Zio's Pizzeria — Restaurant in St Albans

If you're craving real Italian pizza – napolitan's style, and topped with fresh, flavorful ingredients – this pizzeria is where you need to be. It’s a cozy, unpretentious spot with that welcoming hum of conversation and the mouthwatering scent of dough and garlic wafting from the oven.

The menu is a love letter to Italy: classics like Margherita and Quattro Stagioni sit alongside more creative options with truffle oil, spicy salami, or creamy burrata. The crust is everything it should be – light, blistered, and with just the right chew. Each pizza arrives hot from the wood-fired oven and looks like it belongs in a glossy food magazine.

Staff are friendly and laid-back, happy to recommend a wine pairing or swap toppings. The service feels more like visiting family than dining out.

Don’t skip dessert – the tiramisu is rich and dreamy, and the panna cotta is the perfect finish. Prices are fair, especially considering the quality, and portions are generous.

Whether you're in for a casual dinner or a date night with a bottle of red, this place captures the heart of Italian dining: simple, delicious, and made with...

When thinking about celebrating an anniversary, this restaurant will always be our first and best option from now on. My wife and I have just celebrated our third-year anniversary in this restaurant, which presented us with such an incredible and fantastic moment. First and foremost, I am so grateful to the gentleman and lady, who were the restaurant managers and willing to go out their way to ensure that we had an unforgettable night. Aside from that, this place is emergent with an awesome vibe, and everyone is also really pleasant to meet the customers' satisfaction. Finally, we experienced one of the best Italian pastas and pizzas we'd ever had in an Italian restaurant. The drinks were also amazing and beautifully served. I would like to give a Big 5 Star to the restaurant as well as the management team, who helped us to make such an...

We visited Zio’s today – a cosy little gem whose name means “uncle” in Italian, and you can definitely feel that warm, family vibe as soon as you walk in. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, which added so much to the experience.

Now let’s talk about the food – absolutely delicious! As a starter, we had the spicy prawns, which were bursting with flavour – a real taste explosion. I went for the calzone next – and honestly? First class. The chef’s salad? Pure heaven on a plate.

But what truly stole my heart was the interior design – I felt like I’d been transported to Italy, even though we were still in England 😅. Every little detail was so thoughtfully put together – cosy, stylish, and full of charm.

Zio’s might be a small place, but it deserves a big WOW. We’ll definitely be back!...
