    Lovely restaurant and attentive staff. ./Food: / pizzas, prawn starter, Mushroom starter and cocktails.Felt it was abit pricey for our meal £ and they no longer do NHS/Blue-light discounts which was still okay.

    I rarely visit chains, but was pleasantly surprised by Zizzi. The vibe is lovely thanks to the beautiful building and the food was actually very good.I ordered the salad. It was a good portion, fresh and tasty.Only negative was my friend ordering the Triple Chocolate Bomba. It was bizarre and was literlly just a spoonfull of slop that tasted like Betty Crocker chocolate frosting

    Food was very nice and served promptly.At the end of the meal when we asked for the bill, we were presented with a card machine and told the total. We asked to see the actual bill, as we needed to split it. The waitress (Monika?) tutted, and went to get a printout of the bill. When she returned, the bill was passed to us folded, along with the card machine, giving us little chance to check/read it.It was only when we got home we noticed that an "optional" % service charge was surreptitiously added to the bill.At no point did the server even mention this charge, so I fail to see how this was in any way optional.Tips should always be optional, and never added directly to a bill. If the restaurant thinks their servers deserve more, pay them more.I won't be returning.

    Always love a Zizzi and having worked in Taunton for many years, I knew of their lovely menus, service, and this wonderful renovated church style building, in Taunton, as a great place to enjoy time out.This time I went here on th August to celebrate my th Birthday, with friends. I have never been disappointed here, by Zizzi, and so the story continues.With so much to choose from, plus some established favourites, I ate a shared Favourites board for starters (for two), and had a spicy Calzone for main, Normally, I like to complete the set with a Tiramisu to finish. However, my friends and I were pretty full from those courses so declined this time, though want to go back to enjoy, later...they even have a novel strawberry/raspberry flavoured tiramisu to tuck into, too.We had great service and it's always personable too. That's part of their appeal too, and the place is always buzzing/packed, so you know you are in the right place.Going back for seconds/thirds soon
