Only OK for kids 10th September 2008

0 found this helpful

We went along on a weekday at 5:30pm and there were only a couple of other people there. The restaurant was waiting for a large group booking about an hour later and there was an undertone of getting us out quickly!
The children had a margherita pizza which was fine. Spaghetti polpette (meatballs)were pleasant. The insalata nicoise I had was OK, but the tuna was not as good quality as I have had elsewhere - it looked and tasted like the fish straight out of a tin.
Service was adequate. I would not visit again with young children - I didn't find the atmosphere very family friendly.

Fan-pasta-tastic! 4th September 2008

0 found this helpful

I absolutely love Zizzi...it is definately one of my favorite Italian restaurants, whether it be for a quick bite or for a nice romantic evening.

The Pizza and Pastsa dishes are outstanding, I normally go for the Strozzapretti Pesto Rosso, which is chicken with spring onions, red pesto and creme fraiche pasta dish, so so yummy! As are the starters and desserts, calamari being my fave (which is often on the specials) to start and Tiramasu being my fave to finish with!!

The service is always great and usually pretty fast, the restaurant itself is warm and inviting and you will for sure leave with a satisfied tummy and a smile on your face!

Good chain 1st September 2008

Zizzi’s are a great chain of Italian restaurants with excellent food. I remember I started going here a few years ago when Pizza Express was going downhill, and thinking that it was much better, but Pizza Express has revamped its menu since and so I do actually prefer it to Zizzi’s now for pizzas. But for pastas and meat dishes I still think Zizzi is better, my favourite is the chicken with parma ham which is delicious. Richmond has a Strada, a Pizza Express and a Zizzi and I do find myself going to Zizzi least often of these three, but it’s still very nice.

i love Zizzi's and this restaurant does not disappoint.

The menu contains pizza, pasta, salad and a host of starters and sides.

Food is served vey quickly and always with a smile! The waiter also asked at least 3 times if the food was OK - this got a bit annoying to be honest!

Good food, reasonable prices, great service! And the toilets were spotless too

Summer Tip - pizza on the green 12th December 2007

This Zizzi is exactly the same as all the others.

During summer the Richmond Zizzi do take-away pizza specials. My advice is to order a few of these with friends and take them to the green (30 second walk away) and enjoy the great outdoors and weather (after all we must make the most of it while it lasts!). I find this adds an extra 120% enjoyment compared to eating in Zizzi.

Zizzi - Italian pizza restaurant chain 29th March 2007

Zizzi is a(nother!!) chain of Italian/Pizza restaurants in England. It feels slightly more up-market than the other similar chains, though I'm not sure I like their pizza's as much as Pizza Express. Service is generally fast and friendly, except at bill time of course.

The menu consists of mainly pizza and pasta, plus some healthier salad options. I always have pizza. My favourite is the Sofia Pizza, with Marinated chicken, pepperoni, bacon, mozzarella and tomato. My husband is partial to the Calzone, which is filled with Marinated chicken, meatballs, bolognese, mushrooms, chillies, mozzarella and tomato.

They have reasonably priced Italian wines and ok desserts if you've still got room.
