What OpenTable Diner likes about Zizzi - York:
Zizzi on Lendal in York is typical of the chain and well located for the city centre and theatre. Portions are generous, the food is hot to the table and in some places you can see it being prepared. Service is friendly and the local graduate artwork is interesting. The Italian bread board starter is plenty for two to share and the delicious carne piccante calzone barely fitted on the plate! View all feedback. What stuartg doesn't like about Zizzi - York:
The temperature in the restaurant was freezing. We had to ask for the air con to be turned off. To be fair they did oblige but we couldn't believe they actually left it running on a cold night in December. Staff friendly and the meal was fine because we got 2 for 1. However at full price I would not go back. This is the third time we've used Meerkat there without any issues. On that basis I recommend if you have it. View all feedback.

Really nice and friendly staff and several vegan options. it is however a chain restaurant and most dishes are not vegan friendly.

Zizzi never disappoints and tastes even better with a 30% voucher code. As creatures of habit when it comes to Zizzi we had the vegan margherita with extra mush...

Zizzi is a popular choice for Italian comfort food at a moderate price point. However, recent reviews reveal inconsistencies in service quality and food preparation. Some guests experienced long wait times, inedible dishes, and unfulfilled promises. On the other hand, positive experiences highlighted friendly service, delicious food, and accommodating staff. Overall, Zizzi seems to have its ups and downs, making it a bit of a gamble when dining there.
