Slightly above average Italian food at (currently) average prices, served quickly and competently. It's a chain, so the menu is a tad soulless, but I was impressed enough by the flavours that I'd go back.

Was not very accommodating when sat in an area that felt like a wind tunnel...continuous breeze on a cold evening. Not a comfortable environment to enjoy a family meal. Food was good though we felt co.pelled to eat up quick as we felt so cold where we were seated.

Have visited many times and never had such poor service as we did today. They sat us right next to the kitchen, the lady that seated us told me due to my allergy of mushrooms I should order a pizza instead of pasta as they can ensure no mushrooms would touch my pizza, and couldn’t guarantee that with a pasta dish, well that irritated me because all the ingredients were in the same area of the kitchen we could see this because we were sat on top of the kitchen essentially, but also I’d told her I’ll just choose something with no mushrooms in it, and having looked at the pizzas there were roughly 15 flavours, and only 2 of them didn’t have mushrooms which was laughable. My husband ordered a mocktail due to driving, tasted like Alka Seltzer, I ordered the pineapple spritz, and received half a glass of nothing that resembled pineapples, not even sure it had spiced rum in it and to be honest I could have ordered a soda water which would have tasted the same but cheaper. The meal came, half the portion I have received previously, the chicken was tough therefore was left. My husbands meal he could have picked up from Marks and Spencer’s and it would have been nicer. The waiter said do you want some Parmesan this is where I expected the cheese block to be grated on our meals, no we got some shop bought pre grated rubbish in a little cup, also we had ordered two pasta dishes so two cups would have been preferable but we received one between us both. No one came to check on us, to say how is your meal, or do you want more drinks, we decided at this point it wasn’t even worth complaining because it was hard enough getting a bill, and we’d have been sat there even longer if we hadn’t noticed you could pay online via the bill, because getting a member of staff to come to you with a card machine was out of the question. Put it this way we will not be going back. It’s a shame it’s gone down hill.

Just ordered from Uber eats. One main meal didn’t arrive and the rest was cold. On ringing zizzis they basically said there was nothing they could do. Total lack of common decency. Trash.

This was my first, and will be my last ever, visit to Rizzi. I ordered the ravioli parcels filled with goats cheese and spinach in a tomato sauce, topped with pesto and pinenuts and it was absolutely tasteless and completely lacking in any meaningful flavour. This was accompanied by the greasiest, and totally limp, garlic bread that it has ever been my misfortune to have experienced.

Excellent customer service, tasty food and neat environment...will definitely visit again when I'm in Leicester. I was there with my active 5 y/o and it was a pleasure to see how the staff were patient with us.

Really brilliant rustic pizza, well done Zizzi as UK pizzas usually too thick and soggy. Malbec wine excellent. Deserts exceptional. Friendly staff, could not fault anything. ???

Very friendly and efficient staff. We went on a bank holiday Monday, it was very busy but we easily got a table for two. Lots of pizza and pasta options, not many vegetarian options but enough. The food arrived hot and we only waited 15 minutes. We were given free chips with our drinks.
