Zizzi - Windsor

You'll find Zizzi tucked right on Thames Street, where it's become one of those spots locals actually return to without overthinking it. The restaurant delivers consistent Italian-style cooking — wood-fired pizzas with properly charred crusts, creamy risottos, and pastas that don't pretend to be something they're not. It's the kind of place where you can rock up with mates after work, grab a table without drama most nights, and know exactly what you're getting. The Thames Street location means you're central enough to Windsor's action but far enough from the tourist crush around the castle.
