Great experience here. Amazing food for the price. Very friendly staff. We spent four nights in Galway and ended up going here for dinner 3 times! Pizza italia and the chicken Caesar salad are delicious. Strongly suggest trying this out if you’re in town!

incredible restaurant with great portion sizes!the person that looked after us (i'm so sad i didn't get their name!) was extremely lovely! they even gave my friend a list of suggested pubs!i had the best veggie pasta i have had in my life (cream of broccoli, broccoli, peppers and mushrooms) and my friend had a delicious pizza! the bruscetta exceeded both our expectations in terms of size and taste, and i just wish we had enough time to get a dessert 10/10, no notes, wish them only the best!ps. well-worth travelling from cork for!

We , a party of 3 , ate at Zappi's last night, Friday 28th , we arrived in just after they opened and got a table no problem. From start to finish the service and food was excellent! Two if us had the garlic bread with Mozzarella to start with and it was honestly the best we have ever eaten. My husband had the Calamari to start with and he raved about it. Two of us had pizza which was also super delicious and my husband had the seafood linguine which he said was also the best he had ever had. We will definitely be back when we go up to Galway again, many thanks to the chefs and staff for a lovely dining experience.

We only decided on the restaurant at the last minute, but it turned out to be an unforgettable experience. Upon arrival, we were greeted by candlelight and what we thought was Italian music, setting a cozy and authentic atmosphere.The menu is relatively small, but every dish we tried was absolutely delicious. I opted for the vegetarian pizza, and it was divine – the dough was airy and perfectly Neapolitan, with a tomato sauce and mozzarella that tasted fantastic without feeling oily or heavy.We both decided to try a dessert, and if you’re a Nutella fan, I highly recommend the Nutella pizza. It’s the perfect sweet treat to share, and it really hit the spot.What truly made our evening special was the service. I’ve never met a waiter who was nicer or made us feel more welcome. If I ever find myself back in Galway, I know exactly where I’ll be eating – this experience was truly worth every penny.
