They have a small but reasonable selection of wine, although don't always expect the server to know much about them (they all seem very young, or maybe I'm old now), "dry white" was the description for the house white and when asked if know the grapes or how it taste, "nop it's just dry I dont know anything about the wine", however saying this if I was really fussed (which I wasn't and changed to a red by then), I could have asked to try it This is a place where you need to go when your v hungary and not on a diet to fit in the full 1st, 2nd and 3rds - the experience won't dissapoint. The Rosemary bread as a starter is to die for and the vanilla gelato with expresso shot - well what's not to like, simple sweet and bitter (although also know the chocolate desserts are also worth a try - assuming you have room left) Oh and a couple more logistic points, it has a good atmosphere, they have this one (busy / trending(ish) area of leigh, essex) and another location in rayleigh Essex (this is quieter but building is a lot more impressive)

Me and my partner decided to try this restaurant on a whim because of our random obsession with…read moreitalian food. Honestly we wasn't disappointed, the atmosphere for a relatively small but lively restaurant was incredible everywhere your head turned people was smiling. I went for a Mussels starter which was amazing and the portion was huge i could of had it for a main! Then i had a Pizza and i am very picky with Pizza kinda my favourite takeaway put jeez it put me off my local pizza joint it was that good. Lastly for desert i had the profiteroles the chocolate sauce over it was thick and extremely rich and the cream inside was satisfying! I've not got much of a sweet tooth myself so maybe this was a little to much for me but still delicious! The only thing that upset me was that when i wanted to give a tip both of us had forgot to bring cash and they wouldn't accept one through card. In conclusion if you love italian and great service then go to The Flying Pasta just make sure you bring some cash to tip! They deserve it.

Located near rivals Super Pizza, who are pretty much the same outfit in a different outfit, (if you…read moreget what I mean), this place is OK, but slightly worse than Super Pizza, (though they're still good in their own right). The staff are friendly and polite, and will talk with you whilst you're waiting for your order. Offering a wide range of food from pizza's to burgers, and at a budget price, (though the price does reflect the quality I feel, but not to the extent where you don't find it tasty), Pizza Man is a decent establishment, and also sells soft drinks. Offering a take-out and collection service, it's a nice place to get a snack or late-night meal on your way back from the movies or club.

You cannot fault the price of one of there 9'' pizzas for £2.95 with 2 toppings. As well as this, they can also make kebabs, burgers and chicken & chips.

My review of this establishment is pretty poor. That said, the pizzas were lovely!…read more First I couldn't find a parking space. It appeared that a the Dominos delivery drivers had stolen all available spaces for their cars. On entering the shop, I was faced with a very miserable girl who obviously didn't want to work there. I ordered my pizza and asked what chicken dishes were involved in the 2 for 1 sides deal. I got a roll of the eyes and then a pretty blunt answer. The same girl then asked her colleagues something and when he replied, she belittled him in front of everyone including the customers. I got the feeling then she was a supervisor or manager. I them was told it would take about 20 minutes. I sat down waited for my food. The counter tops were all dirty. There were dead bugs and flies also on the counter tops. People were eating their food here!! I then witnessed some people that the same girl knew getting discounts on their food. I know this happens, but don't rub my face in it after I've just spent £35 and they are getting loads forests than a tenner! After nearly 20 minutes, The computer screen then told me my food was done, 8 minutes later I actually got called over and told my food was ready. (a bit like being in Argos). Not my best experience!

Their menu, as the name suggests, is primarily pasta and pizza but their fish dishes are great and I highly recommend the trout with almonds.

Pizza express is part of a big UK chain of resturants. I've been to several around the UK, and…read moreoverall Southend's one does not stand out very much. The decor and lighting are quite dark in here, and it often can feel quite cramped if the place is full. However, the food is very nice (if a little over priced) and offeres mainly pizza but with some pasta and salad dishes, and the staff are happy to make alterations to the dishes on the menu, if you have any dietary needs or are just fussy!! There is a small outside are to sit, but the view is not nice (just of a road and a car park). The staff always seem to be friendly and helpful and i do like the fact that you can watch the chefs cook your meal!! You can sometimes make reservations, but if they have a big party in you can't and just have to turn up and hope for the best - i don't understand why they do this it would be better to just book up and tell people they are fully booked!

They can order a little complimentary side salad with their meal and they even get a baby chino (a small cup of frothy milk with chocolate sprinkled on top) after their dessert! They also get a little pack of colouring stuff and other bits too. Their pizzas are great, dough balls a must and their salads are just amazing. The staff, at least in our local branch in Southend, are always friendly and great with the children.
