my self and my Fianc'ee come here once a month for date night and every time, we receive great service & amazing food. recently we booked on 14th Oct. We were running slightly late (called up to let the restaurant know) no trouble at all. Ritesh was serving us, he knows our order of drinks and remembers my Fianc'ee is gluten free (amazing service) we made a slight mistake on one of the main meals, i called Ritesh over and without any issue, he took the main meal away and we had a new meal within 10/15 minutes.. given that i had stopped eating mine until my partner had received her new meal, my food was still hot.. that says a lot. the Chefs are outstanding and cant fault them, they cook with a smile and their passion for what they do, shows in their food. were never rushed to have the bill and we enjoy the service we receive It's lovely seeing others enjoying this restaurant (families, old and young couples, also people in groups) we will be back after the next pay day but will have to be our last until around March April time as we are paying off our wedding on 03/05/25. p.s we will be booking date night the day before we go on our honeymoon 04/05/25 thanks again see you soon

I just want to start by saying that all these negative reviews are all B/S. My self & my fianc'ee come here once a month (for the past year) Every time we do, we see couples & families enjoying their food & drinks. never witnessed a complaint, food gone back or rude staff. my self & my Fianc'ee order starters, mains and a desert whilst enjoying two refreshing soft drinks. The restaurant has a classic/rustic style to it, the staff including management are warm and welcoming, polite & service always with a smile. Kitchen: the food cooked by the chefs is delicious, bursting with flavour, amazing presentation. also, with it being an open view kitchen, you can see most of what's happening behind the line and I can't fault the chefs. a mention to Ritesh, 1, he goes out of his way for every guest, 2, always polite and attentive, 3, very alert and ATD with allergies, 4, a credit to your company. We will be back next month after my 36th (next month) To all at Zizzi's in Staines, FOH & BOH, you're all amazing, see you soon.

My starter arrived after my grandson had received his. I called the manager over and informed him this is not the starter I ordered. I order the new garlic bombe oozing with mozzarella. The description was a giant dough ball. What I received was a flatbread with a sprinkling of mozzarella. He then proceeded to argue with me that it was a dough ball! Even my 5 year old Grandson knows the difference between a dough ball and a flatbread! At the end of my meal the manager then said he had telephoned the head chef to come in and teach the chef working today the proper spec. It is concerning that the manager was not aware of the spec of the food he was serving. It has been a year since my Grandson and I visited this restaurant. Won’t be going back. They also may want to change the oil as the restaurant did not smell too well. Should have turned around and walked out then. I visit other zizzi restaurants and have never received such poor service and a manager that argues with a customer

We were staying in a local hotel and we chose Zizzi because it was in walking distance. We wished we hadn’t bothered. We had booked and we were quickly shown to a not very good table. We asked to change but we’re told all the other tables were booked. We had to ask to order drinks and then asked again for our food order to be taken. The waiter made it very obvious that he didn’t want to be there. My mushroom starter was all bread with a hunt the mushroom game. I have to say my winter salad was excellent. My husband had calamari to start with followed by pixxa which was very thin on toppings. We went elsewhere the second night.

Arancini were excellent as was the soul bread as a nibble but the wrong dips were brought with it, which even when I pointed this out, no apology or even understanding - the garlic aioli was garlic butter, the truffle mayo wasn’t truffle, tasted more like tartar sauce and the beetroot houmous was entirely lacking in flavour. Plus the dips were presented in tiny metal bowls, such a small amount they looked stingy, not appetising. I would still have paid service charge because I do think its a tough job, but the person who took my card payment didn't give me the option! Definitely not going back

Took 45 mins for our order to be taken. We asked for 2 glasses of tap water as well as our cocktails. Had to ask 3 times for the water but it never came. The quality of the food was really poor, not tasty at all, very bland and stodgy pasta. Very disappointed.

Turned up last night (without booking). Stood in the doorway for 10mins without any staff member acknowledging me. Had to interrupt a young man with glasses to ask if we sit ourselves anywhere ?? (There were more than 5 empty tables) He snapped that we need to wait to be seated. Same man spoke to us a few minutes after asking if we had a reservation. I replied we didn’t. He then explained they were fully booked. I asked why we needed that response after standing there waiting for 10mins without any acknowledgment?? He response was “we do you want me to do, we are all busy!?” Zero customer service skills obviously. No employee should ever speak to a customer like that.

Stopped here after a hot day at thorpe park. Was staying close so suited family meal before we all parted ways. Service from a young lad was nice. Food was nice although chefs, you need to drain the water from the pasta more and reduce the cream in the pan longer as this was too watery. My choice was the Harrissa chicken pasta tasty towards the end but lacked seasoning which I just asked for salt and pepper and as above reduce the liquid! Pasta cooked perfectly Pizza was nice, just food timings are little off as we received everything bar one dish which was another 5 minutes. Pull in timings. As we recieved the first 4 and 2 sides very quickly you had time to pull together. We visited on a Saturday night and thought it would be busy but wasn't, however we liked our choice of table by the open doors as the restaurant was rather warm too. We eyed up the desserts on another table at the beginning and decided to try. Lovely however, the borage flowers, these were dry should have been left off. You put approx 20 dried small flowers that couldn't be avoided ontop, and with every mouthful I had to pull flowers out my mouth. This isn't pleasant. Cherry compote and the gelato were beautiful just ruined by this detail. Which zizzi could just stop and enjoy a better profit margin. Water glasses smudged and one unusable, small details matter!

Visited for a weekday pre-cinema lunch with my son. We’d booked in case it was busy as it was the Easter holidays. It wasn’t, but I would imagine you would need to if going in the evening or for a weekend lunch, especially as it is only a few minutes’ walk from the cinema. This was our first time visiting this branch. We’ve eaten at Zizzi branches all over the place over the years and they have generally been good but never outstanding, but this was definitely the best yet. Extremely prompt and efficient service from the friendly staff, in a spacious, clean and comfortable restaurant. Admittedly it wasn’t that busy with only a few other tables occupied, so there would have been no excuse for poor service, but even so, it was genuinely good throughout. We just had a pizza each and a salad to share. The pizzas were hot, tasty and perfectly cooked, all fluffy having just come out of the pizza oven - just right! It was nice to see the staff genuinely enjoying chatting together in gaps in serving - nothing worse than seeing stressed staff under pressure! It’s a large restaurant with a little step up to one level but another level flat to the ground from the entrance, and that level also leads straight to the toilets which I think also included one for people with disabilities, so it’s all pretty accessible from what I could see, but phone them to check if you have specific requirements. We will certainly be back to this branch in the near future!

I highly recommend the Wild Boar meatballs! They have the essential chilli oil to add more spice To the spicy pizza!

Zizzi is just another "Italian" chain and while the food is OK, it is nothing above average. I would expect something better for the money, and quite honestly, if you are after an authentic Italian cuisine, go to a Trattoria, preferably family-owned, where the kitchen staff is actually Italian. They certainly are NOT Italian in this place.

Had the Spiedini Manzo which was beef on a skewer with tomatoes served with chips and lettuce. Beef was tasty but very chewy. Tomatoes were definitely off and told the waitress this only to be ignored. Chips were nicely flavoured and the lettuce had a nice dressing on it.

I don't know what made me venture to this place for the second time but I did much to my regret. What awful awful food. The arancini we had to start was tasteless even with the red pepper tapenade. The crab cannelloni I had as my main meal was probably one of the worst meals I have ever had - the sauce was perfectly edible but the cannelloni had been heated for too long and was tough and crab?? What crab?? Filling could have been absolutely anything. This is the problem with the restaurant chains - fast food at an exorbitant cost. So this second visit will definitely be the last - should have learned my lesson the first time. Stay away - there are several much nicer independents in Staines.

After a near perfect meal and service last year we were disappointed with the frosty service and desserts. I ordered a chocolate torte that was supposed to be served with a scoop of ice cream. Instead I was served a very dry looking torte accompanied by even drier looking pieces of honeycomb balls. They did allow me to change the order but insisted my desert was as described. On paying the bill we were kept waiting for such a long time for the card machine to be brought to the table that I went to where the waitresses were standing to pay. No apologies - they just took the payment. Generally the service was not friendly bordering on frosty. To make matters worse our Taste card wouldn't work and we would have had to pay full price had it not been for a 20% discount voucher

A late Mother’s Day treat ruined by bad food; we visited here after taking our mums to Windsor Castle. We were a party of 6, 4 adults and 2 children. Our mums both ordered the Crab Cannelloni but were extremely disappointed. Although marketed as Al Forno (from the oven) the dish served seemed to be microwaved. The pasta rolls were inedible, very dry and tough nothing like pasta should be. I’m a frequent visitor to Italy and know how pasta should look and taste. Both dishes were returned uneaten. Neither the starters or mains arrived together at the table for the whole group so we had no choice but to start before food started to go cold, something as a family we find as bad mannered. One mum had a bad night with stomach ache and the other felt sick...we can not of course attribute this directly to the little food they consumed.

My partner is lactose intolerant and we have found Zizzi to have the most extensive and delicious dairy free food out of all the chain restaurants. This means we visit a lot around the UK.

Decided to try Zizzi for a night out with friends. Firstly, I was so impressed with a totally separate menu with a large choice of vegan options.... which is usually a problem in most other restaurants. The food was fresh, well cooked and tasted delicious. And secondly, the service from the staff was fantastic, very attentive, good knowledge of food and wines available. Will definately eat out in a Zizzi restaurant again.

Went here with my son on Monday, very friendly service and very quick service even though they were busy. The pizza was very tasty and the spaghetti was great. Use taste card and paid for the pizza only.

Visiting Staines we loved the friendly atmosphere of this restaurant and the delicious fresh food. We had vegetarian pizza and risotto which were so tasty. The service was wonderful; thanks so much for a fun meal.

Nandos was packed and they couldnt seat us for 30 minutes with a further wait for food on top - popped into Zizzi for something quick and Peter was great, got to the cinema to see the film in time

I decided to have lunch at Zizzi, as it is our preferred pizza restaurant. The welcome and service was warm and attentive and I was delighted to see the introduction of a skinny option, as I love their pizza but am watching my calories, so I opted for the skinny version which comes with a large side salad. The portion size was about a third, but with the salad was just as filling and I got to enjoy my guilty pleasure without blowing my daily calorie allowance! Special mention goes to Roberta who was extremely helpful and friendly. Zizzi will remain our choice when we want to eat Italian

Hi there. Went for my son’s birthday today and what a disappointment. First of all my meal was watery and secondly we were kept waiting over 40 mins for dessert and in the end we just left without having dessert. I could see the restaurant was short staffed hence my dish was obviously rushed.

We visited at around 17:30 on a Tuesday and booked as we have not been here before and didn't know how busy it could get, but the place was pretty quiet so didn't need to. The welcome was warm and friendly and the food up to the usual good standard you expect from a Zizzi's. Service was good and waitress friendly and attentive, food came in a timely fashion. We would definately go again as the calzone is particularly good.

I was meeting my brother to visit the cinema and we went for a quick bite in Zizzi. Of all the chain restaurants, Zizzi is consistently the best. The staff were really lovely and helpful, looking like they really enjoyed their job. The restaurant itself looks clean and it is clear the manager takes pride in the business. And the food was very good. We both had pizzas and a beer each that came with a cold, frosted class which is a nice touch. Great.

Had a really disappointing meal/time at Zizi’s. Meal was sadly lacking in flavour and staff really looked like they didn’t want to be there! It took ages between courses to get table cleared and menus to choose desserts. It wasn’t particularly busy and there were a lot of staff but we landed up feeling neglected in a practically empty restaurant!

I went into zizis with a bit of a negative mind after last few meals out I’ve had being in various other restaurant where not too great. But after the amazing food which tasted unbelievable I was blown away. To then be topped off on arrival and throughout our meal our waiter Peter was the nicest and very knowledgable guy I’ve ever met that had been my waiter. Peter made our stay at zizi’s very pleasant and instantly made me want to come back to be treated so very well. If only all customer service was to this excellence. Can’t wait to go back. Food 10/10 customer service from Peter 10/10!! Amazing

Had a lovely meal here, the food is great and there is a good selection on the menu, the staff are really friendly and make the experience even better, the layout and decor of this restaurant is also nice as they haven't rammed the place full of table and chairs so you really feel you have a table to yourselves unlike other Italian restaurants close bye.

Visited with family, menu was varied. I had pasta del la casa, which was excellent. Wife and son had pizzas which they both said were excellent. Service was friendly and fast. Bit pricey on the drinks but overall couldn’t fault the experience. We normally use the Italian in Old Windsor ( Punto) but the food was better at Zizzi!

Good value with a 2 for 1 meerkat voucher......£50 for 4 people. Service is efficient and friendly. Try their peanut butter and chocolate fondant for desert......delicious. A very spacious and clean restaurant.

Me and my partner came here for an early valentines day meal and it was an absolutely terrific night out! The staff were lovely and helpful, the food fantastic (a pity we couldn't finish it but we'd already had popcorn at the cinema!) and the management extremely helpful when our experience voucher codes didn't work! Next time we're looking for a meal out in Staines we'll be sure to come and visit Zizzi again! I have literally nothing to fault them on, only high praise for the team both front of house and in the kitchen!

Apparently being the only one eating doesn't suit there business model. Was offered a seat but before I could order the floor manager came over to say that they are apparently booked and I have to leave, didn't see anyone waiting though. Felt really awkward having to be unseated anyways probably avoiding this place from now onwards
