Zizzi - Derby Intu in Derby

Great lunch out. Large choice, but not overwhelming. Service was quick and attentive. The food was most importantly - tasty!

Brought my nephew in for a treat on 17/2/25. A treat he had to wait 45 minutes after they decided our garlic bread was a starter when we didn't even ask for it as a starter? And to top it all off my favourite meal i thought I'd get in Derby ziziis with the prawns on a skewer... Gave me food poisoning. It's almost 21/2/25 and I'm still recovering! Never had food poisoning this bad before! Let's just say I will be keeping myself and my family away from this ziziis!! Never again!!

We had a lovely evening. Isla was an excellent server very friendly and helpful. The food was wonderful thank you.

Isla was a lovely waitress, attended to our every need and want! We had a lovely meal! Highly reccomend

Zoe the manager was amazing!!! Our daughter spilled a glass of water and the team immediately moved us to another table. Lovely food, amazing staff. Thank you!!!

Had a lovely evening here. Jevvy was a lovey staff member, was very welcoming and helped us with our food. Will be back here again

Went for dinner yesterday and food was lovely and the cocktails were amazing. Sarah was attentive and looked after us!

My son’s pizza he absolutely loved. The chicken starter was great but mushrooms disappointing hence 4 stars not 5. Isla was lovely and very helpful.

Ilsa served us she was funny and welcoming great service She gave me a colouring sheet service 10/10

The food and drink was great, Isla was awesome , we will be back soon. 😀

Lovely food, amazing af drink and fantastic service from Jerry!

Really great visit to Zizzi restaurant today. We hadn't booked, but the lovely lady (Zoe), said she could get us in in 30 min, that was fine with us, and actually ended up being only 20 min. She then explained clearly how I could access the gluten free menu and there were a good selection of choices. We all ended up choosing pizza in the end with Zoe again being brilliant and noting my extra intolerance to mushroom that isn't a standard for kitchen. Two pizzas arrived in good time with an explanation that mine would be a bit delayed as she has asked the kitchen to make it again as the cheese had burnt, which was nice and the pizza ended up being delightful. Overall it was a great meal and Zoe went above and beyond to make sure we had a good time.

Booked table for 3 at 20:00. Waited twenty minutes to be seated, just to be told that there is no available table. Ruined our night. Cannot say anything about the food, as we didn‘t even have a chance to taste it. Worst part was that all other places were already closed or not accepting food orders.

Been here before and never had an issue with the food/ service. Taking into account of it being Valentine’s Day we booked a table for 8:30 and had to wait an extra 15 minutes to be seated, Ordered the Wagyu arrabbiata which was accepted. 5 minutes before our food came out a server told me they had just ran out of wagyu so would normal meatballs be okay, I didn’t have a menu so blindly accepted, the replacements were just balls of nothing. There was no taste just texture of peppers inside to the point we questioned if they were veggie ones. Upon asking for the bill I informed the server that they really weren’t the best especially charged at the same price as wagyu and she apologised and told me they ran out of them at 5pm… if this was the case why was my order accepted and I not be informed sooner. Very poor from zizzi’s this time.

Stopped at Zizzi for lunch on my own . Been seated very quick and service was amazing especially from Radka. Definitely will return 🫶

We had a lovely meal at Zizzi in Derby. Had two amazing Lemon Drizzle Martinis, and an amazing truffle pizza The service from Isla was brilliant - absolutely stunning girl!

Wonderful service from Isla, super friendly and very efficient. Delicious food and chilled vibe. Would highly recommend!

Food took over 45 mins to arrive, which was just difficult having a hungry toddler- but also no prior warning. I had to ask where our mains were and it was only then I was informed about kitchen staff being short. Service was good generally, perhaps could have cleared tables quicker and been a bit more available but clearly just need more staff. Staff were friendly and helpful when asked. Although we never got our water haha . Great vegan options (the special was delicious )and good value for money on the lunch deal, just a shame about the long wait, but I appreciate they were understaffed.

Food was great, service was quick and our server amy was incredible, 10/10 experience

Great meal and great service. Amy was absolutely amazing and a star as well as an asset to the company.

Lovely food and great service from Lacey

Food was great, excellent Customer service from Lacey.

The food was delicious and the portions decent. I would recommend the ravioli.

lacey was lovely and pleasant and very helpful. would definitely come again.

Nice service and interior. The food itself is average and a little bit over priced for what you get. Pizza definitely need more cheese on it, because you can see empty spaces… also if you add extra toppings you get very very little of it… :)

Everything was very good, very good service

Lovely food again as always. Isla was amazing waitress and was so friendly, helpful. We really enjoyed our visit, we had the set menu.

Wonderful evening meal out, servers were all so lovely. Especially Lacey with our 2 year old toddler 😊

Lovely service!! Our server isla was very helpful and friendly

Lacey was a brilliant host as were the rest of the team. Me and my little girl arrived early but they accommodated us and gave us our favourite booth. Nothing was too much trouble and we had a lovely visit.

waited an age for the bill. maybe we could have walked out without paying? maybe you could walk out without paying! worth a try

Great customer service by Lacey .. polite friendly and helpful with a smile

Jerry was amazing and extremely helpful

Jerry was amazing out of this world and a wonderful host. Couldn’t recommend enough

Food was leng and LACY was so nice and made sure that we had a wonderful experience !

Zoe was brilliant in getting my order sorted without any fuss. The device was great!

Excellent wonderful food, service and environment. Thoroughly enjoyed our meal and drinks there. Will be back.

Lovely and friendly staff also somewhat deaf awareness. The food was so delicious!

Intu derby brilliant food lovely atmosphere and wonderful service Lacey was fantastic very organised and made shure we had everything we needed thank you very much x

Amazing food and atmosphere l! Syanne was brilliant - could not do enough for us. Thank you and will definitely be returning! 5 stars!

Decent food, friendly service but fairly slow

I don't tend to leave reviews unless exceptionally good or in this case exceptionally bad. I can honestly say this was one of the worst meals iv ever had and other diners felt the same. The pizza was absolutely shocking. Covered in semolina/polenta. Under cooked and was like a flatbread. So thin but not In a good way. Toppings were mediocre. Sauce acidic and crust dreadful. Service was slow and poor. No check backs to see of the food was ok. My son refused to eat the pizza as it tasted bad. Drinks were warm. Iv visited zizis a few times over the years and pizza was always fairly good. But after this visit I will never go back. And also just for clarity, we are all italian with Italian parents and we love pizza. Awful awful awful!

Excellent family meal at the Intu Derby, with fantastic service by Lacey

Great service by Lacey. Some dessert items on menu not available. Had a lovely evening and some nice food

First time here with my daughter. Food was lovely, staff very friendly especially Lacey who checked everything was ok for us. She was very polite and helpful in sorting out my voucher. Will defiantly return.

6 stars for service 1 star for food

Never seen anyone refuse to sit a paying customer

Great restaurant, went out of the way for a last minute walk up, worked around accessibility requests and very thorough about allergies. Very lovely food which was good value on the set menu. Thank you

Lacey was brilliant and understanding even when things went wrong - 10/10

Lovely Xmas eve family experience x

Great service from Lacey today!

We arrived during a very busy 23 December and we were offered a table with only 30minutes wait. Everyone, without exception, were so friendly, warm and welcoming, particularly Beth. And the food was delicious with generous portion too. Thank you so very much indeed!!!

Jerry's service was sublime and you quality. All waitresses should follow this example.

Here’s a glowing review you can use for Jerry at Zizzi: I had the absolute pleasure of being served by Jerry during my recent visit to Zizzi, and she made the experience truly unforgettable! Jerry was warm, attentive, and professional, going above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. She took the time to recommend dishes and even checked in to make sure we were happy with our choices. Her friendly personality and genuine passion for excellent service really stood out. Jerry is a credit to Zizzi, and I can’t wait to return for another meal, knowing it will be in such capable hands. Highly recommend asking for her when you visit! Let me know if you’d like to tweak it further!

We had a large family gathering and was greeted by Jonna she was amazing and was always on hand through out the amazing experience. Fantastic food fantastic price fantastic experience, whatever your paying Jonna it's not enough, truly an asset to your company

Lovely food and the service from Lacey was fab. A lovely member of staff

Excellent food, five star service and great friendliness and customer interaction Zoe is amazing, so friendly and warm and represents your business as you’d hope a team member would 😁

Lovely atmosphere and staff - they’re all very helpful and kind - would recommend to anyone in Derby to come out and try the delicious food

I recently visited for a Christmas meal and a 60th birthday celebration. The place is lovely, with a great atmosphere, and the staff, specially Beth (I think it was her) were incredibly helpful and friendly. The food came out quickly, and the Christmas menu was delicious. Overall, it was a very nice experience. The only downside was that it was a bit chilly, but it didn’t take away from the enjoyment.

Fabulous meal from the festive menu. The staff were all lovely and friendly, especially Lacey. Very personable when taking and delivering our order.

Brilliant time at Zizzis and food was delicious. I was recommended to have the ravioli and it was just gorgeous .

Great food and lacey was lovely!

Not has good as other Zizzi restaurant we have visited. Never had bruscetta served on a bread roll before that was even hard to cut through. The main courses were disappointing. The veg rubbery and covered in oil. The lasagne was far from the best my wife had tasted

Fantastic service as always, absolutely love Zizzi derby, best staff ever! Lacey was fantastic today 😀

Popped into Derbion for some Christmas shopping and decided to have a quick bite to eat at Zizzi. I haven't been for a long time but we were very pleasantly surprised. The food was bang on and our waitress, Jo, could not do enough for us. Really attentive, quick and smiley service.

Zoe was fabulous today she is just so efficient and friendly

Amazing service, will come again

Wonderful meal with friends at Derby. LACEY was so helpful.and friendly.

Great food , fast and friendly service.

The staff were great with children especially Beth. Food was lovely, the restaurant was a little cold but we were moved closer to the kitchen. My children loved watching the pizzas being made and were given chefs hats to decorate a great touch by Beth. We will see you in January 🩷

Really didn't enjoy dining here. The service wasn't great, the food, although tasted fine was extremely small. To pay £18 for a main dish, you expect it to be of a decent size so a chicken breast cut in half and a few new potatoes on the bottom just doesn't cut it. The mocktails tasted of only soda water. Would never go here again.

We arrived and the first thing i noticed was the piles and piles of dirty glasses on the bar. The lady who served us was exasperated and asked us to wait while she cleared a table. Once seated she took our drinks order and while this was being done we ordered our food with another waitress. All fish was off the menu including the Christmas specials due to the fryer being broken. It was freezing in there with most people sat in their coats. The drinks took forever to come and when she eventually arrived she only had 1. She told my husband she had ran out of ingredients for his and he needed to order something else, why this couldn't have been done whilst making mine i don't know. Everything else he picked was out of stock too so he eventually had a gin and tonic. The food arrived and the chicken squewer was a very sad looking thing. Anemic chicken and a big piece of lemon. My husband touched the chicken and it was totally cold. I had the aranchini balls which were also cold but against my better judgement and because I was starving I ate them (I learn to regret this decision). The waitress came over and took the chicken back to the kitchen to "run it through the oven again." I watched the chicken sit on the side for 5 minutes before the waitress picked it up and took it in the back. Another 5 minutes passes and she comes back out to do other jobs without the chicken. At this point I was concerned about him eating reheated sat about chicken and suggested we call it a day. My husband spoke to the front of house lady and offered to pay for the drinks. She declined and said just to leave it. She looked very much like this was a regular occurrence. This is a large restaurant with only 2 waitresses and a front of house with 2 people in the kitchen. They clearly cannot cope. It was absolutely freezing and out of stock of most things. We went away the following day and my entire holiday was spent with chronic food poisoning and the only thing I had eaten was those aranchini balls!! My holiday was ruined and a serious lesson learnt! Avoid!!!

Thanks to Jerry for the great service today during a busy lunchtime! Will definitely be returning!

Amazing service and food as usual

Lacey was a brilliant waitress from start to finish. She made our dining experience a joy. Lovely friendly manner. Will definitely be back.

We arrived and sat down at table and the waitress asked if we would like a drink . We ordered our drinks . But then waited for 25 minutes before they arrived and then asked if we would like to order our food. The starter arrived very quickly within 10 minutes and was piping hot. I had calamari, and my wife had bruschetta. They both were very tasty. We then received our mains. i had a beautiful bowl of Crispy Prosciutto Carbonara that tasted amazing. My wife Deb's had Lobster Mafaldine with King Prawn Spiedini and really enjoyed it. We finished off with honeycomb cheesecake and tiramisu. That was very nice. The staff were very good, and they lost a star on the review because of the time it took to get the drinks and food order in. But the food was excellent, so it saved the meal. I would definitely recommend Zizzi's to eat.

The food was sublime and the staff were extremely pleasant (Beff, Jerry, Orshi) and very accommodating. The food was extremely palatable. I will definitely be returning. The food is very reasonably priced.

Lovely Service, Great Food, lovely atmosphere, I would highly recommend.

Lovely venue with a lovely team of people working here. Thoroughly recommend

Lovely food and brilliant service - Jerry was lovely and very attentive 😊

food is delicious. service in general is not nice. you have to wait ages for food and it’s not hot when it arrived on our table. I have to get my drink at the bar because it was there for long and no one is serving it. it’s not even weekend or busy.

Well done to Lacey! Superb treatment and care. Thank you.

Great food and excellent service from the friendly staff from our waitress Lacey.

Fabulous food, lovely atmosphere, and Beth, Radka and Lacey were SO friendly and welcoming - a great experience!

Received a pizza via delivery and the pizza was not cut into slices. Shocking service! If I could attach the photo of the pizza I would

Great food and excellent and friendly service

Dan was lovely - had a great time!

Went to Zizzi Intu Derby for a night out / time out. 15.11.2024. Lacy served us. She was so pleasant, cheerful, gave advice about items on the menu. We could see her working hard with other customers, maintaining her kind and patient disposition. Lovely food, great menu choices. Hoping to be back soon😀Thank you. Attended a few weeks ago and Zoe looked after us. She’s so lovely, positive, bubbly, knowledgeable and really cheered us up after a rough day. Again the food was A - Mazing 🤩🤩🤩 Godwilling we’ll be back soon. THANK YOU AGAIN😊

Amazing food and service by Jerry, who tended to all our needs perfectly. Would go back again, I especially recommend the brownie sundae.

Started off good, but went slightly downhill due to wait times , long wait on drinks food came in good time and tasted good , but it was very cold had to wear my jumper and needed a jacket that I didn’t have, and unfortunately that’s enough to make me not want to return
