Our experience at Pizza Express was made exceptional by the amazing service. I got a nduja calzone and it was delicious, fresh, and full of flavor, and Matteo’s attentive, friendly presence made everything even better. Recommended, especially with kids, who just lived the menu!

Look, I'll write it for you in Arabic so you understand man I see more than once I ask for food from you and every time I ask for food I get poisoned on the second day and I have to go to the hospital. This happened to me a few months ago and the day before yesterday I asked for food from you and it happened to me. The same thing means the summary of the phrase, if you understand and care about the restaurant behind the people, review your food and review the workers who are working with all respect. I mean, in all honesty, if I had the strength, I would have closed the store and imposed the maximum penalties on you, because I am now talking to you and until now, since yesterday, I have not eaten a single bite of the water that I drank. Return it

Amazing setting. Great coffee. Gets busy sometimes and can take a while to get served but it’s a beautiful spot.

Sopa extremadamente decepcionante con trozos de palitos de cangrejo. Las gambas de Kung Po y el arroz frito eran pasables.

I didn't want to leave a review, but feel I want to leave my thoughts for The Junction. I've been going to TJ since about 2016. Many times I went 2-4 a week as it's not far from home. The Junction was like my second living room and I sometimes even spent money going into overdraft, just to listen to the music and come to terms with my grief. But I only give it 2 stars even though they have world-class Jazz & music program, unbelievably for free 6 nights a week. I loved the concept "from musicians for musicians" run by Paul & Luke. I loved what Sung put on with open mic nights on Mondays. In the first few years I went, most if not all bar staff were musicians jumping in to play music and then back to the bar to serve drinks. That really was a great thing and the staff were all amazing naturally. They are jelled with each other like a big family and the "for musicians from musicians" concept was really evident. But these last 3-4 years the staffing has changed a great deal. Apart from having a high staff turn-over now, and of course the pandemic coming inbetween, some staff have really turned me off The Junction. One particular staff member who at the beginning seemed quite "lazy", letting his colleague do all the work while he sat around drinking free gin & tonic. Quiet shocking to see this attitude as I worked most of my life in hospitality and know this kind of work like the back of my hand. But as I have personal issues, having lost my family, I gave him the benefit of the doubt, thinking he might be going through stuff which leads to him not being professional. After getting to know him a bit as he's also regularly there as a customer and as he mingles with regular customers, I was really put off by the way he gossips and talked bad about other customers and even some people who played on stage. I'm sure Paul & Luke are aware of this as I witnessed him being taken aside once by another staff member being upset with him. Most bar staff aren't musicians anymore, which is not an issue, but I missed the old guard of staff, at least their attitude. I also was not keen on the food. On my birthday a friend and I had steak. I ordered a well done, and my friend a medium rare. But I received a medium rare and my friend an almost rare steak. I didn't complain and left it as a one-off. But I stopped ordering food. NEVER compromise on food-quality and cleanliness. Rather have a simpler menu, less on the menu, but then make it top quality if your chef can't handle the pressure. I'd rather have a simpler menu with high quality. I had a meltdown recently (my trauma of losing my family etc) while drunk, and apologised to some of the staff and emailed The Junction directly to apologise, but also to explain my concern about this one staff member. Upon apologizing to one staff, I was told that my meltdown was out of character. I appreciate this being acknowledged and would like to apologise again to all involved. I emailed TJ never received a response, which is ok. I just feel I have to leave this review. To me, you can have THE BEST music, and even the best food, but if your staff aren't professional and spread a toxic atmosphere, even to other customers, a musician and staff, it's a total downturn. Your customers are your bread and butter. Customers pay your wages and bill. Rather charge tickets or more for food and drink when you play world-class Jazz, then have it for free with poor staffing. I wish The Junction all the best in their new location and I hope they take a good look at how and who to hire. Everything stands and falls with staffing, with people.. Paul & Luke seem detached now from staff. But Paul was very strong and visible during the pandemic. He handled the new rules after lockdown very very well in an unprecedented situation. He took that very serious and was very visible and hands on during the initial openings after lockdown. Keep your music alive, but take a good look at whom you hire. They represent you. 2-3 years ago I would have written a 5 star review. Sadly, it's 2, 1 more star for the music. But I'd rather have crappy music and respectful staff than the other way around. I felt uncomfortable many times. Best wishes for the future.

I ordered from this restaurant and received horrible customer service. I was verbally abused over the phone when the issue could have been sorted with a civil conversation

A little underwhelming…. The pizzas are good, but the service and wine is disappointing. It’s very causal but expensive. Food took a long time to come out and the wine was over priced.
