Much better than any of the American chain alternatives — classic thin crust that deliciously blistered and chewy, fresh toppings, reasonable prices, and fast! Among my favourite choices are the traditional Margherita (basil, tomato, mozzarella) and the Ruspante (including chicken and brie cheese). Either way, Basilico is my go-to choice for delivery in the neighbourhood… without a disappointing experience yet. One warning: the 13″ pizzas are not always sliced — if you are looking to share, may be worth it to ask them to cut the pie up.

Last night we decided to give Basilico a try because Firezza’s website burned us a couple times in the past. Bad idea. Let me walk you through our Basilico experience.
A: Looks like it’s a little light on the cheese.
E: Yes, but the crust looks nice and thin.
A: Too bad it tastes like cardboard.
**30 minutes later**
A: I feel sick.
E: Me too.

We had takeaway from here last week. I had a pizza with olives, pepperoni and ham, it was ok but quite salty for my tastes
Gill had a pizza blanco, apparently the mushrooms were horrible — they «tasted funny and looked funny», and the «brie didn’t work at all»
Presumably this means they are still using canned mushrooms but I’ve never come across one before so don’t know what they look like

Soggy pizza, with barely any topping, and a tomato base sauce so strong that it was difficult to eat — think they must have used concentrated tomato purée by mistake.
Wrote to complain to their customer service and have had no response, no acknowledgement. Says it all really. Basilico in other areas might be good but avoid the islington place

Simply the best take away pizza I’ve had — ever. We’ve had pizza all over the world and we like making our own pizza from scratch but when we are in a hurry or feeling lazy then Basilico’s 4 cheese with extra tomato sauce, garlic & sometimes olives is as good as it gets. Their large size feeds three to four people in our experience and the only problem you will have is fighting over who has the last piece. Super fast delivery if you live near their restaurant.
