Pizza East - Portobello
Just like our big brother in Shoreditch, while we take our pizza seriously the setting is very relaxed. We’ve stripped the building’s interior back and created a light and airy space with wooden floors and huge windows, then filled it with beautiful vintage cafe furniture. The in-house wood-fired ovens and open ground floor kitchen mean there are great views to be had inside, especially from the antique stools at the counter, or you can sit outside and watch the world go by.
Our upstairs dining room is an even more laid-back sitting room, as is our terrace, a little green haven away from the hustle of town, where you can have drinks or dinner.

Great staff. Very friendly
Great experience and services. Can step up the pizza quality !
The French lady on the door who is the maitre de was amazing, as was all of the team upstairs, we had a big party with lots of kids and everyone was so nice, accommodating, relaxed and helpful. Even when we stayed well past our slot, everyone was lovely about asking us to move on. Great evening, great team, thank you xx
Amazing food served piping hot.
Really friendly and attentive service - thank you again.
Really delicious food with lovely wine - staff are so kind and accommodating! Couldn’t recommend this place more.
Unique restaurant with amazing food, one of the best pizzas I've ever had.
Friendly and trendy staff.
Will definitely come back.
I can't say enough good things about Pizza East, the service I received was really of utmost quality and that was all due to the Manager Sarrah (no I don't know her but feel like I do now after the care and effort she placed into making our dinner a night to remember. She's the definition of service with a smile and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great night, we hadn't been sitting at our table for 15 seconds before she arrived with some bread and olive oil-very much appreciated after the two mile walk to get there). I used to work for Disney and train Guest Service in our employees & Sarrah embodied these same types of superior talents and she is why my wife and I will return. The truffle pizza was out of this world as well. Thank you Pizza East for once again providing a memorable evening with stellar food.
Great staff. Very friendly and accommodating. Best pizzas around
Super really. Shame it’s expensive, but worth it’s
Nice place for simple classic dishes
I booked for lunch with my 3 old friends and we were given a fantastic table - with great service and the most delicious food, we all enjoyed ourselves enormously and I have already booked to come back - many thanks to all.
We love Pizza east! Delicious. We come here often for our team lunches. x
Best pizza in town
Best pizzeria experience! Best vibes! Best pizza ever! Such fine ingredients and fine quality! Another level of pizza
Incredible service! We were very very well greeted and seated by the loveliest of hosts!
I highly credit the team and especially Sara who enhanced our experience and hospitality by miles!
Can’t wait to go again
Been 3 times this week alone 😁
Looooove the pizza best in the world!
lovely place, lovely food and wine, lovely service too
We just love Pizza East Portobello. Divine atmosphere, service, ingredients - and of course heavenly pizza.
Everything was perfect. Great food, atmosphere and lovely service!
Very bad experience paying a hefty price. Had 2 pizzas, both undercooked, both spicy and oily. My wife did not finish hers because she could not continue with the spiciness, we ended up eating next door after we had pizza...pathetic.
Service was dismissive, felt like they did not want our business. Never going back again.
Charged 60£ for 2 pizzas and 2 glasses of wine, absurd!
Hi Craciun, Hope you are well. I am sorry to hear about this - what is the best email to contact you on to follow up on this? Thank you Georgia
I do enjoy going to Pizza East but it does surprise me how expensive it is compared to more exclusive, independent restuarants in the same area or even central london.

Food was terrible and overpriced even more since lockdown
We often come here, as the food is nice, good prices and it's a buzzing, fun ambience. Very child friendly too, lots of families, but also nice to go with some friends. Has a lot of outdoor seating now too which is nice, although inside is just as nice.
Great pizza and drinks! What else can you ask for? Will definitely go back!
We hadn't been to Pizza East for ages but we found that every element - food, service and ambience - were better than they used to be.
A lot of the items on the menu eg the Crab Bruschetta which my friend and I loved, were, thankfully, not Pizza, and there were some delicious desserts as well eg an excellent lemon meringue pie.
A number of people served us and they all had a great, relaxed, friendly vibe.
Fabulous afternoon, sitting in the sun, great staff, food and wine
Took my daughter and her friend and they said it was the best pizza they’d ever had. The menu is limited but what they do, they do well. Lovely crisp light pizzas.
Friendly efficient staff, great food & wine choice.
Waiting staff and bar staff were attentive and efficient. The managers were not so friendly, I was on crutches and they didn’t move out of my way or offer assistance.
Ambience was relaxed and the noise level was ok . Overall a nice Saturday lunch although vegan options would be appreciated and would update the menu .
Fab food and wonderful service, would definitely recommend.
Great food, highly recommended - will be back for sure
Great pizzas and lovely service, good value for the quality
First time we’ve been and we were nicely impressed. The stripped back bare walls and ceiling gave a modern contemporary feel which was welcoming and the tables were well spaced.
Food was good, a short menu is a good sign that everything will be cooked to order and it was. Lovely crusty bread with olive oil was perfect accompaniment to pre dinner drink. The crab bruschetta was delicious and piled high ( though it was £14 )
Pizzas toppings were generous and tasty.
The staff were delightful.
Would definitely go back
the staff where so kind. The food was brilliant :)
Great pizza and great service. Always a good atmosphere.
So pleased to be going back I do like PE Porto a lot, if i do have criticisms then the beef carpaccio had far too much olive oil on it, it really shouldnt have any but it was gratefully changed . the avocados tasted strange but i ate them anyway the pizzas were of course wonderful. i'll be back soon
Food was lovely and service was fast and super polite. They also played great music!
Great local pizza eatery - great atmosphere and friendly staff!
I love this restaurant, the food is always good and the service just right.
Lovely ambience, food and service. Would recommend.
The food is great, and the staff is amazing! Going out for us means people that serve to be at their best and they were absolutely wonderful!
We spilled a drink and they helped us to clear up, when in reality they don’t have to, so cheers to them and a big thank you!
Good ambience and good service. Truffle pizza = terrible. Overpriced for very dry pizza.
