Zizzi - Croydon

Food was fantastic, however restaurant was empty all night and the service was terrible.

Visited Zizzi in Croydon with a group of friends. We were given a nice table slightly out of the hub, which was great for us. We weren't rushed at all and felt comfortable to just chat away. Food was good, nice portion sizes. The prosecco tasted good too.

We chose this place, having found the Manchester branch surprisingly good. But it was not quite upto the same standard. Customers much younger and more boisterous than those in Manchester. We chose the same menu items. On balance the fish had a texture which seemed more fried, and the chicken wrapped in ham was more solid . The outstanding feature was again the NZ sauvignon blanc which had the lovely flowering smell and taste we first loved about such wine. Friendly waiter who chatted to us about Poland. Think we will go again but probably try the pasta next time.

Excellent warm welcome when we arrived, and our order was taken by a very professional waitress who was very helpful and attentive, particularly as I changed my order about 5 minutes after she had taken the order to the kitchen. I was very impressed and enjoyed the meal and the service. The food was also excellent. Very generous starter (anti-pasti) and perfectly cooked main course. (chicken breast wrapped in ham, with roast potatoes and green beans). Excellent value too. The atmosphere was very warm and friendly, I really enjoyed my having my meal at your restaurant.

I visited Zizzi with a friend and its a great place to catch up in. I had the chicken risotto which was really nice. I'd definitely come back to this branch.
