    Everything about this place was top-notch. My kids got to play with pizza dough, which was such a huge thing while waiting for food and then one of them got to make their own cheese pizza which is unheard of but the best we had a delicious Greek salad a couple of calzones they were big puffy and full of goodness and the pizzas were the best I've eaten in a very long time. Our server was very friendly, attentive and professional. The ambience was very welcoming as well. senior in Beaumont high school, that the law against public within the limits of Beaumont abolished. Don't hesitate to frequent this place as often as you can.

    A stellar place in the middle of tourist trap places. They will not charge you an arm & leg but are not cheap either. Make sure to reserve your spot, otherwise, more than likely will have to wait, at least I assume during the busy summer months. The service is slow even after you are seated with drinks and food getting to your table, but the great tasting food makes up for it for the most part. We had garlic bread, a couple of different pizzas & a calzone and everything tasted amazing! The restaurant is clean with nice decor and a big plus that they have their own parking lot so you're not paying $5-10 to park while you eat.

    I'll start with my only two critiques which takes it down to 4 stars. 1. Food is just waaaaay too slow. Be prepared to wait and keep this in mind if you're bringing hungry children. Food will NOT come fast. 2. Table bread that comes with pasta is very plain Jane sliced white bread. And butter ? Isn't that sacrilege in a self described "authentic" Italian restaurant ? Where is the olive oil and balsamic ? Anyway...When the food finally gets to your table.... wow! Hands down the top 3 pizzas I've ever had in my life. Deep , rich flavour. Dough is perfectly salted. The sauce and cheese are quality. The children ate it all up ! I also had the eggplant lasagna which is again one of the top 3 I have ever had. Just superb. Perfectly executed. Not salty , not too cheesy. Balanced ! The "gravy" makes you wanna lick your elbows. Tastes like it came from homegrown tomatoes. So so good! Our server Karen was delightful and great with the children and kept us updated on the progress of our meals. A MUST VISIT family restaurant when you're in Niagara.

    Zappi's is a reasonable meal option very close to the Falls. We had the stuffed mushrooms, steak salad, and a large Zappi's works pizza. That was more than enough food for the four of us. The stuffed mushrooms had pork inside them and were topped with some cheese. The steak salad's meat was more like the shavings that go in a Philly cheese sandwich rather than actual steak, but it was still tender and well-seasoned. I found Zappi's works to be a bit on the salty side, with toppings a bit unevenly distributed but the dough was fluffy and even the ends were tasty. Service was a little on the slow side, and our water refills went entirely neglected. The stairs down to the washrooms are a bit of a trip and fall risk, and the washrooms needed a bit more attention. There are a few free parking spots (rare for this area!) and the building and interior have the charm of an old-school diner. The prices were comparable to restaurants in Toronto, and the portions were generous. Not a tourist trap! We'll probably visit again.

    Zappi's was a pleasant surprise in Niagara, where honestly, a lot of places feel like they're just waiting to overcharge tourists. Prices here were reasonable, service was fine, and most importantly, the food was actually good. Because of the long drive and packed schedule, we didn't order much. Just shared the Zappi's "Works" pizza and the stuffed mushrooms. Both were solid. No fuss, nothing trying too hard, just well-made and satisfying. I don't know if it felt extra great because I was so burnt out from disappointments at other spots nearby, or if this place is just that consistent, but either way, I was just glad to be there. Definitely hoping to come back to try more off the menu when time allows.

    Mozzarella
    Adrienne W.

    While visiting Niagara Falls I wanted to find a good restaurant that wasn't super expensive and I found it at Zappi's. I really liked the Italian feel to the restaurant. The decor was really cute. I made a reservation in advance so we did t have to wait long to be seated. We decided on the fried mozzarella for an appetizer and it was really good. I'm not sure why but the pizza really surprised me and my husband with how good it was. We got the small which was the perfect size for us both to share. The only reason I'm only giving three stars is because we were forgotten about by our waitress. It kind of wasn't her fault but during the rush she was really overwhelmed and even though it looked well staffed for some reason our waitress was really being overworked with a lot of tables to service

    This restaurant is SUPER CUTE and colorful on the outside, making it stand out as we drove by, plus it was directly across the street from our hotel. They specialize in Italian food, which is one of our favorites, so we were excited to try them out. We were able to order online for pickup and walk across the street when it was ready, which was very convenient. Everyone enjoyed their food, it was fresh and tasty and totally better than anything we could have gotten from a chain restaurant. Totally worth a visit if you're looking for great Italian food.

    Super busy on a Saturday night. The 5 of us were seated at a table for six, then asked to move to a table made for 4. The acoustics inside were terrible. Conversation was almost impossible. My salad was fresh. I loved the pizza. The crust was delicious and soft with a slight chew. The mushrooms were fresh (not canned). The cheese was the perfect amount. I thought the pizza was very good. Big Daddy, however, complained that it lacked all taste. The chicken in the alfredo tasted processed. It reminded us of the pre-cooked chicken that comes frozen in a bag. The alfredo sauce, however, was fabulous. I could have licked the plate clean. For my family, this place was a place of extremes. Everything (food, atmosphere, setting, etc.) we either really loved or really disliked. Overall, probably not a place we'd return, but mostly because of the crowd and uncomfortable table. You might have a different experience on a less busy evening.

    Small Diavolo Carne

    First I like the small family business vibe that this place has compared to the other chain restaurants around it. It really sets itself apart unique. I give this a 4.5 but Yelp is making me round up to ten. While the Chicken Parm was good, I think where they truly shine is their pizzas. My group shared 3 different pizzas, but our favorite was the Diavolo Carne, whose combination of pepperoni, sausage, and salami with a kick of pepper really hit the spot. The service staff was really friendly as well. Overall, I definitely recommend this as a standout amongst the others near the Niagra Falls hotels.

    We visited Zappi's Pasta based on a recommendation from our hotel and had a very positive experience. This is, without a doubt, the best pizza place in the area. The restaurant is clean and welcoming, making it a great spot for a family meal. We were delighted by the opportunity to watch the pizza being made right in front of us, which added an extra layer of excitement to our dining experience. The pizzas were delicious, with fresh ingredients and perfectly baked crusts. The menu had a variety of options to cater to everyone's tastes, and the pasta dishes were equally impressive. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed throughout our meal. Over all, Old school pizza and pasta spot with reasonable prices for the Niagara hotel area.

    Family‑run gem five minutes from the Falls. FREE on‑site parking is a lifesaver in tourist territory, and the dining room's red‑and‑white checks feel like Nonna's kitchen. Bacon‑laced stuffed mushrooms were juicy flavour bombs. Steak salad stacked with rib‑eye for the carb‑shy. "Zappi's Works" pizza on pillowy crust, loaded with pepperoni, peppers, olives and mushrooms. One large fed three of us. Service is warm and quick, washrooms spotless, prices refreshingly fair for Niagara. Eat here for comforting Italian that won't mug your vacation fund. I will return when I am in the area.

    DIAVOLO CARNE pizza
    Todd B.

    Food: 4* Service: 5* Ambiance: 4* During a trip to Niagara Falls in Canada, we had dinner here. 3 of us shared stuffed mushrooms, lasagna, and the DIAVOLO CARNE pizza. The pizza was out of this world! A little spicy (in a very good way), ample, and well seasoned. The lasagna was good, not remarkable, but we were thankful it came with bread for scarpeta (scooping up the extra sauce with crusty bread). The mushrooms were good, a little cold, but well stuffed and well seasoned. A great alternative just one block from the big hotels overlooking Niagara Falls for a cheaper but delicious meal. Thank you.

    The ambiance was so cute! Loved the truck outside! The pizza was large and delicious! The waitress was super friendly. What a great experience for tourists!!!

    When I was in Niagara falls a year ago, I went to dinner at this restaurant and it was absolutely…read moreone of the most classy and amazing meals I've had. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and everything was really good. Located right on the corner going down Lundy's Lane, the place looks very simple from the outside, but once you walk through the doors you realize you are in for an elegant dining experience. Started out with a orange Pellegrino which was wonderful, they brought out some bread and this amazing honey and ricotta cheese spread. Absolutely to die for but be careful. It would be easy to fill up on that and miss out on the wonders of the meal that's coming. I started the meal off with their Caesar salad which was absolutely perfect. The right amount of dressing lettuce was second to none and it was one of the most delicious Caesars I've had. I opted for the gnocchi oso buco ragu, which was absolute perfection. Be careful though, these gnocchi are no joke. The taste will keep you eating all of them and you will absolutely be ready to take a nap afterwards. Bottom line? If you are looking for fine dining in the Niagara falls area, you would be doing yourself a disservice not going to this restaurant. It's absolutely wonderful and I highly recommend it!

    We had dinner here last night - a Friday - this was our 2nd visit to this restaurant. We did have a…read morereservation which I would recommend, they are pretty busy. Beautiful, beautiful restaurant with great atmosphere, soft music, amazing service by Juan our waiter. We started with Caesar salad and the bruschetta appetizers - Boyfriend's salad was very good. I liked the capers and strong hint of anchovies in the dressing (which he always has on the side). Bruschetta was not what I expected - I felt it was missing something, not much flavor - although the bread was super fresh and tomatoes perfectly ripe. As mains he had the Americana pizza (pepperoni) and I had the lamb, served with a citrusy risotto and rapini. I loved the lamb! Highly recommend. It was literally so tender that I didn't need the knife to cut it! We asked Juan how the cook made it that way - he wouldn't tell and said it was the kitchen's secret! It was delicious. Risotto was perfect too. I'm not a fan of rapini but it was well cooked and seasoned. Boyfriend regretted his choice a little, although he says his pizza was good - but after tasting my lamb, he was sorry he didn't choose a meat dish. I had a shot of Amaretto on ice and the cannolis for dessert. Delicious and obviously homemade. I was a bit put off that a bus boy pulled out our appetizer plates while we were still actively eating. Hint, if our forks are in our hand and we're bringing them to our mouth with food on it, we're not done yet :/ Not the first place this happens and a pet peeve of mine... but whatever. Also, the couple with 5 kids... 5 kids omg... maybe this wasn't the best restaurant choice for you if you are going to let the two small ones run wild around the dining room and almost hit a waiter with a tray of drinks... but this isn't the restaurant's fault. We will return! Worth it just for the amazing lamb, and a short 5 minute walk from the Doubletree hotel, if you are staying there!
