Harden's survey result
Summary
“Despite being off the beaten track” in Chelsea (albeit near the King’s Road), this tiny trat’ still packs ’em in. Founder Roberto Colussi died a few years back, but the front-of-house team has maintained his warm welcome and the very dependable cooking.
Summary
This diminutive but “highly enjoyable” Venetian trattoria off Chelsea’s King’s Road (named in honour of the Doge who laid out Venice’s Piazza San Marco) is “really popular with the locals” for its “great buzz”, led by the “loud and funny waiters”. Founder Roberto Colussi died five years ago, but it has carried on in the way he intended, and will celebrate its 40th anniversary next year.
Summary
“There’s a real buzz and warmth” to this tiny but “intimate” Venetian trattoria off the King’s Road, which packs in well-heeled Chelsea locals and their children. Roberto Colussi, who founded it in 1984, died four years ago, but its regulars continue to recommend it as “great for a night with good friends”. “The cooking is amazing given its minute kitchen”, but overall “you don’t really go to Ziani’s for the food”.
Summary
Squashed trattoria off the King’s Road that’s long been a staple of the Chelsea crowd, who find it fun packing in like sardines next to their neighbours. In the year that saw the death of founder and long-term owner, Roberto Colussi, feedback has become a little more mixed than once it was, but it’s still tipped by fans as a “favourite”, especially by those with kids in tow.
