Reviews for Pizza Fresco

by Lizzie 1st April 2013: I would not recommend this place to anyone.
The pizza tasted cheap and was not good at all, soggy and pretty bland. Some frozen pizzas are better to be honest.
By the way, I ordered a pepperoni pizza, but it didn’t have a single pepperoni piece on it – it was all salami. Come on, there is a difference between those two, and quite a big one!

Hi,
Sorry about today you had bad experience in Pizza Fresco. On our menu we already show the ingredient is salami on the pepperoni pizza. And could you please let me know what was the problem of the taste, it is really helpful for our improvement.
Thanks your feedback.
by Zarnya B. 9th February 2013: I came in today and had the worst pizza if my life.
One of the worst food experiences. The pizza was horrible totally inedible. I went to use the toilet and it was filthy, the restaurant itself was a mess. Such a waste of money, we will not be going back.

Thanks
by Adkin 20th December 2012: Had ordered a sienna pizza….at first the pizza was delivered the base was soggy and not worth of being called a pizza….. so I called them and they instantly delivered a new pizza within seconds…a good experience if they continue to meet Italian pizza standards… would recommend it to others…..!!!
by Tom W. 7th October 2012: Regardless of previous reviews the place is now excellent, with amazing pizzas, good service, free wifi and helpful staff!
Also their deal on sundays where if you buy a large pizza you get a selected medium pizza free is excellent!!
by Cary 8th February 2012: I had the best chicken/cranberry pizza EVER late last year using one of those daily deal vouchers. The toppings were plentiful, with slices of chicken and not diced up stuff from elsewhere. Went back the day after to try a different pizza!
Keep up with the great pizzas!
by Claire 8th October 2011: Have been to this pizzeria twice, and was very disappointed. Whilst the food is ok, the service is terrible. My partner and I sat there for a takeaway pizza, it took an hour to receive our order. We saw other people receive theirs, even though they arrived after us. We were not the only customers in the pizzeria who complained. Surely a pizza doesn’t take an hour???? The hygiene is also not so great.

Hello Claire. Thank you very much for your feed back and sorry about the delay. Could you please send me your home address, we would like to send you a cash voucher for our apologize.
by omnom 4th September 2011: Was very satisfied! Got both the Paris Chicken Cranberry and Brie and the Bangkok and they were delicious!

I was a bit hesitant to try them out after reading some of the reviews below but I am so glad I did! Will be going back sometime very soon
by Shaari 3rd September 2011: I came here recently with my father and the Kashmir chicken pizza was out of this world and was one of the best gourmet pizzas I have ever eaten. I am not a huge pizza fan, but this pizza was amazing and so flavoursome. Although the place was pretty crowded, the pizza arrived quickly and the staff person was very nice and friendly. All in all, it was a great experience and I will definitely be back for another Kashmir chicken pizza.
by Jonathon B. 22nd December 2009: I didn’t visit this place back when Kiwis owned it, but after I ordered some takeaway food there recently I saw something that made me wish I hadn’t. Right beside the counter in full view of the dining area was a filthy rubbish bin with coffee splatters dried all the way across the wall (apparently from rubbish being thrown from a distance). Lying on the floor near this bin was a filthy tea towel – couldnt tell its colour because it was almost black and looked like it had been there for decades. Flies were buzzing around it… If that is what the counter is like, what is the kitchen like?

Hello Jonathon. Sorry about the bad experience been made to you. The new ownership had been changed from April 2010. We spend lots of money and time on our menu and staff training since we take over. Business is going very well now and people loves our food and service. Please come back and try again. Please let us know if we did anything not correct. You feedback is always important to us! Thank you!
by Isabel 18th December 2009: Not sure if the other reviewers are visting at night, but we work across the road and often get pizzas for lunch, both eating in and ordering for work lunches. Have always found the food really yummy, and when eating there during the day it has been fine. They can be a it slow sometimes, but apart from that OK
by Rose J 9th January 2009: I was a regular customer when Pizza Fresco first opened, when it appeared to be run by a couple of kiwi boys. Back then the place was spotless and the customer service was excellent, I use to recommend it to my friends. But I now concur with the other review, the place is now filthy and I no longer dine there. I have seen staff outside smoking then go straight to the kitchen and start cooking without washing their hands…the last time I was there I ended up walking out without ordering. I am amazed at how quickly the standards and presentation have dropped, if I could I, wouldn’t even rate them one star, that is being way to generous.
