We are not big fans of chain restaurants but this one was excellent. Brilliant service by really friendly and efficient waiter. Pizzas were great too. We also felt safe with the covid measures in place. Well done the staff.

Normalmente no dejo reseñas de cadenas de restaurantes, pero el personal aquí fue encantador. Mi amigo y yo estuvimos en nuestra última noche en Glasgow y decidimos ir a cenar. El personal era servicial, la comida era excelente y el ambiente era relajado. ¡No puedes pedir mucho más!

Este es nuestro pre-cine de restaurante habitual. La comida es deliciosa con una amplia variedad de platos para todos los paladares. Recomiendo encarecidamente la ensalada de atún Nicoise, ya que es la ensalada más sabrosa y satisfactoria que he probado. Mi esposo jura por la pizza Diabolo. El Tiramisú es debido. El único inconveniente es que a menudo hace un poco de frío con el aire acondicionado encendido con frecuencia, de ahí mis razones para otorgarle 4 estrellas en lugar de 5. La comida y el servicio compensan el clima más fresco.

Con los recientes cierres de restaurantes anunciados, pensé que era aún más importante destacar una excelente experiencia en este restaurante. En la pandemia actual me sentí seguro durante toda la experiencia. Incluso ofreció nuestra elección de mesas. Pedimos las bolas de masa que eran preciosas y dos pizzas, creo que se llamaban Romana, que llegaron calientes y frescas. La camarera y quien creo que era el supervisor fueron fabulosos. Se cometió un pequeño error en el pedido y el personal no pudo haber sido mejor. La única sugerencia que podría tener es que el aire acondicionado estaba un poco alto, pero había sido un día cálido. Es posible que se haya añadido algo de música de fondo a la experiencia, pero creo que es una preferencia personal. No estoy seguro de si se permitió durante el covid para evitar voces fuertes. Definitivamente volveré

Pizza Express is reliable and pleasant. They are very good at responding to the market and they put new things on the menu to keep you coming back.

Este fue nuestro último lanzamiento de dados para esta rama. Nos encanta la pizza express, pero algo no está bien en esta sucursal. Pedimos 2 pizzas de queso y una pizza Fiorentina. Lo peor absoluto. Los niños ni siquiera comieron la pizza, solo pizza descuidada y poco cocinada. Simplemente no es lo suficientemente bueno.

Popped in after the toddler dash. It was busy but nothing too much trouble. My son ate so well. Dough balls and his favourite cucumber and tomatoes on the side. The pizza was good quality and he loved his ice lolly and babycinno. I would really recommend the carbonara pizza. The dough is delightfully thin and big portion that helped fuel my half marathon on Sunday. Jack, thank you for humouring my son and for being a great waiter. Nothing was too much trouble despite the pace we say you go at. That made mama son time extra special so I could relax.

Pizza Express es una de las favoritas de la familia, ya que siempre ofrece sabor, precio y ambiente. Todos los que entras tienen el mejor olor y atienden todo.

Visité una pizza previa a la cerveza con un cupón. Aunque el personal no pudo ingresar el código correctamente, el Gerente se llevó el 33% de la factura. Se ordenó una pizza y se solicitó que estuviera libre de pimientos. Llegó con pimientos verdes y el personal estaba dispuesto a reemplazarlo, pero después de esperar 20 minutos, opté por eliminarlo poco a poco. La indigestión siguió. La pizza estaba fría en unos minutos y se servía en un plato frío. La cantidad estaba bien y terminé todo. En general, fue una pizza cara a 30 para 2 de nosotros. Lamentablemente no volveré debido a los costos excesivos.

We have visited a lot of Pizza Express restaurants across the country; it's usually our go-to place when we're on a business trip as the food is generally good and the service is always excellent. This one however didn't really live up to the usual standards. It was really quiet but we still waited over 15 minutes for someone to come and take our food order. The pizzas weren't up to standard either; my pizza had more bread than topping, with a good 2 inches around the edge that was purely dry pizza base. It was unappetising and bland; we left most of our food but nobody even asked us about that, nor did they offer a doggy bag for us to take it away so they obviously knew it wasn't up to scratch. I do like Pizza Express on the whole but I won't return to this one.

Como me pusieron en una dieta sin gluten, luché por conseguir una pizza. Pero, Pizza Express ha llenado ese vacío y ahora ha disfrutado de Pizza en Port Solent, el anuncio de Portsmouth hoy, en Glasgow. No hay aparcamiento y la estación de tren de Queens Street. El personal fue muy atento y se involucró con los clientes tan pronto como llegaron y durante la comida. WIFI gratuito y tarjetas de crédito / débito aceptadas. Entonces, mientras viajo por el país, esta es una cadena de restaurantes que va a obtener mi negocio. Ah, la pizza estaba muy bien cocinada y servida caliente. Cocineros bien hechos.

Visit here regularly with a friend for a quick lunch. Pizza is always nice but goes cold very quickly (heated plates may be best). One of the cooks is a little to generous with the black pepper seasoning so would be great to have less of that and the option to add ourselves. All in all great for a quick bite to eat.

Well - it really wasn't busy at all when we went in, but maybe it had been 'cos what followed was a bit like a Faulty Towers sketch. We'd already put in our drinks orders, and our starters & one of our party ordered cannelloni,to be told the last one had gone. She was very disappointed as she had her heart set on it, and was given the menu back for a re-think. The lasagne was then ordered in it's place and nothing was said to us by the waitress at the time, but there appeared to be a discussion going on with what appeared to be the manager, then he came over after this confab, and said the lasagne was now off the menu too - WTH???Surely we should've been told these items were no longer available BEFORE we'd put in our drinks order & menu choices , and then we could've decided to cut our losses and go elsewhere.

This is one of the many Pizza Express restaurants in Glasgow, conveniently situated not far from Queen Street station. If you know Pizza Express then you know what to expect from the menu. I started with the doughballs, which seldom disappoint, then pizza fiorentina, which is always tasty. I was pleased that the egg in the middle was cooked so that the yolk was still runny. At the moment they do a mini cheesecake with coffee which was very nice. Everything was served promptly and the staff were polite and efficient. What more do you need?

Decidimos probar su nuevo entrante Nduja Arancini, 4 grandes bolas de masa frita con sabor profundo sobre una cama de ensalada y sirve con un chapuzón pesto picantes - delicioso! Hijo optamos por una Ensalada Caesar y conseguí una generosa porción que me hubiese servido como plato principal. Seguimos con la pizza Pizza de pollo ad astra y Pollo forza después de tomar los consejos de la camarera, y ambas eran muy sabroso y la opción perfecta para añadir un poco de picante al día de un calor en invierno.

The restaurant also isn't very expensive with pizzas costing about £8 each and a safer a couple of pounds but they do offer great offers a lot so make sure you look out for them because they will save you a few pounds. Great overall place would definitely go back.

We found ourselves in Glasgow on match day, Scotland versus England at Hampden Park! Needless to say the town was seething, every pub was full to the gunwales - so we sought sanctuary in Pizza Express. We had a delicious meal that didn't break the bank - just what I would expect from this reputable, good quality chain. There was a special lunchtime offer - two courses for £9.95 - we had two between three of us and it was more than adequate. The ingredients were good quality and the whole meal had an artisanal feel.The staff were friendly and welcoming, quite happy to leave us to take our time with deciding what to order. We were particularly impressed with our waiter - Daniel - who was polite, charming and helpful.

The atmosphere was good with just the right amount of light. Once ordered our food was promptly delivered, hot and nicely presented. The meal was really good and tasty. We have always had a good meal at Pizza Express and this was no exception. We took our left overs for breakfast the next day. If ever I find myself in Glasgow I would most certainly pay a visit.

We booked for two here before a Wednesday lunchtime concert at the nearby Royal Concert Hall. We hadn’t eaten in a Pizza Express for years, but we’d previously bought Pizza Express pizzas in a supermarket after a day out, which included “2 for 1 on main courses” vouchers. The restaurant is very clean and airy; the chairs are comfortable though we had to switch tables for a lack of leg room at our first table – only an issue for taller people.We were met by the manager, Pauline, who was very friendly and helpful throughout. I chatted with another server as well, who was equally friendly and happy to talk. Reading other TA reviews, there does seem to be a problem with slow and/or inattentive service when the restaurant gets very busy, particularly at weekends when more staff are needed. However, over our lunch, when the ground floor (the restaurant also has an upstairs level) was about half full, service seemed fine for everyone and certainly for us. Pizza Express pizzas are standardised throughout the chain (and they’re much better than the pre-packaged version available in supermarkets and from the restaurants). In the past we’ve visited the Dean Street Pizza Express in London, which is also a fine international jazz club. The restaurants also promote pizza-making ‘occasions’ for all ages. The emphasis is on Italian-style pizzas, light and with limited toppings; don’t expect the American-style heavy-based pizzas favoured by most chains, which also tend to overload their pizzas with toppings. The original Classic pizzas are served with a softer base; the Romana style has a much crisper base, and also comes in a lighter version, the Leggera.We ordered a pre-starter of olives – this and a jug of tap water appeared within a few minutes and our mains arrived less than ten minutes after ordering. For us the restaurant did what it sets out to do, without any issue, so it gets a good 4 stars. Btw, there’s background music – not so loud as to make conversation difficult, and having music now seems the norm in most city centre restaurants.I noticed a TA review complaining that all the pizzas at Queens Street were served with parmesan cheese on top, which to me seems a misleading comment. Ours certainly weren’t, and the menu makes clear that a number of the pizzas include Gran Milano cheese (not parmesan), which it’s worth noting is made from unpasteurised milk - but of course customers can ask not to include it.My wife chose a Padana Pizza Romana (topped with goat’s cheese, mozzarella, tomato, caramelised onions, spinach, red onions and garlic oil). Not everyone seems to realise that Pizza Express has gone into partnership with Macmillan Cancer Support and pledged £2 million over four years, and 25p of the cost of every Padana pizza – romana or leggera - goes to Macmillan, a charity we’re committed to. And for info, 40 years ago the founder of Pizza Express, Peter Boizot, created the Pizza Veneziana and a percentage of the sale price of every Pizza Veneziana sold is donated to Venice in Peril, raising over £2m to help to preserve our favourite city.I prefer a softer pizza base and ordered a Classic La Reine (topped with prosciutto, black olives, mushroom, mozzarella and tomato). We shared a side of coleslaw. Both pizzas were lovely – light yet filling. We didn’t want to drink any alcohol before the concert, but I must say the wine list looks intriguing, and all wines by the glass can be ordered in 125 ml servings, which is always a good indicator. We had a happy and satisfying lunch.

Not much different to any other Pizza Express in the UK except the chef puts parmesan cheese on the pizza whether you want it or not. No Pizza Express in London would dare to do that due to dietary requirements.Good for a quick lunch, although the staff seem rather frazzled due to lack of people working there.

Went as family of four on a Tuesday night. Host, who I think was manager, was very nice. However waited 45 mins for any food, which isn't great. My wife ordered cannelloni, which was essentially a bowl of sauce and not much in the way of pasta. with an open kitchen, staff were on phones, eating while cooking and generally messing about with each other. One tip- when speaking to the public in a service industry job, eye contact is a must. Can confidently say I won't be eating here again.

We visited on a busy Wednesday night, and the place was actually turning customers away as it was so packed. Before starting on the negatives, I have to say the atmosphere is pleasant, the food is the standard quality one can expect in Pizza Express, and we would likely return (on a less busy night, anyway).However, I left quite unhappy due to the mistakes made during our visit. I ordered a mean-free pizza, but after waiting for a longer-than-average time due to the amount of customers in, I received a pizza with chicken on it. After having to follow a member of staff around to get their attention, they apologised and immediately ordered the correct pizza for me. Unfortunately this meant my partner was already finished with his meal by the time I received the correct order. Additionally, ordering a desert seemed impossible as the staff was running around and did not notice our attempts at getting their attention. The final nail in the coffin was the fact our receipt (which also took a long time to obtain from the busy staff) included 2 glasses of wine which were definitely not ours. Due to the rushed payment, we only noticed after the card was accepted, and the waitress ended up giving us some change - I wasn't even sure if it was the amount we were owed - in a hurry and rushed us out of the door.

Really enjoyed our meal and it wasn't too overly priced either! I had the antipasti and cannelloni and my husband had calamari and chicken pizza and all of it was really good, and service was super quick too!

Yesterday evening I and my family went to this establishment for a meal. The service and meal were ok; but the table we were given was close to the door and every time someone entered the establishment I was given a cold blast of the outside air.This resulted in me having to put on my Jacket and scarf while eating the meal.We would of stayed for dessert but by this time I and my father were so cold that we decided to pay the bill and leave.There is a hot vent for air over the door but for some reason this did not seem to be working.Yours sincerelyMr James Gallagher

The food was good as always, but the bad design of this restaurant meant the doors were all open for the whole time we were there. Nowhere for people to wait means they have to hang around in the doorway, which in December was freezing!We had booked, so we're seated when we arrived, but next time, I would ask to be seated downstairs as all of upstairs was freezing.We had to put our coats back on and couldn't wait to finish our food so we could leave.My hands and feet were like ice by the time we left.

We dropped by for pizzas in the evening but found it hard to get something we really liked. There were a few options for alcoholic drinks yet only 1 type of good beer. Quite a few types of pizzas yet none I could say I would definitely like. I settled for a chicken pizza which was good but really hot and this wasn't mentioned anywhere.Service was average but pricing was ok as we used a tastecard. Might drop by again if I'm around but won't go out of my way to eat here.

Went in on Saturday night just for two people got told by the host a blond older lady 45 min wait so we booked went out trepsed round Christmas market in the rain and decided to head back to pizza express sat on seat in door way waiting for table I said to my daughter that two table near window was vacant when we were in last time so we waited anther 15 mins oh and guess what the table that was vacant all along if she had sat us there in the beginning we could have been out and gone. There was also a 8 table that was vacant for ages she turned away lots of people think they need to learn how to turnover tables properly.Food was nice enough I did say the requeto peppers were very hot same blond lady she didn't give a jot just said meant to be hot. Will not be back stick to zizzis they are more organised.

Waited 10 mins for a table. When we got seated was quickly offered a drink then ordered food. Waited 45 mins for a pizza and pasta and the restaurant was freezing. When finished sat for nearly 30 mins to then have to ask for dessert menus then had to go find someone to take our order. The food was average, definitely not the warmest plated and most definitely the slowest service I have ever experienced. WOULD DEFINITELY NOT RETURN OR RECOMMEND TO ANYONE

Eaten at lots of Pizza Express restaurants and at this one a good few times . It is by far my least favourite. Food is consistent for the restaurant chain . What seems to let it down is the service . It's very slow and seemed a chore for some staff . I despair at restaurants not training staff to make sure no empty glasses , offer of tea, coffee, desserts. I like their food but but disappointed.

Pre cinema lunch with my boyfriend and the kids. The food was nice, tasty and came quickly. Thanks to Amanda our server who showed great patience with our kids being terribly picky. It gets 4 out of 5 as the restaurant was freezing and this is the second time its been like this which makes the food go cold extremely quickly. Sort the heating and it would be 5+

Life is a whole lot easier if one remains calm BUTSo there is no mistake during the following issue, I raised my voice to the staff, it's inexcusable highly embarrassing and regrettable.I ate at your Queens Street Glasgow restaurant today, and used the O2 priority app to get a main course at £5.When it came to the bill, I paid but noticed a charge for £1.60 for some type of upgrade?As I hadn't ordered an upgrade of any kind I queried it with the server, who told me it was in my terms and conditions. Having checked I couldn't find mention of it, so again queried it with the server, who called a colleague over to help.They (the collogue) peered at the Priority app on my phone and several times said “If you had read” to the point where I felt obliged to mention that having gained four degrees I can read and reckon I'm not too bad at it. The first server then interrupted to the effect that a degree meant nothing at Pizza Express, quite why she felt the need for the interjection remains a mystery.I said to her, “so you would read all the terms and conditions if you went for a meal? I guess somewhat predictably she answered yes, which given she had been unable to find the terms and conditions I asked for led me to suppose she was not telling the truth, merely seeking to play a kind of one up man-ship rather than deal with my query, it was it this point I raised my voice.A third member of staff then joined in from a distance, saying “we don't get paid minimum wage to be shouted at”Finally I was shown the terms and conditions on my phone and I left.Let me be very clear, it's not the matter of £1.60 at all, indeed I gave more to a begger earlier in the day.It's about not being treated as incompetent because I didn't scroll through two sets of terms and conditions before ordering a meal and queried something I didn't recognise on my bill. Of note maybe is that studies indicate that just 3% of the population read terms and conditions, given which your member of staff is quite remarkable.It's about staff not playing the one up man ship game, rather than seeing the customers point of view. It's about having the skill set to correct a customer without trying their up most to make the customer feel foolish?It's regrettable that any business employs folk on minimum wage in modern times, but surely it could invest in some training along the lines of 'how to explain to a customer they are mistaken, but not a clown?'

We needed a meal before a concert. We chose this Pizza Express & hoped the name was correct! It was. Our drinks, then food order (for 4) were taken efficiently. The drinks arrived in a couple of minutes and the meals came along in good time. The food was very good - everyone liked their food. Staff were quick to check everything was okay and to bring the bill.

I usually enjoy coming to Pizza Express and the quick customer service, sadly I never saw this here, I was part of a group of 6, the waitress came over and we asked to have separate bills, she said this was no problem and give us some time to look over the menu, she came back and took our drinks order and starters, they took 30 minutes to get to us which I find unusual, then we waited an additional 45 minutes for our mains, we were the only people in the restaurant at the time, a quiet Monday afternoon, we noticed our waitress taking her lunch break so her manager had taken over our table for her, which is no problem but no apology for the delay on our food, our original waitress served the second lot of drinks we asked for whilst still chewing her lunch which we found very unprofessional. After all this, we did get one dessert for the table, she stood for 5 minutes with this in her hand talking to her colleagues. Awaiting for our bills to come over, she initially promised the separate bills we didn't get these as she 'wasn't able to do this', the reason was is because her male colleague told her not too. All together over two hours to have our food, my friend asked the waitress for our bills quickly as we were in a rush, the waitress took over 10 minutes to separate the bills, bearing in mind we were the only ones in the restaurant at this point. Once she managed to get our bills she ran over with the card machine ready to take our money for the payments, no problems with the food but working in hospitality myself her actions were very unprofessional and I will not be returning to this restaurant.

Ate here recently with my children and was dissapointed with the food. There was hardly any chicken in my pollo pesto and my son said his pizza was the smallest he had ever seen, as we had a train to catch (and no-one bothered to ask) we couldn't send the food back. Kids meals here are really poor value when you look at how small each of these "3 courses" is,

Difficile trovare una pizza decente fuori dai confini invece... poi la gentilezza di una cameriera che si è anche sforzata di parlare un buon italiano

Visited on a Saturday early evening when the restaurant was busy and were seated downstairs. Great range of vegetarian options! We shared olives, then both had Leggera pizza, my Giardiniera was delicious and my husband enjoyed the American Hottest! We had a bottle of pinot grigio blush, which was really nice and had sorbet, coffee and baileys afterwards. Service was great, waitresses were friendly and we were not rushed at all. Only negatives were that it was a bit too cold, due to air con and toilets could be better.

Food was usual PE quality but on a sunday night the service was really quite slow which was disappointing. AND they had run out of coleslaw... that was a huge disappointment. Will be back though.

We visited here mainly because my partner had a voucher for a free bottle of wine. We found the staff very welcoming and polite however the food was quite average. There was a large choice on the menu of pizzas and pasta with an additional section which I chose a starter from (risotto) which looked better than it tasted. Both of our pizzas could have been warmer but were decent quality.

Worst munchie box ever! 3 small pieces of chicken pakora, 4 doughy pieces of vegetable pakora, a handful of chips, 4 soggy onion rings,a handful of donner meat...some of which was hard. Won't be using this place again.

¿Recuerdas cuando Pizza Hut solía ser divertido y relajado y una buena pizza? Ya no. Great Western Road Hut, ¿dónde estamos? . . no se ve ni se sienta por 5 minutos, aunque está muerto, no hay menú para niños, no hay sonrisas educadas y al menos 3 mesas sucias acaban de salir. El gerente claramente tiene problemas y ya no permite la mitad y la mitad de las pizzas (a pesar de que está pagando 20 por una pizza 'Compartiendo' Cheesy Bites. Vergüenza y una broma en la misma medida. Nunca volveré.
