Mission & Purpose

Zizzi is not just in the business of food. It’s not just lunch, not just dinner. We are in the business of creating magic and memories for our customers, beyond just a meal. At Zizzi we don’t do good times, only Great Times. That’s our secret sauce. Zizzi is something special and we want our customers to feel that way too. Back in 1999 we opened the doors of our first ever Zizzi restaurant. Our philosophy was simple: every time you dine with us, it should be for great Italian inspired food in an environment designed by individual touches unique to the surrounding area. Today we have over 130 restaurants based in the UK and Republic of Ireland, but our philosophy remains the same. Our people, food, service and the prime locations make Zizzi the perfect place for good friends and family to come together and have a Great Time.
