"I eat out very regularly, and I have to say that todays experience in Pizza Express Victoria Sq was absolutely terrible! It was my first time trying Pizza Express (like I told the lady wearing a green shirt, who I assume was a manager on duty) and it will most definitely be my last! My sons my niece were also adamant that they wouldn’t be back either. How disappointing. Firstly we sat for a lifetime watching staff walk past us while we waited for our order to be taken. Then the drinks we asked for were not brought. Then one pizza arrived on its own, they forgot our starters, and said kid had the pizza eaten by the time everyone else’s arrived in dribs and drabs. We were one pizza short and we had to go ask for that and our starters, which took donkeys to be sorted too) they are called starters for a reason! Staff were standing about talking to each-other and not really keeping an eye on tables or customers. Then there seems to be no notion of what anyon needs to be doing and what plates are delivered to tables one at a time! So strange. And long waits between each. That’s not how anyone wants to eat when out with family.. Then they forgot to bring the deserts, and by that stage I had had enough. I asked for them to be taken off my bill. Girl came to the table and not even an apology after I communicated to a staff member (quite nicely) that I thought our experience had been really awful. Plenty of empty tables too, so not to say that they were at capacity, plus they had plenty of staff on. The pizza I got was rotten too, and all watery on the top. Only ate it because I was absolutely starving after the wait. I just can’t believe how awful the service was. Won’t ever be back."

"Let me tell you about my experience here so I turn up with no booking and get turned away which was fair however, I then go into their app (had a 45 minute wait but I didn’t mind since I am pregnant and was craving it) and made a booking only for one server to call me a liar because he said he stopped new bookings online. He also said that the kitchen was closed only for a lady (assuming the manager) to confirm that I indeed did make a booking and invited me and my party to sit. We were given menus and after literally 1 minute the rude server came to us asking us what we wanted. When we stated we hardly had a chance to look at the menu he sarcastically said take your time the kitchen is closing in 10 minutes. After browsing the menu the manager came to take our order. When the starter (dough balls) arrived they were not cooked correctly, remained the size of tiny pebbles and were blatantly burnt from the outside. I took one look and asked the server if they were being serious with the starter. He didn’t even say anything and took it back to correct the mistake. The second batch came and although it was not up to the normal standards of pizza express I accepted it as it was an improvement and I was hungry. We later received our mains and much later into the meal another table turns up. I was confused as when we first sat down we were told the kitchen would close in 10 minutes so why is it after almost an hour the kitchen is still open for other tables ? I understand that it might have been a long day for the servers however to be called a liar and to be lied to is so unprofessional. So disappointed at the way I was treated"
