Nero's has finally opened in the space once occupied by Zig Zag (U Street
between 15th and 16th). Zig Zag's owner (perpetually annoyed by the less
than hospitable clientele and staff) closed Zig Zag, redid the space,
acquired a full liquor license, and reopened as Nero's.

Nero's prefix menu will change on a regular basis and contains a variety
of pasta dishes, appetizers, and wines. The presentation is similar to Il
Radicchio on 17th Street.

Nero's attempts to capture some Italian American charm with candles
dripping over Chianti bottles, Imperial Roman kitsch, and live opera on
selected weekend nights. Nero's also has an all-you-can-eat, full-service
brunch (which includes all you can drink Bloody Mary's) on Saturdays and
Sundays.

I've eaten a supper and a brunch and liked both a lot.
