The food was quite delicious. As a literal cheesy person, I had to order a four-cheese pizza. The pizza had a thin crust, which was really nice. I was expecting the four cheeses to be mixed together, but instead the pizza had 2 slices of each of the four cheeses, which was a pleasant surprise. This made it easy to taste the unique flavour of the cheeses. My favourite was definitely mozarella. The second item we ordered was the wagyu beef with mushroom risotto ($298). Sorry if I sound blunt here,

The second item we ordered was the wagyu beef with mushroom risotto ($298). Sorry if I sound blunt here, but I really was disappointed in my first bite of the wagyu beef -- the taste reminded me of Chinese/Japanese braised beef in soy sauce.
I felt like I had suddenly travelled from Italy to Japan, and the beef had no meat flavour. The beef was very tender though -- it really melted in my mouth.
The mushroom risotto had a very nice fragrance of butter. Pairing it up with the wagyu beef, though, confused my taste buds. The dish was an awkward fusion that did not blend two contrasting flavours well.
Price-wise? The wagyu beef risotto was expensive, but PizzaZaza was pretty generous with the meat portions.
You can also order dessert, and depending on adding an extra $10 or $16, you could get a coffee or cappucino/latte respectively.
The environment could be brighter with a cooler tone. The greenish-yellow door and the same-coloured windows creates an atmosphere that reminds me of the humid hot stuffy weather just before a typhoon hits.
I think the colour scheme was intentional, but if different-coloured windows, such as red and blue, were used inside the restaurant to balance out the yellow colour of the door, a better environment would be created. I definitely did not want to linger for long inside the restaurant.
Overall, this place is OK. The food, though special, did not leave a strong impression on me that would make me come back for more, or recommend to my friends.
