12/05/2025: Location & Ambience:
Zizzi is located inside Liffey Valley Shopping Centre, making it a convenient stop during or after shopping. It offers a small outdoor seating area and a modern indoor space. The atmosphere is inviting, with low background music that allows for conversation. It’s suitable for families, couples, or groups of friends—there’s enough room for both small and large gatherings.
Cleanliness & Comfort:
The restaurant is well-maintained and clean throughout, including the restrooms. The seating is comfortable, and the layout gives enough space between tables to feel relaxed.
Menu & Pricing:
This Italian restaurant offers a wide variety of dishes including pizzas, pastas (like carbonara), and salads. The starters menu is appealing with options like brisket bomb, prawns, and calamari. They also serve sides such as fries and crispy riserva potatoes, along with a selection of desserts including salted caramel brownies and raspberry Collins cheesecake.
Drinks include a mix of alcoholic and non-alcoholic options, as well as hot beverages like tea and coffee.
A standout offering is their 3-course special menu (starter, main, and dessert) for around €32. While a few items are excluded, most popular choices are included—making it a great value if you’re planning a full meal.
Food Experience:
We tried the brisket bomb, calamari, and prawns for starters. The brisket bomb was outstanding—full of flavor and definitely the highlight of the meal. Calamari was also perfectly cooked and well-seasoned. Prawns were decent, though not as impressive.
For mains, we had pizza, carbonara with chorizo, and pasta—all of which were good, but not exceptional. As sides, the fries were salty, crisp, and delicious, while the crispy riserva potatoes were just okay.
Desserts were solid: the salted caramel brownie and raspberry Collins cheesecake were satisfying but not particularly unique. Tea and coffee were served well and made a good ending to the meal.
Staff & Service:
Staff were professional, attentive, and friendly. Service was smooth from start to finish.
Accessibility:
The restaurant is wheelchair-accessible and conveniently located within the shopping centre.
Final Thoughts:
Zizzi is a reliable Italian option in Liffey Valley with a modern setting. I’ll definitely return for the brisket bomb—it’s a must-try starter.
While the food is enjoyable, the pricing leans slightly on the higher side—especially without the 3-course deal.
