I went to the restaurant and asked to use the toilet while I'm waiting for my friends to have dinner but the lady manager rudely said not for public use. Is it something that I have to pay first for the food then I can use? Disappointing experience

Will never be coming back! I tried to use my student discount as I'm a uni student but when I went onto unidays no offer was coming up under pizza express. I showed the staff members and showed him my uni ID but he went on to accuse me of lying and trying to use student discount when I've already graduated. I most definitely have no graduated. We pointed out my unidays is valid until 2027 but he continued to accuse me of lying. We were very annoyed and jusy payed without using my discount and as we were leaving the store the staff member continued to accuse me of lying. Absolutely disgusted by this customer service. If I could give 0 stars I would

We were served and looked after by Anna Maria. She was very warm and welcoming and we felt we were treated like royalty. Anna paid particular attention to our needs and was there as needed. We have been there three times recently and intend to be back again and again. The food was very tasty and good value. Well done team Pizza Express.

Late evening meal, with no expectations but to order an appetizer and drink. Ended up having a pizza, dough balls, and drinks. The waiter, Gyorkem, suggested a pizza, perfect shared size for 2, and dough balls. Great food and drink with a great atmosphere. Needed some ice for our room, and the staff went of their way to provide us with plenty. Definitely would recommend this eatery for a great, friendly, and pleasant night out on the town.

The pizza was good, but the waitress was awful and discriminated us. She was an old lady from Italy. I was myself born and raised in Italy, Italian is my first language and I am muslim . The waitress heard my pronunciation, when I told her I was Italian, she told me “an Italian dressed as a foreigner though” and added that to be Italian you should belong to the culture, being born and raised there wasn’t enough. Along the lines saying I couldn’t say I was Italian wearing a hijab. When I asked her what did she mean as I could be an Italian revert for example she felt uncomfortable and told me I was right. This behavior is unacceptable and closed minded people like this should be trained better or not left dealing with customers. I never experienced something like this in London and this is shameful. I couldn’t enjoy my food as she ruined our dinner with her comments. I hope this can be looked at properly, to make sure it doesn’t happen again.

It's not fair for me to comment the food here as I was not lucky enough to try them. However, the service, especially attitude of staff here, is really frustrating when you are told that they were really very busy and you may stay standing there at the entrance for 15 minutes or more to wait for their arrangement of seats if you wish to (while the restaurant was only half full as seen by us).

The manager Anna Maria was extremely hospitable, attentive and caring. She welcomed us and took great of us. The food was great and what you expect from Pizza Express. Location is really great especially in the hot summer as you can sit outside and get a great breeze from Regents canal. We told Anna Maria that it was our 4 year old's birthday so they very kindly sang him happy birthday and got him a small cake with candle despite being very busy. Highly recommend. To be honest we used to be regulars at this restaurant but the previous management were not as welcoming/friendly so put us off. We asked for a specialist dietary requirement and serving staff explained everything very clearly and honestly to us. Really glad we did out son's birthday here. Thank you all.

Unfortunately most of the staff were unfriendly and rude in responding to customers, except for one who apologized for what her colleagues did! Even with my children they would get angry at normal children's behavior!! Even when we wanted to add soda she stopped us and said I am not the one who serves your table!!! This is actually my last time in this place, even though I live close to the site! I hope you choose friendly staff and I paid an amount when I ordered and it is not a small amount!

This is my second visit to this place, with my first being two years ago. If you're a pizza lover, this spot is definitely for you, and you can skip the rest of my review. However, if you're considering ordering something else, like the lasagna, I strongly advise against it. The lasagna I received was the worst I've ever had—it resembled a thick soup with just one layer of pasta. I'm not sure why they even call it lasagna. Please avoid it until they address this issue. As for the service, it was disappointingly slow. It took over 29 minutes to get our food, which included the lasagna soup and a Leggera Vegan Giardiniera pizza.

I am generally not keen on Italian chains but we were staying at the nearby Premier Inn (very expensive) and needed somewhere close for a family of eight ranging from 6 to nearly 70. The food was very good (expensive bottled beer) and the highlight was the excellent lady from Tuscany who served us. She was very helpful in arranging a change to one of the menu dishes and very good with our grandsons. Thank you very much, it was a great end to our day.

I accidentally ordered a gluten free pizza and tried to cancel it straight away, and was told that they could not change my order because it was after three minutes- even though I tried to cancel immediately. There was no flexibility and I lost £20 on a basic margarita pizza for the sake of a minute. Will not be ordering here again.

Food up to usual Pizza Express standards, no complaints there and kept the kids happy. Staff were not the best, misses off items for the kids, then compained loudly and rudely to each other in Italian about the tip I left (assumng that customers dont undertsnfd Itaiilan I guess) With the level of service received they were lucky to get a tip at all. With chains the fodd is the food, so its the service that makes the difference, and this was poor and rude.

Unfortunately, we were fooled and we were blamed. We paid the amount of food with a tip added to it without our knowledge or approval for the tip. When we objected, they told us to pay again and we will return the amount of the first bill to your account. To date, the amount has not been returned. They fooled us. Unfortunately, they paid us the amount of food twice with a tip added to it. We are tourists and they took us. Bad idea about this restaurant. It turns out there was a waiter wearing glasses who charged us. Then the rest of us joined in and promised us that they would return the money so that we would pay a new bill again, but unfortunately it was a plan against us.

The food was slow, not very warm, pizza overcooked and greasy. But the most cringeable part of the visit was the staff begging customers to leave positive reviews. Also, a member of the team, beard and shaved head, snarled at me on a few occasions when he walked past me. He had a real issue with customers and is totally in the wrong job.

Our first meal in the UK and it didn’t disappoint. Great service, atmosphere, and the food was incredible. Didn’t expect options of a garlic-infused or red pepper flake-infused olive oil to add to the deliciousness of the pizza. Not showing in pics are the appetizers we had - delicious dough balls, bruschetta, and the star of the show - garlic mushrooms. Thankfully our hotel is close as we may be dropping by again for another meal before we head back home. Highly recommend!

I’ve been coming here for lunch for nearly five years due to its proximity to work and a corporate tie-up, but it’s consistently disappointing. The pasta is mediocre, often just plain boiled with barely any sauce, and the staff almost always gets my order wrong. I’ve paid for extras that never made it to my meal, and takeaways often reveal mistakes too late to fix. Even with self-ordering kiosks to streamline the process, errors persist. My colleagues and I are fed up with the subpar food and service, especially given the high prices.

Worst dining experience I have ever had in London. I’ll start with the service. They sat the five of us at a crammed four person table. Our server barely approached the table, didn’t check on our drinks, or how the food was. We also had to grab them for the bill. Plenty of attitude as well. Now the food. Very awful. It’s been over an hour and I still have the rotten taste of that eggs benedict in my mouth. Why was there potato in it? My friend had the bagel sandwich and complained that it was microwaved and soggy. Also, they didn’t have milkshakes for breakfast. Never go here. I want a refund as well, so please feel free to contact me Frankie or Benny. This is the first review of several.
