There are also many gluten-free and sugar-free products for special diets. They are pretty pricey (a little more expensive than some other health food shops for some items) but they stock many things that I am unable to purchase elsewhere (eg nutritional yeast flakes). They do not often reduce items, which is a shame and it would be great if they offered a loyalty card but these are my only complaints!

It's a great place to have a meal with a larger group of people, and relatively quiet too. I ordered the fried haddock with baby potatoes. It was prepared quite promptly, and the service was friendly too. The portion sizes are huge! If you don't have a big appetite, just get one portion and share. The tartar sauce is also made in house. They have any veggie options so vegetarian people can enjoy too! The fish itself was very fresh, and it was quite delicious! Despite the portion size I was able to finish everything! And I just love the baby potatoes - just boiled but so good! I'll definitely bookmark this place for next time I visit London!

Well on my most recent trip this began to unravel as I had a great yet simple main and it was on the two course menu as well. It was just an Italian sausage pasta - which was very similar to an n'duja but not nearly as spicy. The ragu was great and I really like how they do their garlic bread now too. I've always rated the Pinner branch as one of the best of the chain, and now with the improvements to the menu it can only get better.

I had a really enjoyable Sunday lunch at Carluccio's, which tempted me into their establishment…read morewith a beautiful bakery window display and promises of a reasonably priced two course lunch. There are a number of Italian restaurants on High Street in Pinner, but this one has a light and airy atmosphere that set it apart from its compatriots. It looks to have been very carefully renovated, with a clean and organic look, and lovely bathrooms. We did not have to wait to be seated. My partner and I ordered a Three-Pastas-for-Two-People tasting menu, which came to 21 pounds even -- not bad considering that individual plates of pasta range from 7.5 to 11.5 and the term "tasting menu" is in a way decieving because all three pastas are full size. We selected the Penne Arrabiata, which was fantasticly savoury with Kalamata olives and capers and just the right amount of oil (often this dish is too oily!). We also enjoyed the special Penne with Zucchini and Fried Spinach Balls -- I know it sounds odd, but we were intrigued and this dish was surprisingly delicious! The Porcini mushroom pasta, while good, was outshone by the excellence of our two other selections. I'm Italian and cook my own Italian food, so my standards for Italian restaurants are unduly harsh, and I actually really enjoyed everything and would certainly return. I estimate only 15% of Italian restaurants I try reach this mark. Eagerly looking forward to dessert, my partner ordered an Italian hot chocolate which was excellent and on the lighter side with a good head of foam. I picked the compelling sounding Bicerin -- you recieve three little pots which contain espresso (your choice of beans), thick Floretine drinking chocolate, and cream. This was also my ploy to also try the Floretine drinking chocolate which my partner worried might be too intense, though fear not, because it was amazing and would be what I ordered next time. I'm not the biggest fan of say, Cafe Mocha, so this didn't radically change my mind about the combination of coffee and chocolate the way I hoped it would. But I did have fun playing with the ratios and experimenting, so I think it's an excellent way to see if anything could change your mind about that combination. From the bakery section, my partner had the deep chocolate cake with vanilla bean ice cream (you may add a scoop of ice cream to any bakery selection for I believe another 1 or 2 pounds) and I had a plum tart. I'm embarrassed to admit I find cream products like custard or, well, cream, slightly intimidating so I deeply enjoyed that the plum tart was simply plum and pastry without any sea of unknown gloopy dairy. The cake was deliciously chocolatey without being overwhelming, which was important since we were having warm chocolate drinks. The service, while initially seeming to be about one person understaffed (it's actually quite a large establishment as you start walking towards the back) bounced back as who I assume to be the manager stopped by our table and helped us with our desserts. He was very friendly and attentive. Technically, my review is a rounded up 4.5, because there are a few nitpicks. Everything is hard surfaces and hardwood, and the tables are packed quite densely in there, which means quite a bit of noise if the restaurant is busy. Secondly, while I believe the food is good enough to warrant the price, it doesn't give you the swelling feeling of "great value" -- just "fair value." They have special menus for things like Christmas, and also have a little shop up front along with their bakery that sells a variety of tasty tidbits and coffee. I'll definitely return!

We passed by several location of Pizza Express and were intrigued, so on our final day there we stopped by to see what it was all about. Coming from the states, having "Express" in the name of any restaurant immediately brings to mind "fast food" "low quality" "greasy" "blah", but this establishment couldn't be any further from that. The menu was expansive, with pizzas ranging from the "American Hot" to the Margherita. Everything was freshly made to order, flavorful, and affordable. I ordered from the "Leggera" menu, which was a list of lightened up options and it was great. The tomato and mozzarella appetizer was good as well. The staff were attentive, polite, and eager to make sure everything was exactly what we wanted it to be. Two thumbs up.

I came here for dinner twice while working in the area; both times were Monday evenings around 6:30…read morepm. We didn't have to wait in a queue or anything to pay, but the restaurant was fairly busy both times we went. The staff were friendly and polite. The first time I came here, I tried to pay with my American bank card (which has usually worked fine abroad), but they weren't able to accept it and I had to go to a nearby ATM. The staff were patient and apologetic about it, however. The restaurant is a lot bigger than it looks on the outside. The placemat has a map, which is pretty amusing but not super necessary to study. It's easy to just go around the stations. The farthest stations from the main seating area are the Italian, Mediterranean, and Brazilian stations; both times we went, the seating around that area was empty--probably they just try to seat everyone in the same area to make it easier to clean up. There were pizzas, paella, salads, and pastas in the Italian and Mediterranean area, and also a server who walked around with Brazilian meat on a stake. In addition, there was a variety of Asian stations, including sushi, Chinese food, dim sum, a Thai curries/soups/stir-fry, and Indian food. The starters section was mostly fried food like fries, mini samosas, and spring rolls. There was a huge selection of desserts, including mini mousses, ice cream, and an Eton mess, among others. There's a chocolate fountain, but I didn't find there was that much to dip in the chocolate. There was an okay selection of fruit, but nothing overly fresh or impressive. The drinks area included complimentary soda, water, fruit juice, and coffee. There's definitely a wide selection, and for less than £20 a head, it's a pretty good deal if you're hungry. None of the food is of particularly impressive quality, but it's all pretty tasty and it's a good choice if you're with a group of people with different tastes. Some of the dishes/plates didn't look completely clean, but that was fairly rare. The servers were usually quick about clearing the old plates off the table.
