Our Story
Like all good stories, ours began with food - and, more specifically, with Italian food. Over thirteen years ago, in a small Italian trattoria in London, offering authentic dishes, pizzas and deli items.
Back then, our lives were just beginning to take shape. I was stepping into the art world, while Zini was taking his first steps towards what would become a lifelong career in hospitality. What began as a shared moment in time, a simple crossing of paths, soon grew into something much deeper: the beginning of us, our family, and a dream we built together.
At the heart of that dream was food. Not just the food itself, but everything it represents: connection, creativity, comfort, and joy. Over the years, that shared passion guided us, inspiring us to build, to create, and to take risks together. It led us to open two bakeries, each one a labour of love, and eventually to bring everything we had learned and loved into what is now our beautiful pizzeria.
Zini’s Pizza & Bar is more than just a restaurant to us - it is the continuation of our story, shaped by years of dedication, growth, and a deep love for what we do. And we are so grateful to share it with you.
