Harden's survey result
Summary
“Very, very large… thin-based crust… filled with toppings… excellent tastes” – the pizza satisfies all-comers to this pair of outlets from the veteran Naples operation that became famous through Elizabeth Gilbert’s 2006 bestseller ‘Eat Pray Love’. The first London outpost, on the tourist beat near Madame Tussauds and Sherlock Holmes in Baker Street, has been joined by a second in Soho.
Summary
“Outstanding pizzas” live up to the highest expectations at the London outposts of a Neapolitan original going back five generations and 150 years (even if these days they merrily break late founder Michele Condurro’s commandment that only two types of pizza are allowed, the Marinara and the Margherita). The Naples flagship became a place of post-divorce pilgrimage following Elizabeth Gilbert’s 2006 bestseller ‘Eat Pray Love’.
Summary
The “outstanding pizzas” – “huge, delicious and authentically Neapolitan” – win top marks for the two London outposts of a Naples original dating back 150 years, which featured in Elizabeth Gilbert’s global bestseller ‘Eat Pray Love’. The toppings are “mostly traditional”, with some “interesting combinations and extras”. Don’t be misled by the “plain exterior, which makes it look like all the cheap restaurants and snack places along Baker Street” – this branch and its Soho sibling are “very good indeed”.
Summary
“Amazing, authentic pizzas” – “straight out of Naples” – are the USP at these Soho and Baker Street outposts of a Neapolitan business that traces its origins back to 1870 and which featured in Elizabeth Gilbert’s global hit ‘Eat Pray Love’. The newer Soho venue, on the former site of Patisserie Valerie, is a “wonderful dining space”. Top Tip: “the two Naples original pizzas (Marinara and Margherita) are the best”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
