Zizzi - Edinburgh Leith

I shared a very pleasant dinner with my girlfriend. We had a starter, main and a cocktail. With our 40% discount student discount came the sum of £35 for the two of us, a great savings.

After we had waited for a while, as this was the case, we received a rather flamboyant and above the highest greeting. We received the menu peruse, but I must say at this point, unlike most places in these days, we were not immediately annoyed to order drinks as we had not decided what we eat to choose an acceptable drink to accompany the food. Then we put our orders for food and drink. The antipasti-sharing plate was a little bit sparse in view of the price of £4 rather than some other zizzi's and as for the Spiedini Pescatore there were no Sea Bream found and again better than other Zizzi's! The food was good, but the prices were not a good value for money. When the bill was presented, there was a pretty big mistake, as we had given some vouchers for billing the total price, but some 15% value were not entered. Overall not ideal and certainly not good.

Whenever I visit this restaurant, the food is always top-notch quality and the staff are incredibly attentive, accommodating, and kind.

My husband, daughter, and I had a great dining experience at this restaurant. Our daughter, who is a vegetarian, particularly loved her goat cheese and caramelized onion pizza. I enjoyed the fish skewer, while my husband had the Crab Cannelloni, both of which were delicious. We also appreciated the view from our table by the window, overlooking the ships in the port, including the Royal Yacht Britannia.

I made a reservation at this restaurant through OpenTable, only to arrive and find out that it is closed!
