Had an amazing experience at Zizzi with my friends! From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional. A special thanks to Ingus (GM) for making us feel so welcome and ensuring everything was perfect throughout our visit. The food was absolutely delicious. We enjoyed a variety of dishes including pizza, pasta, and other mains, and every item was freshly prepared and full of flavor. A huge compliment to Rahul, the chef, for delivering such fantastic food and attention to detail. The highlight of the meal for me was the Tiramisu—it was one of the best I’ve had, perfectly balanced, creamy, and incredibly satisfying. Great atmosphere, outstanding hospitality, and excellent food. Thank you, Ingus and Rahul, for making our visit memorable. We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend Zizzi to anyone looking for a wonderful dining experience! 🍕🍝🍰😊

Great servers, excellent view of the Thames. Would be perfect if air conditioning worked. The temperature was 30 and the pizza oven was open. Shout out to Billy!

We had a lovely birthday dinner at Zizzi Riverside and thoroughly enjoyed our evening. Our waiter, Ignus, was exceptionally friendly, attentive, and accommodating to all of our requests. He took the time to explain the specials, made sure we had everything we needed, and checked in on us throughout the meal without being intrusive. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. As part of Zizzi’s birthday offer, we received a complimentary main meal, which was a nice added touch and helped make the celebration feel extra special. What really stood out, however, was the excellent service from Ignus. His friendly manner, professionalism, and attention to detail made our evening even more enjoyable. We left feeling well looked after and would happily return. Highly recommended!
