Food was mediocre, nothing great. Service was fine (though, I will mention we were the only table in the restaurant), waiter had no personality and was not very friendly. Waiter would not split our bills (again, we were the only table in the restaurant), so we had to do a lot of math - we were a group of 10. Not a relaxing way to end the evening. Priced too high for what you get. Would not return.

Great place with great service. There’s a guy there with so much flair. Suave dude.
I had the bolognese with spaghetti. Excellent cooking. Food was done to perfection.
Highly recommend it if you want quality Italian food.

This past Friday my husband and I hosted a welcome dinner/rehearsal dinner for our 65 out-of-town guests attending our daughter’s wedding the following day. We dealt with both Ara and Billy, both true professionals, knowledgeable and friendly. They offered a great menu, great service, fair pricing. Whether you want to go out for dinner as a couple or a large group, we recommend Zizi Trattoria and their sister restaurant Parola. Either location, you will be very satisfied. Thank you Billy and Ara.

Very authentic Italian food. Very good seafood pasta, scallop, shrimp and mussels are incredible. The calamari were unfortunately overcooked, bit give all our meals were perfect, I'm sure this was bad luck . The service is is on point, bravo!

We had an amazing experience at Zizi’s! The food was absolutely delicious, full of authentic flavors, and beautifully presented. The owner personally greeted us and made us feel so welcome — true hospitality that made the evening even more special. Bonus Ara, the owner is funny and a really nice guy! Everything from start to finish was perfect, and we can’t wait to come back again. Highly recommended!

It’s a nice, bright, and clean place with amazing service located in Woodbridge. Pleasant Italian and Latin music plays in the background, but the interior design is modern and elegant.
Calamari Alla Griglia Tender grilled calamari with balsamic vinegar pesto. Fabulous texture - very tender and firm,”meaty” at the same time. A bit spicy with sweet notes. I really liked it!
Bistecca ai Ferri A perfectly cooked medium-rare striploin was tender and juicy. I asked to exclude sautéed onions for me, but keep mushrooms. So, my photo is not exactly the same as it normally served. However, it was almost impossible to decide which was better this steak with mushrooms or “Bistecca ZiZi” which is grilled and then sautéed in brandy and cream sauce. The latter was also tender and cooked just to a medium-rare condition as requested. Both steaks ere served with seasonal vegetables and roasted potatoes, although I think that for a steak sauteed in sauce something with a bit more bitter flavor – like, kale or rapini, - will augment the dish with a more interesting contrast.
Cappuccino Truffle At first, we were not impressed by the desert selection, but we gave a try and were amazed by this dish: small pieces of coffee meringue covers soft, gently sweet Cappuccino Gelato. It was a small and simple masterpiece in the European tradition.
I have to add that Zizi Trattorria offers not just very good service and gastronomic delights, but also great value as their portions are generous (steaks are 10 oz!) and very reasonably priced. Highly recommended for those who live in Vaughan or visiting Wonderland or Vaughn Mills shopping center.

Pizza was just ok. Crust wasn't great topping and flavor was good. Osso buco was a bit over cooked

Wen portions arrived my stake was flat and dry compere to other portions across me .very disappointed definitely not worthed 40 dollars. If you service 4 portions make sure they same size and not left overs and same for the cheese cake on portion big and other small

Had a birthday dinner last night at Zizi. I believe the owners name is Billy. He greets you as you walk in with a pleasant smile. His servers are so friendly. The calamari are the best in town and the chicken with mushroom sauce melts in your mouth. Its definitely a must try. I will definitely be back!

Fantastic food. Great service. The penne a la vodka is spectacular. Staff very friendly. Highly recommended.

From the moment you walk into Zizi, you’re transported straight to the heart of Italy. The warm ambiance, cozy lighting, and welcoming staff set the stage for what turned out to be one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time.
