Good food and excellent service

On vacation and found an unexpected gem in Shoreditch. Alam Rasel has opened a great pizza place here. Don’t pass it up if you’re in the area! He took such good care of us even though we got the pizzas to go. The “Hot American” was so good!

Great service and good italian food to Reasonably prices. Pizza and main courses abt £12.

Excellent food experience, pizza was good and host even better (Alain)

The lasagne was delicious and very filling. The flavours are amazing and would definitely visit again.

Their food is great. I always order gym food the vegetables are fresh and the salmon is cooked perfectly as always.

Coustomar service was and food very good

The best place to try Italian 🇮🇹 pizza 🍕 Service, food, delivery are high and all of those for the good price. Recommend

Great restaurant with good quality food and reasonable price. Highly recommend it !!!

Highly recommend this place. We ordered spaghetti alla bolognese, classic tuna pizza, and tiramisu. The food WAS GREAT. It was perfectly cooked with fresh ingredients, and the dessert was my favourite. The staff was nice and attentive and offered us great recommendations. Most importantly, the price was reasonable.

Visiting from Canada. Had a great meal and drinks. Pasta was fresh and filling. The restaurant was neat, tidy, VERY clean. Our host (whose name I forgot) was extremely kind and quite helpful when I couldn't read the Italian on the menu. Can't wait to return!

Wonderful people who start the restaurant. I know the chef from Italy roma. He is star chef, I was his restaurant in Rome and had his food , wonderful delicious food he made for me. And I am sure he will do the same in brick lane. His name is Dipu chef, from Rome Italy.

They were extremely accommodating! Came in late on a Sunday night and they sent us away with a lovely meal!

i'd never recomend you to have food from here. old butcher di*khead stafff..... i think they never learned how to respect their customers...

Do not miss this hidden gem on brick lane, a great establishment y'all!!

this place is on ubereats under Hulk protein Meals. i just ate a bowl a sugar and it was disgusting. The tasty calorie maintenance salmon was minimal flakes of salmon and rice SOAKED in sugar. I have a giant sweet tooth but this was disgusting. i have no words. robbery and lies

Best authentic Italian pizza on brick lane for sure!

Terrible avoid at all costs very rude n offensive

The most mid pizza you’ll eat. Closer to a chicken shop pizza than Italian style. Cheap cheese used, you can tell straight away. Very disappointing

Miejsce warte odwiedzenia. Nigdy nie bylem tu wcześniej, restauracja jest świetna, a obsługa na najwyższy poziomie w Poznaniu. Dzięki!

Good venue, good service and food is always fresh, punctual and tastes good.

Best pizza in Brick Lane, highly recommend it.

“The Kitchen?” Nope, it should be called “The Takeaway” Visited late last night and it looked like a kitchen equipment sales shop with a pizza oven at the very back! I didn’t realise it was only a takeaway but with 8 vegan pizzas to choose from and hotel a couple of doors down, it was a no-brainer. Vegan Menu: The vegan options were Margherita, Hawaiian, Meat Feast, Pepperoni, Sausage Mix, Chicken Mix, Vegetarian and Sausage. £9.95 to £11.95 I chose the Sausage Mix £11.95 which has a tomato sauce base, grated vegan mozzarella, slices of vegan sausage, thinly sliced red onion, sliced roasted red and green peppers, jalapeños and virgin olive oil. The chef hand stretched the dough and cooked it in the pizza oven which took about 4 minutes. It was served piping hot with a pre-bought garlic and herb dip. The base a nice mix of crispiness and softness, the vegan cheese was amazing and it tasted really nice. If I’m to be critical, the topping slipped off when I tried to eat it because all of the cheese went under the toppings (add half underneath and half on top guys). I also only found one slice of jalapeño so so it lost any heat I’d hoped for too.

I ordered margarita pizza and supli bolognese through Deliveroo and both were so goood

Amazing food and amazing incredible treatment from all the staff we will repeat :)

Great service and people are polite and very affordable, the pizza is really good, don't judge the book the the covers...

One of the worst restaurant I have ever seen in brick lane.They are taking too much time to serve the food.And their behaviour like they are uneducated guys all of them.Their food conditions are super bad in brick lane.They are cheating about the discount.

This is the worst pizza shop i have ever eaten from. The price is kept so high, and then give it in half of price to attact the people to buy pizzas And this kitchen has got different names and I got tricked many time having the same pizza again and again. Honestly, I lost £4.9. Very Very bad experience!!

Horrible staff and S**t not food. Don't buy from them

Great pizza for a great price! Honestly one of the best pizzas I've had in a long time.

Ordered on deliveroo. Almost nothing on the pizza. Missing sauce. Box not properly closed so all was crushed. Seems like they go by 3 different names on deliveroo. I definitely wouldn't recommend to anyone.

I got the wrong pizza 2x ordered a la buona CucIna special and got a pizza with rocket on it

This is the worst pizza I have ever eaten. The price is so high, half of the pizza bread is not applied tomato sauce. And this kitchen has got different names and I got tricked getting the same pizza again and again. Honestly, worst £3 not £20. Very bad experience!!

It is not italian definitely, too expensive, in one place more than 10 restaurants, just the names different the stuff is the same. I dont like at all. Very bad experience...

The customer service was horrible, they were rude, I phoned them to complain about a product being overpriced, ordered a coke (not specified in their website) they sent me a stupid can for £3 !!! I called they hang up on me the first time saying wrong shop then I called back again the guy was extremely rude never seen that in my life , for no reason, would not recommend buying from here!

Very low quality, the carbonara was super dry no meat and small portion.

It is what it is. It was alright.

Amazing food. One of the best pizzas i have ever had !

Great authentic italian style pizza with the addition of have great service, food came out piping hot and absolutely delicious. Great place to order from and I will definitely be having from here again!

I really loved the food, probably one of the best places I visited whilst at brick lane. I would recommend you to bring your family and friends as they will have a good time

Found This great restaurant right in the middle of Brick Lane! Loved the Pizza and the Prices! Recommend to all✅

The food was very nice. I also had very good customer service.

Great experience for the Family! Loved the Meat Feast pizza And the Veggie Pasta. Definitely coming back!

Very delicious food. Would recommend to go there 100% lovely customer service and the food is a 10/10. Would recommend this place to everyone!

I really loved your food it’s very tasty and affordable, I enjoyed my time there

Great service and Great taste! Definitely recommend the gourmet burgers and Meat Feast pizza 🍕 Definitely coming back!

Great food and great Customer service! Loved their veggie pizza and pasta 🍝 Definitely recommending to others!

Terrible food, very bad customer service, absolutely not recommending! Avoid

Literally absolutely sad about my experience i spent £30 on deliveroo for two small portions of pasta and feel robbed. Its disgusting knowing that it was worth £7.50 at most meaning it should have cost me £15 tops and whats worse is my food was discounted by £20 like how? I want someone to explain this to me.

My food was cold not even warm just cold, the calzone didn’t look like it had ever seen an oven was wet, soggy, cold and just not edible. AVOID

No! Don’t! Absolutely terrible pizza (I’d love to know where the stock photos they use came from ‘cause that sure as s**t weren’t taken in house)! Customer service is worse than their food. Avoid like a builders armpit! And therein lies your problem...rather than take on board a bad review you just assume that we didn't have a delivery in Shoreditch last week, you'd rather assume it was a "fake review" - priceless.

Avoid at all costs, food is pretty terrible and pricing is a scam. EDIT IN RESPONSE TO REPLY: I placed an order with you some weeks ago, one I won't soon forget.

A restaurant who commit fraud and don't have good pizza. Avoid. Awful awfu people

Scam. They advertise their prices as 50% off on deliveroo but then double up the prices so you never get a real discount. Avoid at all costs.

The best pizza Fast delivery Perfectly cooked

Not stone baked pizza or any mozzarella.

straight rob in deliveroo they advertise 50% and then they double up the prices so in reality is no discount, terrible practice, avoid

Traditional Authentic Italian pizzeria. Serving wood fired pizza . Fantastic quality and delicious food.

When I called to say items missing they refused to assist me. I had to go through complaints ruined an evening when one person had no food awful rude service deserve to do badly

Splendid food. Order a takeaway the other night. I was blown away with the taste. Authentic flavours. Will be back 😏

Ordered double pepperoni. Got bit of pepperoni on each slice. Over priced

Me quedé absolutamente sorprendido cuando ordené aEl menú vegano a través de Deliveroo, que llegó mi hamburguesa vegetariana con moho visible en el pan. Estoy conmocionado y horrorizado de que quien haya preparado mi hamburguesa no se haya dado cuenta de esto y lo haya enviado felizmente: estoy disgustado.

Fantastic Quality wood fired pizza .

No podría poner menos de una estrella porque no es posible.La pizza estaba muy mal.Estaba crudo y no sentí ningún sabor, la salsa de tomate estaba muy mala y la mozzarella muy pobre.Soy de Italia y cuando veo "la cucina" creo que podría ser una pizza "auténtica".Puedo decir caro y pobre.

This was the “special marguerita” which should include basil and parmesan cheese, where is the basil ? Poor taste and I paid 12 pounds for poor cheese and tomate sauce. Very disappointed.

A quiet hidden Italian, the food has nice flavour, the prices are reasonable and the staff always friendly. It is not going to be the best Italian food in London, maybe not even East London, but always a wonderful evening and even better when you go with good company.

Ordered Meat Feast pizza and steak with potatoes(main) and calamari and garlic bread with mozzarella(starter) for two people. Nice food. Good portion. Staff helpful as well. Would go again.

Very delicious food & amazing service. 100% recommend

Delicious and mouth watering pizza with Italian flavour :)

Very Tasty food for a reasonable price and very friendly and helpful staff. My favourite place in brick Lane..

awesome, mouth watering pizza served here.

Lovely Italian restaurant brick lane. Enjoyed our great meal last night.

Fantastic pizzeria in Bricklane.

Lovely Italian restaurant in shoreditch brick lane area. Enjoyed our great meal last night.

Last night I visited this restaurant with my family. It was a fantastic dinner with freshly baked in Wood fired open Oven. My GF was really pleased and enjoyed special in LaCucina . Specially i recommend to try their pizza called ItaliAn Hot.

Very nice restaurant, all the food was very tasty. nice and friendly staff. We loved our visit and we will definitely come back again.

This is a lie this place doesn’t exist here at 2:35 am and there is no such place

yes, La Cucina serving very delicious pizza and fresh pasta .visited last week to grab yummy pizza and went back after 3days for takeout pizza again.

One of the very few downsides of moving out of London is not being able to visit this wonderful restaurant on a regular basis any more. Italian is my favourite cuisin and La Cucina, tucked away behind a narrow entrance, half-way along Brick Lane, is the best Italian restaurant I have visited, outside of Italy itself. The menu has a good, if slightly limited range, they will cater for vegetarians, vegans and any other diet (if you give them warning) and all the food is wonderfully cooked. They have a great range of wines and all of their staff are knowledgable, friendly and helpful. The welcome is warm and the service attentive but not "in your face". Even better, their prices are very reasonable, especially for London. You can enjoy a superb meal and a bottle of excellent wine for well under £30 a head. Highly recommended, you will not be disappointed.

Bad pizza! We ordered this for delivery based on the score on deliveroo and also the enticing picture of a delicious pizza on their menu. The pizzas were really bad. For £12 per pizza you would expect proper chicken, aka sliced or shredded, not cubes of processed chicken and the cheese was really poor. A quick google search showed us that single photo that they use on deliveroo is not from this restaurant and therefore the pizzas are totally different. Not impressed! Avoid.

Very good pizzas ;-) we tried a spicy vegetarian calzone and a napoli ;-) really delicious! We will be back ;-)

Seems like this place has changed name and owner. You can find the new one as „Pure La Cucina“ on google, I also reviewed there. High prices, bad quality. Ordered Pasta Rigatoni Matriciana, instead of bacon they used sth else, it was tasteless. Also the waiter absolutely ignored us, instead he kept staring at his phone and wasn’t kind or friendly at all. Also they don’t serve beer, wine or any other alcohol there, which was totally fine for us, but their official pictures show a wide selection of wine. After we told them that we’re not willing to pay over 30£ for what we got the waiter started becoming arrogant and „kindly offered“ us a small discount. In the end we paid around 20£ just to get out of there (still an absolute waste of money). To the new owner: Please don’t claim that we haven’t been in your restaurant as you did with previous reviewers, that’s just plain unprofessional.

DON'T GO THERE! Service was bad, food was terrible. Anyone following a basic recipe should be able to make better food. Pasta was overcooked, drowning in oil and bland. Official pictures show fresh ingredients and a selection of wine - don't kid yourself, those are probably from the previous owner. Criticism was met with impoliteness and arrogance.

While we enjoyed excellent service in a clean location, our food was inauthentic and overpriced. The spaghetti had too much chili powder and the pizza was simply not good. Would not recommend—you can find better food in the area for less.

OH my god. Pleasantly surprised! The carbonara I got was delicious, and the garlic bread starter was large and cheesy.

Absolutely dreadful. Food cold and mashed when it Somers to your door. I don’t call 14 pieces of pepperoni a double pepperoni pizza. Avoid don’t wast your money here.

Not great. I went to this place as it was right next to my hotel. I spent a total of £19.90 on a can of diet coke, the American hot pizza, and some calamari rings. The food itself took only a few minutes to cook, for obvious reasons - the pizza was barely cooked through, drenched in chilli sauce, with tough meat. The calamari rings smelled fishy with a heavy battering and I didn't enjoy a single bite of anything. I ate one slice. I was so disappointed with my food that I attempted to take it back. I don't like bothering restaurant staff at the most urgent of times but I couldn't stomach any more. I was very apologetic and polite, insisting that I didn't mean to be rude but the food simply wasn't for me. The gentleman I spoke to didn't understand why I didn't enjoy it, to where he went through the menu with me to insist that this is what I'd asked for. I requested a partial refund, but was instead offered the use of their bin. Almost £20 down and an empty stomach.

We ordered via deliveroo, got a beef steak, paid 17£ and didn't eat at all. The meat was so tough that we couldn't chew it. Also, we asked for veal scalopine, but they brought us chicken instead. Disappointed overall. At least deliveroo refunded us.

It’s located in the heart of Bricklane , near the Premier inn huB hotel. We were there 3 times for our group dinner . They provided great deal and delicious pizza and delicious tonnerelli carbonara. Really surprised to see that there were 9 delivery was take takeout food within 30 minutes. I think their food quality and services makes this restaurant great.“ believe it is one the best Italian traditional classic pizzeria in Bricklane.”

Ordered food pizza was good but small (should specify how big it is online) I spent almost 7 dollars on calamari and they gave me 6 pieces and it was not eatable. It was terrible not cooked properly.

Fantastic quality pizzeria and Italian restaurant in the heart of Bricklane.

The pizza we ordered was very small, unpalatable and rubbish in general. It was also severely overpriced. Dont order from them pls ;)

Terrible food, staff with a bad attitude. Never even seen Italian.
