Zia Lucia - Canary Wharf

Hands down my favourite pizza in london ! Pizzas super fresh with the perfect crust - chewy and fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside without being soggy like some places. Toppings are delicious and generous. Recommend the Arianna sbagliata (truffle, honey, Gorgonzola cheese with charcoal crust) and tartufo nell’universo (truffle with stuffed crust). Service quick and friendly. Plenty of seating inside with seats outside too.

For a week now I’ve noticed the sign of this restaurant when going to work. It said “authentic pizza”. It made me debate with my friend who was saying she doubts it so I had to check. I won :) the pizza is exactly as tasty as you can expect …. and a big bonus for me, the lager beer is the another separate reason why I would visit this place because it seems to me most other places have mediocre lager. The service is authentically italian style :) and brings with it the emotions you’d normally experience in italy - personality and dignity. Btw, I got my beer, my pizza and sauce exactly fit for my huge hunger and thirst 🔥

The pizza dough was fantastic, probably the best I have had, the service was fantastic the lady was quick and helpful. Nice location, atmosphere was nice, even the choice in music was good. My only issue was the the table we sat one was slightly sticky and my pizza was slightly soggy.

2nd time in Zia Lucia, 1st time in this branch. I brought my family this time and they love it. It's delicious and fulfilling as always and people in the restaurant are accommodating. We'll definitely visit again!

Yesterday, we dropped in Zia Lucia at Canary Wharf and ordered the Centurione pizza as a take away. The preparation process took place in front of us. First, we noticed the pizza base had been prepared before we arrived, left on the preparation table for some time and therefore was cold. Second, it became obvious that the staff didn't know the recipe and where to place the ingredients. Then, the staff member had carelessly given our order in a box, strangely not even looking at us. However, the worst part was when we arrived home and we opened the box and started cutting the pizza. It was badly burnt in the middle, and the staff knew about it but tried to hide this fact by placing ham and rocket on it (see pictures). The people working in this particular branch seem very incompetent and acting dishonestly. This experience has convinced us that we will never go to this restaurant again. And do not recommend it to anyone!

Very good pizza and the dark dough fits very well. Also the service was good and the pizza was ready in just a few minutes. Sitting outside was also nice given the warm temperatures while it was nicely in thr shade. Only directly by the water it would have been even nicer to eat. Only negative is the price which for a pizza chain was quite steep with around GBP 36 for a pizza, a beer and a coke zero.

These pizza's were unexpectedly good. The dough is airy and bubbly, but the tomato sauce is what makes them stand out. They are also large, which is a pity, because none of us had room left for desert. The staff is really welcoming and very nice. If you stay at Canary Wharf or you happen to be near, then you should pay a visit.

I had the pleasure of dining at Zia Lucia last weekend. It’s a quiet local spot in Canary Wharf, just off the river, perfect for a business lunch or a dinner date. The service is quick and friendly and, perhaps most importantly, the pizza is excellent! The head chef, Romy (who happily accommodated our preferences and made some great suggestions) takes obvious pride in his work and it shows in the presentation.
