Review of Pizza Express

One of the best Pizza Express restaurants! 
Pizza Express is a brilliant restaurant - I love their menu and the style of the kitchen being on show so you can see them making your food. I also like the fact they refresh their menu quite often so it doesn't get boring and there are new things to choose on the menu.
The starters are lovely, everyone knows their famous dough balls and garlic butter starter! They recently took the "savoury breads" side dish off the menu which was disappointing as it was a brilliant side dish, so tasty and perfect to share. The mains are good too, lovely thin base pizza with tasty topping. Their new "Roman" base pizzas have much bigger, thinner and crispier bases and are great if you are really hungry - you can now "upgrade" any standard pizza to "Roman" for £1 extra which offers more choice. Deserts are fab too now they have added to their menu.
I like this particular branch because the service is brilliant, staff are very friendly and the food seems to be nicer here (more generous portions, hotter, fresher). It is also in a really nice location and if you are really lucky you can nab a seat outside in the summer. It gets very busy on weekends and Friday nights so get there early, try to book a table or expect to wait for a table.

Uncooked dough and no pepperoni on pepperoni pizza 
Dire, dire dire - do not go here! The salad bar was horrible and the pizza was just as bad. The pizza base was still dough and they forgot to put pepperoni topping on a pepperoni pizza. Staff were rude and unhelpful. Teaches me for abandoning Pizza Express that night!

Good food, restaurant quite loud 
I ate here a few years ago for someones birthday and the food and service were excellent. I loved the menu, lots to choose from. You have to order veg and sides separately but the portions are generous. When I went it was a Saturday night and the restaurant was heaving, so busy and very loud so not perfect for a quiet, romantic meal.

Hair in food, rude staff
A horrendous restaurant – rude staff who don’t know the meaning of customer service and very poor quality food. After arguing with staff over seating us then asking us to move and wait a further 30 minutes as they could make more money splitting our table into 2 and seating two parties instead of one, we had to wait over 30 minutes for the starters which they got wrong, a further 20 minutes for them to then bring the correct starters and then the same problems with the main meals. The main meals, when correctly brought to the table were either very burnt or very under cooked and one of our party didn’t get his main meal until everyone else’s plates had started to be cleared away. One of our party found a hair in her food and the manager told us it was the “hair from a mushroom” – when we pointed out that mushrooms do not have hairs he said “this is true” but then argued that they would provide a replacement meal that we had to pay for. We didn’t want a replacement meal and wanted to leave as soon as possible after that awful evening and had to argue to get the meal with the hair in taken off the bill. Most of us were either sick later that evening and.or had upset tums for the next couple of days. Inedible food, rude staff and a horrible experience – we will never go back again and I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant to anyone, not even my worst enemy!
