    Had a lovely meal for 2 on a Saturday night. It was quite busy, booking is definitely advisable. The food was excellent and the staff were all really nice and helpful. Leo,our server, was a delightful young man who made our evening just that little bit better so thank you to him

    Zsanett was so helpful, she helped us find a different table so my grandmother could hear and we could have the dogs outside. It was heated the whole time. And nothing was too much trouble.

    Very good value, service was very good. Truffle pasta dish, was the square cheese “fixing” meant to be crisp? It wasn’t and the pasta a bit rubbery. I hope the excellent servers appreciate that us seenagers with only state pension can no longer afford to tip……..

    Disappointing visit to Zizzi in Dorchester. Walked in at 4.40. Waited 8 minutes to be acknowledged. Assistant then came over, (, sadly clearly on her own.!), She then said sit anywhere you like, we chose a table she then replied, not there we get busy later and may need that table. We laughed, the place was empty. What she meant was, it was set for 6 people, my group was 4. After ordering our drinks then food in which both my partner and myself ordered the salmon salad, it arrived somewhat underwhelming. After checking the menu when we left we discovered it was missing yellow tomatoes and green beans as in the picture.! That's why it just looked like a plate of lettuce. (, hunt the salmon pieces). I then ordered the new salted caramel bread and butter pudding. I asked if it had sultanas in, the waitress didn't know. Then my partner ordered the candy floss dessert. Nope sorry candy floss machine not working, 2nd time apparently but head office said it was the staffs fault not the machine. ( so she said). Finally the bill, time to pay and leave. 1st time in Zizzis in years, very disappointing. UPDATE, Having received a reply from Zizzi ( no name attatched) it basically said " a mix up with the seats, a mix up with the salmon salad ( no it just wasn,t prepared correctly despite the restaurant being dead quiet) and , i quote, " It,s a bummer when things don,t go to plan" as a response to the candy floss machine not working.!! Who wrote this.? certainly not the manager.? posibly a bored 18 year old.? who replies to a customer with " IT,S A BUMMER" as a response. And why end the reply with " We,d love to make it up to you." HOW.?

    The service from the point of entry was poor and I want to make it clear this was not because the staff weren't friendly and to some degree attentative but purely for the set up. We booked a table of 8 and I had to ask for cutlery for one of our guests as they hadn't accommodated for 8 settings only 7. I asked the lady (excuse my description but I dont know her name) she was lovely but didn't follow up on my request even when she came to the table and I showed her the missing place setting, we waited patiently and had to ask again for a setting from another waitress who then brought cutlery for my son to have. When our drinks order arrived they cleared only half the unwanted glasses from the table leaving 3 glasses at the other end, 1 of the glasses was covered in smear marks , im assuming from the dishwasher, a wipe round with a cloth would eradicate that. Minor as that is its about presentation and standards of which that was disappointing. My daughters partner asked for a 2nd drink and had to wait around 20 mins to then be told it wasnt put through so it was ordered again and we could see it sat on the bar for another 10 mins before we had to ask for it. I said to the waitress waiting nearly 30 mins for a drink was un acceptable and I hoped it would now be complimentary and to be fair it was. The food arrived in good time and as always it was really lovely, thankfully all 8 of us didn't order pizza, had we done so then the table given to us would have not been long enough to accommodate everyone. When the bill came out I asked politely for the service charge to be removed as I felt it certainly did not justify the 12% charge. Gorgeous food as always and incredible tiramisu but the service and set up let the experience down. It was a meal for my sons 20th birthday so I wanted everything to be just right and im afraid to say it wasnt. It's a shame it was let down by basic standards. We have been many times and this is the only time ive removed a service charge and walked away a little flat. My wife said there busy hence the poor service maybe. My response was thats no excuse standards should be maintained regardless of how busy or quiet they are, the customer should not suffer for staff incapabilities. If the staff can't cope with a full restarunt remove tables to take the pressure off them in dealing with large numbers or get a team in who can deal with a packed restaurant.
