Zizzi - Oxford in Oxford

The atmosphere was lovely and our waitress Hema was very dedicated!

The waiter was very rude, he treated us as an unacceptable way!!

Served by Ben who was really accommodating and friendly. Food was really good and came out in a decent amount of time.

Ben our server was amazing thank you

A great place (almost like my home now) and an excellent service by Ben (who is indeed as cute as a devil). Would highly recommend if you wanna brighten your day 🫶

Ben was great yesterday , recommended us and guided us through ordering,we ordered the wrong desert and he tried to fixed it for us and make it right for us and gave us tips where to go and explore Oxford,great customer service

Hema was an exceptional server! She was very professional, personable and insightful. It was great to speak to her a little about life in Trinidad and Tobago, as I am Canadian my husband is from New Zealand, which was lovely to also share with Hema. I would highly recommend Hema as a waitress for her outstanding service!

Hema was so lovely if definitely go back just to be served by her, she was attentive, friendly amd gave great recommendations 5 star service!

Had such a lovely experience going for a meal today! Our waitress Hema was absolutely lovely and made us feel so seen too. She was attentive and gave us recommendations of food which we thoroughly enjoyed!! Would absolutely love to go back and be served by her again :)

From start to finish, our experience at Zizzi Oxford was outstanding. Despite the restaurant being very busy, the service remained top-notch throughout. Hema in particular was incredibly helpful and attentive—she made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. She took the time to recommend some of the favourites on the menu and kept us well informed throughout our visit. Her warm and professional approach really stood out and added to the enjoyment of our meal.

Didn’t have the food available that we wanted. But food we defaulted to was still good. Our server, Ben, was excellent.

Delicious food and lovely service from Sanjay! Would definitely recommend!

Suave was absolutely amazing! He looked after us extremely well! Thank you for the lovely food recommendation; we'll definitely be back.

Great food and service, Suave was very attentive, well recommended

Lovely experience, Ben was very efficient, friendly and jolly. Great food as well.

We came in an hour before we were due to head to the opera and they were so accommodating in getting our food to us promptly. All the wait staff, but especially Erica, were attentive and friendly. Delicious food. Thank you.

The spaghetti pomodoro were very good. Nice environment.

Lovely meal! Ben our server was attentive and looked after us well. Would recommend

Hema was amazingly helpful and recommended the sticky pig which is one of the best pizzas I've had in a long time! I efinitely will order it again, and she was so friendly and a pleasure to chat to. Very fast service and delicious food. Thank you Hema! X

Hema was both friendly and welcoming, she definitely helped make it a great dining experience

The service from Hema was fantastic, she is a credit to your establishment. The food was as fantastic as the service. Thank you.

Served by a nice lady named Hema. Tried some tasty meatballs. Fast and friendly service

Hema was a great server and the food was great!

Had Hema as our server — fantastic service and very friendly!

Hema’s service was very nice on the night of Tuesday 1st of April the other lady working her shift that night wasn’t very friendly but Hema was great.

Hema was an excellent help. I asked if she would recommend the sale and gave a good description and friendly service throughout our visit. Would come back thanks to her

Georgina was very helpful and had a lovely manner.

Very delicious but small portions. Kind of expensive i would say. Also the toilets were dirty with bad smell while there were just few people in the restaurant.

Great customer service from Georgina :))

Excellent meal, a very nice New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc and fantastic service from Ben. A perfect way to celebrate our engagement.

Hema, did our table service and provided a lovely experience and really made us feel at home. Would recommend 100% (:

Hema provided absolutely perfect service ! So lovely and happy, really made me n my partner laugh. So down to earth but so caring about your experience as well! I was told this was only her 5th shift in Zizzis which is so impressive considering her confidence and personality ! I wish you all the best Hema it was lovely having you as our server 🥰

Excellent service from Benjamin so friendly, made us feel welcome was very chatty and interested without being too much.

Hema was the best host ever! The food was great, I had a spicy pizza and loved it.

when you put my order in it said 30 mins delivery that was fine 10 mins later I looked at my phone delivery time had changed to 50 min then it actually turned up 45 mins after that so I don't no what was going on there

Hema was so amazing. The food was mediocre but hema made it impeccable - give hema a raise now.

The food was fantastic and our waiter, Ben, was brilliant and very funny!

We had wonderful family celebration for 11 people. Our waiter Benjamin was great from start to finish and very helpful and friendly. Would recommend ❤️

Hema served us amazingly and the food was great

Benjamin was absolutely FAB-U-LOUS, super approachable, funny and friendly. Had a really nice lunch - food 10/10 as always. Will be coming back soon!!

Max was amazing! He was very polite and made sure we had a lovely meal, thank you!!

Enjoyable evening with good food and company, and our waiter Ben was amazing

Slay! the food was very tasty and for a pretty good price

Ben was an absolute DIVA in the best way, incredible service from him!! Give that man a raise because he was absolutely sensational, put up with a lot as one of us was very tipsy but had great recommendations for museums and tourtisty things :)

Camarera nos dejó de pie en la puerta (nos había mirado varias veces, pero nos estaba ignorando a propósito) ... entramos en el restaurante y pedimos sentarnos, entonces nos rechazó a pesar de que habíamos reservado una mesa en línea porque dijo que estaba por su cuenta y demasiado ocupado... el restaurante estaba prácticamente vacío (seis mesas con personas como máximo) … . Más confuso aún, puedes pagar y ordenar usando un código QR, por lo que la declaración de demasiado ocupado no era válida en mi opinión, ya que todo lo que tenía que hacer era llevar la comida a la mesa. Muy decepcionante

Lovely experience with both Benjamin and Selena managing the place on their own and doing a great job. We had very bespoke dietary requirements which they were able to meet perfectly. Thank you. 5 ⭐️ review.

A lovely meal made memorable by our lovely waiter Ben

Necesitas una buena imaginación para traducir lo que fue un tazón de masa con papas y salsa, en - ‘NewBeef Brisket & Venison Stufato Un guiso de carne de res y venado cocinado lentamente. Elaborado con vino Chianti, cebollas y patatas. Todo enclavado en nuestro tazón de masa con scamorza crujiente y salvia’. No fue tan bueno como parecía.

Can’t remember how many times I’ve come to Zizzi’s. Amazing food and great service! Shout out to the fabulous Ben again for being such a friendly and professional staff!!

Served by Ben who was friendly and provided excellent advice and service, thank you 👍

Habíamos reservado y estábamos encantados sentados antes de nuestra hora de llegada. Desafortunadamente todo comenzó a salir mal, tomó unos buenos 20 minutos más allá de nuestro tiempo de reserva original para tener nuestro pedido tomado, luego más de una hora después de que nuestra comida llegó y luego solo 4 de nuestras 5 comidas. En ese momento nos dijeron que no podían hacer una de las cosas que habíamos pedido y nos presentaron un menú para reordenar, en ese momento solo nos quedaban 5 minutos para comer antes de que fuéramos al teatro, así que terminamos compartiendo la comida que conseguimos entre nosotros. El restaurante estaba muy poco personal, por lo que pudimos ver 2 camareros y una sola persona en la cocina - uno pensaría que con un restaurante ocupado con lo que eran claramente asistentes al teatro todos con una hora de finalización similar en mente alguien habría tomado la decisión de dejar de dar un paseo - ins y sin duda dejar de tomar órdenes de entrega!

I came here tonight for dinner with my mum and daughter the place was packed with only two people on floor to do it all! However both team members a man (manager I think) and a lovely lady (big gold hoops) were nothing short of fantastic, nothing was a problem for them and although you could see how stressful it must have been they done everything with grace and massive smile! not forgetting the chefs who were smashing out the food all night but even more impressive was the quality of the food still, piping hot and delicious! I never normally leave reviews but I couldn’t not tonight! Thank you so much to the amazing staff for another enjoyable meal, I really hope the staff are proud of themselves as they should be and are a massive asset to zizi working in hospitality myself I was beyond impressed with how they handled the situation if I could give more than a 5* I would

I didn't receive any order, how is it possible for them to show me that I received the food?

Good place to eat close to the New Theatre in Oxford. Great food and nice atmosphere. Our waitress, Georgina was very helpful, friendly and attentive.

Fantastic food, friendly service. Federica was great!

Tasty food served promptly (which was handy I had to get to the theater and little time); the best thing was the warm and friendly service from waitress Georgia.

Lovely meal! Georgina was amazing! So friendly and welcoming looked after us very well.

Georgina was brilliant, so attentive and friendly!

Update 1 Mar 2025: there is good service and there is amazing service. Georgina was so friendly, thoughtful and professional that I have had to give her a special shout out. She genuinely enjoys working in Zizzi Oxford and it makes my dining experience extraordinary! Ben is an extremely friendly waiter. He goes the extra mile to make sure I liked his service. With his charming smile, handsome looks. What else could make the experience better? Food and drink business is always tough. Especially more so for F&B business in Oxford. Which is why I treasure Ben our waiter so much. He is such a kind soul and went out of the way to make our meetup lunch a pleasant one. I love the way he jokes with customers. And how he splendidly dishes out the plates and speaks to us in the most cordial way. We need more service staff like Ben. Please send our regards to this handsome cordial lad!

We walked in at 11:30am - waited by the door for a moment. No staff member in sight so we made our way to a table by the window. The waitress then very rudely exclaimed to us to not sit where we want and to wait by the door next time. She wouldn’t let us sit at the table we wanted. There was only one other person in the whole restaurant. We got up and left straight away because of this persons attitude.

Food was very cold when arrived so had to reheat which was a shame as pizza was good.

Nice food and reasonably priced

Cozy environment, the service was good Mediterranean care and warmth and the food was exquisite!!

Ben was amazing! Really made us feel at home
