It was pleasantly busy on a Wednesday night at about 9pm, with two other tables of four and six, and us two. Staff brought over menus and gave us the heads up that it's BYOB. They didn't mention a corkage fee and I didn't notice one on the bill, although another reviewer has said it's 10%. We paid just over £35 for burrata, two (huge) pizzas, and tiramisu. read more

Ok was the pizza and dips delicious? Yes of course. The reason for this bad review was the service though. We had a horrible service experience via Deliveroo this Thursday. We ordered on Deliveroo at 7:50 pm and the estimated delivery time was 30 - 60 minutes. As the hour approached (the latest the delivery should have been) the app said that the restaurant was still making our order. The app continued to extend the delivery time until we had been waiting two hours and fifteen and the restaurant was due to close. At this point the Deliveroo rider had been waiting at the restaurant for 15 minutes. We were growing increasingly anxious that we wouldn't get our food (that they would cancel the order) and then we wouldn't be able to get food because it was getting so late. The app had no way to contact the restaurant, but said to call the restaurant directly. I tried to call the restaurant multiple times and recieved both line busy messages and had my calls be hung up on. We called repeatedly and repeatedly got no answer. Finally, at 10:25 the rider got our pizza (2.5 hours after we had ordered), but we didn't get to eat until 10:40... A bit frustrating. Like I said, the food is good, but the lack of timeliness, the lack of communication... it was incredibly unprofessional and honestly anxiety inducing. At least have a message on your restaurant number. And if you're SO busy you can't do delivery... don't offer it as an option. read more

Double Zero is by far one of the best pizzas I've eaten outside of Napoli. First things first, though. Double zero is a grade in the Italian system of grading the fineness of flour that is used to make pizza, pasta etc. The numbers are 2, 1, 0 and 00 from coarsest to finest (in case you're interested). OK, now, the place. Double Zero has been done up to give it a rustic, rural Italian feel. It appears all their ingredients come from Italy. They have the pizza oven specially imported from Italy. The pizza maker is Italian also. They don't do alcoholic drinks there but they have a bring your own booze policy and they have some sort of a corking charge, which is 10% (of the total bill, I presume). We were a group of five adults and we ordered, cheese & garlic breads and focaccia for starter, and two margaritas, a primavera, a calzone and another pizza whose name I can't remember. The breads and the focaccia were fluffy and had a very pleasant texture to them. My cheese & garlic bread came out burnt (but that's only cos my Italian friend was busy distracting the chef). Told the waiter about the burnt bread and got another one, cooked to perfection (after exactly however long it takes to do that). The pizzas and the breads were made in front of our eyes (a few feet away) and from what I saw, the chef wasn't using excessive flour to counter the extra moist dough (which is always a good sign). If I am not being very clear, next time you order a dominos pizza, if you observe carefully, you will see little grains of baked flour resembling fine grains of sand. There was none of that on our pizzas. The margaritas were very well made, the sauce was neither too sweet nor too sour, the cheese was rich and flavoursome and the crust was well cooked and easily tearable with a fork and a knife. It was neither hard that meant your knife landed in the neighbouring table nor was it so elastic that you played a cheap imitation of a Beethoven symphony with the knife and the plate. The crust was cooked to perfection! I must also mention that the pizza felt baked as opposed to fried, which can happen sometimes when they add oil to the dough. Basically, the food was fantastic. The service was pretty decent and we had a waiter who was friendly, patient and polite. All the other staff were very friendly too. They also accept card payments and you can get a take out. They don't do deliveries. Based on tonight's experience I definitely recommend Double Zero. As with everywhere else, I sincerely hope they continue to make Neapolitan quality pizzas and retain the very good levels of service we were subjected to tonight. read more

We heard so much about this pizza place from a friend and decided to take another who just loves pizza here last night. Luckily we booked because it was already busy at 6:30pm. Our slot was until 8pm so we were happy to find out that the menu proudly says that their pizzas are made and cooked in the traditional Napoli style in an oven at 450oC for only 90 seconds! The menu had just the right amount of pizza flavours and included some non traditional toppings such as pineapple, chicken and some traditional ones we don't usually did like that really spicy sausage paste Nduja and Scamozza (type of melts mozzarella, not the smokey type though). I went for the Rustica - I love a bit if artichoke on my pizza! It was delicious! The grilled aubergines were thickly sliced, the sundried tomatoes were no overly salty and the artichokes were fresh and did not come from a jar! My pizza loving friend went for the Ruspante and she enjoyed the thick slices of mushrooms, chicken and strips of pancetta. She especially loves crust and she ate every bit of her pizza and the crust I left behind because "it's probably the best pizza I had in a while!" The boys went for meaty ones and tried meatballs, chorizo, and the Calabrese spicy sausage and Italian sausage on the Toscana pizza. The verdict was that the toppings were top notch and nobody left a single bite! Because two of our friends arrived late, our waitress was getting a bit impatient/stressed but there was really no need to rush us because the pizzas really did come out the oven in no time at all! The place was packed and there were a lot of children (because they have a kids offer of Margherita with 2 toppings and a juice for £5) and so there were quite a few chunks of pizza on the floor. We brought our own alcohol (10% of your bill as corkage fee) and were swiftly brought glasses, however, they were all a bit unclean - think their glass washer needs a clean! Some of these points made me want to knock off a star but they WERE really busy and the pizzas WERE amazing and I was glad they allowed bookings so I'm giving them 5 stars! Would deffo recommend Floriana A. and everyone else who loves a good southern Italian pizza to try it! read more

Great atmosphere, delicious food, friendly staff. I love this place! Before popping in I couldn't tell if this was a restaurant or a pizza shop - for clarity, it's a restaurant but you can order for takeaway. They don't deliver though. It was pleasantly busy on a Wednesday night at about 9pm, with two other tables of four and six, and us two. Staff brought over menus and gave us the heads up that it's BYOB. They didn't mention a corkage fee and I didn't notice one on the bill, although another reviewer has said it's 10%. We paid just over £35 for burrata, two (huge) pizzas, and tiramisu. Burrata was excellent and came with parma ham, melon and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. The pizzas we ordered were the Tropical (ham and pineapple) and the Sarda (sausage, roast potato and rosemary). As Rich stated in his review they were a bit messy to eat. The base was a lot sturdier at the edge than in the middle so not really easy to pick up and eat by the slice. Perhaps if we'd gone for fewer toppings it might have been easier? We shared both pizzas and the toppings were all delicious. Roast potatoes on a pizza is like my dream come true. We failed at finishing them and so they're currently in the fridge waiting to be our lunch. The tiramisu was on the small side but very rich and tasty. I enjoyed it a lot. Rich discovered that he does not, in fact, hate tiramisu, so that was a success. Overall I really like and recommend this place and think it's a wonderful addition to Chorlton. read more

The pizza here is just phenomenal. Just go. Make a booking if it's a weekend night as it gets very busy. It's a cash only restaurant and bring your own alcohol. There's a 10% of the bill corkage charge so bear that in mind when you're working out what you'll need to spend! Don't go anywhere else for pizza. Go here. read more

Double Zero - Pizza Near Me - Manchester, XGM

A welcome addition to the chorlton scene. The decor is rustic and pleasant with bright yellow leatherette seats. There's outdoor seating at the front although it's a bit squeezed in spots. I had a siciliano pizza with fennel sausage and dollops of ricotta on a thin crispy base. I enjoyed mine, especially the sausage. My friend had primavera pizza with rocket and parmesan shaving. She enjoyed it but thought it was a bit too salty. We only had pizza as they'd run out of raspberry sorbet and also the Panna cotta. Strangely I wasn't in the mood for chocolate tiramisiu, which puzzled me. The service was very friendly but a bit scatty at times. He did seem pretty busy though. In fact considering it was a Monday at 8 the place was pretty full. read more

Excellent pizza! The best I've had outside Italy and certainly the best I've had in the Manchester area, including Rudy's (which is also fantastic). I went with my boyfriend on a Friday evening. We called a bit beforehand to try to reserve but unfortunately they take a limited number of reservations in order to save a few tables for walk-ins. I was told that we would just have to show up and see, which was fine. When we arrived we were told it would be a 45 minute to an hour wait. We were okay with that and went to the bar next door (Strange Brew) to wait. This restaurant is BYOB with a "corkage" fee (is it really called this in the UK given the general lack of corks?) of 10% of the total bill. We bought a bottle of wine at the supermarket across the street to enjoy with our meal and that won us a nice savings. We returned after the specified wait time and there was a table ready for us. The restaurant has a rustic Italian vibe with an authentic wood fire stove. The staff was very friendly and we were well attended to. I had the special that night which consisted of a pizza with mushrooms, spinach, and ricotta cream sauce. It was FANTASTIC. My boyfriend ordered the roasted veggie calzone which was very good as well. The place was busy, but our food wasn't long to arrive. Unfortunately we weren't able to sample either the starters or desserts, which looked very good, as the portions are large. Both the pizza and calzone were £12. TL;DR - FANTASTIC pizza, BYOB, reserve early or come expecting to wait a spell. I will certainly be returning soon! read more

Pizza was pretty tasty but too soft for my palette. That being said my husband really liked it. My husband likes soft pizza but I like it extra crispy- NY style. This place serves their pizza on the soft side. Great environment, reasonably priced. Remember to bring cash. read more

One of the better pizzas I've eaten in a while. We shared a ham and pineapple along with a sausage and roast potato which was as good as you should be thinking it sounds. It's byob which we didn't know but there's a co-op literally over the road so this didn't cause me to halt my birthday drinking for more than a few minutes. I kind of want to give it 4.5 stars as the pizza was a little too messy if you wanted to slice it up and eat it that way but 1. As mentioned this may be my fault as I was fairly drunk 2. I should probably be more classy anyway 3. The staff and service was very good and 4. I paid on card and then realised we had about 56p in change with which to leave a tip so I felt a little guilty afterwards. In the end though it was great and I'll be heading back there very soon to sample more of the menu so yeah...full marks from me! read more

I've eaten at 00 twice in the last month and it is really rather good. The decor is pleasingly rustic with pots of herbs on the tables and assorted random items of decor - old petrol cans, bits of machinery and cameras. Odd, but it works. There's an impressive Italian wood fired oven at the back where the magic happens. The pizzas are formed by hand as ordered, all in plain sight. Cooked in 90 seconds. They are large, with a chewy edge and thin base. There's a good choice of quality toppings and you can add extras. There are starters but I've not tried them as the pizza is enough for me - and I have an appetite! We shared a splendid tiramisu last time which was small but perfectly formed. Bring your own wine is always a bonus (10% corkage). Friendly and efficient service but slower at busy times as you would expect. There's no waiting area if you are early, but with bars up and down the parade of shops, that's not really a problem. A great little restaurant with very very good pizzas. read more

One of the best pizzas I've had since the last time I was in Italy! I had the Bianca Neve, which was a white pizza with portobello mushrooms, mozzarella and truffle oil. The sourdough cooked in the wood fire oven was absolutely amazing. Would definitely come back soon! read more
