Maurizio's

“Great food, fast service, and friendly staff we’d definitely visit again.”

We decided to visit Maurizio’s new location after seeing it advertised everywhere as an authentic Italian restaurant run by a proper Italian family, which is clearly meant to be the unique selling point. Unfortunately the experience did not live up to expectations from the very start. The booking system is horrendous. You have to text or WhatsApp to book and even then I had to chase to confirm whether we actually had a reservation. There is also no menu available online which makes it hard to know what to expect before arriving. The drinks felt overpriced and disappointing. £4 for a plastic

First time dining here, was very welcoming and excellent customer service. Didn’t have to wait long for the food to be served. I had by far the best pizza in a very long time. They even had my favourite imported beer Ichnuso unfiltered!! I was given a complimentary digestive alcoholic shot alway, the staff were all very warm, friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend and definitely go again.

This, by far, is my most favourite restaurant in town. My partner and I have frequented here. The staff are always warm and welcoming (special mention to Rafika, George and Ry. We miss Olga too). Maurizio, and the always present, lady chef are both energetic. Today’s visit had been extra great given my partner’s pasta preference which the lady chef has gracefully granted. Thank you to the lady chef who made my partner’s night joyful! We’ll visit again soon!

Best authentic Italian pizza in the UK!! No word of a lie, this place is amazing. The choice of toppings and the quality of the ingredients is first class. Special mention to Rafika who was a great host and waitress for the evening.
