Zizi in York

After a fun day exploring the wonderful city of York on a damp May day, it was great to be greeted by the genuine warmth and smile of the lovely man at this quaint, bustling and authentic pizzeria. The ambience of the restaurant was cosy and relaxed. The menu offered plenty of choice. We all thoroughly enjoyed what we had. I especially enjoyed the Italian brewed blonde ale from Birra Flea. Too many so-called authentic ales are brewed and bottled in the UK these days so it's especially welcome to see this extra level of authenticity. I finished off with the Rum Baba - plenty of rum and very tasty! All of the staff were genuinely attentive and a joy. We will definitely stop by on our next visit to York. Thanks to all the staff for a great dining experience.

I really only wanted a coffee when I visited at the weekend but I’ll definitely have to go back to try some of the yummy things on the menu. This is quite a small cafe but they make really good use of the space; it feels very welcoming. I’m assuming this is a small family business; staff spoke Italian to each other and worked well together.

We love Al Volo, for its unusual location, wonderful views, delicious food and friendly staff. We often visit for drinks & food whilst walking or bring friends or family for lunch. The food never disappoints and they also, as a coeliac, I am well catered for.

Quite frankly the best Italian food I've ever eaten, the staff were lovely and the food was heavenly, I would happily drive the 2 hours to York just for their food. Update - 4 Years on, the place is still amazing, the staff are incredibly friendly, they made a big fuss of my my 1yo daughter. And of course the food is still as great as it always was. Hopefully it doesn't take me another 4 years to return.

Amazing food, 10/10. Everything was exceptional!! Best place for italian food in the entirety of York. Every dish was high quality and staff were attentive. Lovely authentic feel!
