Nice tasty food, nice staff, ate it all - good for "chain food" - could have been a bit warmer, but minor gripe

We had such a lovely evening here tonight, Zizzi was clean, spacious and the decor was really cool.Our food was delicious and all of the staff were all so friendly and professional. Our waitress Morron was super friendly, making our eclectic 4 year old feel a million dollars, adding to the fantastic atmosphere.Thank you everyone 😚

Service was friendly and professional.However would have been better if the food was at a better standard considering the price you are paying. I'm glad I'm not lactose intolerant because the amount of cheese sauce that was on the lasagne was ridiculous but then only a sprinkle on the pizza. Paying £14 for a lasagne which doesn't even come with a side salad or chips. Food was super bland.Definitely won't be coming here again!

Good staff but the salad that I have ordered very badly I like the warm chicken in the Cesar endaladaI asked the waiter to heat up the chicken for me. But the cheap, ignorant, badly-mannered pizza chef they have will never return it.The customer pays and the customer is right. It was just a favor that I asked this rude man.Never again

Zizzi was good. Service was brisk. Seating was comfortable. Place was clean, wasn't in the bathrooms.Kitchen is visible from dining area and food was hot and taste good. Price was reasonable. Menu had good selection.

Disappointing.We'd had a take away from there during the lockdown. The food was nice enough but we thought it hadn't travelled well. Well, the food in the restaurant wasn't much better.Atmosphere.It was very noisy, mostly down to the acoustics and it being very busy. Combined with the interior decorating, which looks like they didn't bother to replace the ceiling after it was converted from a retail outlet, it wasn't conducive to conviviality. And our table was wobbly.ServiceThe service was friendly enough but I thought we were a bit rushed through. Starters arrived very soon after we had ordered and we'd only just finished those before mains arrived. Plates started to be cleared before we'd all finished eating.FoodI got the impression that everything had been taken out of the freezer and microwaved. My wife and I had the mushroom starter, which turned out not to be whole mushrooms but a thin layer of paste on toast with a slice of mozzarella melted on top. One of my son's had king prawns on a skewer in tomato sauce and they were excellent and my other son had the spicy garlic bread which he said was good. Two of us had the crab and ricotta cannelloni but there was so much melted cheese on top you could barely taste the crab and the cannelloni tubes had started to dry out as well. My wife had spaghetti carbonara and that was very good, and my son enjoyed his vegetarian pizza.We probably won't be eating there again because there are so many good independent restaurants in our neighborhood but sadly no decent Italian.

Great lunch venue. Fantastic meals all round, whether a salad, pasta or pizza we were all very happy. The only downside was the very average coffee.

Went out for an evening meal, restaurant was clean, staff were friendly and welcoming. The menu was great too with variety of selections with full meal details such as ingredients etc. Great price for the food can’t complain, the dessert options are nice too although not all options were available when I visited but nevertheless Zizzi was worth the trip. Keep it up.

📍Zizzi 🇮🇹🍝1. Garlic Bread with Mozzarella (£6.15) - Garlic Bread with Mozzarella & caramelised balsamic onions.2. Calzone Pollo Spinaci (£12.95) - Roasted chicken, speck, spinach & mushrooms, in a creamy mozzarella & Bechamel sauce, topped with coppa ham.3. King Prawn Linguine (£12.25) - King prawns & courgette ribbons in a hot roquito chilli, tomato & white wine sauce.4. Golden Millionaire's Slice (£5.85) - A chocolate chip cookie base, topped with layers of salted toffee & coconut chocolate ganache. Finished with splashes of gold.5. Pasta Crisps (on the house)Verdict: For starters, we had the pasta crisps and garlic bread with mozzarella. I was absolutely awestruck the minute I took my first bite of the garlic bread 😍😍😍 It was a festival of flavours - Ooey gooey cheese melted meticulously on soft garlic bread, perfectly matched with flavourful caramelised balsamic onions. The perfectly-congealed cheese strands that stretched seductively from every slice of the bread left me speechless!! 🧀 It was by far the cheesiest garlic bread I’ve had; in fact it tasted more like a mini cheese pizza 🍕The mains were also satisfactory, especially the calzone which was hand baked in their special oven. It was jumbo sized and loaded with various fillings 😱 It was all very overwhelming, but as you can tell how good the food was, we finished everything with a pleasurable experience. If I had to criticise an item off their menu, it would be the Golden Millionaire's Slice. The layers were indistinguishable and tasted very much alike - it felt like I was scooping a blob of chocolate batter; it was too sticky and chocolatey, lacking the different textural chemistry.I have to say that Zizzi is the perfect spot for Rustica seekers as their authentic Italian food will serenade your taste buds with its heavenly taste. The secret to Italian cooking is sapori e saperi (flavors and skills), which implies doing little to excellent fresh ingredients, and I have to admit that Zizzi nailed it 😍🇮🇹
