Zizzi is a breath of fresh air in the world of eating out Italian-style in the UK. It's a relatively small chain of restaurants, mostly in and around London, but also in the north and west, and their ethos is simple Italian cooking in a fresh and vibrant setting. Look out for discount codes on the Zizzi website for pizza, pasta, and risotto.
Along with these Italian staples are chilli con carne, great meat and fish (pesce), and just the freshest salads. The Cichetti tapas range is also fantastic. The ingredients used are always the best and many of their restaurants come with a pizza masonry oven, which is open to the dining hall.
They opened their first Zizzi in Chiswick, West London, in 1999 and today have over 100 in all areas, including some in Wales and Scotland. You'll find most Zizzis in and around London, although most major cities now have them. Zizzi discount vouchers can be recouped at all eateries.
The restaurants are individually styled to the local area, as well as having the distinct feel of Italy. They are typically beautifully turned out and staff are hand-picked and trained to make the customer feel at home.
Some of the deals included with a discount voucher at Zizzi include: two courses for a set price – including pizzas, pastas, risottos or salads – or even three or five dishes. This is perfect for groups or families.
