"I had a wonderfully 21st century dining experience in this restaurant this evening; from being asked on arrival if I wanted to see the Vegan menu to being seated and asked if I had any allergies or special dietary requirements... I was told that my waitress would be either Beth or Sarah ? I never did find out which it was but that didn 't affect the quality of the food or service! then I was given a sensible amount of time to choose my food before an efficient and attentive if unknown waitress took my order. I ordered a bottle of Peroni Gran Riserva which was extremely tasty and started with crab arancini a new menu item which was delicate and flavoursome, especially with the addition of a squeeze of lemon, and then had a Diavolo pizza topped with spicy beef, pepperoni, green pepper, Tobasco sauce and a choice of hot pepper I had roquito with a side of broccolini tenderstem broccoli roasted with garlic and chilli which was perfectly cooked with a nice al dente crunch. I mused to myself that the broccolini should have been called scorpion stems as it 's certainly had a sting in the tale from the chillies ! and the pizza also knocked me backwards with its warmth, but I got used to it and it was very yummy. I had been expecting sweet roquito pearls but the more firey roquito peppers were a new experience for me. The entire meal was delicious I cleared every plate and it was easy to summon service so that I could get my bill and promptly pay and leave. The staff and especially the chef who took his time to come and explain to me that there was a difference between roquito peppers and roquito pearls, and that they used pearls on the salads. Personally, I think next time if I order another diavolo pizza, I will ask them to hold the Tabasco and swap the peppers for pearls but I can 't fault them for something I didn 't ask for! Bravo!"

Excellent service from Lee. We return here time after time and have not been disappointed yet. First time we met Lee we told him we were limited for time. He made sure we were served quickly and we were out within an hour! Fabulous .

My friend and I live 80 miles apart and meet up approx. 3 times a year. We always use Pizza Express for our meal. We met Lee on our latest visit and really appreciated his friendly, but professional approach whilst dealing with our quite specific dietary needs. Thank you Lee.

Got a voucher from work so opted for Pizza Express. My husband and I had a three course meal. didn't enjoy my starter of prawn as the prawns were a bit smaill and tough and one still had the poo line in it. However the mains (pizzas) and puddings were lovely and we had excellent service provided by Lee.

I ordered takeout from this restaurant, hoping for high-quality pizza since it’s an Italian establishment rather than a low-cost takeaway. Unfortunately, I was let down by the £15, 11-inch pizza I received. The dough was undercooked and soggy, and the fresh tomatoes on top were raw, which contributed to the overall sogginess of the pizza. The delivery was prompt, but the driver didn't bother to knock on my door; instead, he insisted that I meet him outside. Overall, it was a disappointing experience. I requested a refund and was asked to provide photos of the pizza, but I haven't received any feedback since. I would have been better off buying a pizza from Aldi, which would have been tastier...
