One of the best Italians Ive been to in a while! The only reason I didnt give this place a 5* rating is because – unfortunately – the location is quite small and the back-room is not very appealing. Nonetheless, the food is to die for! The pizzas are delicious as are the starters. I would recommend the burrata as a starter, and the meat balls are mandatory! Santa Maria also delivers food, but nothing compares to the freshly oven-baked pizza arriving at your table. I probably go there more than once a month, so obviously, I would recommend a visit!
You can’t get a more authentic Italian pizza place than Santa Maria. It’s extremely busy in the evenings all the days. We had the focaccia bread with aubergine and tomato sauce and it was extremely tasty. For mains we ordered two pizzas- Santa Mattia- which was extremely tasty with buffalo mozzarella, mushrooms and truffle oil, and Santa Catarina which had green chillies. I thought I could handle chillies but this one was really spicy and we couldn’t finish it. So order this one with caution. The size of the pizzas is a bit big for one but small for two. They serve very good house wines and gellato. To summarize, good handmade pizzas with minimal toppings and great taste.
There are pizzas and then there are Neapolitan pizzas, well the later is not enjoyed by everyone but i for one relish it for sure. Santa maria made exceptionally good Neapolitan pizzas.We went for Santa bufalina – buffalo mozzarella with parmesan – everything was perfect except too much of parmesan and very little buffalo mozzarella, would have enjoyed more if the same was reversedWe then tried Santa Carmela – this one was made perfectThe best part of the meal surprisingly was not pizza but smoked buffalo mozzarella in marinara sauce – MUST TRY !
Came here as it was recommended by ‘Time Out’. Very cramped, rather than cosy. Staff were monosyllabic bordering on rude. Ordered 3 pizzas; mine and my wife’s were ok but nothing special. The crust of my son’s pizza was profoundly burnt ( he said it was but l didn’t take much notice of him; I tried it when he didn’t want anymore and it was, indeed, well and truly burnt but between us we’d eaten most of it so weren’t in a position to complain) and the topping was soggy. Bog standard ‘Ask’ stuff is preferable to this. The restaurant filled up while we were there, presumably with people who had never been there before, and the place became claustrophobic. Not a pleasant experience, I’d say.
So having restarted Uni and being bored of the canteen food, I opted to venture out and try something in the area.Holy moly! The name says it all!!!! Santa Mariiiiiiaaaaa! I opted for the Santa Mattia which came not even 8 minutes after ordering! Large stone baked pizza literally to die for!!! Staff were engaging, friendly and helpful.The flavours were simply incredible and the dough had the right amount of crisp to it. Your pizza experience will never be the same!!!!Grazie mille!! Round the corner from uni? I’m guessing that I’m gonna be a regular here
I wouldn’t deny my love for napoli pizza and that is what drew me to this place and boy…it gets really crowded in here which is a testament of its popularity. Loved it to the core…so much so that i didn’t leave even the slightest glimpse of crumbs on my plate….go for it
right!! of course the pizza here is good but the staff is just one the worst you can ever expect!! been here at least 6-7 times cause again pizza is one of the best in london but those people there think they are selling gold not pizza. I would change the entire staff (a part of the pizzaiolo of course 🙂 )
