Pizzeria Oregano - London

This local pizza place is simple and unassuming. My partner and I stopped by on a Saturday night and were able to find a table easily, as the restaurant is tucked away on a quiet side street. We were pleasantly surprised to receive a complimentary plate of delicious marinated olives at the start of our meal. We decided to order the orecchiette broccoli e salsiccia pasta (broccoli and sausage) and the Toscana pizza (salami, pecorino, tomatoes, and basil). Both dishes were tasty, although we wished there was a bit more broccoli in the pasta. I also tried a special beer called Isaac, which was fantastic - my partner even enjoyed it. The service was friendly, although there was some confusion when we presented a Yelp check-in offer for a free glass of house wine. After a brief explanation, we did receive the glass of wine, with a good-natured smile from the staff. Overall, a pleasant dining experience at this hidden gem.

My boyfriend and I went here today for lunch and were very pleased. For me, it was the best pizza I've had so far in London (I must say I haven't researched enough on that, as I've donde on ice creams parlours . The base was incredibly thin, it probably defied some laws of Physics, and I love that in a pizza. The ingredients were also superb. I don't remember the names of the pizzas we ordered, but mine had cherry tomatoes, provolone (apart from usual tomato sauce and mozzarella and rocket. They were very fresh, especially the rocket, with plenty of flavour, so delicious. The other pizza had parma ham, very nice, and mushrooms (maybe too few and too small ones . Price was OK, I think, because the pizzas were just huge, I could eat a bit more than half of mine and my boyfriend did a big effort to eat the rest and his : The staff was helpful and correct, not very friendly though, but with those pizzas I didn't really mind. The only reason for what I don't give the place 5 stars is because they didn't put oregano in the pizza! I'm a truly oregano fan and was very disappointed. Such a betrayal to their own name...

This is one of my favorite pizza places in London. As their description states, they offer generous portions and prioritize quality and taste. They consistently meet my expectations and I always come here when I'm in the mood for pizza. The pizzas are delicious, with a thin crust that has a satisfying crunch. The pasta dishes are also fantastic, with perfectly cooked al dente noodles and delicious flavor. The staff here is top-notch, always friendly and welcoming.

Hidden in a charming alley off Upper Street, Oregano feels like a hidden gem known only to locals. The decor may not be outstanding, but it's not off-putting either. The service is decent, and the real highlight is the delicious wood-fired pizza with great toppings that won't break the bank. Despite its popularity, Oregano tends to stay busy, which adds to its appeal. The only downside is that there isn't much to set it apart from the many other dining options on Upper Street, unless you're simply looking for something different.

Nonpretentious and serves really good pizza. What more do you need to know? Seriously, REALLY good pizza ... As stated by my friend: better than any pizza I 've had outside of Rome and that is a very bold statement. Until you try their seafood pasta cooked in tin foil. I now crave it on a weekly basis. Thanks a lot. It 's in the alley next to slash behind Euphoria Bakery .. and they are normally only open for dinner .... but the place is so good it 's worth the wait.
