"Edit one year on. Sat eve, 8pm. Nearly empty restaurant. Last year gave 4 stars....this year struggled to give 2. So what was different? Staff: mostly ok. .just ok. If you are not ready to order then expect a long wait as they forget to return...both for ordering drinks and food. Had to locate someone. Not offered parmesan. Had to ask for pepper as well and waitress said i will try to find some then hunted round the other tables until she located one. Then- there seemed to be a volunteer working there- baggy grey t shirt and old jeans hanging halfway down his bottom.......but omg! Was he actually the manager? Complaints/comments not responded to except see below in food review. Food- just average. The cheese dip starter was just a cheese sauce- no better than I put on my homemade lasagne. Pasta with meatballs- husband struggled to find 3 meatballs. Crab canneloni- tasteless, pappy...ate only one. Courgette fritti...no courgette.....i did mention this and was told it 's hard to find ....so i picked up several random pieces of fried batter and none had courgette in . No feedback from kitchen or manager. On paying when asked if all ok i mentioned it again and they said oh that 's a shame. That was it!! Two good things- beer glass was chilled and the organic wine (i dont usually do organic) was super. Won 't be returning in a hurry. Food is great here. Service friendly. Doesn 't matter what they do to this space it never quite works.....noisy and unwelcoming- hard to hear eachother speak. Certainly not a cosy, couples type place. Prezzo across the road has nice booths but terrible food and service."

Poor service by the waiter. Regular at this zizzis but sadly let down by poor service. Food was substandard as we. Much improvement required

Great location and looks great inside. Had a spot of lunch here and a lot of choice. Very friendly staff and served quickly and food was very good quality.

Very good food, tried their summer special starter which was lovely. It was a bit noisy in there when we arrived but quietened down by the time we left. Overall very lovely evening.

This restaurant is the ideal spot for a peaceful dining experience. If you're in search of affordable prices, delicious food, and a delightful atmosphere, this is the place for you. The staff is attentive and friendly, and the food is outstanding, with a wide variety of vegetarian and vegan options available. Don't miss out on the desserts—they're fantastic as well!

It gets even more surprising. When I asked the manager why there was so little meat, he told me that's how it comes; the food is served like that. I couldn’t believe it when he said that it comes pre-packaged! I was left speechless. Had I really spent £14 on a ready meal? To make matters worse, the taste was off as well, and the amount of meat was just unacceptable. Additionally, my order was wrong initially, so I ended up waiting for my meal while everyone else at the table was eating. I had visited Zizzi six years ago and wasn't impressed then, but I thought I’d give it another chance. Unfortunately, I was let down once again. Overall, I would recommend saving your money and opting for a...
