"Not the best visit we’ve had at this Zizzi’s. We visited on a Thursday evening at 8pm, so relatively quiet. The bar staff were stood around talking whilst we were waiting for drinks. The starters were really great so we were expecting the mains to be of the same quality, but this wasn’t the case. We asked for 2 items to be left out of one of our mains, after waiting about 30 minutes the waitress said that the chef accidentally added the item and asked whether it was ok for me to eat it rather than him making a new one. I personally don’t think this should have even been a question, it should have been re made without me needing to know. The main came out and was clearly very strong in chilli (this was the item I asked to be left out) and turns out there was loads of chillis in there and not just a few like they said. This completely ruined my main. The meatballs in the calzone didn’t seem fully cooked, and typically ever since we have both felt unwell. We’ve both had this main before and it was completely different and no way near as big or as much filling as usual. The waitress at the start was really helpful, but towards the end she was seeming to slack and not give as good service like she did the start. We originally went in the restaurant wanting desert also, but due to the poor quality of the mains we decided not to. Overall we were really looking forward to a long due date night, but the food wasn’t up to standards and we won’t be returning sadly."

"We went to Zizzi, Oxford for a late dinner after the cinema so it was pretty empty. We were able to sit down half an hour earlier than I had booked and got our drinks quite quickly. We ordered bread for our starter, which came promptly, and the waitress went to get the vinegar. No-one reappeared with any olive oil so we asked for some. The man we had asked wondered off, came back shrugged his shoulders, pointed at the vinegar and walked away again. I wondered for a second if I was going mad-I was pretty sure that wasn't the olive oil! Then I noticed some on the other tables so got some myself. The food came about minutes after the starter had arrived so we got it all in one go; not great but better than waiting for ages I suppose. I ordered a spaghetti dish but wasn't given a spoon to eat it with. I tried to get somebody's attention for a while but no-one was around so I found a cutlery draw on a nearby table (the one with all their colouring books for kids etc) and got one myself. A waitress did then come past and I asked for parmesan. She came back and grated half of it over me and promptly left again! Each time we were served or asked for anything it was a different person and all, bar one, were rude. The food was alright but nothing special and not worth the money. The service was so bad I actually wondered if it was supposed to be part of the charm'! Will not be going back again."

"We came here for a Father 's Day lunch. No draft beers but the bottled beers we had were lovely and cold. The building is stunning a beautiful old church which was what inspired us to book here in the first place. The staff were very attentive and really friendly, and the food was lovely. We were delivered an extra dessert by accident and rather than let it go to waste, we were given it for free. We really did have a lovely time, but what marred it was the fact they they take payment by card only which for us is a huge no no. ÂŁ125 for the final bill and a ÂŁ10 tip was on the little plate but it was refused because we only take cards oh, but we take tips in cash . Oh no you don 't. If you don 't want our cash to pay the bill, then you don 't want our cash in a tip. We usually boycott businesses that use this discriminatory method of pushing customers towards a cashless society, but because of the occasion we didn 't make a fuss, but I doubt we shall return which is a huge shame because we really did have a lovely time in a stunning setting. I felt bad not leaving a tip because the staff were lovely but this issue of card only payments needs to be mentioned in staff meetings and addressed by the company. It is discriminatory and lost them a reasonable sized tip. Customers should have a choice how they wish to pay. Cash is legal tender and not everyone has or wants to use cards. But for this one issue, the staff would have gotten their tip and this review would have been 5* instead of 4* and we would be looking forward to another booking."
