Avoid at all cost. Its gone wayyyy downhill. seems like a cost-cutting exercise across the board. There are much better Pizza places around.

My daughter ordered via Uber eats, order taken, over an hour later she received a simple message “order cancelled”. She checked the website and la favorita deliver closed. No apology - nothing. Dreadful customer service, by both parties. You cannot contact Uber eats - there is no option. Just dreadful disregard by both companies - someone some where in both has failed. The fact there is no apology shows the utter disregard that both have for their customers. My advise don’t use either - they have no care or consideration for you - you are simply a number.

Garbage, absolute garbage. Ordered a Calzone for collection, came in an oblong box which I thought was weird to start with, anyway opened it up and it’s folded over like a pastie, I have never in my life have been served a pizza in such a way, so I gave it a chance and tried it only to be further disappointed from what was in front of me needless to say it ended up in the bin. Definitely won’t be going there again

Have twice ordered delivery from La Favorita and there won’t be a third time. Food was cold both times and when texted to say it was on its way it took over 35mins to delivery less than one mile away. Could’ve walked it quicker. Delivery service is awful and I’d recommend you look elsewhere Alex

I ordered 3 Margaritas last night. Called up after 60 minutes to check where my order was, the guy on the phone said that the expected waiting time was 120minutes but as the kitchen was quiet he would have prepared them asap. Called to follow up after half and hours and the pizzas weren't ready yet. Got them after 2 hours and a half, completely cold and the driver even got our address wrong. There's clearly a huge lack of communication between the guy at the front desk and the kitchen. How can you make your customers wait for 2 hours to get 3 pizza? Silly!! I've been ordering and coming to your restaurant hundreds of times and this makes me seriously reconsider all my thoughts about you.An advice: teach your employees to make it right as customers come first!!

If you like food that takes 90mins to be delivered, garlic bread sticking to the top of the box, lukewarm food to the point of inedible made worse by the sauce leaking out the container then this is the place for you. I paid almost £40-(£37 really) and while what was edible was good somehow that makes the experience worse.

Este es mi tercer pedido con La Favorita Delivered; no los uso a menudo porque son bastante caros.Recibí un mensaje de texto para decir que mi pedido estaba en camino, llamé 25 minutos después porque aún no había llegado. Se dijo que salió de la tienda solo 10 minutos antes. El pedido llegó unos 5 minutos más tarde.Habiendo pedido antes, sabía que no cortan sus pizzas, aparentemente para evitar que pierdan calor. Les pedí específicamente que cortaran mi pizza, lo cual no hicieron y todavía estaba fría como una piedra cuando la recibí.También pedí calamares, que también estaban fríos y bastante empapados.Realmente bastante decepcionante. La única característica de canje fue que tenía puntos de recompensa por valor de 5 en mi pedido.

I am fed up of spending too much money on orders which are always wrong and missing items. When i try contact this company to get a refund for the items or "additional ingredients" which weren't present they say " we can't do anything about it" terrible service of which now owe us several orders worth of missing items with no refund offered. Very poor service.

I used to love this pizza and I was a regular when they had the take away at Blackhall. I was really looking forward to these pizzas but when I picked them up they were cold and the cheese very salty. I get the feeling that the staff although just back are not very motivated and lacked any leadership. There was a guy at the front door of the shop on his phone with ear buds in who really wasn’t keen to move to allow 2 meters. When I came back for pick up the same guy with ear buds was making up pizza boxes. No rush to give me my pizzas. Really slovenly staff who need a rocket. Get a grip and have the pride you used to. Would not recommend. Give this place and the staff more that 2 meters give them a miss!!

Recently ordered a delivery, which came in the quoted time, and overall was of an excellent standard - pizzas were hot and tasty.Only problem was that in ordering one of the set pizza flavours, I made some additions and subtractions (just changing vegan cheese for regular, and adding two other toppings) but when it turned up, I'd ONLY got the amendments - all the other toppings that were on the standard flavour were missing.I found a contact email address somewhere online and was responded to immediately. Had to give them an extra nudge a few days later as had heard nothing more, and they offered a full refund of the incorrect pizza, which has already come through.So, just wanted to review them to say that yes, things do go wrong, but in my case they made up for it.I can highly recommend their GF pizza bases, hence why I would order again.

I called and requested an email address to complain about the two atrocious pizzas I received. They said they could not provide an email address (why not?) but I would receive a call back to discuss this further. They didn't ring back. I have actually eaten here before and quite enjoyed it. However this was just about the worst pizza I've ever eaten, and I would urge others not to waste their money.

Pedí en una noche mientras disfruto de la comida en el restaurante. Mi apartamento está a 3 minutos en coche del restaurante y estuvo a punto de entrega por menos de 40 minutos, no hace falta decir que la comida estaba fría. Me quejé inmediatamente por teléfono y fueron agradables y comprensivos, me dijeron que podía obtener un reembolso y que la atención al cliente estaría en contacto en las próximas 72 horas. Nadie contactó, así que envié un correo electrónico dos veces, sin respuesta, así que llamé nuevamente. Luego recibí un correo electrónico de Luca de atención al cliente de Vittoria que básicamente me llamó mentiroso y le respondí por correo electrónico, no obtuve respuesta.

Ordered 6 pizzas on a Friday night from here.All of them overcooked, but one of them was particularly badly burnt. The pizzas arrived so late that we ate what we could rather then try and send them back and wait ages for them to send out again. I requested a refund, initially on the whole order but then only for the very badly burnt one, which I felt was reasonable (it was genuinely like trying to eat charcoal). Took 2 days to respond and point blank refuse to give a refund (insisted on offering me a voucher, which is of no use to me as I will never be ordering from here again). Staff are rude and unhelpful. Would strongly recommend against ordering from here.

We have ordered take away pizza from La Favorita delivered twice before. At the time we used to eat dairy products and choose them amongst others as their pizza is more similar to the real Italian pizza, accepting the over pricing and all... but last time, as a newly- vegan people, we couldn’t believe that to have vegan cheese we had to pay £2 as if it was an extra, and not an alternative to dairy mozzarella.

Pedimos la pizza haggis como un tratamiento de noche Burns. Honestamente, fue una de las peores pizzas que he comido: una base completamente poco hecha, una salsa de tomate genérica, queso y haggis que se lanzaron al azar. Obtendrías mejores resultados con una pizza barata comprada en una tienda. Me quejé y me enviaron un reemplazo que era exactamente igual al anterior. Fue francamente incomible y se fue directamente en el cubo. Dejé un comentario en su página de Facebook y me dijeron que presentara una queja en línea, lo cual hice. Aún no he escuchado sobre eso (hace más de una semana), por lo tanto, he dejado varios comentarios en Facebook tratando de perseguir esto y me han dicho que volverían a llamarme. Su última respuesta fue hace 5 días. Como alguien que ha disfrutado de La Favorita durante años, tanto para llevar como para el restaurante en Leith Walk (compré a mis padres un cupón de 50 libras para el restaurante como regalo de Navidad), esto deja un sabor muy desagradable en la boca hasta el punto donde Ahora no volvería por un simple principio.

Food delivered an hour after they messaged to say it was on the way. Yip was Stone cold. Ice cream nearly totally defrosted. My calazone was missing parmaham and Parmesan, wrong soft drinks which my daughter scored as she doesn't normally get fizzy drink so wee treat for her! I called to complain staff where rude and disbelieving. They did send out the missing parmaham and Parmesan and a couple of ice creams as a gesture, but a bit late as I had eaten it all before they came back. Its a shame as the pizza is a really good, but ordering is a bit of a hit or miss! Sort it out and be amazing again!

I still can’t get over this awful experience. Over the space of 3 hours, we received the incorrect order to the incorrect hotel (there are two Principal hotels in Edinburgh, we did put the full address) When it eventually appeared, it was cold, the wrong pizza and our chicken was missing. We called to advise of this - after a debate with the staff they eventually agreed to send another.

Three items were missing from my order this evening. I phoned to ask for the money for the items to be credited to my card. It took ten minutes plus to get through. I was told they had realised the items were missing and that they were about to be delivered ... I said I would prefer a refund ....especially since one was a salad and I had already made another one. I was told no can do. Another 10mins later the doorbell rang ...two of the three items were delivered. This “take away” set me back over £50. What appalling customer service. Avoid at all costs.

Nearly 3 hours for food to be delivered. No apology until the third phone call. Ordered at 8.24 food delivered at 11.13 pm. Asked for my money back when I called at 11pm, which for some reason surprised them. apparently it has to be sent to customer care for "possibly" a refund. Disgusting service. Who wants to eat at 11.30. My friends had to leave with no food as their last bus home was at 11.30. Emailed with complaint no reply as yet. The decent thing would be to refund as no one ate their food. I won't be ordering from their again and will certainly be telling my friends to be vary of spending a lot of money with the potential for no dinner and no real genuine apology . I gave them the benefit of the doubt when they said their was "printer error" but 3 hours is just quite frankly terrible and I should have been offered my money back as a matter of decency. AVOID.

After a trip to Italy and trying many take away pizzas and restaurants. La Favorita nails an authentic Italian experience. Highly recommended. I was also blown away when I heard of how much they support social causes and last winter delivered pizzas to hostels/B&B;'s and rough sleepers across Edinburgh so not only do they serve up the best Italian food (especially pizza) they also have a social conscience.

Too long wait, 40 mins even though it's only 1 mile away. Pizza was not cut, but also the whole topping had to be prepared by us at home when it was delivered, they were in a separate bag (and I don't mean the sauces). I think the worst thing was that the pizza was cold. We did not expect this lack of quality from la Favorita. The price was too high for the quality.

I've been a customer for years now, and usually rave about La Favorita's pizzas... however, our order arrived late and there was no apology for this. I do appreciate it was a busy Saturday night, but the pizza was disappointing to say the least. It was cold and soggy. The chicken starter which came with a BBQ dip was disgusting and had to be binned after biting in and discovering the meat inside was actually raw. This is unacceptable and a health hazard.

After waiting over an 1hr 20mins the delivery driver appeared, when I questioned where he'd been he advised the chef never turned up at morningside so the food order was prepared and delivered from Leith... I received no phone call to advise of the situation or given the opportunity to cancel my order. When I received the food it was stone cold and chewy, not a pleasant meal for my partner and I.

Last night was having a movie night with my young daughter. Had ordered the kids pizza deal for her. They delivered the ice cream, drink and my pizza but not hers! Very disappointed 5 year old. Delivery driver looked frustrated and apologised about said he will be back in 10 minutes. Sure enough he was back with her pizza and a second helping of ice cream and a drink. Good apology. It's a shame as the pizzas are fantastic, they must have some operational issues with staff. Hopefully they can sort them out and be great again.

If pizza was supposed to be liquid than I'd recommend this place. The pizza came literally soggy, no sauce and all the toppings slipped off. Tasteless, unsatisfactory and completely not worth the £13 they charged. Avoid.

I've ordered a lot from these guys. 7 times and 5 times they've delivered the wrong thing. They even put meat on a vegetarian pizza. Just don't bother, it's not worth it.

This place has the option to use a vegan pizza, great for vegans or lactose intolerants. We loved it the base and crust was really good, toppings were fresh and the vegan cheese was delicious.

I had pizza Calzone , was good. Wife had pasta with espargus , artichoke , mushrooms & truffle oil. Portion was huge but a bit repetitive. Starters were delicious , we had bruschetta and small rice balls. Price was average.

Mala, malísima la atención al cliente. Solo me respondían con un si o no a las preguntas y en ningún momento me asesoraron o mejor dicho: explicaron como funcionaba la selección de pizzas. Una pizza de 4 ingredientes 19 libras??cuando la más cara (las ya diseñadas) de la carta era de 14???...la única repuesta que obtuve es que estaba añadiendo 4 ingredientes!whattt????pero si las ya diseñadas tienen 6 ingredientes...acabe escogiendo una de las que tenían en carta y pagado 12 libras...NO al abuso en los restaurantes!

A typical Scottish Italian restaurant - beautifully finished, abundantly staffed, not inexpensive but well worth a visit. The usual selection of pizzas and pastas are on offer but the quality of the food - wow! Superb pizza. One of the best I've ever had anywhere. Highly recommended.

Got some spicy salami pizza... One slice for £7.50 to be exact. I was floored that they were charging so much. Where you can go to Dhillons and get an entire pizza for £1. Good, but not £7.50 good.

I ordered the fire and smoke pizza (vegetarian) which was delicious, especially the smoked mozzarella on it. If you're like me and are staying in a hotel and don't have cutlery to hand, make sure you get them to cut it for you. A great touch that they deliver until 3.

We got a takeaway from here. We ordered online which was quick and easy. I like thst they send you a text to advise when it will arrive. It arrived quickly and was piping hot. It was very tasty and I love that it was stone baked. It is very reasonably priced compared to other pizza takeaways. My only problem is that they don't cut the pizzas for you. We got the biggest pizza so it was quite an inconvenience to cut as it didn't quite fit on our kitchen worktop and we don't have a pizza cutter. It would be nice if they could cut it for you.

Very disappointing. Undercooked pizza, bland pasta with almost no sauce. Only nice thing was the ice cream. Felt like a waste of money

Being a Leither, Im a big fan of the la favourita chain. Even more so as their pizzas and pasta are gluten free and taste fab. The parma ham pizza is my fave.

Oh the food is always so good! I do need to call then to order as their website doesn't seem to recognise my address as somewhere they deliver or tries to have another branch deliver to me despite me being about 3 mins away.

After hearing that they have refurbished I thought I would give them a try again. I wish I hadn't. I wasted a lot of money on floppy, soggy pizza and cardboard.

It used to be our favourite pizza in Edinburgh. Used to.... Over the last few months we were very disappointment with the quality. We either received cold pizza, half-rotten rocket in the bag or some toppings were missing.

Ordered two pizzas and some sides. Pizzas were a bit cold on arrival which was a shame. However the sides were the real problem.

I have been eating La Favorita's pizzas for many years and the were wonderful, until they opened their takeaway. Disgusting supermarket-quality pizzas - thick undercooked dough, delivered cold, for around £12 per pizza. Never again!

Pizza was cold and chewy. Not very good experience. We chose collect ourselves option-pizza was done in 1 minute. We live 4-5 minutes from restaurant. So seems if you want to get warm pizza-you need to live next door to restaurant. Could be some option to choose collection time.

Prese 3 pizze da 14'', pagate circa 12 sterline ciascuna e alla fine ci siamo ritrovati con 3 pizze da 10'' una "ricamata" (con un buco in mezzo) e di qualità media.

We regularly get gluten free pizza from here. It's great! We do always ask for it to be extra crispy as first time it was a we bit soft. Best gluten free pizza in Edinburgh in our opinion.

Terrible service! Even worse food! Lady on the counter needs to sort her attitude out and because we asked questions about what we were ordering she gave us the old haggis that looked like it had been in the warmer for 8 hours

Friendly service but slow probably due to a very slow kitchen. Clearly understaffed. We ordered the burger that had little taste ,and the chips were cold, the carbonara that were ok, the spaghetti n’duja that tasted ok too but had at best 1/2 teaspoon of n’duja meat - the waiter reassured me this was how the dish was supposed to be which was disappointing. I was offered a free starter to make up which was a kind gesture but I declined as we already had to wait 40 minutes for our food to arrive to begin with and I was not prepared to wait anymore - so overall this was a poor experience. The visit to the toilets just reinforced the feeling the whole place is not well managed or looked after as the toilets were dirty, smelly and grimy. Won’t go back and certainly won’t advise anyone else to visit

Where do I begin. Restaurant freezing - I mean so cold the waiting staff were wearing parkas! I kid you not. Service was appalling. After 50 minutes we had drinks and no food. Tables were sending back food and there were obvious arguments between waiting staff and kitchen staff. When we asked how long our food would be we got a shrug in place of an answer. Hungry grandchildren and fear that we would never actually get food we left and went to Pizza Express. A warm restaurant with excellent staff... and more importantly food! What a disgrace of a restaurant Toni Macaroni is. A word of apology and explanation would have helped but the staff could obviously not be bothered. To sum up my experience - disinterested staff, freezing cold (seriously you need to take a blanket!), a truly awful experience. My advice DO NOT GO HERE ... EVER! 1 star is too much but I can't give zero.

Myself & my friend and 9month old baby were in for breakfast on Monday 9th of March. We were served by FLAVIO ... what can I say his service was amazing like in a 5 star restaurant. He was so polite and well mannered something you don’t get in many places nowadays. We will definitely be back.
