Customer Review Summary
Pizza draws the most praise, with one diner likening it to a genuine Neapolitan and a group of five finding the truffle and chicken pizzas enough to share. Pasta follows close behind, including a chorizo carbonara and several pastas one table called delicious, and a few mention pasta crisps and bread to start. Reviewers describe food arriving quickly, servers who are attentive without being intrusive, and a lively atmosphere where some seats look onto the chefs working. The main caveat is cost: one table found some pasta portions small and the menu a bit pricey, while another calls the three course offer large and reasonably priced. That same table also had four of six cards declined at payment. Families mention a fun kids' dessert, and one birthday dessert arrived with a candle and a song. Several close their meal on the small complimentary cups of hot chocolate brought at the end.

“Popped in unplanned and so glad we did. Food was absolutely delicious. We had the 3 course offer and unlike other restaurants there was still a good choice and the portions were still large. Really reasonably priced and definitely worth the price. We were looked after by Kora who was brilliant. So attentive... but not annoying. Nothing was too much trouble and so friendly and always smiling. We will definitely come back.”

“Zizzi has really amazing food. We had different pastas and they were all delicious! Some portions were quite small for the price, though. The cocktails were all equally tasty and the desserts were huge and tasted just perfect. Their menu is very versatile and all their options are really creative, but also a bit pricey. We did have a small problem with payment though, where four out of six cards were declined. But that was not too big of an issue!”

“An exceptional dining experience at Zizzi Stratford-upon-Avon. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable — warm, attentive and effortlessly professional without ever feeling intrusive. A particularly charming touch was the little cups of chocolate milk at the end of our meal, a simple but thoughtful detail that added a sense of fun and hospitality to the experience. The food certainly lived up to expectations. The pasta was beautifully prepared, with excellent texture and flavour, while the pizza was the real standout — crisp, well-balanced and wonderfully satisfying. It came remarkably close to the experience of enjoying a genuine Neapolitan pizza. What impressed us most was the consistency from beginning to end: thoughtful service, quality ingredients and food that was clearly prepared with care. A thoroughly enjoyable meal and one of the better dining experiences we’ve had in Stratford-upon-Avon. Highly recommended, and out of all the Zizzi we had, this Zizzi is the best one!”

“Very nice meal again at Zizzi. Pizzas were served really quickly so no long wait. Food tasted fresh and it was good where we sat as we could see the chefs working. Our server, Ash, was polite and it was a bit if a treat having some bread to try, the pasta crisps... and mini hot chocolate at the end of our meal. The atmosphere is lively with lots if chat, music and the decor suits the setting and mood.”
