Il Grillo in Bromley

Unquestionably the best quality pizza in crystal palace and I've tried them all. Staff are friendly and welcoming too.

I only put one star as it doesn't allow you to leave none. Waited over an hour for the pizza and when I called to find out where it was they put the phone down on me.

We had several takeaways as it's one of our favs Pizza places on south east london. We still need to try the restaurant

Best Pizza in South London so far!!!!!

Authentic and very tasty Italian pizzas. Lost a star due to the awful garlic bread which went straight into the bin it was so unpalatable.

I have eaten a lot pf Pizzas in London and you really struggle to get a good one. This one is really good and tasty. Have already added this place to my favourite places.

They gave us a calzone pizza instead of a calbrese pizza by mistake and when I called to tell them they sent one asap - very nice food and apologetic about the mistake!

Enjoyed the food, quick delivery!!

Usually the pizza is nice. The delivery is appalling. We ordered 3 pizzas and only received 2, then they wouldn't give us a refund. Outrageous.

A great pizza and casual dining experience. Novel idea to have a pizza/wine deal with BOBs wine, independent wine shop across the road.

Nos encontramos con este pequeño siciliana hermosa cafetería y disfrutamos mucho de nuestra comida. El servicio era amable y eficiente y la pizza estaba allí como uno de los mejores que he probado. Los precios eran razonables y tienen una oferta con la licencia al otro lado de la calle (Bob's), una botella de vino de la casa por 6 libras y puedes conseguir uno de una elección si 3 pizzas también a 6 libras! Sinceramente nos sentimos que estábamos contentos y esto fue confirmado por el hecho de que estaba lleno cuando muchos otros restaurantes en la zona estaban vacíos, altamente recomendado.

I live in Anerley, and I come down Anerley road rather often. As I'm a keen pizza lover, I'm always happy to try new independent restaurants in the area which are not chains, so I thought I would give 'Il Grillo' a chance. We've ordered two pizzas take away by phone, which were meant to arrive at 8pm. However, because some misunderstanding, they've arrived at 7pm. As I was in the middle of something else and not expecting pizzas 1h earlier, I've told the driver that I was expecting the pizzas later. The guy was rather upset and literally turned his back on me and drove away without saying anything (apart from 'I'm only the driver' - rather unprofessional, I thought). My wife then phoned the pizzeria immediately, trying to understand where the misunderstanding came from. She was greeted with unapologetic arrogance by a guy that, unaware that my wife speaks good Italian, was speaking in Italian with a fella pizzaiolo in the restaurant, dropping swearwords such as 'minchia' and 'cazzo' like rain drops - rather rude, I thought.Eventually he agreed to deliver the pizzas for 8, as originally planned. Only to deliver them 20 minutes late (we live 5 minutes drive from the pizzeria), 20 minutes late without an apology.... and even more disappointing, the pizzas were unmistakably the same pizzas he had brought us an hour before, just warmed up again. Late and low quality.I didn't even bother to complain, they are probably still laughing thinking they sent the same warmed up pizzas and we didn't get it... very sad if they think this is a way to build up a clientele in this area.

Este es un lugar que enanas Sirvase usted mismo, tengo que decir que fui por la cuesta un poco de hace un año pero todavía sirve fácil y sabrosa pizza y pasta especiales junto con el menú regular. Hay mucho más italianos especiales en el triángulo pero esto hace el trabajo para a mediados de semana comida con una botella de vino de Bobs al otro lado de la carretera.

Esto nos fue recomendado para visitar.

Sinceramente non capisco il perché di questa recensioni, io vado spessissimo, più volte a settimana , mangio li e ordino delivery. Mai un problema, il cibo è ottimo, gli ingredienti speciali e vengo sempre trattato perfettamente, i prezzi più che ragionevoli. credo che solo persone che davvero si intendono di cibo possano parlarne, e non gente che mangia una vita alla mcdonald. la pizza é stata più volte rispecchiata come la migliore del circondario, le insalate e gli antipasti sono favolosi e le paste pure. Ve lo consiglio vivamente. E a tutti coloro che hanno da ridire, non capite una mazza di cibo scusatemi :)

Las pizzas aquí era muy bueno, y si no fuera por el mal servicio al cliente volvería de nuevo.

He usado a la orden de Il Grillo una vez a la semana, la pizza eran muy buenos, auténtica, sabrosa y fresca. Aunque los aperitivos y otras opciones son nada especial.

"Deberías probar nuestro plato especial del día" - dijo que ... "Es precioso dijeron" - luego un jamón frito + + Hovis estilo atrocidad pan de queso con grasa ha llegado. No comimos esta porquería (no cobran por esto tampoco).

they use non pitted olives for the pizzas, never seen other pizzerias do this. The pizza was also full of liquid which makes it really messy to eat. The salad was very disappointing - just a few lettuce leaves plus some tomatoes and cucumber but it was definitely over priced for what it is! The bruschetta was disappointing too. Overloaded with big chunks of garlic... If it was cheap then we would probably visit again (maybe avoiding any salads or sides) but sadly it isn't. Overall we are really not happy with the food. Will not go again!

Could not be bothered to cook so we had dinner here as it was closest eaterie at time. Food good and piping hot. Service excellent and friendly. No licence so BYO from Tesco next door. £1 per head corkage. Be warned this small bistro is very warm as the pizza oven is in the space. You can sit outside but the road is noisy. Much better than the chain restaurants.

I ve been ordering pizza from this restaurant for about 2 months. Fist time i ve been eating it i thought "this is just as the pizza i used to eat in Italy" but now its just as crap as all the others! Its obvious that something as changend in the restaurant! I would recommend to give it a change again; but this time in better! Really disappointing!

I recently moved to the area and whilst awaiting for our cooler to be delivered we ordered from here.The chef himself delivered our pizza. upon opening the Box there was a cockroach inside!! We immediately rang them and the woman didn't sound too surprised and did not offer a refund but sent a fresh pizza to us.....also having checked on scores on your doors the place was rated 1/5 stars THIS YEAR!!! I feel it's easy to get deceived by this restaurant as it is always quite busy but I feel sorry for the unbeknown customers who eat from there!

Love love love Il Grillo. Superb tasty authentic pizza, lovely staff and great value. Totally agree with other reviewers. This is a real local gem and one I'm fortunate enough to have in my neighbourhood. Be warned though it's a really small place and gets very busy, particularly on Friday and Saturday's....

Terrific value, terrific pizzas and great staff. I hope there's always a free table for me! Bring your own wine and a very low corkage price only adds to the value.

The pizza was absolutely delicious and very authentic. Lovely atmosphere, small and cosy restaurant and friendly service. Also BYOB and very good value food. Would fully recommend!

Dropped in here for a quick bite and was very pleasantly surprised. Good pizza, cooked there in front of you, and excellent service. If we lived nearby we would definitely return.

Great value restaurant with excellent pizzas. Can get a bit hot as restaurant small and oven heats up seating area but otherwise a nice meal and not too expensive as you can bring your own wine. Small Tescos Supermarket is next door

Been meaning to try this local for ages - grabbed takeaway pizza and pasta - pizza was superb, very quickly made, and lovely, friendly staff chatted to us while we waited. Definite new local favourite! So much better than usual takeaway pizza. Will have to try eating in some time soon.

Got take-away pizza and garlic bread. Pizza was salty and greasy. Garlic bread - just bruschetta with garlic sprinkled on the top! Really disappointing.

Our friends took us here when we were visiting, as we wanted to eat out without going over board on price.The prices are very reasonable at Il Grillo, but this is in no way reflected in the taste or quality of the food. 3 of us had pizzas and they were superb. Crispy base with lots of flavour, and there was a large choice of toppings. And a really decent size too. The other person in our party that had pasta, also throughly enjoyed their meal.We also all had icecream for dessert which was very tasty.Our waitress was very nervous as it was her first shift, but she was very personable and explained everything clearly - the menu was in the middle of changing and hadn't been printed yet, so there was quite a lot to remember and explain.The fact that you can bring your own drinks here is what drew us to it, and along with the very reasonable pricing it makes for a cheap but tasty evening out.

Let me say first that the pizzas look and taste amazing. Unfortunately I ordered the spaghetti carbonara which was full of fatty gristly ham. It ruined my meal. The restaurant is small and you can bring your own booze. My boyfriend had a pizza and I wish I'd gone for that too. It was a cheap meal though.

Just had the 12" Il Grillo Special. £9.90 for a superb base, all thin and crispy and tasty, with 3 different cheeses, toms, rocket and parma; hot and fresh and tasty, the best pizza I've had outside of Rome. From order to delivery was less than 15 minutes - OK, so we're less than half a mile from Il Grillo, but that's still pretty damn good.

We ordered the take away pizza last night and it was fabulous. I have yet to find good pizza in London, but this place is great. The dough and toppings were excellent. I've also had some of their pastries there on a different visit. They were also excellent.

Excellent take away service and tasty Italian pizza made fresh by Italian hands - not your usual Domino's pizza or Kebab shop rubbish.Fresh ingredients make the difference - the pizza was delicious.Other freshly-made food also available for take away or to eat-in (Lasagne, etc.), with a mouthwatering selection in the display cabinet.Decent coffee as well, and is open all-day long (also for breakfast). Had delicious cappuccino and fresh croissant!Genuine and friendly service - was like any of the best bar-pizza cafés that you can find in Italy!

We had our lunch here today. We eventually decided on pizza Romana and 2 types of bruschetta. It came ready in no time and was delicious. Authentic thin crust pizza which I love. It tasted fresh and homemade. Very reasonably priced and great choice. Just wish I lived in the area and was able to get takeaway from here.
