The best restaurants serving Italian food in England

When first opened there was a little teething trouble but very happy that we gave a 2nd chance. Great selection of food on the menu. Would recommend highly.

Perfect service and tasty food as always.

Food is always amazing stuff are the most nicest people

We visited this restaurant for the first time before we went to the cinema next door. We both had garlic bread, one plain and one with tomato. Mine with tomato was lovely except the middle was a bit undercooked. My partner had the chicken and chorizo paella which he said was just OK. I had the spaghetti bolognese which was tasteless and bland; really disappointing. Strangely we had to pay by bank transfer to a personal account which felt a bit dodgy to be honest. And the manager sits in a corner with his beady eye on everyone. Don't expect we will visit again.

Quite simply the best Indian street food in Bristol. Why this place isn’t heaving pre-theatre is beyond me. They have amazing desks of their own, or 50% discount on First Table. Highly recommended

Can't speak for the good but as a delivery rider I used the customer toilets and was happy to discover everyone gets their own large cubicle offering privacy. Each cubicle has a slight contemporary edge with low yield down lighting, sink, hand dryer all on automatic and with Zizzi's own brand soap! Everything such as dispensers have slanted tops except for above the loo but no sign of cocaine use so all good there! Large mirror in cubicle but full.length floor to ceiling mirror vinyl cubicle corridor do you cam get a full length pose on before returning to the dining area. :)

Me and my friend we spend a good time here Very good cocktail thank you Pedro for the recommendation

Uno de los mejores restaurantes de Londres por calidad precio. Es un Italiano pero puedes degustar unas carnes exccelentes. Tiene unas instalaciones perfectas. Acogedor y con atencion discreta y eficiente. Un lugar extremadamente recomendable!!

Lovely food and excellent service from kaloyan

Zizzi's was fairly quiet when we visited at 7:30pm. There were a couple of lively birthday parties at the other end of the restaurant, but we were seated well away from them, which was a relief! The first minor shock were the menu prices - my calibration point used to be Pizza Express, where a "classic" pizza was between GBP10 and GBP13, whereas Zizzi only offer 3 types of "classic" pizza, and prices start at GBP13 going upwards. Pasta main courses are all GBP17 to GBP19, which genuinely did make me do a double-take. I appreciate costs for hospitality businesses have increased, but that's quite steep for a modestly-sized bowl of pasta and a minimalist portion of sauce. If I'm honest, it seems a depressing part of the "Farnhamization" of prices in the town, kick-started by Megan's charging £18 for a kebab, which seemed to start a kind of "arms race" in the town's restaurants. £18 is the new normal. It reminded me of the old "How To Be Middle Class" TV sketch - "Avocado on toast? One pound fifty? You're looking at eight pounds fifty, at least!". I had the slow-cooked beef and chiant ragu "pasta superiore", which arrived looking nothing like the picture on the menu - it was 95% pasta with a hint of sauce (although what sauce there was was delicious) and rather less generously piled-up than the photo. Yours for only GBP18.25, sir. My wife had a salmon and avocado salad (GBP17.25) which was better; decent chunk of salmon and a nicely-balanced avocado salad. The service was laughably poor; and I genuinely mean that. We ended up laughing privately at the Chuckle Brothers type mayhem! A young lady with a serious face arrived with our main courses and attempted to serve them to the people on the next table who were busy eating dessert - easy mistake to make, I know. She then approached our table and asked "Beef ragu?", so I said "Yes" - and she gave it to my wife, presenting me with my wife's salmon salad. I said (politely), "It's the other way round, actually" and the girl just walked away, still wearing the serious face. We decided to skip dessert and have coffees, whereupon the same thing happened. Despite us indicating who had ordered which type of coffee, serious-faced girl plonked each down in front of the wrong person and said "Enjoy" before turning her back and walking away. My wife whispered, "She does NOT want to be here!". We started musing over whether we should answer the wrong way round to the next dish and see if she put them in the right places! But we'd had enough, and asked for the bill. When we went to settle the bill, we asked if we could use a Zizzi gift card, to which the waitress (a different one to the backwards-dishes-serving girl) said, "How much is on it?". We replied that we didn't know, as it had been a gift to us, and could she check? No she couldn't, she said, and pointed us to a website address on the gift card, which we had to access before we could use it to pay part of the bill. Fishing out my phone, typing in the website address and then the 17-digit number from the card, the site responded "Success!" with a green tick, but didn't tell us the value on the card. Eventually the manager came over and said that he could check the card balance at the till, and that there are "two kinds of card - she thought it was the other kind". So that's that cleared up, then! Final laugh - there was a card with a QR code along with the bill, asking "How did we do? Scan the QR code to leave a Google review.". When I did that, a website asked me to log in to my Google account, then went straight to "404. That's an error. We don't know any more than that.". I tried again, this time logging into my Google account before trying the QR code - but it was 404sville again. So that was all a bit of an expensive comedy show. Add in a constantly-beeping fire alarm or security alarm in the foyer behind us, and it wasn't exactly the 'dining ambience' one would expect to go with one's £18+ bowl of pasta and £17+ salad.

Great atmosphere, delicious food and amazing service

Had an excellent evening with good food with my daughter and teenage grandchildren (Who can eat a lot).

Pasta was lukewarm warm at best. Chocolate fudge cake was a chocolate sponge cake. So expensive for what you’re getting. Toilets dirty! The place really needs some tlc!

Departure Nero - Location is quite open, not very clean, noisy but you could say it’s airport location so excusable. Service was tired, ordered luxury hot chocolate - was very sweet - so asked if they can give me milk to dilute - answer - yes you need to pay for it. I asked for a refund and her name - she stated telling / showing me the milk I have used is plant based milk so can’t be reheated etc… huh??? Terrible experience.

Surprisingly good food. Great service. A little noisy but otherwise nice.
