What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Zizzi - St Andrews generally receives positive feedback for its delicious food, particularly the wagyu meatballs and cheesecakes, and its attentive and friendly staff who make dining a pleasant experience. However, some reviews mention slow service and inconsistent food quality, with one pizza being described as dry. Despite minor drawbacks, many find it a great place for families and group gatherings.
"We booked a table for 10 people and Zizzi did not disappoint. We were told our Tesco vouchers could only be used for a table of 6 but because we had 4 kids they allowed.
The food was incredible, everyone loved their food, I had wagyu meatballs and they were so good. The cheesecake was incredible and I thoroughly enjoyed my wine.
The servers were so attentive, I thought they were brilliant with the children and adults. Would highly recommend this place."

"We were able to sit outside in the sunshine which was a lovely treat. We took my mum for a meal, she is ill and has recently started to use a wheellchair. All the staff were just lovely, kind and helpful. It was a special meal for us and everybody just made it great and an easier experience in a professional way. We had some Tesco vouchers and some restaurants where I have used these in the past made me feel awkward and cheap- not here everybody was friendly and cheerful about it. The food was delicious today, lovely and hot. Thanks for a great meal"

"First time trying a different Italian in St Andrews. It’s late for lunch so restaurant is not busy. Pasta was nice, real Al dente! Seems to be a good place for family with young kids as place is spacious and bright. There is also outdoor seating."
