Melisi in Hillingdon

It was ok - not a huge choice on menu. They dont alter any of the items to cater to the individual, what you see on the menu is what you get. Food came out very quickly steam hot didmt seem like it was freshly cooked maybe heated up. Dessert was tasty. Overall it was ok - woudlnt go back tbh.

The pizza was really testy. Service was also good . Atmosphere is fine it just restaurant abit small & for some reason the windows were steamed up.

Employees are enthusiastic and attentive Food tastes good

Tried this place for the first time and for an Italian food lover, I really loved their their starters and also their Ricotta Their Pizza although I was hoping a bit more to it though But none the less, please give this place a try as for vegetarians.. there are ample of options and the Staff is lovely

Very nice pizza place on Ruislip. Nice enviroment even if we went there just to grab a take away pizza. Nice choice of pizza, some of them changes seasonally, you can also get some starters and dessert to end your dinner ina sqeet way. Since it is quite busy i highly reccomand to book your table if you want to eat in, there are always a lot of people and they also work with take aways (uber eat, deliveroo ecc..). Open only for dinner during the week, lunch and dinner on weekends

Favourite Italian in Ruislip. The food is amazing! Can’t recommend enough! Family friendly for children too. Look forward to going again soon.

Really lovely food. Popular so you need to book.

One of the favourites on my list. We Have been there just once, but we will come back with pleasure for sure. The restaurant is beautiful, clean and tidy, the staff friendly and calm, the food excellent, we got two different pizzas and were great, the raspberry sorbet is delicious. I have recommended to some Of my friends. Well done team!

I didn't book but they fitted me in. The Olives were fabulous, the main course was outstanding. Friendly service. A lovely atmosphere. We will eat here the next time we visit Ruislip.

Great friendly place to go to with my wife for a really good pizza.

Great food, good service. Lovely little Indepentant restaurant.

I had a birthday at this location! The pleasant atmosphere, the same service!!! What I didn't like was the slightly peppery price! So it was mandatory for a person to order 3 positions at an indicative price of 30 pounds. So the first course was some appetizers, the 2nd course was pasta, pizza, etc. and the 3rd course was dessert! We asked to combine 2 people for a menu, because it is impossible for one person to eat a pizza plus appetizer and dessert! They didn't allow us!! So most of them ordered a few pizzas, ate a maximum of half of it, and threw the rest away, which I don't think is ok! In the picture there is something with mushrooms from the appetizers, that is, from the first position!!

Lovely atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff but disappointing food on a recent visit. Melisi had been one of my favourite Italian restaurants but on my birthday dinner I was let down by the food quality. I made my usual order - Pasta con salsiccia e tartufo, but this time it was extremely bland and didn't taste like it used to at all. My partner also ordered a pizza for his main dish and sadly this lacked flavour. It's upsetting that the food was such a disappointment because this is a really cute and cosy restaurant with good portions so it makes it worth the price. However after my recent visit I'm not sure I'll visit again.

best pizza in Ruislip and Eastcote. the staff is great too please expand the seating area .... we just need a bit more room between the tables.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere, excellent food, friendly staff, service attentive without being intrusive. Our second visit and not disappointed.

It is so good. A great surprise.

Everytime I go here the pizza is always superb. The staff are lovely and surroundings comfortable and clean. Service is always extremely good

Seems expensive for delivery via Uber eats but the food is excellent.

Nice decor with an authentic Italian blue patterned tiles and feel inside. Great stone baked pizza. You know the pizza is good when you don't leave the crusts! Nice portion sizes too. My comments would be that the aubergine parmigiana wasn't very hot when it came out and the focaccia isnt focaccia, its more like pizza bread with pesto. Would come back for pizza though👍🏼

A great little gem of a find. The pizza was The Best I've had for years!!

Fantastic service and pasta! Definitely recomend it

Diavola pizza is to die for. So is the parmigiana starter or the king prawn starter.

Delicious food, wonderful staff and great atmosphere

We were looking for shelter from the rain and for a nice meal in Ruislip on this wintery July day and we luckily passed by this lovely pizzeria napoletana. Staff is nice and professional and the place is small and cozy with a standard modern décor. Very good and definitely not a standard selection of starters, pasta and pizza. We shared 2 different pizzas (succulenta and pizzichino). The quality of the ingredients is excellent and the dough is light, well hydrated and well kneaded. Unfortunately, in my personal opinion, there's a lack of beer choice (only 330ml bottle of moretti and peroni/nastro), pizzas had to stay in the oven maybe a few extra seconds and the whole menu is a bit overpriced. Not big deals tbh since both pizzas were very good and the atmosphere was nice and cozy. A Few details away from perfection 😁 Strongly recommend!

Really good freshly cooked food with great side salads. Nice staff and good value.

Love the food at Melisi. A local restaurant at Ruislip with authentic Italian flavours and the staff is the cream on the cake.

Amazing food, we where sitting next to pizza oven so a bit warm tbh but overall felt like we were in Sicily ! Loved it

Food amazing, staff wonderful. I will be back

Excellent food but do not order home delivey as uber eat riders will not deliver your order. Furthermore uber eat will not answer your call. Better to get your order in peson if you dont want to loose your money.

The pizza is so fresh and tasty. The restaurant is clean. My mum ordered the Ragu pasta which we didn’t realise is made so the pasta is very ‘ al dente’ or harder than what I would consider to be al dente . We politely asked the team if it could be cooked more . After they pointed out that the menu says it is normally cooked this way they happily cooked it more despite it being our error. I would recommend this restaurant.

Good pizza, really close to Napolitan one,the only down thing is that (maybe not always)the tomato sauce was a bit too sour, but overall price/quality really good 👍.

Good Italian pizza, lovely atmosphere and staff members.

Superb experience. Ticks every Box. Friendly staff, excellent pizza and pasta, good quality kids menu and overall good value. Very impressed 👏 👌

Recommend Napoli pizza and Parmigiana

Authentic Italian food, tasted soo good! They even have vegan options!!

Tasty food, nice atmosphere - definitely recommended.

First time for all of us here, thoroughly enjoyed it

My favourite Pizza restaurant in the area. Being from the Italian border I am used to Italian pizza with nice and traditional ingredients, which is exactly what you will get at Melisi, no pineapple nonsense there.

Delicious authentic Italian food, the pizzas hit the spot and the tiramisu is just perfect. Lots of vegan and vegetarian options too Always great customer service and a lovely atmosphere. Looking forward to the next visit already!

The food was lovely, although not being able to order off the kids menu is absolutely ridiculous. I explained that I have had a gastric sleeve surgery and physically cannot eat a full portion and that it was not about the money, but about a waste of food. Either way, food was good so I would definitely recommend.

Excellent quality food and service

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this casual and intimate Italian restaurant that exceeded all my expectations. The food at Melisi was simply outstanding, I opted for the truffle pasta, which was nothing short of heavenly. The rich and creamy sauce was infused with the decadent flavor of truffles, and the pasta itself was cooked to the perfect al dente texture. Each bite was a true delight, and I savored every last forkful. And as if that wasn't enough, I finished my meal with a mouthwatering tiramisu that was the perfect end to a perfect meal. The dessert was light, fluffy, and just the right amount of sweet, with a delicate balance of flavors that left me feeling satisfied and content. But what really made my dining experience at Melisi stand out was the exceptional service. The staff was friendly, attentive, and went out of their way to ensure that I had everything I needed throughout the meal. Overall, I highly recommend Melisi to anyone looking for an exceptional Italian dining experience. From the delicious food to the exceptional service, this restaurant truly delivers on all fronts. I can't wait to come back and try more of their amazing dishes!

The staff were really inflexible, refused to move us away from our assigned table (we were seated right next to the open kitchen) even though there were other tables available - they would've had to reconfigure them a bit but they didn't want to. It was downhill from there - they didn't want to customise the pasta dish (I wanted to add prawns which were in a different dish), they didn't have chilli flakes for the pizza, and the pasta was dry and tasteless. Service was definitely NOT with a smile and overall it was a bad experience. Any of the above issues could've been rectified with a more hospitable and friendly staff but this team was just really unwelcoming and inflexible. They probably need a bit of customer service training. Glad I could give Melisi one star because my friend really enjoyed her pizza.

Outstanding food. The best Italian food I have had. Highly recommended.

Nice little Italian in Ruislip. There arent lots of tables so make sure you book. Pizzas are authentic. Service could bring a little better but overall we had a nice evening here

Nice cosy place, authentic feel

Great proper Italian pizza with good ingredients. Pasta also very tasty. Service is also good.

Incredible pizza, done the authentic Neapolitan way (I know I’ve been to Naples ;). Very friendly service

The food was nice and the lady who served us was lovely and very friendly. Something that surprised me was pizza with Nutella as dessert. It was quite a good one 👍🏻

A great place to have a pre-birthday meal! Small and intimate with really great food and service. Plenty of vegetarian and vegan options which is really good for me, the veg pizza with vegan mozzarella was delicious! Only thing I would add is maybe add another vegan dessert other than sorbet, that’s just personal preference though and we were too full to even have dessert!! Thank you Melisi!

Some of the best pasta I've had!

Great proper Italian food yum! If only we still had a branch in Northwood

Fantastic Pizza, really enjoyed it, and my companion enjoyed the pasta very much!!

Visited in November 2022 for the first time and was not disappointed. The food was so delicious and so well made. Service was also friendly. Will absolutely visit again :)

Melisi is the best, I can't emphasise this enough. The texture and taste of the pizza dough is heavenly. The pasta is also great. My go-to is a Diavola pizza, Arrabiata pasta and the plain Ciabatta, which has rosemary and salt on it, followed by the Tiramisu. I can't eat all that so have the rest for lunch the next day! I have loved everything I've tried from the menu so you can't go wrong. It's a nice place to eat in too, the staff are always kind and good fun too.

Top notch neopolitan pizza. One of my favourite local pizzerias. The quality is outstanding and the prices are reasonable. Starters are less impressive but it doesn't matter when the pizzas themselves are so good. Quite a small place can be difficult to get a table at times. Recommend eating in over takeaway/delivery

Freshly cooked Pizzas and Pasta. Cooked to perfection. Great little restaurant and great service and value for money. Well done. Keep up the good work. 👌 👌 👏 👏

Amazing customer service and the food was to die for!

Friendly efficient service. Great tasting fresh authentic food

Amazing pasta, amazing pizza! Aubgerine parmigiana is so tasty as well as the garlic bread. So good!

All three dishes we had to share were delicious and top quality. Great service too. Will hopefully be back soon to try more.

Very good arrabiata and excellent pizza (good dough)

Great food for eating in and takeout. Can't really complain about anything!

Lovely authentic Italian food - and the prices aren't too bad!

A great family run restaurant that offers delicious Napoli pizzas baked fresh using fresh ingredients. The staff is courteous and efficient too.

Their pizza are just delicious. I thought I was in Rome. The service was excellent. Can't wait to visit again

The food here is incredible. Authentic and fresh ingredients. Starters, Mains and dessert were all delicious. Cannot wait to come back to try more on the menu.

HONEST REVIEW - Vegetarian pizza that was advertised with a topping was missing that. Called to explain. Instead of an apology I got arguments saying the menu online is wrong. Didn't even offer pizza sauce for the excessive crust that is very dry. Mushroom saffron pasta too little sauce, very bland. I had to add capers, mushrooms (because there were like 2 in the whole dish) rocket and my own hard cheese. It's an incomplete dish. Poor customer service, average food at high prices.

Wow amazing friendly staff providing a great service and the food was amazing.

Great food, great service and great price. Highly recommended.

The food was excellent!! The service and prices not so much

Amazing pizza. Must be eaten there. Good sour dough pizza isn't as good delivery.

My pizza was DELICIOUS! The restaurant was very clean & service was great!

Brownie points for using luxury ingredients like saffron and truffles, and a gold star for using them well. Divinely tasty.

Nice pizza place on Ruislip high street. Pizzas are good quality and staff is friendly. recommended

Great food, nice atmosphere and certainly value for money. We will certainly come back. Only criticism which is a small one is that the plates move cos of tiled tables. Other than that, 100% review.

Delicious pizza with excellent service. We sat outside with our dog. Lovely end to a lovely night walking around Ruislip Lido. Thank you!

Good sized portions but very expensive .

Good pizza, nice staff. We ape t a really good evening

Nice venue but all the food was over-powered with garlic. I mean a serious amount of garlic. We won't be coming back unfortunately

Our favourite local place to eat! Pizzas are always fantastic and the staff are all attentive and friendly. They have a great range of vegan options which is great for when we need a local place for family meals! We loved them so much that we actually got a take away from here for our lockdown wedding meal last spring! Thanks so much guys! P.s. Please start delivering through deliveroo again!

I've been here a couple of times and the food and service has been consistently great. Exactly what I'm looking for in a restaurant. Well done Melisi!

Lovely, friendly authentic Italian run restaurant. Andrea served us and we got chatting about Italy and places to go visit. The Parmigiana went down so well we didn't get a picture, followed by Pasta all' Ortolana and the Tartufata. Good size portions that we ended up with takeaway! Great service and yummy food, would highly recommend.

I am in love with this place. The food is absolutely delicious and the services is impeccable. Very nice and professional staff and the waiting time is very short. During the summer they also have a lovely terrace. Do give it a try.

I visit Melisi regularly and the quality of food & customer service never disappoints. Delicious pasta & pizza, friendly service and decent prices. Thank you!

Defo worth it, simplistic food that tastes amazing. Feel like I am in Italy for a night.

Had an amazing meal here. Really enjoyed the pasta dish I had and enjoyed the authentic atmosphere.

Went for the first time recently and definitely enjoyed it. The starters were probably a litter bit more enjoyable then the mains but overall enjoyed our first time. The service was great and friendly and all very timely. Price wise was probably a tad more expensive then I was expecting but may be down to all the prices increase in general. Definitely recommend

Being of Italian descent, I’m always hesitant when eating at Italian restaurants, as I like to think that I know how well the food is cooked. This place however did not disappoint. Our pasta dishes were spot on. The ambience was nice and welcoming, and the service we got from Cristina was excellent too!

Visited with a friend. Had heard great things about Melisi but never had a chance to visit until yesterday. Amazing service, great food and excellent atmosphere. Would definitely come back again.

Some of the best Italian food I’ve had in London. I ended up having the garlic bread, pizza, pasta and dessert - it was that good. The service was really friendly and quick too. Will definitely return and recommend!

This place is lovely. The atmosphere is great and the food is delicious. I've been here a few times and it never disappoints. I normally order the mushroom and spinach ravioli which is the best ravioli I've ever tasted. The restaurant is small so you should book.

If you're looking for good quality and proper Neapolitan pizza, Melisi is your place! Very nice staff too. Highly recommended!

The pizzas here are always excellent and service is good too.

Very nice restaurant with wonderful staff and very good food .

Unclassifiable, it was a big disappointment.

Been wanted to visit this place for a long time now and it was definitely worth the wait. Nice and cosy restaurant and delicious food. will definitely be back.

Food was very good and friendly service

Amazing pasta and really friendly staff

Small restaurant with excellent pizza, relaxed atmosphere and attentive staff. Would happily recommend.
