Our starters (crab balls) were still frozen when served. Worrying that this could be sent out and makes you question the quality control of the other ingredients. This meant one of us had to eat our starters alone. Waiter was very young and lacked any sort of interaction. Annoyingly our vouchers were not valid as this time of year. Appreciate that this is stated on the website but we got our vouchers some time ago so a simple sign when walking in reminding us of this would have been very helpful.

We had a fantastic experience at Zizzi during today’s vegan meet-up! Our group gathered for a lovely evening of delicious Italian food, and Zizzi didn’t disappoint. We thoroughly enjoyed the garlic bread, Pasta Pomodoro, and the exciting new addition to the vegan menu — aubergine meatball pizza — all of which were absolutely delightful and unanimously approved by our group. The true highlight of the evening, however, was the outstanding service from our server, Janos. He was warm, professional, and incredibly funny, making us feel truly welcome. His lovely manner made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Thank you, Zizzi and Janos, for a wonderful evening — we’ll definitely be back!

I recently visited this restaurant and was initially impressed by the attentive front-of-house staff, who were more than happy to let us sit wherever we requested. We arrived right when the restaurant opened, and it was already spotless and tidy, which made for a welcoming first impression. The music was at a comfortable volume, adding to a pleasant atmosphere, and I appreciated that the tables weren’t cramped together, giving the space a roomy feel. Unfortunately, the food didn’t live up to the service or the environment. We had a couple of mains— Vegan Margherita Rustic Pizza and Lentil Linguine—as well as Raspberry Cheesecake, Sweet Potato Fries, and a Raspberry Mint Cooler drink. The vegan options were particularly disappointing, with little flavor. If it weren't for the voucher I had, I definitely wouldn't have chosen to dine here. At nearly £50 for the meal, I felt it was overpriced for the quality of the food. That said, our server Ola, who handled the bill at the end, was friendly. But overall, I can’t recommend this place based on the food quality. There are better options out there unless you have a discount or voucher. I also witnessed an unfortunate situation during my visit where the front-of-house staff denied a regular man, who seemed to be a desperate tourist, the use of the restroom. While I understand that there are policies in place, it was a tough moment to witness. A simple act of kindness in such circumstances could have made a big difference. It’s little gestures like that which can really enhance the customer experience, and sadly, this one felt a bit cold. It's always important to remember that empathy goes a long way.

Muy decepcionado tomé a un amigo como amado el de Birstall Leeds y no tuve una buena experiencia. Algunos de los empleados no parecían molestos excepto la señora que era buena. El lugar era muy frío. Los aseos de señoras eran horribles no limpiaron ningún rollo de inodoro, ya que estaba todo en el suelo en todos los aseos y cuando les dije que sí dijeron que lo sentían, pero no lo suficientemente bueno. Espero que si vuelvo a Birstall Leeds que será tan bueno como siempre ha sido.

We went to an Italian place to have a quick dinner because we were late getting into the pubs. We ordered some ravioli and a chicken and spinach calzone. It was delicious but nothing more, nothing remarkable compared to other Italian restaurants. The beer seemed very expensive to me, even though it is 660ml it is still a bottled Peroni.

Ordered a margarita pizza and asked for a good amount of fresh, uncooked spinach on it. It was just perfect! Best pizza I've had for years: lovely thin base pizza, unfussy, and so delicious. Our other pizza was the peperoni champagne. This was also perfect: it was not overloaded with ingredients, therefore not greasy. Oh so good. To drink we had a passion sparkler and I asked for less ice. It was perfectly served and tasted great. The flat white coffee was just right. All in all, this dining experience was a delight because of the great food and drinks and the wonderful staff. Thanks again to Ola who served us.

Bullies is all I can start with - My wife and her family visited your restaurant for a meal, and regrettably, their experience was far from satisfactory. They were seated after a 20-minute wait, despite the restaurant not being particularly busy at that time. Unfortunately, the service they received from your staff was not only subpar, but one staff member was notably rude. After placing their order for a starter and some wine, they found the food to be unsatisfactory and uneatable. When they sought to settle the bill, your staff allegedly claimed it was “against the law” to order only a starter with wine. I am perplexed by this assertion and would appreciate clarification on the legality of such a claim. I am deeply concerned about the treatment my wife and her family received. As they are Brazilian, I find it particularly troubling that they would be subjected to what could be perceived as bullying or intimidation in your establishment. My wife and I are regular patrons of Ask Italian in Worthing, as we hold your restaurant in high regard. However, this experience has left us reconsidering our loyalty.

The pizzas were cold and we had to reheat in the microwave so I am very disappointed. We usually order from Pizza Hut or Papa John's with no issues. This was made worse by the cost of the pizzas, which did not match up to the poor quality.
