Rudy's Pizza Napoletana - Albert Dock in Liverpool

Came in for a takeaway and was greeted by friendly staff. Thanks especially to Jordan and Beth for taking my order :)

A divine act of pizza making is occurring here

Arrived at a busy time on a Wednesday evening, the service was excellent, the (manager?) was very accommodating to find me a table as soon as possible so I could enjoy a meal for one. Pizza was amazing and not badly priced at all, plus considering how busy it was the food came out fast! Vicente was the waiter for my table who was so friendly and made sure I had everything I wanted. Will be sure to come back next time I’m in Liverpool.

Best pizza I've had in a long time! And I'm very picky about food. We got a table spontaneously, but it was very busy. Reservation may be required.

Lovely pizza, and good service. We enjoyed our visit.

Superb Pizza, at very reasonable prices. Better than Gordon Ramey’s Pizza street. We ordered the Pepperoni and the Cinghiale. The side salads are also great value.

Delicious pizza. Nice and professional staff. Great atmosphere. When in Liverpool, it is definitely worth visiting this place.

Busy Saturday evening, a lot of people inside and despite that they manage to prepare 4 pizzas for takeaway in just 15 minutes. I was pleasantly surprised when really kind member of stuff told as that our pizzas will be ready in 15 minutes. We came back in 14 minutes to collect them and they were just on the way from kitchen to us. And most important pizzas were really tasty. Really good Napoletana style pizzas

A warm and inviting restaurant with reasonable prices.

Went on recommendation and was not dissapointed. Biggest pizza and garlic bread I have had.

Staff are nice and food great, I just wish there was a gluten free option.

Poor attitude/ behaviour from unkind server SHARON 24/8/24 @17:37. Ticket no: 9002 Was Disinterested and unhelpful/Instructed us to a dark space to order food, out of sight of others. No seat offered . SHARON was Unhelpful with pointing out pork, said Fennel sausage was chicken! SHARON Told us, my disabled child and I to wait outside for order, despite a number of empty tables. SHARON, told us to move from an alleged reserve seat ( no reservation sign). SHARON to avoid confusion with others was 5ft 3”, blonde bob, pale complexion, & were a grey cardigan, was very unfriendly & unkind.

Best pizza we have ever had! So happy they have made the triple pepperoni special a permanent menu item. We have tried a few of the pizzas and they have all been incredible! Great food great drinks great service! Can really recommend

We were on holiday in liverpool and came across rudys and decided to give it a go and we were so glad we did , we had a garlic bread to share to start with and it was amazing and the pizzas were just wow. Honestly the whole experience from start to finish was amazing. Would highly recommend.

Today we had the opportunity to have lunch at this restaurant and in general I could say that the price-quality ratio is quite good. It's not the best pizza I've ever had, but it was good. They have waiters who speak Spanish which is appreciated.

Always will be our favourite Rudy’s restaurant. Fantastic atmosphere and lovely food

Got seated and served very fast. The pizza was delicious and reasonably priced. Would absolutely go back

Had a fantastic meal at this pizza restaurant in Liverpool! The pizzas were outstanding—thin, crispy crusts with generous, fresh toppings. The atmosphere was lively, and the service was friendly and efficient. If you're a pizza lover in Liverpool, this place is a must-try!

Top ! A proper pizza with a nice cornicione like should be. The best around

Very good pizza (even better than some in Italy) and even the espresso was perfect. Absolutely recommended

Food was increíble. Service is very fast , and especially the boy call Vicente was very nice and polite with us. We recommend this place and we Will return here soon sure!

After a week of fish and chips and steak pies, for the last evening before leaving we risk a Neapolitan pizza. What can I say, never was a gamble better played! Real Neapolitan pizza, with a crust, ingredients, cooking and dimensions worthy of Naples. Tiramisu as if my wife had made it and expressed that it can finally be defined as such after a week of slop. The guys who work there are helpful and kind, the location is truly beautiful. Congratulations guys!

Italian pizza chefs, Italian ingredients, courteous staff. As an Italian in Liverpool if you want a good pizza this is the right place! 2 pizzas 2 coffees water in a jug £24

I feel sorry for people who have never been here. Easily the best meal of my life! Staying over for the weekend in Liverpool, and my husband and I ate here last night and we are booked in again tonight because it was so good! The dough, delicious. The sauce, scrumptious. The toppings, to die for. The dipping sauces? Well, they will take you to the moon and back. The staff are wonderful, welcoming and very attentive. Overall, if you don’t come here at least once in your life for the best pizza you’ve ever eaten, you’re missing out!

Great evening, fantastic food & service

Great Food. Great Service. Great Experience.

Wow! Went for lunch, and we were one of the first to go in when it opened at midday. Within half an hour, the place was nearly full - always a good sign, in my opinion! The food was served quickly and it was delicious! The pizzas are big, and we probably could have shared one between the 2 of us - we know for next time. Luckily, the staff were more than happy to give us a takeaway box. The staff were kind and attentive too! Absolutely cannot wait to go back so I can try the tiramisu!

Lovely little place, fantastic home made thin crust pizza and really tasty, good service and nice atmosphere, prices are reasonable too

Perfect pizza, great location and friendly atmosphere

The best pizza in Liverpool. The taste is really great. Thin dough with super tasty toppings. Plus the great location in the Albert Docks. Grazie per l'ottimo cibo

No words for this! One of the best pizza I've had in my life , even better than some places in Italy. Servers are very kind, great location and amazing food I'll definitely come again! And hats off for the prices. 10-12 pounds for pizzas are amazing

Lovely restaurant with really excellent pizza and service.

Came to Rudy’s today to try the Tonno (Tuna Pizza). It was beautiful 🫶🏻. The staff were really friendly and accommodating. Food also came really quick! Also reasonably priced place to eat pizza on the docks ❤️

I will start this review with the positives. Some of the staff are lovely and will try and make your experience as you hoped. Unfortunately this is all I can say positive. We booked a table for our anniversary and were drawn in by the promise of pizza and a view of the docks. I should have known better, when I booked the staff member I spoke with was curt and didn't even let me finish my sentence afterward before hanging up, giving them the benefit of the doubt be it busy or what not we headed in hoping for a lovely treat. After experiencing the staff member again at the door rudely addressing us, we were shown to our table by our server, the highlight of the experience. The table was cramped, the volume of the music rivalled that of the bars present along the docks, to the point me and my partner were having to nearly shout to speak across the very tiny table. The food. Burnt, odd tasting and we eat a slither before regretting picking the place. The garlic bread we had prior to our main was discussed by us and the table across and compared by us both akin to a slightly warm and soggy cheese sandwich, my partner adds, where was the garlic. We were offered deserts to try and redeem the experience but we declined as we had, had enough at this point. Avoid at all costs!

Still sat here eating probably the nicest pizza I have ever had. It’s amazing. Service great too. Overall a great experience.

Great food and a great chain I find the food is brilliant at every Rudy's pizza you go. Right on the canal/docks so beautiful setting. Was busy but still got served well and quickly enough. A friendly waitress served us and wasn't pushy with us either to order more or something expensive. Great quality pizza at a decent price. Recommend

Excellent pizza, caprese salad, amd Caesar salad. Service was spot on.

Delicious pizza, only downside was sitting outside when it was wet and cold, but they were busy so I get it. I can’t comment on inside atmosphere.

As per usual, everything was lovely at Rudy’s. Joe was very attentive and friendly - brilliant service! And the food was delicious. Rudy’s has the best pizza outside of Italy!

Great pizza Friendly staff Good price

First time at Rudy's. Joe was really nice and friendly. Pizzas were lovely, we will definitely be returning! Feedback for management - at peak time (5.30pm on a Saturday) don't take your whole waiting staff for a meeting and leave customers waiting to give their orders. One table left as it took too long. I would recommend either having a meeting at a less busy time or alternatively taking a few waiting staff off the floor at a time if it's essential.

Rudy's Italian restaurant at the Royal Albert Dock. Italian food without many pretensions, it just delivers. The best thing is that it doesn't close at noon, and in our case, we ate at almost 5 in the afternoon. If you are visiting the Royal Albert Dock, it is a good place to satisfy your hunger.

We have dined a few times at Rudys. Great food, great value and great service. We’d Highly recommend. It was a special occasion for our daughter. Thanks all it was great

We where in Liverpool for a concert and called in for food I can honestly say best food, service, drinks and dessert I’ve had in a long time, are server ( forgot his name sorry ) he was brilliant friendly and made us feel really welcome and on the + side when we where paying are bill we discovered are dessert was complimentary! They certainly know how to look after their customers.

Everything spectacular. Food, service. All perfect. 👌🏼 😍

Absolutely fantastic place to eat. We had lunch the one day and went back again the next. Beautiful atmosphere and brilliant staff. Big portion for an amazing price and incredibly tasty, definitely the best pizzas my partner and I have had in England or Scotland. Will 1000% recommend this place to anyone who loves traditional pizza and atmosphere. watching your pizza cook as you have a glass of ice-cold wine is a brilliant experience.

Huge kudos to the team! We have really enjoyed our first visit. Food was AMAZING! Service was superb and atmosphere was electric. Definitely worth 2,5h drive! See you again soon!

Best pizza I've had for a long time and the Americano coffee was excellent and Bethany was superb

Brilliant pizza, even better service! Joe is a brilliant host!

We sat out on the patio, and it was really nice. Weather was perfect and the pizza was very good!

Fantastic Pizza, Good Service & Prices and sitting outside to have a view on the Dock is nice I definitely recommend Rudy‘s!

Great place to grab a great quality bite!

I ordered mozzarella pizza and Poretti draft beer and it was delicious. The pizza was slightly burnt, but it had a good texture as it was baked in a good oven. Of course, draft beer goes with pizza. The slightly bitter taste stimulates the appetite. The price is reasonable too.

Great cherry sour and fantastic pizza

Rudy's Pizza at the Liverpool Albert Dock offers an outstanding pizza experience that perfectly captures the essence of traditional Neapolitan cuisine. Renowned for its meticulously crafted dough, which ferments for 24 hours to achieve an airy and light texture, Rudy's uses top-quality ingredients sourced directly from Naples, such as San Marzano tomatoes and Fior di Latte mozzarella. The result is a pizza with a crispy, bubbly crust and fresh, flavorful toppings. The restaurant’s modern, inviting atmosphere, complete with an open kitchen and a vibrant yet relaxed ambiance, makes it a favorite spot for both locals and visitors seeking a slice of authentic Italian pizza. I would highly recommend trying this outstanding location for a date night or evening meal.

Beth was really attentive, lovely and welcoming. Recommended the triple Pep which was great

Excellent pizza, flexible on the options

Oh so good! Gas oven pizza made on the spot! Napoli style. Right on Royal Albert dock with a great view and a second floor for that extra capacity. The pizzas are great, crispy, flavorful and with great choices of toppings if you want to add extra. Our server was phenomenal - knowledgeable and friendly. Actually everyone we interacted with here was super nice! Highly recommend it!

Not gonna lie. At this place, I had one of the best pizzas ever, and I had many pizzas in my life so far. It was absolutely delicious. From dough to toppings to size, it was absolute perfection. I would fly to Liverpool again for one day only to eat at this place. All I can say is thank you for this culinary experience.

Came to get some food on my break in work, excellent food and even better service from all the staff especially Jordan and ruby

Service was brilliant pizza was excellent definitely coming again

Always fanatic service with Jordan

I find myself here a tad too often. It's become a sort of irresistible temptation; every time I stroll by, I inevitably find myself drawn in. As much as I love it, I know I need to exercise some self-control and cut back on my visits.

Excellent pizzas and ideal location for lunch when visiting the Royal Albert Dock in Liverpool. We ordered some Mediterranean olives, a Margherita pizza and a Portobello pizza. We enjoyed the pizza, the friendliness of the staff as well as the view. The service was very quick.

Great staff, we're told the table was available for an hiyr which was fine. Had sicilian olives, salame pizza, tomato garlic bread and capriocciosa minus proscuitto pizza. Had the Italian beer, cider (forgot yhe name) and a soda water, all nice and chilled, very refreshing. Everything was delicious. Quick service, nice chilled atmosphere.

Amazing pizza. I'd definitely recommend this place 👌

Lovely food. Pizzas are huge and could easily share one between two. Staff really pleasant. It's definitely worth a visit.

The Neapolitan pizza at Rudy's is fantastic, as is the service and atmosphere. We also had cocktails which were delicious. We will definitely be back.

Perfect little pizzeria and reasonably priced. Wine is good quality. Just note - the kitchen closes an hour before closing time! This isn't made clear on the website.

Pizzeria Napoletana authentic Italian ingredients and best Pizza and Tiramisù in Liverpool. Emma General Manager and Edoardo waiter they’re very professional. Amazing service and staff. Congrats very good lunch time for me.

Disgusted at the mix messages received when doing a walk in. Please don’t listen to the website that states they can accommodate you for walk ins if you don’t have a booking. Went at 5pm and was clearly told to return at 6.30pm to get a table on a first come first served basis. Asked if we could book and categorically told by the lady it wasn’t an option. Returned at 6.20pm to be told that the it’s not the case as she should have booked us a table. The lady came over and lied about what was said even though she said it to 4 groups in front of me. 1.20hrs lost, birthday ruined and lied too. Will never ever try this venue again and won’t recommend it. The other Rudy’s are a lot better organised.

The flavors of the pizza were enjoyable, but the dough was excessively chewy (some chewiness is expected, but not to this extent) and lacked the desired crispiness. The rubbery cheese might be the culprit. Furthermore, the overall temperature of the pizza was lukewarm upon serving, which seemed odd, as I expected this type of pizza to come straight out of a piping hot wood oven and be served immediately. While the service was generally pleasant, there were some hiccups. We were initially brought the wrong pizza, and it was taken away randomly. Additionally, one out of the four pizzas arrived much sooner than the rest, leading to a 10-minute wait for the rest of the food. Setting aside these issues, the atmosphere was pleasant, and the location boasted a lovely view of the docks. However, if you're seeking authentic Neapolitan pizza, I would recommend visiting Neapolitan Pizza on Lime Street, as they are the only AVPN certified pizzeria in the city.

Went for lunch before going to Cirque du Soleil. Really nice food fast service and very helpful staff. Nice view of the docks.

Stunning pizza, base so amazing I could eat it on its own. Freshness and quality of ingredients amazing. My son wanted to move to Liverpool to be able to eat it everyday.

Have to say one of if not the worst Pizzas we have ever had tasteless and wet To add insult to injury table next to us thought it was a playground for their kids …. Why do they let it happen ? Maybe the parents don’t have to look after them while they play !! Recipe for disaster hot food/drink glasses/bottles sharp edges of tables Staff worked around them and said nothing

Went in on my own but they let me sit at the counter. Great pizza and quick service. The Nduja dip was great too!

After we sat down, we were informed that they had no mozzarella. I'd have left then but kids were ravenous. I asked if the dishes containing mozzarella had been adapted and they had but with a £3 increase in price. Supply failure passed straight onto the customer. Won't be back.

Absolutely the best pizza I have ever tasted! Service fantastic and atmosphere great 😋

The service none existent waited over half an hour, no waiter, seemed more like self-service. Normally pretty good, however, I was ignored by several members of staff. Eventually left and had fish and chips.

Very good! The best pizza we've had since Naples last summer 😁

Incredible pizzas, great prices and super friendly staff. Easy to recommend.

Exceptional pizza at a fair price. The dough is perfect, the size and shape are perfect, the quantity of tomato sauce and toppings is perfect, what can I say! Nice service too.

Best pizza I’ve had in long time , pizza chef were from Naples couldn’t get anymore authentic. And it was excellent 👌🤌

My wife came to Liverpool and ate here last year and has been going on about going back (even from Essex). Just fantastic and great sized pizza.. Best I've had outside of Italy. We don't have dairy cheese, so good news that they have great vegan cheese, which was delicious. Lovely location by the dockside. Welcoming and friendly staff rounds off a perfect afternoon meal. Good beer on draft and a nice selection of wines. Can't recommend highly enough and we'll be back again.

A very delicious pizza, very good service and pleasant atmosphere

Rapid service, incredible pizza!

Best pizza this side of Napoli, the taste is as authentic and fresh as you'll get, without going to Italy. I had the Pizza Tonno and my friend had the Magherita - fantastic. The Antipasti platter (Campana) was amazing, too. So glad we popped in, we thoroughly enjoyed every morsel :)

The whole team were amazing! Special thanks to Kyle and Hope who were amazing!! would recommend to anyone

I was welcomed by Jordan, who placed me in a table where I could charge my phone while eating as I am not from Liverpool, and my first experience was great. I asked about the cider as I usually drink with strawberry flavour and lime, and there was only one option, which was no flavoured. He went an extra mile, putting some syrup to give some taste, even though he affirmed it was good either way, and having tried both, I agree. But I appreciate the kindness. He asked me about allergies, and I would have told him if I had any. However, it is nice being asked it anyway. The pizza was deliciousssss as well, and he brought me, without being asked for, a box so I could pack the remaining half of it and take it with me. The pizza dough is very thin, but I felt fully satisfied. Thank you for taking care of me, Jordan.

The food was so good here, I got the portobello pizza and our service from Hope was great! Would definitely recommend

I can quite honestly say this is the best pizza I have tasted outside of Naples!! Beautiful soft dough pizza base and very tasty toppings. The tomato and garlic bread is also 'to die for'. With a refreshing Aperol Spritz, what more could you want?!!

Phenomenal pizza. When we entered, it was quite empty, but after 15 minutes the tables were full and there were no free seats.

I was recommended this by a friend, and it was amazing. Pizza was delicious and brownies were even better. The staff were very friendly!

The customer never knows best. Arrogant

The server / manager with the unfinished hair cut and bad attitude is not best suited for a customer facing roll.let him go before you lose all your customers.

Stunning Pizzas, service was excellent, very friendly, I will not go anywhere else for pizza now, found a little gem

Vynikajici pizza, deti nechtely 3 dny chodit na jidlo nikam jinam :)

Posto molto carino, servizio veloce, personale gentile, cibo davvero ottimo. Pizzaioli napoletani, prodotti tipici italiani. Locale italiano autentico. Vi consiglio di prenotare prima altrimenti non troverete posto. Chiede alle 9pm. Da ritornarcj

Amazing, Cannot recommend more, fantastic food and staff

First time dining, recommended by friends. Close to M&S arena which was perfect as we were attending a concert. Loved the atmosphere and decor, staff friendly and attentive. Pizza freshly made, was delicious! I could of ate several! Definitely coming back soon 😊
