Pizza Express

10.3.23 had lunch. super fast table service. great pizzas. clean restaurant, good seating lay out. pleasant staff. would recommend you go here.

'nduja & mozzarella linguine, which i had, was on fire. i usually like it spicy. however, this is a whole new level. this probably should be mentioned at the time of order.

Whilst walking around london doing the whole 'tourist sightseeing' we came across this chain pizzeria, pizza express. we entered via the ground floor and stood at the sign waiting to be seated. there were no staff in sight and no other customers at the tables. after waiting a while we decided to head upstairs via the spiral staircase. at this point a member of staff welcomed us and seated us. slightly disappointed to see a change to the menu since our last visit to a pizza express, no hoisin duck. we used our pizzaexpress app (which is a little confusing as you have to order first with staff before adding your table number on the app) we ordered: - the romana bbq burnt ends 'slow-cooked beef brisket with a hint of chipotle, sweet & smoky bbq sauce, mozzarella and red onions, topped with roasted tomatoes and parsley': as always this was really lovely, a little hot 'spicy', but flavoursome and juicy. the pizza base cooked really well too. - the romana garlic prawn 'succulent garlic king prawns on an italian tomato base, with mozzarella, red onion and baby plum tomatoes. fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon really make the flavours sing' too be honest, we would not go for this again. there was a lack of flavour, could not taste any garlic or lemon. the prawns appeared smaller than what we expected of king prawns. although as always they were accommodating in terms of removing the onion, tomatoes and parsley and replacing with mushroom, the pizza lacked flavour and appeared very dry. when the pizzas were brought to our table we were asked if we wanted any sauces, initially we said no, but because this pizza was dry asked for bbq sauce. having watched the sauce be poured from large plastic pot into a very small dip sized pot it was bought to our table. shocked to discover that this cost 75p.. firstly we do not think a everyday condiment should cost.. secondly, overpriced for what you get, thirdly it would have been nice to have known it cost. we utilised the current 'buy 1, give 1 romana' deal. with the deal we can not complain, however without it, we would have to question whether the garlic prawn is worth £15.45. overall, an ok lunch in a nice location. the toilets were back down the stairs, there were stairs leading up too. the staff were friendly and at times the places was quite noisy.

We ordered from here, via deliveroo, as always delicious and really enjoyed it. pizza express is one of the few chains i can eat a whole pizza and not feel sick as a dog after. the wings were a little on the small size in terms of chicken size, but they were tasty enough. calmari was very tender and survives delivery very well. etna was a special pizza only via deliveroo apparently which was delicious.

After 8 years of living in london, i finally tried pizza express. i don’t know what took me so long but i truly enjoyed my first dining experience. the hot honey dough balls were the perfect combination of sweet and spicy. i loved how you could have 2 flavours in 1 pizza. my friend and i shared 1 pizza and it was filling enough for us. service and ambience were good too. i’ll definitely come back.
