Ziniz Restaurant & Wine Bar
The contemporary, light interiors of Ziniz at the heart of Bawtry delivers modern Tuscan cuisine, but still retains the buzzing, friendly and relaxed atmosphere for all to enjoy, at this very popular Bawtry restaurant. Our aim is to deliver delicious food, true to our Tuscan heritage. We bring to our diners recipes passed down from generation to generation.

Some of the recipes date back to 15th century renaissance Florence and have maintained their popularity to this day. At Ziniz we provide you with the best produce from one of the most enchanting regions of Italy. The beauty of Italian cuisine is that it changes from region to region, city to city & family to family, but the one thing that is consistent is it is always made with love.
Services
All our dishes are made fresh in our kitchen the same way my Nonna Cleofe & my father Dante taught me. Skills & passion I have passed onto two of my children Sofia & Marco who have joined me in the kitchen of our family business. We make traditional Florentine dishes with imported ingredients from Italy to ensure authentic tastes & flavours throughout our menu.
Our no.1 priority is to deliver unparalleled quality, service, knowledge, food and wine to our guests. We achieve this through the excellence and passion of our team members. Whether you are looking for a new opportunity, the next step in your career or this is your first job, our family-run company welcomes you into a positive working environment focused on training, mentoring and development.

Don’t really know why, but this was the first time we’ve been. The food choice, including a large vegetarian choice, and quality is second to none. Great service from all of the friendly staff, would recommend this place to everyone.
See you again soon 👏👏👏👏

The best Restaurant in Doncaster in my opinion Superb food , great atmosphere ,high quality drinks and impeccable service Ziniz stands the test of time, restaurants don’t stay in the game over 20 years and be… busy like this if they aren’t doing things well ! Highly recommended for food or drinks the courtyard is great fun too .

The food and service were excellent but one really disappointing and sub standard service was the complete lack of a disabled toilet on ground level. I had to walk through part of the kitchen where a young man was emptying the dishwasher. The toilet was tiny and was obviously the kitchen staff toilet. Surely this is wrong?

We attended Bawtry at the weekend for our Christmas works night out and ate in Zinis. It was absolutely amazing. The food, drinks, staff and atmosphere. A big thank you to you all, and a special thanks to a young waitress, Ella, she did an amazing job looking after us all evening. She is an absolute credit to your team. Will definitely be returning very soon ❤

Wouldn’t recommend this place. Went last night for a meal. Food, tasteless. Overpriced. My partner and two other family members had ribeye steak which was very fatty. They had to leave it. Complained about the meals. Management wasn’t interested at all. Very poor service. The bill came to £313 an absolute disgrace.

Our experience was mediocre, great atmosphere. There were 4 of us, 3 of them were ok. I thought the food was over rated for the price. Mine was a burger which was overcooked and dry. The other was beef which was well cooked and the mash had a weird taste. I wouldn't rush to go back...

Had a great meal for a recent birthday- between us we had Salmon Risotto, Braised Beef, Pork Fillet Medallions as main courses plus various starters and drinks- came to £127 Inc 10% service. So, not cheap but all of it was excellent. For those driving there's plenty of car park space literally a few yards away.

Had a meal at Ziniz with my husband for my 50th. Three course meal, Bolly, wine, coffee and liqueurs. Came to about £260, but worth every penny! Attentive staff, amazing food and an evening to remember!

We have visited many times over the years and never had any issues whatsoever. Recently we booked for food only but decided to stay for drinks. Chris was fantastic, did his upmost to sort a table for us even though it was very busy. He didn’t forget us and sorted it out. He’s very attentive, on the ball and a true asset. Thanks Chris, we look forward to our next visit.

So... the wifes 40th birthday. Went with 6 of us to follow the covid rules! They did unbelievable and couldnt be any better. The seating was outside and pre booked in a fantastic location next to the heaters. They let us put balloons up and banners which was fab. We all said that it felt like we were in marbella with a great atmosphere. We all had food and was amazing. 10/10

Nice food. Although meatballs could do with a little more sauce. Very attentive service. Reasonable prices. Make sure you pay for parking outside. Traffic wardens operate even on a Saturday evening.

I have eaten at Ziniz several times in the last few months and have found the food and service to be flawless each time. Granted, I have been at lunchtime or quiet evening mid-week so can't comment on how it is during busy periods. The food is of a consistently high standard and the decor is modern and fresh.

Don't go to Ziniz on a busy night even if you have a table booked-the door staff are positively rude and have no idea of customer service.
Bawtry is an up market town which attracts a client base of business owners and professional people,its not a town centre full of louts,you would think that the business owners would require staff who could adapt and deal with the mainly discerning client base that frequent Bawtry in a manner befitting.
If you have a table booked at this restaurant don't be fooled into thinking you will get in-we were turned away at the door like town centre thugs
