We just had gotten to rome and wanted to walk around with no real destination, we found this little pizza place off the beaten path, and it looked like it had to be good. We were right. We got 2 slices and 2 sodas. The prices were fantastic and the food was even better. Highly recommend stopping it for a bite read more

Great Rome style pizza! The best rome style pizza which is flat sheet /square pizza. Try the ones with roasted peppers.

This is a must for my family when we come to Rome. The pizza is so good. They reheat their pizza when you order it and the taste is so good. One of the best pizzas I've ever had. I get the margarita pizza and they have more options but all I need is the simplicity of the margarita pizza. It's very affordable and filling. read more

Cibo è FANTASTICO!!!! The freshest ingredients and very perfect crispy crust here--- such a great little stroll from my hotel. Loved the sun, loved the bustle of warm city, alive with fervor! I wanted to try the Arancini too, but instead I got a few slices and an order of calamari fritti. The squid was not the lightest and crispier I have definitely had, but thumbs up for this popular corner for locals. Only about 3 bistro tables available for inside dining. Bravo PS had my second bottle of chinotto: Sicilian blood orange? read more

This place doesn't charge table service. They served whole pizza starting at 7pm. We ordered a slice of margherita and spicy proscciuto and aranciata drink and cost around 7.50euros. The waiter/ cashier was very pleasant. read more

Really excellent pizza! It's a very small spot so you may or may not be able to get a table but I loved how it was a hole in the wall type of place. The pizza is so fresh tasting and did not disappoint. Also, the guy who was working the front spoke English which was helpful. They have all their pizzas pre-made in a glass case and you just pick how many slices you want of whatever flavor. I got some type of blue cheese/mushroom pizza, margherita pizza with giant pieces of mozzarella on top, and some kind of pizza with meat/creamy cheese/basil. They were all so delicious and I really could not tell you what my favorite one was. Definitely stop by here, it's about a 15 minute walk from the Coliseum and worth every step. They're very fairly priced and you get a fair amount of pizza per slice. read more

Who knew Yelp was going to work in Rome?!?!? I didn't but I am sure glad it did! This is literally a little hole in the wall pizza joint and apparently it's in a travel book also. The pizza here is sooo sooo good!!!! Might be the best pizza I had the whole time I was in Italy. We got there right when it opened and they already were cranking out delicious pizza it's so good my mouth is still watering thinking about it. We tried almost every kind they had at the time and their special pizza was AMAZING!!! It's like a 4 cheese pizza with a little kick to it! the Margarhita Pizza awesome!!! Literally all the pizza is so good. The cashier/cook/etc spoke english very well so that helped out a lot and was super nice. Recommended us drinks and the explanation was sprite but better, fanta but better and boy was he right! It is a tiny tiny spot though with maybe 6 chairs all together and no AC. It was very warm out so it made the store warm too but fear not that did not deter me from getting delicious pizza! This is a must stop as we were there and easily in 20 minutes 10 other people came because it was recommended to them or they found it on google/yelp/in a book. Come here if you can and get a few slices, take seat enjoy the scenery and take it all in while drinking sprite but better or fanta but better. You won't regret it! Enjoy! read more

Best pizza! We were visiting Rome from the US and liked a lot of the pizza around the city, but this place was for sure our #1 favorite!

Smallest pizza place in the world but friendly guys that are helpful and speak English. I don't eat Anchovies but I tried there fried ones here: on point! With a little fresh lemon squired on top, they are perfect. The pizzas are not too thin and not too bread-y just right. they are done squared and they will sell you the amount you want. You don't have to buy the whole thing. Great if you want to try multiple flavors. They have about 10 different pizzas to choose and when you choose they heat them up and serve them with a slight char...awesome! They have a small fridge that you can grab your own drinks from: beer, soda, bubbly water...etc. I'll be back for sure!! read more

Do you have *your* local pizza joint? If I lived in Rome, Zizzi Pizza would be it. Heck, I don't even have one in Houston, and I'm already claiming allegiance. It's the smallest restaurant ever - it literally seats 12 people max, inside and outside, but you have the option to carry out, which we elected to do. Fortunately we had the nicest Roman girl help us order, and when an Italian kisses their fingers to show how good something is, I was stoked for this pizza. We ordered the Zizzi (cheese with pepper), Diavola (hot salami and olives), and Funghi (mushroom) - she kissed her fingers for the Zizzi. My favorite was the Diavola - and I don't even like olives. The salami is spicy, the sauce is spicy, just everything about it is SO. GOOD. The Zizzi was excellent, too; really, a completely different style of pizza from what I'm used to (no tomato sauce), but it was addictive with the slight spiciness to it and the glorious cheese. The mushroom was pretty typical, but you could tell they used fresh mushrooms, which is always welcomed. The pizza here is thin and crisp, but it isn't paper thin - in theory you don't really need a knife and fork to eat this Italian style, especially since the pizza doesn't really get soggy (we walked back 10 minutes to our apartment, and it was still crisp!). They cut their pizza into quarters, which is a hefty serving to eat barbarian style with your hands, but hey - you do you, right? Can't rave about Zizzi Pizza enough. Affordable, especially for European standards, and just absolutely delicious. Seriously lamenting that I can't have this at home! read more

Zizzi Pizza - The most nondescript pizzeria ever - Zizzi Pizza! - Pizza Near Me - Rome, RM

This place has such amazing pizza and it's so affordable! Even the beer is cheap! It's only 50 cents more than a soda, so drink up! I know I ended every sentence with an exclamation mark, but it was absolutely necessary. This place is very affordable. My brother and I stumbled across this small pizzeria after checking into our hotel and had our first meal in Italy here. We were on a mission to eat as much good pizza as we possibly could and this place did not disappoint. We had spicy salami, speck and brie, margarita, garlic and salt, mushrooms and no cheese, bleu cheese and radicchio, and another slice with some kind of a ham. Every one of these slices were a dream come true. We went in before the pizzas came out of the oven so we got them very fresh. I would recommend coming early so that the pizza is not sitting out since its in a display case and not made to order. I also believe this place is cash only. read more

Zizzi Pizza - Everything was so tasty. My favorites were the mushroom, speck and Brie, and the spicy salami - Pizza Near Me - Rome, RM

The pizza - the pizza was good, but would have been better if they heated it up before serving it to us. They have the pizzas on display, so unless you got it when it was just made, then it will likely be lukewarm. I prefer my pizza freshly hot out of the oven. Drinks - they have water, a variety of wines and somewhat unique soft drinks. If you're looking for just Regular coke products, you're out of luck. The restaurant - super small! There are only 3 tables, all very small. Two of them seat 2 ppl, and the 3rd table seats only 1 person! Don't expect the take-your-time/no-rush feel of most restaurants in Italy. Attention tourists: there is NO RESTROOM at this place. We came here after a long hot tour of the colosseum, thinking we'd be able to wash our hands after some awesome greasy pizza. We were also hoping for a clean restroom to use considering most public restrooms are gross. Summary - pizza is pretty good if you happen to be in the area and don't mind walking around with some greasy hands afterwards, but I would likely not come here again. read more

we were greeted nicely with fluent English and we were immediately served a tasting plate. They are also equipped for vegans and vegetarians! The tasting plate contained enough to satisfy two people. A nice red wine and the food was perfect. If you visit the Vatican, you should stop by. It is nearby and, unlike the other typical tourist shops, very tasty. read more

Very easy going local pizza joint. They have tasty pizza to heat up and drinks are available in the cooler. Cash only.

They were very gracious when we were trying to find food one night. Spoke English and could understand everything we were asking. Reasonable price; not ripping off tourist. Would recommend for quick, whole pizza read more

Incredible authentic Italian pizza. Restaurant is small and quaint. Service was really good and got to meet the chef personally. Definitely recommend if you are in the Monti neighborhood and looking for good pizza. read more

Perfect riceballs with ragu and delicious pizza slices. Beef in hamburgers was juicy with nice taste. Nice and friendly fast service. Good value for money. read more

This place was awesome! If you are nearby and are looking for some good pizza this is the place! The staff were very friendly and spoke great english. They helped explain the menu and had a great attitude. Definitely go here if you want good pizza and good service! read more

Easily the friendliest service I've had in Rome, and I haven't had great service so it was a nice change. The girl who helped us took time to explain how it worked, which was which, and recommendations. I got ham and cheese, my hubby got vegetable. He has a knack for picking the weirdest stuff on the menu and of course didn't like the pizza. I didn't care for his either, but I'm a carnivore all the way. The pizza was good, but lacked a bit in salt. Maybe I just like salt. We also had rice balls and ham and cheese balls at her recommendation and I wasn't wowed by them. The concept is cool though and to my understanding it is a local thing. With a beer, water, two slices each and the rice balls, I believe we were at around 10.50€. Ain't too shabby! If you're exhausted after waiting in the lines all day at the Coliseum, definitely make the trek up hill to get this pizza. read more

Run. Don't walk to this place. So tasty. So fresh. So...Rome!!! We waited about 15 minutes past the opening time for them to be ready. So worth the wait. Pizza margherita was our fave, followed by a cacio e pepe/ Quattro formaggio. Cheap. Hot. Fresh. Out of this world. read more

Lunch on our first day in Rome consisted of a slice of margherita pizza from Zizzi Pizza, and it was an excellent "welcome" to Italy! The best pizza we've had so far and so inexpensive. If you are staying at Domus Liberius (like we were), Zizzi is just around the corner and I would highly recommend checking it out! read more

This is a hole in the wall, but the pizza is unforgettable! I loved that some sauces were made of squash rather than tomato. Everything was exquisite, even though you're sitting on a stool in the middle of a Piazza. Put on your old shoes and some torn jeans and get down with some of the best pizza in the world! read more

So delicious. Hole in the wall. It was August so it was hot and the place doesn't have A/C and a brick oven is blazing, so it was hot in there. But damn it was a fantastic pizza. Had the Margherita and their fried risotto. Fabulous! Best meal in Rome. read more

Fantastic pizza - great side dishes (these stuffed breaded rolls) - great service and the person serving spoke English which was fantastic -

Pizza was very good. Supplies was above average. Some how ordered a chicken sandwich that was very good and unexpected (language issues)

This place was close to our hotel and had the most wonderful fried anchovies. I'm used to eating the whole fish when I get fried anchovies elsewhere but this place had taken the take to clean and remove the head on every little fish. I wish I could find these in the US. They are my favorite!! read more

Came in here with a group of 8 guys as soon as we arrived in Rome after a long travel day from Munich and couldn't recommend it any higher! The women working the counter was fantastic, spoke very good English, and would joke around with us as we're "those" American guys walking around with big travel packs. The pizza here is served up by the slice and they make a great variety of pizzas. Ranging from the traditional margarita pizza to more innovative blue cheese and mushroom. All excellent! We stopped here for our first dinner and grabbed it a few days later for our last lunch on our way out of town. Perfect little spot in a central location with great pizza and an awesome staff! read more

First time getting pizza there was a good experience. Coming back a day after was quite disappointing. The sauce on the pizza tasted like it was was a mixture of tomatoes and water, mozzarella was bland. Overall, it is a nice one time pit stop read more

[+] Best pizza we had in Rome [+] They use organic ingredients [+] Everything tastes fresh and delicious [+] Prices are low, compared to other places where you can only get standard quality [+] Very friendly and attentive owners [-] They have only a few tables and chairs, so maybe order it as take-away and enjoy it somewhere else read more

I love pizza and I have to say this is one of the best ones out there. Absolutely delicious, I wish I lived in Rome so I could enjoy it again. Wonderful food, wonderful people. You won't regret it. read more

They post a sign that says it is about quality and not quantity and they sure do have the quality down pat. I would say the quantity is decent here too. We split a round pizza with olives and salami and it was out of this world good and reasonably priced. The service was warm and genuine. Although there are a couple of tables, it is more of a takeout or have a quick meal kind of a place. Try it and thank me later. read more

We came here on New Year's Eve. They don't have much seating, about 4 tables and no bathroom. We ordered a margarita pizza and when it arrived, it was soggy for most of the pizza. It was expensive (twice the price of ROme pricing) for a margherita pizza and quality wasn't representative of the pricing. The owners were very sweet and so I couldn't bear to ask for a non-soggy pizza. We ate it, but probably won't be back. In the city of pizze, it's not too hard to find great pizza. read more

I ventured to Venice, Rome and Florence making sure I visited the top few pizza places in each city. This place undoubtedly had the best pizza I found during my visit to Italy, and was inexplicably well priced to boot. If you're in Rome and looking for the good stuff, avoid the tourist trap pizza restaurants and get yourself a couple of slices here. You won't regret it. read more

Little hole in the wall place, but good food here. We came here on our first night in Rome after a long day of flying for something quick and easy. Zizzi didn't disappoint! The service was good and the staff was really nice - the couple of guys that helped us all spoke good English, and were happy to give advice as to what to get. The pizza tasted great, but my only criticism was that the crust was super thin - to the point of being soggy. My girlfriend's pizza wasn't that way, so it may have just been an anomaly. Heads up - they don't serve round pizzas until 7 pm, so before that is only by-the-slice. This is a pretty common feature in Italian pizzerias, so make sure to check the timing of the switch before you make a decision. read more

Fantastic pizza away from the tourist crowds. Great variety at reasonable prices. Just know that the place is tiny and you might need to either stand and eat, as my group did, or take your pizza to go. read more

Excellent service and great pizza. We got there early in the morning and tried everything they had to offer as it was being made. I totally see why they have such a high rating. read more

On 6/11/14, my husband, 12 year old daughter, and I visited Zizzi Pizza because of the TripAdvisor reviews. We ordered a variety of pizzas by the slice. Our favorites were the ham & mozzarella, and their specialty 4 pepper spice pizza. Also very good were the marguerita, sausage, and mushroom pizzas. They rise their dough for 72 hours, and they use organic ingredients. Definitely one of the best pizzas we've had in Rome! read more
