Review for summer 2019:…read more You know that feeling of exhaustion from heat, endless walking, dodging too many tourists and you just want a piece of heaven... well, you can find it here! We had our sites on another eatery, however thankfully for us we found this gem instead! Do not expect aircon inside, however you will be greeted with friendly staff, pleasant tasting food and plenty of tables inside and out to dine. Cuisine took me back to some places I visited in Italy, and the staff's Italian between one another I think also influenced my experience! Their pizza is FAN-tis-tico!

Summer in Oxford feels like summer at Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco -- tourist-ridden. While…read morerestaurants on the high street offered refuge from the crowds (and the unusual UK heat wave), I was craving something a bit more unique to Oxford. Alas, there's a location in London as well. But this cozy, homey pizza restaurant certainly stood out from the dozens of chain restaurants that we had walked past earlier. The restaurant's interior, with tasteful splashes of color, feels a bit like an Italian grandmother's kitchen -- imagine shelves full of pasta boxes. After an early morning visit to the Ashmolean Museum, we got there shortly after 12:30 p.m., which means that we had just missed the lunch rush. I doubt it would have been a problem had we decided to dine earlier, as there are plenty of tables in the restaurant. The pizzas are rectangular and come in both whole and half versions. (Buongiorno E Buonasera encourages you to order the latter so you can share.) There's a sign somewhere in the restaurant that derides untraditional pizza -- I can't remember what pizza blasphemy it cites, but pineapple on pizza, chicken on pizza... you know the drill. As I don't eat red meat (part of me wished that they served a pizza with chicken, but c'est la vie...), I mentally prepared myself to order a margherita pizza. Which, you know, is delicious in its own right, but I wanted something a bit more daring. I shouldn't have worried. Still authentic, the vivace pizza checked all of my boxes: tomato sauce, mozzarella, peppers, chili, and basil. An extremely filling lunch for less than £10!

I would try to get a basic pizza next time (tomato sauce and basil and see how that goes); the chicken with potatoes pizza was not a good combo in my opinion but that's just me.

I enjoyed a slice of tiramisu for dessert and let me tell you, someone stole grandma's recipe. It was packed with espresso, cocoa, creamy whipped cream, just all things EPIC to put it simply.

If you like your normal unadulterated pizza toppings then this might not be the place for you, but if the thought of a curry on a pizza; a fry up on a pizza; a roast dinner on a pizza; or a Greek salad on a pizza intrigues or excites you then you should check this place out. Not quite a odd as it sounds (for example it's not literally a whole roast dinner on top of the pizza, more just some of the elements from it (but including roast potatoes!)). It seems that they've thought hard about what tastes would work well together. The pizzas are grouped by continent and each one name after a city within that continent. I had the Marrakesh which was lamb with yogurt, soft cheese, onions and raisins. Delicious!

You pass by the pizza ovens in the front, so you can see the work going into your food. We were seated in the upstairs portion (not sure if there's seating downstairs since now that I think about it, it was only staff heading down the stairs at the back). We'd been visiting a few pubs before our 7:30 booking, so we immediately ordered our main dishes. I got the spaghetti alla puttanesca, Jimmy got the Pizza de Mario (has to be good if it has the business name in it, right?), and Jane got the tortelloni alla calabrese. J and J also had the house wine, a montepulciano, that much improved with breathing. The food arrived fairly quickly, and all was delicious. The puttanesca, with olives, capers, and anchovies had a nice briny taste. The cream sauce on the tortelloni was divine - balanced between the cream and the tang of the tomato, very comforting. The pizza with bacon and sausage, artichokes, olives, was nicely crisp on the bottom and not too sweet on the sauce. We left all the plates clean! Prices seem quite reasonable for the quality of the food and the portion size.

I had never felt compelled to visit a Pizza Express before last night: I now regret that I was made…read moreto go there even once. To sum it up, this place neither gets Pizza nor Express right. Don't go unless you have a sudden and unbearable surplus of joie de vivre that you feel must be forced out of you. Pizza Express seems to be an interesting business concept that manages to fall squarely between two concepts: that of the the cheap-and-efficient fastfood joint and that of the slightly more upscale chain restaurant. While it seeks to cover both needs, at my visit, it managed neither. I was visiting in a party that had preordered our menu and choices so there would be no confusion. Still, it took around an hour for our pre-ordered drinks to arrive, even though they consisted of nothing more than bottles of beer or glasses of cheap, sweet prosecco. The staff didn't supply water for more than maybe a quarter of the guests, maybe in an attempt to make people order more drinks. Meanwhile, people were starting to look at their watches, wondering what the kitchen was up to. Down in the cookhouse, they must have taken a nap or decided that matters other than cooking were more important to tend to, as it took almost 2 hours (!) for just some bread and spreads to arrive - and then, in pitifully small quantities and of a quality that made you wonder whether the kitchen had run out and had had to go to the local Tesco to resupply before being able to carry on. When, after still more waiting, our (again, pre-ordered) pizzas arrived, they looked small and sad. There was little difference in their presentation, with unknown meats scattered across a too thick, non-crispy, low-protein dough. I understand that some people have come to be of the opinion that somehow Pizza Express are serving good or 'upscale' pizza. Surely, this must be based on a comparison with no-holds-barred gastronomic atrocities. If compared to places that add silicone-based chemicals to their fake mozzarella, Pizza Express might stand out favorably, but if compared to the supermarket version of PE's own pizzas, there seems to be no difference; and if compared to eateries with just a basic knowledge of the actual Italian dish, what Pizza Express is pure misery. Their diminutive size was thus only a problem upon arrival and when everyone was starving: even after waiting several hours for food, I was rather looking forward to shaking the food experience off me than having to cope with larger amounts of this affront to pizza. The desserts were puzzlingly served as samplers of three desserts to be shared between four people - a rather surprising choice, given that we were simply given four spoons to split: an overly sweet chocolate brownie; a lemon cheesecake (the best of bad bunch of choices this night); and a raspberry sorbet. If it is not some odd social experiment - which the franchise might well turn out to be - who asks groups of guests who share no intimate ties to share a melting raspberry sorbet? The decor, of course, was industrial and uninspiring - but that was expected. That the acoustics of the room were also so poor that normal conversation turned into a brisk game of lip-reading was the straw that broke the camel's back, as it denied us our last chance to mentally retreat from the combination of terribly late, terribly cooked, and terrible served 'food' - all served at a price that would have bought a decent steak frites at local French outlets, or actually great pizza at local alternatives such as the White Rabbit.
