"I can't fault La Favorita, their pizzas are the best I've ever had, outisde of Italy. The smokey wood fired taste, the base, touch of oregano, the quality of ingredients are genuinely mouth-watering Having had quite a few deliveries, I find collection is the best method. I have noted that they have reheating instructions on the box now. I do pop it in the oven for or mins on a pizza stone after collecting it, unless it was fresh out of the oven. To be completely honest, I would eat it cold for breakfast too. It's a shame they no longer sell the chicken broccolli pasta and I don't find their arancini that good. The last few times, they have been overcooked and far too expensive for what you get. The calamari has been excellent on occasion, on others, not the best. I find their pizzas are mostly consistently excellent. Having tried many others in the area, there is no competition. Apart from their garlic bread, I have found somewhere that I prefer but the pizzas.....faultless."

The experience at La Favorita can be hit or miss when it comes to delivery and customer service, but their gluten-free pizzas are delicious.

I have mixed feelings about this restaurant. I have ordered from them before and it was okay, but one time I was disappointed with the gluten-free pasta I ordered.

oh, as the mighty fell, has placed an order with la favorita by ubereats on Thursday night. After waiting for a pizza, I called and said my order was gone. after waiting I called again and the story had changed “there was a mix-up and the order will be restored and delivered”. no apologies or declarations. before I hadn't ordered any pizza from anywhere else, in these days it's everywhere, but la favorita.

I really enjoy La Fav restaurant, as they offer gluten-free pizza and pasta options. However, it is not celiac friendly in terms of preparation. They make an effort to accommodate, but cannot guarantee cross-contamination (even indicated on the menu). It is best to avoid menu items fried in shared fryers. Although I have eaten here many times without issues, I did get glutened once on a particularly busy Saturday night. The staff is wonderful and they differentiate gluten-free orders with a special flag for accuracy.
