Review

We popped into Prezzo for what would we thought would be a nice Pizza in the early evening. The building is highly impressive and the surroundings make you think this might be a good restaurant. It wasn't long till we realised that this was all very misleading. The food, which arrived quite quickly, is of a very, very low standard. The pizza was very soft and doughy - it almost tasted like fried naan bread. I had a spinach and egg pizza and there was very little topping but lots of cheese. The egg was so overdone it was brown - I would rather eat a takeaway pizza. My wife had a very bad goats cheese salad which had lots of cheap bagged purple lettuce and fizzy balsamic vinegar. The goats cheese was so sour it made my mouth curl up. The quality of this restaurant is no better than a takeaway but the prices are very high. I would never waste my money again here - really disappointing. SHT

Prezzo and Beyond

Unfortunately this lovely company gave me food poisoning for my birthday, how thoughtful. When I made a justifiable complaint they fobbed me off me to another company that carries their 'problems'
I know for sure why I had food poisoning as I am afraid to say I am a Chef at a great restaurant in North London for my sins........
