Zizzi Restaurants

Recently visited for a family meal in a group of seven. Main meal took 2 (yes that’s two) hours to appear and when it did, two of the orders were incorrect. The calzones were unpleasantly spiced, a bit like a supermarket vindaloo.
The waiter was clearly agitated and out of his depth.
A free bottle of prosecco as an apology wasn’t very useful as most of us were driving!
It’s a lovely building and the ambience is pleasant but the service and food are iffy. I will not visit again — it’s the second time I’ve been there left feeling bemused at the price/​quality ratio. Better of making cheese on toast at home.

What to write?! It’s a chain I had the lemon chicken, which was ok, not more not less. Friendly staff

A typical Zizzi’s (good tasty menu with decent service) as long as you don’t go with a party of 4 or more. For large parties, the dining experience is a bit disastrous (in my own experience including stories from others). The service is beyond slow even for a basic drink order. We dined with friends once and waited 45min for a drink and 1 ½ hours for food. When the food came, it was quickly removed from one friend without apology or explanation!!! We were eventually told it was meant for some other patron. The manager came to apologise, although what we did receive was more of a rant from him as he was called from home (which we suspected was just upstairs). It is a good, just, for couples but for special eventsgo elsewhere!

Great calzone pizza. Modern place, great food
