Zizzi - St Andrews in Fife

Argo was amazing food was perfection

Our waitress Eva was very helpful, very professional and very friendly.

Fantastic food, tasty, really nice, pizza in particular was fresh with this base, staff were very friendly and happy !

Very disappointed. Dishes were all wrong We were ordered no discount .Food was very dry.tastless.service was poor.i certainly won't be back

Eva was the perfect waitress! Lovely food. Thanks

Eva was awesome. Delighted with her service and hospitality.

The food was delicious as always. Atmosphere great. Beautiful decor. Justyna the Chef outstanding.

The food was OK but I won't say it worth because it is just average Italian food, and there are many Italian restaurants with better food. You can tell this by how empty the restaurant is all the time. The service is extremely bad, the waiters are rude and disrespectful.

The spaghetti chorizo carbonara is so great

Jess was very attentive and helpful in our ordering

Food is alright, exchange voucher which can't use the second time. They really make it hard for costumer. Compulsory service fee again. Annoying

Great food, great service, and great restaurant.

Me and my friend ordered 3 dishes 1 salmon salad, 1 prawn starter and 1 king prawn linguine. The food tastes good but is overpriced and the service was slow

I recently had a disappointing experience at Zizi. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by a rude host who seemed uninterested in seating my party on a Sunday. The appetizers took forever to arrive, and when they finally did, they looked like they had been tampered with. The wait for our entrees was excessively long, and our server did not check on us once. To make matters worse, guests who arrived after us were served before us, seeming as we were being purposely ignored. The wait staff were consistently rude throughout our visit. Overall, it was a very unpleasant dining experience, and I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Great place! I loved the service and the atmosphere! Oh and the food was just marvelous (lots of vegan options) 😋😁

Food was cooked to perfection and served with incredible presentation. Most importantly, service was impeccable, quick and friendly. Would highly recommend for any visit to St Andrews.

Top notch service, great food and a good atmosphere. Love coming to Zizzi. Compliments to the chef 🙏🏻

Birthday night out for a meal and the experience couldn't have been better. Greets with a smile, and the smiles continued throughout with our server Chinenye. Food was excellent, drinks delicious. We had the Wild Garlic & pesto bombe as start but the star of the show was the King Prawn Picante. Would recommend 👍

Fantastic meal and service. Good value for money and very filling - we will be back soon 🙃

Fully enjoyed our meal. Sat outside and watched the people go by. Good food, decent selection of beers and wines.

Really lovely atmosphere. We ordered some vegetarian pasta (ve lentil ragu) and 1 rainbow lasagne. Highly recommended and so authentic! Absolutely delicious. Served by ogechi who was super sweet :)

I have been there twice in the previous week and it was great. The pastas (prosciutto carbonara) and pizza (rustica wagyu) are very tasty, also great starters (spiedidi).

We booked table for 5 and had to wait for table but great evening and lovely service Thanks Ogechi for wonderful evening Wel recommended Cant wait to return

Very kind staff that ensures great customer care! The pasta was a bit too bland, but other than that there wasn’t anything to comparing about :))

Great customer service, friendly attentive staff no rush. Food was excellent- pizza and pasta. Great value and as good as any high end italian restaurant. Would return.

Great meal. We were able to sit outside and people watch.

We booked a table for 10 people and Zizzi did not disappoint. We were told our Tesco vouchers could only be used for a table of 6 but because we had 4 kids they allowed. The food was incredible, everyone loved their food, I had wagyu meatballs and they were so good. The cheesecake was incredible and I thoroughly enjoyed my wine. The servers were so attentive, I thought they were brilliant with the children and adults. Would highly recommend this place.

Amazing food Great place Excellent service

It took long time but the food is also not good

It is supposed to close at 10pm, arrived at 9pm and was told the kitchen was closing down for the night and that they had some big tables early on in the evening. Huh? Do better Zizzis!

I’ve had some mixed Zizzi experiences in the past but this one was fabulous. Food was unreal. Excellent pizzas and calamari. . Would certainly go back. Highly recommend!

Few minutes ago I have been there Food was ok but time to pay bill not.Why worker ( black skin man) not ask me about tap just charge alone 7.90£ It is not fair.

Have to confess we went because we had Tesco vouchers, but what a fab meal! Delicious, best Zizzi meal we’ve had, our server was so lovely (geology student, sorry we didn’t get your name!), enjoyed every bite.

Turned Down from having a table because it was fully booked which wasn’t the case when I arrived. There was hardly anyone. Even waited for 40 minutes yet nobody arrived and I wasn’t allowed to sit.

We enjoyed our time there. The only problem was the greeter seemed to not want to be at work that day. However, everyone else was pleasant and the food was amazing.

First time trying a different Italian in St Andrews. It’s late for lunch so restaurant is not busy. Pasta was nice, real Al dente! Seems to be a good place for family with young kids as place is spacious and bright. There is also outdoor seating.

Absolutely ridiculous attitude from servers. There were 5 of us in our party, arrived and asked to be seated to be told "we're busy, there's 29 people in the restaurant. If there were 4 of you, we could have seated you". Working in a restaurant myself covering easily between 30-200 in an hour (depending on if a wedding was on or not) saying that a restaurant with only 29 people and 6/7 empty tables (probably more) is absolutely ridiculous and laughable. Won't be back and time soon

Ogechi was polite, attentive, friendly and welcoming. Everything was nice apart from the ladies toilets which was the only let down because the toilets were not clean.

Nice place with friendly staff even although i only had a coffee.

Our Oge was an absolute dream. Made us feel so welcome and definitely knew her stuff. Was great at giving us recommendations and had good customer service. Thank you so much Ole

Lovely family dinner - staff were very accommodating of both buggy and dog in the group. Thanks for a lovely meal!

I’ve never been to a Zizzi before and this was an amazing dining experience. The staff were amazing, friendly, helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Instead of waiting for me to tell them I have a dairy allergy, the server asked us as he was seating us. The menu has a bigger selection of vegan options than other Italian restaurants I’ve been to. The rainbow lasagna was delicious and the vegan cake was hands down the best vegan cake I’ve ever eaten in a restaurant. I cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough and I would give them 5 stars all round. I was so impressed I sent a message to head office telling them how brilliant this dining experience was.

The man serving us was extremely rude!!

Never tried before, but definitely will go back to Zizzi, nice stylish atmosphere, good selection of food. I chose the Wagyu Meatball Arrabbiata today and it was lovely. Highly recommend this place.

Lovely time at zizis St Andrews and had the best waiter Abdul! Very attentive and helped with gluten free options! Very happy :)

Great place to stop for a quick lunch staff were great and the fish under your feet was a lovely touch

We stumbled upon the recently renovated Zizzi on reopening day. Bless them, they were having a few issues with workmen and the kitchen. My first choice meal was not available. We waited a fair time but not excessively. We were practically the only diners. The meals were excellent and the staff were so attentive. They didn’t charge us anything by way of an apology. We would have been happy to pay. I cannot fault the staff. Highly recommended.

Fantastic service from Ogi. She was a proper OG. Incredible speed of service and attentiveness

This is currently closed for refurbishment until 22 May 2024. The food is always lovely and service is always good.

Amazing staff, delicious food, so good. ...only downside is I don't like Veronica...a bit more lager option might be nice

Food was lovely and priced fair pizza was really nice

This place has the best food and service the food was amazing! Thank you

Tasty food, great service! Thanks a lot

We had a lovely meal at Zizzi St Andrews to celebrate our Wedding Anniversary. Food was excellent and staff very personable and attentive. In particular Mateusz was very helpful and very attentive to ensure our Anniversary meal was enjoyed. Excellent meal and service. Would certainly return.

The food was fine, but our experience was really tarnished by the chef’s treatment of the service staff. The open kitchen meant we heard everything - the waitress (who was lovely, very attentive) got screamed at for clearing our table without simultaneously carrying out food for other tables... It was really unfortunate to see how they treat the service staff here. It definitely affected our experience and I don’t think we'd come here again after hearing how the chefs speak to the waitresses.

Delicious food with great service.

Great selection of food, and brilliant discounts. Desserts are amazing!

Vast menu, so plenty of options. Food was well-prepared, tasty and came in reasonable time. Large portions of main dishes. I found the linguine sauce so slippy it made it tricky to eat with fork-only - I wasn't offered or brought a spoon to eat it with. Staff friendly and efficient, but not many on at lunchtime.

Good pizzas but overpriced, my pizza was small but waiter gave us another free pizza 😁😁, lack of windows means it's a bit dull inside

Significantly better than the chain restaurants we have back in the United States. I will have to go to more of these in the future. Italian food is always a delight, being so rich and indulgently creamy. Here, I ordered a mushroom dish that was only a starter but was so filling that I couldn't order anything else. The soft bread soaked with cheese and a viscous mushroom sauce revitalise my spirit on a cold and dreary Scottish day. This place did feel a little more anonymous and indistinctive compared to the cosy and rustic restaurants and cafes where I have spent so much time in this country, places where the history and the culture of the establishment feel so warmly exuberant and idiosyncratic. But such a lack is to be expected from a chain restaurant, and again, this one is better than most chain restaurants, with richly sumptuous food and a bit of artistic flair. I recommend it, especially if you have a large party, as there is an abundance of space.

Wasn’t sure about booking with a chain restaurant but took a chance and we came out very happy. Manager was like a wee buzz bomb, serving, making sure everyone was being attended to; generally making sure everything was running smoothly. Food excellent. My wife had lasagne which looked a bit small but she was filled up by the time she had eaten it. I had a rustic pizza which was also very good. Desserts, delicious. Choc melt: the waiter apologised because the melt had kind of collapsed under the weight of ice cream. I’m more into taste than appearance and this just hit the spot. Overall a very good restaurant, good food, efficient management.

Grand place good food and company.

Saturday lunch and the place is dead but I'm not surprised with the prices. Lasagne being £16. I had a very bland pizza and chips. My partner enjoyed the expensive lasagne. I asked for sauce which they then charged £1 on the bill. 🫣 Seriously. When you make your pizzas so tasteless you should at least hand out free sauce 🤣 wonder how much salt was. Glad I never asked for it.

I would like to thank the manager for being so helpful with a voucher we had via Red Letter Day that was proving difficult to locate the code on. He took so much time to sort it out for us and that was before we had actually ordered anything. All staff were very helpful, food was good and an enjoyable experience.

Lovely service from every member of staff who we interacted with. Delicious food as ever

First, they got the simplest order wrong. Second, the manager said the pizza was "fresh out the oven." No, it wasn't. More like three hours out the oven. Stale, bland, cold pizza. Scandalously overpriced. I could have got the same thing at Domino's for less. I'll give it another go, the decor and seating looked nice, and maybe they're better as an eat-in place, but surprisingly bad.

Lovely mocktail and pizza definitely be back!

Service so slow despite there being very few people in the restaurant. Waitresses very pleasant and apologised for the delay. Food was poor the place is in need of a freshen up , upholstery on seating stained and torn and overall lacking in atmosphere. Previous experience of this franchise was positive but certainly won’t visit St Andrews again .

Nice place,amazing food,good staff

I have been here quite a few times over the years the food is amazing the staff are efficient and I have never had any problems with food or service

The vegan options are always amazing and I would honestly buy a whole bag of those dried pasta snacks that they serve you at the very start. Abdul was lovely please give him a pay raise :)

Zizzis was excellent there deal on a Saturday of 3 courses for £24 was great value and really good food.I highly recommend and will definitely eat there again

Great food. A bit more pricey imo.

Just plain, tasteless average and tired food. A shame, looks stuck about five years ago. Service impeccable

Fantastic service. Lovely food. The waitress made my day by asking for my ID when we ordered our delicious cocktails. 58 years young........

A group of 18 of us went to Dinner and the service was great. The Menu is limited but fine and my risotto was lovely. Very noisy in there but makes for a great ambience.

Amongst the Italian chains, one of the better experiences. Food was enjoyed by all, good portions, drink options good. Relatively expensive dishes by comparison of some venues, so for a chain - it can add up quickly. Staff were friendly and attentive. I tend to tip well - however do not appreciate in any venue, auto adding a service charge which is the case here, then missed this when paying the bill for others to tip more at the table. Any restaurant auto adding this is marks down for me and would tend to avoid.

Food very good, we enjoyed massive garlic bread starters and creamy chicken pasta mains. It was busy but service was good and very friendly. Major down side with this place is the acoustics, it’s very noisy and you can hear conversations from right across the room while not being able to hear people at your own table!

Had to send food back. Couldn't cut the chicken and calamari was rubbery. Signs of frozen food zapped in a microwave. Pity.

We come here all the time because my lovely wife is lactose intolerant, but she very much enjoys a Zizzi vegan pizza. I like pasta dishes, so it's all good 👍

It's ok. The service is ok. The food is ok. Everything was ok. Not much to report really, it was all average.

Several times we have been here. The staff today were nice. The vegan pizza delicious and my husband enjoyed his margarita. I’m glad I had the pizza as I saw the lasagna and was disappointed as it was such a small portion. Not cheap so don’t insult us by small portions. Or do they think they’re being smart and you have to order sides. 🙄 It was so cold I was shivering. The food went cool very quickly because of this. Will not be back.

Enjoyable 100% staff 100% its a must go to place

Called in on the spur of the moment, and glad we did. The gentleman who tool our order and looked after us was so lovely. Nothing was too much trouble for him. The food was lovely and as always our eyes were too big for our bellys. Highly recommend this place x

Zizzi in St Andrews provided a delightful lunch experience. The pleasant weather allowed us to enjoy our meal outdoors, where we were warmly greeted by Vikki, the general manager. Vikki's exceptional service and recommendations led us to try the Rustica pizzas, which had a thin crispy base and were truly outstanding. The dessert selection, including tiramisu, cherry amaretto cheesecake, and a chocolate sundae, was equally impressive. I definitely recommend Zizzi St Andrews for its great food and exceptional service!

I booked a table 5 days before I was meant to go and informed them that I have severe allergy, heard nothing back from them, I always phone 2 hours before to reiterate. I Was told by restaurant and head office customer service because I had an allergy (out with the 14 common ones) that I "make an informed choice" what was in the food! as their “ingredients are ever changing with suppliers due to complex supply chains” OR I could ask in advance what was in the meals, but was never informed of this EVEN though I told them days before. I have eaten here many times in the past and always been accommodating, not sure why this would change now.

First time here, seated quickly, orders were taken quickly too. Good selection for kids and activities to keep them busy. Food was delicious. Only minor point was that there wasn't much room between tables and we had to squeeze into our chairs.

Had a booking on a Sunday night, which they apparently didn’t have it on their books even though we had the email confirmation. We got a table and tried ordering on our phones to make it easier to split the bill however the previous persons bill was still showing because the servers had not closed it. One of the servers then said they closed it but it was still not working so we got another server over who said she had to “open” the table, so then we could order online (why did the first waitress not do that?). Food was good, hot and tasty. The service was very poor, they weren’t attentive and you can tell they didn’t want to be there.

Good food, reasonable price. Busy.

We had a sit down meal midweek and arrived around half 3. When we arrived we were told we could be seated but it would be nearer 4 before we could order food. We then had another waitress came to our table and took our order and we had our food within 10 minutes of ordering. Staff pleasant, very quiet place. Food was lovely.

Exquisite food. Delightful staff. Very poor acoustics inside so insisted to eat outdoors - luckily weather permitted - where it wasn't noisy.

We had a fantastic meal, service was brilliant, food came quickly and piping hot. But more importantly was seriously impressed with their attentiveness to allergies. I am coeliac and was given am ipad to click on what I couldnt eat then the specific menu came up. No searching for the tiny gf sign or having to ask what can I have. Was so easy and a pleasure. I feel so confident eating there which I'd important for a coeliac sufferer. Thank you for this.

Really lovely meal. I am a Big ravioli fan and this ravioli stuffed with goats cheese and spinach was best ever! Lemon cheesecake and cherry cheesecake also delicious ! All waitresses serving us were very friendly, efficient, super service. Will def come back- for that ravioli!😁👍

Bouteille de vin servie déjà ouverte, pas sûr du contenu évidemment, malgré la remarque, la bouteille n a pas été changée. 1 bouteille payée à plus de 30€, ça sent l arnaque.

We were a table of 7, that arrived for dinner. Lovely atmosphere in the restaurant which was overshadowed by staff being unbothered or stressed. Food arrived undercooked + freezing. When asking for condiments (enough for the table) we were given one tiny tub. We then asked again to be given the same. Then again… This made us feel very awkward and bothersome considering we were only asking for a condiment each. The staff member rolled their eyes at us and never brought any back. By this point we were irritated, due to having children asking for the sauce that we went and got it ourselves by the kitchen. There had been a spillage by our table upon our arrival and asked if this can be mopped due to a family member having a terminal illness which causes muscle weakness - would be very easy for her to trip and seriously injury herself. Again, the same member of staff said “I’ll deal with that in a bit” but never came back. I’m actually perplexed at how awful the service was. Working in retail + having worked in hospitality, I know how customers can be and also ensure to give to benefit of the doubt as I’ve been there. But there was no excuse for this. Only positive of the night was one of the lovely managers, (I didn’t catch her name!) was so helpful when it came to ordering for a few gluten free family members and ensured they were carefully shown their options. Other than that, I don’t believe any of us will be back at the St Andrews branch.

When we arrived, we stood about awkwardly while staff walked past us. We had a booking and we weren’t sure where to go to check in. Eventually someone came and got us and then we wandered about the restaurant behind her because they had no idea where to put us. The waiting staff was clueless, bringing the wrong drinks and asking my friend what kind of base she wanted her pepperoni pizza on…she ordered a gluten free vegetarian pizza. Pointing out the mistakes got us some snide looks and eye rolls from the waiting staff, as though we were the ones in the wrong. Getting things wrong is one thing, being rude to customers about it is something else entirely. When we finally got seated, the seats are awful. Just hard wood with no cushion or padding. The restaurant is noisy and chaotic and felt like a school cafeteria. They got one of the pasta dishes wrong multiple times, which was worrying because it was an allergy dish. Issues again when it came to the bill, they had no clue how to sort out the clubcard vouchers and no amount of US explaining to THEM got us anywhere until we had to speak to the manager. Honestly there are so many lovely places to eat in St Andrews, and atmosphere and service is just as important as the food, I wouldn’t waste your time. So, so stressful. Totally ruined our day out. Two stars instead of one for the others at the table who enjoyed their food once it came.

Good pizza, good crust. Very nice staff.

Great food and service my second time here, many to come.

Average overpriced food. Garlic bread was burnt and didn't have either garlic or cheese. Salad portions are small relative to their size but it wasn't rubbish. Food was late by 10 mins when I ordered takeout with an initial wait time of 10 mins.
