10NL FR - AA vs. flop raise from unknown on dry board 10NL FR - AA vs. flop raise from unknown on dry board

This is a Zoom hand, no HUD and I don't recognise villain. The play seems very nitty with the occasional fish. I was confused as to what was the best play when facing the flop raise. My options:

Fold: seems very nitty, he could be raising my smallish cbet on a dry board as a bluff/semibluff, probably not that likely at these stakes.
Call: no draw, I may be behind and I'll likely have to call more bets to see a showdown.
Raise/get it in: Depending on how he plays QQ/JJ this could be ok, but again at these stakes I probably have the worst of it if I get it in.
Raise/fold: Get him to fold his bluffs/semibluffs and maybe QQ/JJ and give him value with his sets. It doesn't seems to make any sense to raise as a bluff.

What is the standard in this spot and why? Also should I be cbetting here?

Yeah cbet, for value. I think calling and re evaluating is what I would do in game since we do have position, although folding might be best in theory. Havent played zoom.

of course you should be cbetting here. don't ever raise/fold

as played i'm calling flop without history, vs a reg i'd be 3b/calling but i haven't played zoom and i assume most people play straight forward.
