La Rustica in Thurrock

The pizza shop has been sold. Don't expect the same quality as before. I ordered a bruschetta and instead of sundry tomatoes I receive normal tomatoes. the pizza was uncooked and sweet taste. No refund for it

I'm pizza lover and I'm eating Italian food in many places. This guys doing proper Italian pizza, delicious and freshly made. I'm living about 30 min away from this place but if I would eat pizza again that's the place I will come back. Folly recommended to pizza lovers

10/10 pizza ! Highly recommend. Possibly the best in the area. Meat feast is my personal favourite 👌New owner is taking it to the next level 🍕🤩

I paid for additional pineapple which wasn't included. overall I felt the quality of the pizza wasn't as good as I have had in the past.

Ordered large pizzas for delivery. Pepperoni, black olives and red onions.. Delivered personally by the owner. Cannot remember a better pizza ever. Only one problem I ordered a large and it was LAARRRGGGEEE must remember next time to order a medium.

Absolutely disgusting!!!! I used to order from this place and they had a very good pizza but this time it was absolutely disgusting. The dough was rough, nothing like it was used to. Definitely not ordering from this place again!!!

Best pizza in Grays, under new owners and old

My wife bought 2 pizzas couple of days ago.She just explained where exactly is the place and today I go and get 2 large pizzas. About the service: Very kind,helpful and smile people are working there. About the pizza:This is proper Italian style pizza,not like PizzaHut,Domino or other American style pizza what if you not get ketchup the taste is proper rubbish. They using proper products and they know how to make you Italian Pizza! Always freshly cooked! Forgot to make a picture,anyway we eat them all. Definitely will back to them soon. They also are lovely people. Everything there is looking clean and tidy. I’m so happy we found this Thank you so much,will see you very soon :)

I tried the pizza for the first time and it was great, every bite is delicious

One of the best pizza I ever had it’s absolutely delicious Will definitely recommend you to try

I am very disappointed, this restaurant has been sold and is not like it was before. I am using an old order to be able to review this as I ordered via phone instead. The pizza is not hand made like before and the pizza and garlic bread were not fully cooked. It is a shame that this has been sold as before it was perfect. Be aware when you order from here.

From best pizza in town to worst pizza ever. I can still taste the yeast from the dough. Will think twice before ordering again.

Ordered last week and this was a one of the Best Pizza places in Thurrock. Not sure what happened, but the Pizza is not as nice anymore - really flat, hard base - used to be a really smooth, fluffy texture. Such a shame.

absolutely disgusted with the service was lied to for over an hour and 15 mins saying food was on its way after several more phone calls and talking to the driver we received it after 2 hours and 25 minutes and the food was freezing cold and stuck to the pizza box ! I will never be ordering from these people again and I expect a refund.

Nice and delivery driver is LOVELY. food hot!!!

The pizza seemed very oily, not the best for £22

Best pizza in town. I highly recommend it.

wow.... love big tasty pizzas !!!

Great food! Thoroughly enjoyed it

Ordered a few times. Always on time, always fresh and easily the best pizza around. Great dough and ingredients, good spice levels and great flavours!

Hands down the best pizza outside of Italy. Second time we got it and very pleased first time wasn’t an amazing fluke. Will 100% be ordering again and again

Very good. For first time ordered and satisfied already.

Excellent pizza as always. Delivery always on time and so friendly. Would definitely recommend

Ordered from here every time I pop into Thurrock and I have to say it’s the best Pizza I’ve had in a long time. Authentic ingredients. Delicious dough and nothing like the chains. A cut above the rest.

First time I've used them, won't be the last

I am a loyal customer of La rustica and ordering pizza from them regularly. Always fresh and delicious 😋 Always fast delivery and great service! Highly recommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

First time ordering food arrived quickly and tasted great would definitely recommend

Great service and great food. Thoroughly recommend.

Super pizza. Fast delivery in a busy Saturday afternoon. Best pizza I eat in UK. Very good desert. I strongly recommend.

Once again the pizza arrived much faster than expected and was cooked perfectly.

Amazing place had it first time and this is truely a Real Stone Baked pizza they were just melting in our mouth.. Me & my Mrs wish the owners the very best of luck and keep making these lovley pizza and keep feeding us these hand made amazing pizza.

The guys convinced me about the taste and savour and I bought a pizza napoletana . They have right , the taste is delicious, was made quickly .

The best pizza around! Recommend!!

First time ordering. Was delivered really quick, friendly driver and amazing pizza. Will definitely be ordering again.

Amazing pizza, so fresh. Like being in Italy!

Once again a perfect pizza, delivery was earlier than the app showed and the pizza was exceptional.

Delivery was fast and the pizza was once again amazing

Wanted to try this after seeing it appear on Deliveroo, finally got round to it and wasn’t disappointed, pizza was massive and covered with toppings, the Ndjuja is so good and the cheese pull spans the length of your person 😂 Will be coming back

Ordered from here multiple times, never disappointed, this is the best pizza place in town . Great staff and the delivery guys great …

Lovely pizza place, 2nd time we ordered from here. Fresh dough toppings.

Amazing pizza. 3rd time ordering from them and never disappointed. Very good service, amazing delivery time, always earlier than what shown on the app which is perfect for last minute ordering, especially when you have a hungry toddler🫣, and the delivery guy is always very friendly. For sure the only restaurant I will get pizza from now on!

By far the tastiest pizza i ever eaten. The pizza base was cooked perfectly and i would say it was hand made not mass produced like yoir high street pizza shops. Can taste it was cooked in a pizza oven as well, tastes charcoal like. Beautiful tasty base. I ordered a capricicassio. Just stunning. Arrrived on time and very pleasant delivery driver who struggled to find my flats location as the numbers are scattered. Will definitely be ordeing again from here. Top class pizza.

Best pizza, great customer service, would definitely recommend.

This is a really nice pizza place with freshly made dough and great ingredients. The pizzas themselves arrived hot and fresh. They were very delicious and of a much better quality than chain pizzerias. I would definitely recommend trying this place out as they clearly care about the quality and taste of their pizza.

Best pizza around by a long shot. I even accidentally over paid the driver with cash and he rang me to say he will be bringing it back. Our favourite pizzas and dips. 💯

Once again a fantastic pizza delivered hot and fresh out of the oven. Wouldn’t order from anywhere else after finding this place always 10/10

Best pizza around! The dough is amazing.

Once again a very nice pizza cooked perfectly and arrived very hot. The driver was very polite and overall another great experience

Again this was an amazing pizza, this is the only place I will order from as it always arrives hot and very quickly.

The only place I will order from handmade pizzas fresh out of the oven, the spicy mayonnaise is amazing too

It arrived quickly and the driver was very polite. The pizza was 10/10 like it usually is, can’t recommend them enough

The best pizza in Essex. Top tier quality, fresh ingredients and superb service.

Great service, fast delivery & beautiful pizzas!

First class service with a smile, food is of high quality and the atmosphere is inviting. Pleasure to have you as my local place.

One of the best pizzas of had my new go to place

What a shame, ordered a 18ich pizza only half of it was cooked towards the centre the cheese was chewy and crust uncooked

Have ordered from here in the past and once again it was fantastic. The food was fresh and piping hot, it arrived very quickly and the deliver driver was very polite.

I wanted to try this Pizzeria after all those reviews but I was very disappointed after finding a piece of curly hair under my Pepperoni. I believe two men are working there, both with a beard and it is so disgusting that they cannot even contain their facial hair which ended up on my pizza! My wife binned the pizza immediately. Waste of money!!

Their pizzas are sooo good! Hot and fresh, hasn’t disappointed us yet. Would definitely recommend.

The pizza was amazing, very tasty and good quality

Every order is just 10/10. Love it!

Once again a delicious pizza. Plenty of toppings. Piping hot and the delivery chap was really lovely. Won't use anyone else now.

Hands doesn’t he best pizza I’ve had in a long time. Cooked in a pizza oven and hand stretched, the delivery driver was really nice too wishing a happy new year

Nothing special, expensive for what it is, not enough toppings on the pizza, I think because of the cheese they are using its greasy, doesn't taste like real Italian pizza even with the wood firing, just cannot beat Calzonetti Pizza for quality and price, I would say it's the best by far in this area try out yourself and you will see.

5 star food, 5 star delivery , 5 star customer service!

Pizza was ok overall. I ordered the ham and mushroom. However The mushroom were from a tin so not fresh… and when you pay £15 for a pizza you expect fresh ingredients. Just makes you question how fresh the other ingredients are?!

Absolutely lovely pizza, authentic taste, made with care, will order again in the future. Delivery guy is a delight.

I can't get enough of this pizza!! Always 5 star food, service and delivery!!

Beautiful, Italian style pizza. Tastes lovely and fresh and plenty of toppings. Will certainly order again.

The most delicious pizza! You just need to try it!

Very nice food. I enjoyed the experience.

The best pizza I've tried in the whole of the uk

Excellent and really good pizza better than pizza express!

Best pizza I’ve ever had! I had the truffle mushroom with added ham. Very generous with toppings and a delicious traditional thin base

Great pizza, will definitely order again!

Very lovely pizza. We did not have an italian pizza place here before so this is a really nice addition!

Food was excellent. Best pizza I have had. Will definitely be ordering again!

Best pizza in the area by miles. Authentic Neapolitan pizza with fresh and flavourful ingredients. Well done, keep it up!

Very good ! Better than Pizza Express ! Good value for money! 👍

I dont have words how delicious is this pizza. Definetly best in Essex! Well done guys

Qaulity of service and food maintained, definitely a faourite of mine.

The pizza was great, but the desert ( tiramisu cake) was delivered frozen.

I’m so glad I came across this place. I love Italian food and real authentic pizza and this is exactly what this is! Nothing like a greasy kebab shop pizza at all. Amazing dough cooked in a proper pizza oven with the flavour that comes with it and amazing fresh toppings. The cheese is unreal. The garlic bread is incredible too. My new favourite place and I’m so happy to get pizza like this outside of London :) Delivery driver is very friendly too!

Second time and excellent again. Best Pizza we have had. Great flavour and lovely and hot. Really enjoyable, we use again for sure.

Really great Pizza. Highly recommend. Best Pizza I've had in a long time. Will definitely order from here again!

1st visit and we are hooked already. Great tasting pizzas 🍕 made with premium ingredients. The owner is clearly very passionate about his business. Will definitely come again. Garlic Bread with cheese is to die for👌🏻

After reading reviews on Uber google and a number of others i ordered 12" meat feast pizza 🍕🍕 Was not disappointed picked it up and was fresh cooked lots of topping and also can tell base was fresh and home made. Got to say best pizza in area by a mile and also probably best i have ever had. Keep it up 👏😊

pizza came wasnt hot you could tell it was,made earlier. From the time that i placed the order till i received my order was around 75 minutes. The pizza was delicious and i can say it's one of the best that i had in essex .

Food was beautiful, will definitely be ordering again!!

Brilliant food full of flavour genuine italian food

Great food! Ordered the 18” pepperoni pizza and the garlic butter pizza. Was a very speedy delivery and the food was very tasty. Would definitely recommend.

Probably the most authentic pizza available in Grays, and really reasonably priced too.
