    Superlative ingredients, all flown in from Italy. Go for the simple options - the Santa Buffalina (posh margherita) was the best pizza we've tasted outside Napoli. Or go jazzier with the San Daniele. Read more

    Not only this is by far the best pizza in London but it's exactly like being in Naples where the best pizza in the world is made! If you love pizza you have to come here, you won't be disappointed!

    Easily the best Italian in Ealing, and amongst the very best pizzas in London. Try the Buffala or the truffle ones, finish off with an affogato or one the amazing ice creams. Plus, price are great!

    Nice place, friendly staff,great quality fresh ingredients and good sized portions. MIND YOU, their pizzas are much more like pancakes - it's the dough and tomato base that they use for every pizza...

    True neapolitan pizza and other Italian food, fire oven, Italian staff from Naples, delicious desserts... if you want to take shelter in a neapolitan corner in London, this is the right place.

    Fantastic pizza with authentic Neapolitan taste. If the tiny main restaurant is full, you can eat your meal in the (much cosier) Red Lion pub next door.

    Super fast service, in Italian, in a small and utterly warm atmosphere: welcome to your little corner of Italy in Ealing. Well-deserved top 5 in the rankings of the best pizzerias in London.

    "The base is foldable, paper thin in the middle, expertly charred and ringed with a springy edge... a shallow pool of vibrant, seasoned tomato pulp and exquisite, melting buffalo milk mozzarella..." Read more

    One of the best Pizza's in London! Also do carafes of wine - ideal for sharing! They don't take booking and at busy lunchtimes each adult has to order a pizza - no sharing between two.Definitely g

    Really nice pizzas here! But a bit far out to try unless you're really pining for pizza. Lucky you if you live in Ealing!

    One of the best Pizzas of my life. It is obvious that it has been made by high quality ingredients representing the original Napoli pizza

    The pizza was absolutely amazing, never tasted better. However sometimes you feel rushed and beware it's very popular and small, may need to wait a while. Worth it though.

    Excellent pizza, best in the neighborhood by far. Closest nearby parking would be the Ealing Broadway parkade.

    The pizza is fantastic, however there is a but of an attitude problem, as each person eating at the restaurant needs to order his own pizza.

    Happy family atmosphere. If you rock up without a reservation (bad idea) they'll call you when a table is free from the pub next door

    Pizza is not bad here but I’d say it’s overrated. Da Moreno, probably 10 minutes walk, is better for me. Though, service is good and ambiance is good too.

    Tiny restaurant, tasty pizza. Does takeaway. Yummy pasata but a bit of a soggy base. Franco Manca is better and cheaper.

    Not much to say here: BEST PIZZA IN LONDON!The guys from Naples have nailed it: Real wood fired pizza (yes there are pretend ones but you can't tell!) and the real Mc Coy of Neapolitan pizza.

    Almost a good place to eat pizza but you are not allowed inside if you do not order at least one pizza per person. .. so no pizza no entry... also you'll be kicked out in less than 30 minutes.
