The Honest Italian in Wandsworth

I ordered a Prosciutto pizza with extra mixed peppers, costing a total of £14. The below is what I got. A pizza with ham and less than a handful of tiny pepper squares. The pizza itself was also inedible.We also ordered the Antipasti selection which came with 1 sun dried tomato, and 2 small triangles of pizza base dough in place of the bread advertised. Really disappointed in the quality and will not be ordering from here again.

Finally happy I've found a decent pizza. Tried a lot in local area none really hit the spot till now. Had the Diavola. Could have been a bit hotter (temperature) as im only up the road but a minor issue and didn't detract from the tasty and light pizza. Doesn't come sliced fyi.

Terrible experience, anything but Honest! They should change the name since it is an offence to real Italian culture.No idea of what a marinara pizza was, after we explained we end up with a garlic pizza base spread with a thin layer of tomato sauce; left alone the Negroni, served in a highball topped up with lemonade! When my husband, an Italian bartender for over 20 years in Italy and London, asked to make sure, they told him very rudely he should thank his friends from South Italy that taught the bartender.It wasn't the most inviting staff from minute one, but went worse after that. They presented the bill, not a word, no thanks or anything, we paid, again no thanks, no bye, not a single word.Rude staff, poor service, non existent Italian culture knowledge to be called Honest Italian.Oh! The fresh apple juices for my kids were amazing.Do not recommend

Amazing pizzas, would definitely recommend to those looking for a pizza restaurant to go to! Great staff, great food and lots of options to choose from

Favourite pizza in Balham! Great menu and really fresh pizzas. They do the best garlic bread too. Staff are always friendly and service is great, really recommend.

I went here for an evening meal with a friend and really glad that I did, the pizza base was the right thickness, it was nice and crispy on the edges and the dough was not soggy towards the middle. I ordered the vegetarian pizza and you can see clearly that the ingredients was fresh and was freshly prepared. The customer service was good and the waiter was attentive. I sat outside as it was sunny but you can see that inside the restuarant it was intimate and welcoming, you see can the chef making the pizza and cooking it in the wood fire oven giving the reastuarnt a feel of home. I would recommend the Honest Italian to my friends.

So this place was recommended by my boyfriend who said they did great pizzas. Firstly I need to mention that I’m Italian and I know enough about pizzas.My boyfriend had forgotten his mask and rather than politely offer him a mask they said we can to eat outside. It wasn’t a warm evening and had been raining. I politely asked if they had a mask. Without responding the guy went to a cupboard at got one from a box. My boyfriend took it and we walked 2 steps to our table before removing our masks.Before I chose my Rocket pizza I asked if the Parma ham was Prosciutto crudo as I know from experience that it sometimes means cooked ham which I didn’t want. A Rocket pizza traditionally comes with shavings of Parmesan cheese and that’s what the menu said.The pizza base was very good which is why I gave this review this amount of stars but it was definitely was not Parmesan cheese. It was rubber and tasteless. The sauce was minimal and the Prosciutto was salty. Customer service when we arrived was not friendly. Honest Italian… not really.. sorry!!

Amazing! Real authentic taste, just like the traditional pizza made by family run restaurants in small Italian towns. Lovely restaurant for eat in, but they are also have take away (you can collect or buy via apps such as Deliveroo).

Best pizza ever! The bases are beautifully thin, crispy and light and the toppings are excellent and full of taste. Faultless!Sadly i have only had the misfortune of having food delivered from Deliveroo who are a total waste of space when it comes to service and delivering warm food - so i usually have to reheat my orders - but the pizzas are so good this is not usually an issue.I see others have commented on this and i can assure you that Deliveroo do not give refunds on cold deliveries

We had a perfect dinner sitting outside the restaurant enjoying a couple of chilled beers and some seriously tasty pizza. And guess what? The toppings were REALLY generous for once in London! I only took a pic of the garlic bread because as soon as I saw my pizza I had to just eat it, I was so hungry. The staff were friendly and the vibe was really relaxed and happy. Thanks guys!
