My sixth visit and it never disappoints. Staff are super attentive, friendly but not pushy. The food is unmatched, the grilled octopus starter and garlic prawns especially so - highly recommend these!! Looking forward to coming back real soon.

The food was average. The waiters kept taking our drinks to to wrong table. Waiters asked if we had finished our main before they even came out. We spent so much time waiting for our main that we was told we didn’t have enough time for dessert. Cocktails were excellent

the chair was so low, had to call the waiter to bring the wine menu, yet the food came 5mins apart and further 5mins came the drinks after the food. food labour looked rushed not what I had few months ago that made me return. taste has reduced so has service. contemplated deducting my service charge but left it as a farewell as I would not be returning. shame liked it last time I was there.

Asked to put a mask on before entering, walked 1.5 meters to table to find that tables are less than a metre apart and our table was next to the bar where everyone was going to and from getting drinks , seemed a bit pointless being asked to put a mask on to enter restaurant when that's where it ended, my partner was so upset that we left without eating , we will not return as she felt very annoyed and upset about being told to put a mask on then finds tables right on top of each other and worse our table was next to bar where everyone was located.

This was our first visit to Zavi. We were greeted on entry by waiting staff then the Duty Manager came over to take our name, we had a temperature check, sanitised our hands and the first thing he said was that the table was for an hour and half. I must say this put me off from the start. With hindsight surely this could of been said a different way. i.e. have you been here before? Unfortunately due to the current climate we can only let you have your table for 1 1/2 hours etc. We were led to our table which was immaculate. All the staff were adhering to current safety measures and were wearing face masks. They were attentive and accommodating. We ordered our starters and main course. I must say the food was lovely and hot. Our main course was served pretty much straightaway after eating our starter. Too quick really for my liking as as soon as you’d eaten your starter your main course was sitting in front of you. Even though the food was really nice and I can’t fault anything we ate I don’t think we will be returning as it just felt a bit rushed. After a week at work it’s just nice to be able to sit and relax and take a bit of time to enjoy your food. No little touches at the end of the meal - no chocolate/sweet or aperitif.
