Zizzi Opens Its First Irish Restaurant

Pizza and pasta lovers gathered on Wednesday, 6th April 2016, for the official Irish launch of leading Italian restaurant chain, Zizzi, which is located in the Pembroke District of Dundrum Town Centre. Zizzi is renowned for its classic dishes served with a signature twist and is the perfect place to enjoy a good time with friends – be it a pre-cinema dinner date, for a shopping refuel, before a night out with the girls or for a tasty lunch to wile a weekend afternoon away.

A host of Irish celebrities and VIP’s turned out in force to get a first glimpse of the new eatery including Irish DJ and television personality, Vogue Williams, Irish rugby star Jordi Murphy, top bloggers Pippa O’Connor and Grace Mongey, radio presenters Daniella Moyles and Dara Quilty, current Miss Universe Ireland, Joanna Cooper and top models Shauna Lindsay, Irma Mali, January Russell and Teo Sutra.

Upon arrival, guests were treated to Zizzi’s famous Pimp Your Prosecco, a tasty flavour top-up to Zizzi’s prosecco with strawberries, white peach or passion fruit. Cocktail lovers on the night also got to sample Zizzi’s new Pink G&T – a mix of Bombay Sapphire and tonic with strawberry puree, cucumber & fresh raspberries. Those in attendance also enjoyed some Zizzi favourites including delicious ‘Little Soul’ Breads served with a selection of dips, mini Arancini – crispy risotto balls, melted together with creamy mozzarella and peas, and a selection of Zizzi’s signature Rustica pizzas. Zizzi’s signature Rustica pizzas are hand stretched to make a bigger, thinner and crispier base and then loaded with inspired topping combos like the Piccante’s blend of pepperoni, spicy Nduja sausage, salami, roquito chillies, mushrooms, mozzarella, rocket and mascarpone.

Every new Zizzi restaurant features a mural by an up and coming artist who helps to create a unique atmosphere and dining experience for that location. The Dundrum location features a bespoke mural, designed by local artist Fuchsia Macaree, who was also in attendance on the night. Fuchsia’s mural takes pride of place alongside Zizzi’s signature open kitchen, wood stone ovens and rustic log walled interior.

Zizzi is now open in the Pembroke District at Dundrum Town Centre. For reservations, please book online at zizzi.ie.
