Zizzi - Manchester Corn Exchange in Manchester

Was a little disappointed with the food but the staff treated us very well, thanks alex for all your help

I ordered sweet potato fries and had to send them back as they were burnt. I understand these things happen but then the same burnt fries were returned. I challenged this and the waitress placed her hands on the top of them to check if they were hot! I then advised that I wouldn’t be eating burnt fries or fries that had been touched by the waitress hands. There was no discount offered off the bill - very disappointing.

Had to wait over 45minutes for the food to arrive. Had we been told this on arrival we would have happily gone elsewhere. We had to sit there with our coats on as the restaurant was cold. We ordered the spaghetti bolognaise and lasagne. When the food eventually arrived, we had to ask whether the spaghetti bolognaise was a kids portion as there was literally half a table spoon of look warm bolognaise sauce on top of a small amount of spaghetti. I sent it back as it defiantly was not worth the £17 price tag! My wife being very pregnant and hungry committed to eating her very dried up lasagne. The garlic bread was also over done, dried up and cold. Other tables surrounding us were also remarking on how long the wait was for food was. We were prepared to accept the hefty wait time in return for some delicious food. However that was not the case. Very disappointing experience especially with how expensive the food was. We will not be returning. We have been to Zizi’s before and enjoyed it so this was very disappointing.

Lauren was our waitress, she did a fabulous job of making sure we were good through the meal, had really really good customer service!!! Massive thanks Lauren for your top dog service 🙂

Food wasn’t great , waitresses were pretty dull

LAUREN was absolutely amazing,very polite and attentive.

Alex was amazing, brilliant food and service !

Lois was amazing, she made sure we were well looked after, she was attentive, friendly, and always smiling!

Our server Lois was fantastic today!

Alex was lovely, very friendly.

Aleksandra was a lovely waitress and kind and friendly, would deffo recommend this place and will always come back.

Had a great experience here!!! Lois was an excellent server and helped us out a lot. Thank you!

Had an amazing time with my wife yesterday, Food was amazing, service was speedy and had a lovely chat with my waitress Lois. Would come again!

My server Lauren was great, no faults at all. However, there was a lack of chicken in my main pasta dish and when my dessert was ready, 2 members of staff frequently walked past it for some time including a manager which irritated me due to the fact there was ice cream on the dish which was just melting away. It took me the customer to announce the fact that my dessert is on the side. Poor service on this part, but I'll give them another try in the near future.

Service was slow - due to understaffing! 3 of the meals were great. The other was incorrect (salmon risotto delivered instead of pasta) and salmon was over cooked. Complained and meal taken off the bill. Came away satisfied.

Had a very tasty lunch here a couple of weeks ago. The waiter provided great service, the restaurant is well decorated and I would definitely recommend the food.

Lasagne was the best I've had at Zizzi.

Big shout out to jess,our server & harry our chef, food was hot,tasty,amazing,jess was attentative and lovely xx

Aleksandra was a brilliant waitress and catered to all our needs.

We had a fantastic time celebrating my partner's birthday at Zizzi thanks to Ola, Kacey and Libby. 10/10 - would definitely recommend!

Waitresses very lovely and very well mannered

Our server Nicola was very friendly and accommodating. Food was tasty!

Nicola is fab and the food was incredible, venue is also fully accessible. Highly recommend

Our server Ola was absolutely amazing, she is the best she needs a raise and bottomless brunch <3333

Great service by Zara she is a credit to Zizis

Excellent afternoon. Tried 2 new dishes off the updated menu both delicious. We were looked after by Nicola D. Who was very friendly, cheerful and professional. We have recommended Zizzi's The Corn Exchange to our family and wide circle of friends and colleges. However I have given everyone the heads up on the 'Wagu beef & mozzarella meatballs. As tasty and satisfying this dish is its not for the weak. So if you don't like spicy choose a alternative. It was a fabulous visit totally 100% we left with full bellies and smiles on our faces.

We had an absolutely wonderful time here! Delicious food and outstanding service, thank you!

Really helpful server Lauren (823) very lovely with the kids.

We had a lovely experience here!

All the food was incredible thank you so much!

Service was lovely and always straight away . Nice and cosy . Well lit comfy spacious dining areas. Food was stunning and the New cherry drink was to DIE for !! 1st time here will definitely return :)

It was a great experience, the food was lovely nice and hot and the service that Lauren provided was Supadupa!!

We had a great experience at this restaurant mainly focused around the way Lauren looked after us. Nothing was too much trouble and the service was great. She even took our complicated order without writing it down and with remembering absolutely everything. The food, as always with Zizzi’s are really nice. I personally had the Chicken Milanese with Mac N Cheese, it’s got to be the best I’ve had and I’ve eaten a lot both in the UK and abroad. All in all, excellent experience and would recommend a visit.

Lauren was fab as always! We love coming there because of her fantastic service.

Had an amazing time, the food was very nice and amazing service my Zara. Would definitely recommend :)

Worst dining experience for years. Every course was poor. Chicken tasteless and my daughter's pizza not sufficiently cooked.

Great service and Aleks was great

Lauren T was very friendly and helpful!

Called in at Manchester Corn Exchange for a quick evening meal. Aiken looked after us so well and he is a credit to the restaurant. It was a totally enjoyable experience, being served by someone so friendly and helpful. The food was excellent too. Really recommend the Beef Stufato (if you are a meat eater).

Super service and food. Served by Aleksandra and she was lovely. Would definitely return, thanks!

Good but the toilet paper is your end so to review but otherwise that August you are good. Lots of choice

Amazing place, amazing food. Aleksandra took the best care of us 😄

Very good food, staff were super helpful when explaining which coupons I could use! Jess was super nice, easygoing and made the visit great :)

Loz delivered incredible customer service, took the time to talk to us and gave a great recommendation when I couldn’t decide on what I wanted. Thankyou would highly recommend

Loz gave great service attentive but not over the top, fab customer service, food was spot on 👍🏼

Absolutely fabulous meal. Great atmosphere and service. Loz is always so welcoming and friendly and all staff are great.

Absolutely fantastic experience every time! My fiancée and I always make sure to stop by Zizzi’s whenever we’re in Manchester. The rewards system is brilliant – they even treat you to a birthday gift on the house, which is such a nice touch! Win-win all around. Loz was incredible, really attentive and spot-on with meeting our needs. We didn’t even know about the Tesco voucher savings, but thanks to her, we saved even more. Great food, excellent service, and unbeatable value – highly recommended!

We had such a lovely time At Zizzi’s for a family member’s birthday celebration. Lauren was great with me during the whole booking process. I called to change guest numbers a few times and she was so accommodating. Thanks Lauren you were very kind. The customer service on the night was great even though were a big party of nearly 30 people. They even set up balloons and decorations on the table. The lady who attended to us was kind and attentive. Sorry I forgot her name. Thank you. We enjoyed our meals and happy that you let us stay all evening. Well deserved 5 🌟

Had such a lovely evening, great food, great service, Jess was amazing !!

The food was so yummy and the service was amazing! Thank you Jess!!

Shout out to Loz, super customer service! She was very welcoming and warm and remembered everything we ordered by heart!! She was really nice with my little one too. 5 stars 🌟

We had a lovely dinner here. The food was very hot and fresh and served quickly. Our server Loz was very attentive and understanding of my allergies would definitely revisit if we come back to Manchester.

Fabulous meal and wonderful friendly service from Lauren T. We’ll definitely be back.

Walked in just wanting sweet potato fries, got them on the house. Really kind and polite staff member. Highly recommend.

Loz was brilliant and really attentive Been a pleasure!

We were served by Loz who was super friendly from the minute we walked through the door to o the minute we left. It’s so hard to find service at such high quality that feel genuine and friendly in this day and age. The food was amazing and always served with a huge smile and great attitude. Thank you Loz for an unforgettable experience!!

Absolutely fantastic place to eat. Food, atmosphere and staff… especially Loz she was warm and very friendly. Made us feel very comfortable and relaxed. Sorry food was so delicious forgot to take pics.

Lovely food, staff go above and beyond particularly Nicola, an asset to the company. Highly recommended

Everything was amazing 🤩 A big shout out to Nicola, excellent service with kindness and patience , thank you for your help!

Amazing food and staff. Really cater well for allergies. Fantastic vegan options too. Thank you

Great Meal 🥘 , had a lovely dine in and was well looked after by an Lauren (Loz) , who didn’t hesitate in helping us in any way, taking our food order, bringing it - The lot, I would definitely return, because of the hospitality from Lauren and the well coordinated team and the lovely food we had.

Great food, nice place to eat and our waitress called Lauren was lovely.

Served by Lauren Provided with friendly and timely hospitality. Very good quality food

Excellent service from Lois this afternoon, super friendly and polite. The food was fantastic and the atmosphere of the restaurant was a busy buzz. All in all a brilliant time.

Zizzi’s always does what it says it will. Great food and our waitress, Lauren, was fab

Served by Lauren, superb service!

Food was amazing and so was the service from Jess

Loz was really kind and helpful so polite and really made an effort for my mums birthday made her feel so special

Felt very spoiled for my birthday! Food was delicious and the service was absolutely fantastic. Thanks Owais and Loz for a lovely meal!

Food good but service not great. Meals all came at different times even though it was very quiet. BEWARE OF POSITIVE REVIEWS. They give a free glass of prosecco in exchange for a good review (if you include servers name) on Google hence all very short reviews with server names on.

Lauren T was our server, lovely and very helpful!

Lauren T served us really well 😊 Service and food was lovely!

Lauren T was our server they were lovely

Very nice food! Lovely service by Lauren T!

Lauren T was very professional and attentive to our needs, would return based off the customer service x

Lauren T was very helpful. Amazing customer service.

Great food and overall great experience, highly recommended. Thank you very much to Jess for serving us and making sure we had the best time.

Jess the server was super kind and bubbly. Food was great, the Arancini balls were a favorite of ours. Would recommend and go back

I had a beautiful evening dinner with my partner thanks to a wonderful service from the young man who made our day with his amazing and kind energy! We got the primavera pizza which was vegetarian. It was a delicious pizza with so much flavour and thin crust. We also got the garlic bread which was yummy as well. The tiramisu was perfectly soft and light and even though i was stuffed it went down like nothing. Overall it was an amazing experience and I will probably recommend it to all of my friends and family hahahah! Thank you so much for the great service!

The food was amazing, as was the service. Lois was lovely, and she and the rest of the staff made sure food came quickly and that I was well looked after. I came on my own and was made instantly to feel welcomed, would definitely go again!

I fell in love with a beautiful waitress. I want to know your name ❤️

Lovely restaurant - fab food and great waiter Anton

Lovely food and quality service from Anton. Highly recommend, good vegan options also

5 of us had lunch on a Thursday lunchtime. This is a city centre restaurant where one might reasonably expect diners to be on a lunch break as we were, so perhaps staff should be mindful of the fact that diners may have a finite period of time. We had a single course and one round of drinks. There was a single chef and just 2 waiters serving the whole place. It was only 1/3 full but the delay on serving food was just astonishing. We asked where our food was after waiting 35 minutes since ordering. We were assured it was next out of the kitchen - clearly a lie to appease us. Nearly 20 minutes later I asked where our food was. The response I received (from Adam)? "The delay is not my fault", "we are short staffed", "we only have one chef", "if you have a problem, speak to head office", finally..."do you have a problem with me?" Notably, no apology but plenty of attitude and an appalling one at that. If we could have obtained food quickly elsewhere we would have walked out. I have never been spoken to by a server in such a disrespectful way. Never again will I entertain going to any Zizzi restaurant. Avoid at all costs. Just dreadful.

First time at Zizzi. Lauren was amazing really professional and quick service. Good was excellent and really tasty. Well done to the whole team.

Great spot to enjoy some food in the sun. The food was good - I had the Garlic Bomb with nduja and a side of chips, which I’d recommend for lunch, as I find the pizzas at zizzis a bit overpriced for what you get. That said, there are plenty of options on the menu to choose from

Lovely warm welcome - Good food - Great service.

My daughter and I really enjoyed our meal last night, 14th August. The food was lovely as it always is. Our server Nancy was very attentive, very friendly and super efficient. Tha company should be proud to have her working there.

Ordered some wine and a Pinoli pizza. The pizza looked nothing like the menu photo. No basil, no pine nuts, and a very small amount of carmelized onions. I should have sent it back but was hungry and ate it anyway. I did point it out to my server when I asked for the bill but she didn’t seem to care. I suggested she let the pizziola know that it was missing a few items, but again, she seemed unconcerned. I made a bad choice stopping at this restaurant as I was in a hurry. Will not try this chain again.

Very friendly and helpful staff.

The food was cold, over priced for what you receive and the staff are slow I had to get up to get someone’s attention so we could order we had been sat for 20 minutes.

I had heard good things about Zizzi's, but unfortunately......service slow, pizza was nowhere near as hot as it should have been, and we were sat inside right near the open kitchen. Food overpriced, and below average in quality avd taste. Given the vast competition in Manchester, this restaurant needs to stop relying on the Zizi brand name to attract people in..I don't imagine all Zizi's are of this standard. However, I won't recommend it, won't return. Management needs to up their game. I should have gone to Rudy's.

Friendly staff (Was served by Owais) and he was great with recommending good food options according to my taste. Food Served with care and calm atmosphere. Would come back again 😃.

Grace is amazing very attentive and good was delicious!

lovely place to eat, staff are so friendly especially nancy who served us. she was so lovely and polite. definitely reccomend

Lovely food and great service from Nancy, thank you!

Have visited this branch so many times and it never fails to impress. The food is always top quality, the customer service is always fab and the place is always accommodating and welcoming. It's our go to place whenever we are in manchester whether it be with my mum, my partner or our friends.

staff are lovely, food was amazing.

Lovely food and experience in general, the waitress Maci was so welcoming and polite, thankyou

A good experience , nice atmosphere and delicious food definitely coming back . Calzone Piccante perfectly cooked . Lois provided a good service too .
