Tucked away on the second floor of Plassio Mall in Lucknow, Jamie's Pizzeria offers a visit that presents a mix of hits and misses. Upon arrival, the initial impression is of a convenient, if not particularly distinctive, location within the mall's bustling framework. The menu, while promising, comes at a premium price point that, regrettably, doesn't always align with the quality delivered. While the ingredients were fresh, the final product lacked a certain finesse, leaving one to question the value proposition. Furthermore, the ambience was significantly hampered by the mall's constant activity. The high noise level made it challenging to hold a conversation, which detracted from what should have been a relaxing dining experience. The acoustics of the space seem ill-suited for a quiet meal.

They used good ingredients and the pizza was fine, but a little under-cooked for my preference. The chef did not understand the difference between a charred exterior on a neapolitan pizza vs a crispy well done pizza. I prefer the former, but the chef only understood the latter.

Not bad,...
Read moreAfter getting burnt in the scorching heat of Lucknow, and only a few hours to spare before the flight, we decided to head to the Phoenix Palassio mall in Lucknow. Jamie's Pizzeria is located inside the mall and was empty around 5PM when we decided to indulge in some good food after being exhausted throughout the day.
The pizzeria didn't disappoint us at all. We had ordered a fiery fries, a veg pasta (Red rocket) with red sauce and Chicken pram which I requested in white sauce instead of red. The chef was kind enough to obliged and the dish turned out to be amazing. We had also ordered Lemony ginger beer and homemade Iced tea. Both the beverages were good.
Restaurant accepts all modes of payment and also levies service charge (I assume which can be removed if you don't want to pay as per the...
