    Spaghetti Chorizo Carbonara
    Eric W.

    Food was delicious and service was excellent. Tried the Spaghetti Chorizo Carbonara, was perfect and delicious.

    Bruschetta
    Sara D.

    I met a friend after years of not seeing each other, and we were walking around to eat lunch. Zizzi provided a perfect spot. Limoncello Spritzes, Bruschetta, Margarita Pizza & Chicken & Pancetta Risotto, Cappuccino & Espresso completed our meal. The Bruschetta was nice with plenty of Cherry Tomatoes and a Pesto Sauce and Mozzarella Burrata. The Spritzes, strong and refreshing. The Classic Pizza was a big one, I could only eat 1/2. Not the typically Margarita that I am used to, but it was good. My friend liked her Risotto Overall, a enjoyable lunch. Service was attentive.

    Truffle and pancetta carbonara
    JadyMarie D.

    We visited this Zizzi's location while walking around the City of Westminster. During our uber ride from the hotel to the area, we saw it come up on the map. The decision was pretty unanimous since we had tried it during our stay in Wales. The kids in our group were extremely excited to dine somewhere familiar. The staff seated us very quickly. We opted to dine outside because there was a beautiful breeze and plenty of shade. The restaurant is quite large, but very clean. The food was delicious. We enjoyed: - spaghetti bolognese - truffle and pancetta carbonara - herb rolled pork belly We will definitely be back to Zizzis. We hope you have a good experience when you dine at any of their locations.

    Found this place at the last minute and even though we didn't have a reservation, they were able to seat us until 7 pm. The food and service was so good and I highly recommended this restaurant

    While in London I wanted to eat and expierwnce local culture as best as I could with the little time I had so naturally I went to an Italian restaurant lol but seriously it was a delicious meal and totally worth it. I found out that this is a chain restaurant and I was surprised because everything is a super authentic tasting. The restaurant offered a special that included a started a main a dessert and the option of adding a class of presecco for an additional 2 £. To start I had gotten mini aranchinni which were delicious my main was a carbonara and I had tiramisu for dessert. I honestly have no complaints with the quality of food everything was delicious the only thing stoping thIs place from a 5 star review was how long it took for wait staff to check up on us and bring the next courses over !

    Spaghetti Pomodoro- mozzarella was delicious!
    Heidi W.

    Great Italian, even if it is a chain restaurant. I enjoyed the food and I needed a break from all of the pub food I'd been eating. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with hanging meats and vegetables, different lighting and wood floors. The service was very friendly although our server was very busy running around. I had to ask multiple times for water. The wrong food was delivered to our table. All minor things that didn't really bother me. The wine was excellent. They have some great reds from Sicily. Be sure to try at least 1! The food was excellent. The crust on the pizza was perfect- chewy, but crispy. The buffalo mozzarella on the spaghetti pomodoro was the best part of the dish. Everything was fairly priced. I'll be back next time I'm in town.

    Wine, wine and more wine. (iPhone doesn't handle this type of shot well.)

    Very busy on a weeknight for dinner, I was here with two colleagues. Even though there were a couple of clean tables, we waited about ten minutes until we were seated at one by the window. (Which gave me a moment to visit the Men's room, which was clean.) Two regular chairs facing a two-seat sofa, it was uncomfortable and very low. If offered, take a table with regular chairs. An Italian restaurant, so the beer choice was of course Peroni, available in 330 or 600 ml bottles. I would have hoped to have other options, or even draft, but this was all. Lots and lots of wine was on display in massive back-lit shelves behind the bar. We started with the marinated olives and a plate of the garlic bread. Both were quite good, though I prefer my olives pitted before enjoying. The bread was topped with big pieces of roasted garlic, which set my appetite on high. My colleagues went with the Spaghetti Bolognese and the Mushroom Risotto. The Bolognese looked a little oily and rather a small portion. The Risotto was well enjoyed and very filling, so I was told. I decided on the Trentino pizza, which I thought needed a lot more cheese but it did have good flavor. I'm also not a big fan of the British practice of whole pies. Slicing it up with a knife and fork is a pain and entirely too much work. For dessert, I had the Torta Zizzi, a slice of tart with plum, almond, fig and pistachio. With a scoop of rich vanilla ice cream, absolutely heavenly. I was sorely tempted to lick the plate. We did a reasonable job of engaging our waitress and teasing her the entire evening. She put up with our hilarity and in doing so, earned a good tip. I would absolutely return.

    Orange/watermelon juice with Sprite.
    Rod V.

    Hubs and I came here after a movie at the theater just down the road, the Curzon. It was quite packed, but fortunately they had good turnover so we didn't wait very long for a table. Hubs and I had the caprese salad which was scrumptious, and he ordered the risotto with chicken and mushrooms, I had the pepperoni, ham, and mushroom rustica style pizza, and added hot red peppers. I wished for more of everything, but maybe that's why we Americans are an overweight lot, compared to all of these thin Europeans! I had a delightfully refreshing passion fruit drink, hubs had a orange/watermelon drink, both spiked with Sprite. We finished with an awesome tiramisu. I didn't realize this place was a chain, but with quite a varied menu and such attentive service, we would most definitely come back again!

    Formaggi fonduta appetizer
    Donna E.

    Good value, fantastic food. Shared the fonduta appetizer and primavera rustic pizza with 2 glasses of wine for £29. The pizza was so large we couldn't even finish it. The atmosphere was loud and crowded, waited 5-10 minutes for a table on a Monday night 7pm but services was great and food came out fast. Would definitely return for the great food, service and budget friendly price.

    Olive sampler is great.

However, I need to warn my fellow Yelpers to stay away from Oliveto if you value Good Pizza! I mean, how hard is it to have good pizza!?! It is a simple staple which I have enjoyed in the US, in China and yes even in Italy. At it's most basic, it should be dough, sauce (doesn't have to be tomato necessarily), mozzarella and maybe some toppings, right? Here is where Oliveto went wrong for my mother and me: 1) they use cheap cheddar cheese - not mozzarella! 2) not a lot of sauce, maybe just enough to color it 3) the dough was soggy and didn't rise (I actually like thin crust, but this was inferior doug and 4) topping that were not as advertised, i.e. prosciutto should not look like and taste like store-bought sliced ham! Service was okay - the men like to talk about customers in their native tongue, thinking that patrons don't know what they are saying about them. We were so glad that we split a pie - most tables got a pie per person. Neither of us could finish this "pizza" honestly. Perhaps the only redeeming thing are the prices - this might be the cheapest choice in an otherwise expensive neighborhood.

My mom is, which is why we went but there are rather limited options, at least on pasta courses, that don't include pecorino. 2 - we tried three different pasta dishes. What made them truly stand out was the freshness of the pasta. That said, the sauces weren't remarkable. I tried a special pasta with pecorino, butternut squash, and mushrooms which was nice and not heavy but not partial flavorful. 3 - the ambiance is great if you like a small restaurant- with maybe 10 tables and 500 sq ft of space, this restaurant has character and charm. 4 - the service was outstanding. The staff were kind and efficient. 5 - the dessert was just OK - had some scoops of ice cream and the peanutella was outstanding while the strawberry and the pistachio were just fine. 6 - the appetizer cheese plate was the real highlight of the night here. Fresh cold cuts and cheese with the most wonderful fig jam. All in all; this is a good stop and you certainly won't have a bad experience! Perhaps just not the most notable.

I ordered the lamb chops and personally I wouldn't recommend. For the price, I was disappointed in the size. While in the photo they may look large, the chops were almost the same size as the potatoes on the left. So although they were seasoned really well, you'll still be hungry after.

I'm not sure on that, it's just something I thought we caught on to before we left and there started to be RESERVED tents going on the tables.

It was a little plain. A little tasteless. They could have thrown a few spices into the meat, just a little something. To say that we've made better at home wouldn't be far out. But still good. The calamari was cooked just right. It's what you expect out of a calamari appetizer. Was it the best you'll ever have? Not really. Worth the price? Add it to your appetizer list! The rice balls, which is arancini is, were good. Add a little salt to the top and they were, also, as you'd expect. The fish & chips were exactly as we were hoping when visiting an English Pub for fish & chips. The fish was perfectly cooked, the coating was fabulous, and of course the chips were a perfect compliment to the fish. A great fish & chips experience. The star of the show was the Sticky Toffee Pudding. What a treat! Granted I've nothing to compare it to, this was my first time having it, but whether I've had it before or not THIS was perfection. Perfect texture, the flavour was amazing, the caramel drizzle was perfectly proportioned, and the little bit of ice cream on the side was just perfect. I would go back here simply on this dessert alone. As for the drinks, because, you know, it's a pub....I couldn't say. I don't drink alcohol but my Diet Coke was great!
