Zizzi - Durham

Amazing fondue board and chicken and prawn skewers! We shared it all between the two of us, and ordered a green bean side as well. I had a couple of cocktails as well - a raspberry mojito 👩‍🍳😘 and a Rum Forest Rum, both very nice! The server was great, very friendly and helpful.

We both had lasagne, my OH had the vegan option. He said it is the best lasagne he's ever had. Mine was really tasty too.

Neither of us drinks alcohol so we asked for lemonade. Sadly it was sprite zero - any zero drink is horrible and we'd rather have been told when we ordered, but hey ho, few people know of the toxic chems in such drinks.

The side of fries was really small, so next time we'd need one each rather than sharing.

The woman that served us was friendly and polite.

Oh and the pasta fries - GENIUS!!!

We would definitely come back again.

The multitude of Saddler Street restaurants makes the choice difficult. Nostalgia for Sicily was the deciding factor. It's worth being seduced by memories.
The Grande Antipasti starter was OK, we could watch the dough bubble in the oven. The first two randomly selected mains menu items, Chicken Calabrese and Herb-Rolled Pork Belly, were excellent. But all this pales in comparison to the Chocolate Brownie Sundae, a quadruple chocolate poetry of flavors.
If you are looking for a place where you can eat great food, look for Zizzi.
P.S. The wine is also up to standard and everything is available at a reasonable price.

1st time eating at Zizzi, mocktails, pizza , fries and dessert for lunch with the daughter, food and drinks were delicious, staff were very friendly, will definitely return.

Just had. Lovely lunch here. Really tasty food.. Finished with a Limoncello which if I'm honest was disappointing.
Should have been served in a frosted glass with the contents having been kept at freezing point.
Apart from that I would recommend a visit.

Amazing meal with great service. Could not fault it. Thank you

The food was lovely and the staff were very friendly and accommodating! The portion sizes are generous and there was a lot of different options in the menu. We really enjoyed the fondue and pizzas, would definitely recommend!

Tasty food in a lovely setting. Booked online and went for lunch. Can watch food being made in the open kitchen. Staff friendly and helpful. Pizzas delicious, will definitely return

I’m coeliac so the fact Zizzi do great gluten free options is fantastic. The pizzas are always great and I don’t feel like I’m missing out too much with a gluten free pizza like I sometimes do in other places.

Staff are great and it’s a really nice atmosphere inside.

My Partner and I came for dinner on Friday Night, the food was lovely and was supported with amazing service from Mary-Leigh. Nothing was too much trouble and made our meal very enjoyable. Will definitely be coming back soon.

Excellent service from friendly staff
Excellent food
HUGE starter, unless you’re Desperate Dan, the small calamari is more than enough!!!!
Moggie box for the remains
A most enjoyable evening for our wedding anniversary!!

I had a lovely main meal here, followed by a gorgeous calzone dessert. The staff were really pleasant, and the restaurant is situated in a lovely area of Durham centre. It wasn't my first time here, and it won't be my last.

What can I say about Brian? We have been coming to Zizzis for years at Durham and always enjoyed the food and atmosphere. However, Brian makes the experience so much better, with his cheery personality and wit. Always friendly and accommodating, providing exceptional service. It is clear he knows his job inside out. Thanks for another great meal and dining experience!

Very nice dining experience at Zizzi, Durham…. Friendly service, staff were attentive and the food was especially nice.
Would recommend booking, even on a random Tuesday it was busy.
Would definitely recommend… their Tiramisu is tremendous 😋

Called in on Fri eve and the staff were really welcoming. Food was tasty and we enjoyed nice bottle of rose too.

Generally good, however there was only 1 guy serving the whole of the downstairs and was run off his feet When we asked him why he was on his own he said there would normally have been 4 people on that shift however staffing issues had left him on his own. Which had led to mistakes being made, he dad dropped a bottle of wine close to some customers they had to get moved. He kept forgetting some of our drinks orders so it lead to some of our group not having a drink for a while. But we understood the position he was in.
We tipped him anyway x

Excellent service. Great choice of menu. Friendly staff..Good atmosphere.Reservations not necessary if the restaurant isn't busy.

During our Durham visit we went for lunch here. The staff was friendly and the food was great. The gluten free options were especially great.

The brownie has been THE MOST AMAZING brownie I have ever had. With caramel and shaven white chocolate.. It was to die for. Waitress was great, food was awesome, wife a bit grumpy but the kids were happy so 9 out of 10!!

Excellent customer service. Food came quickly. A lot of option for gluten intolerance. Recommended
