with fresh herbs and rigatoni pasta to round out this unforgettably classic dish. Our stuffed Anaheim Hot Peppers are truly a choice treat, made with veal, beef, pork, carrots, onion, fresh mozzarella, and cognac, all stuffed into Anaheim chilies, slow roasted and topped with more fresh mozzarella. Traditional pastas are also a favorite choice including amazing touches such as our number one seller, angel hair served with Maine lobster meat, chopped shrimp and spinach in a chardonnay, exploded garlic and olive oil sauce.
