Storia Tring — Restaurant in Dacorum

I have rarely tasted such a terrible pizza. Dear Sir or Madam, as you said that you don't take my review seriously and asked if I am a relative of an ex-employee (I would hope you don't have any ex-employees as you have only been open a few months) I thought I'd elaborate on my original review so that you can have some proper feedback and maybe improve your menu. I am Italian and have lived in Italy for 30 years so I believe I know what a pizza should taste and look like. Your Margherita Regina (Regina Margherita in Italian) pizza was completely covered with very garlicky and vinegary tomatoes which completely overpowered the taste of the pizza. Thank God I asked not to add the balsamic glaze as the vinegary taste would have been even worse. The mozzarella, which you described as bufala, was not stringy at all, it looked and tasted much more like if it was supermarket bought pizza than buffalo, soft and stringy mozzarella. My daughter asked for a basic margherita and, once again, had something that resembled a pizza from Tesco (no offence to Tesco's pizza). I have had a look at other reviews online that you have received and you don't seem to be able to accept any criticism well which is why I decided not to embarrass you in front of the entire table. The pizzas on your menu are nothing like Italian pizzas and all and every one of them have at least one ingredient that is not supposed to be there. I have been in pizzerias in Italy where they have the most varied menus and never, ever have seen bechamell sauce on a pizza, for example, or pumpkin sauce instead of tomato (you do seem to have removed that one from your original menu published when you opened). There is no need to reply to this review with more dismissive comments, but thank...

Came here for a birthday meal, large party, 10 of us, we were sat in a downstairs area with another big party, unfortunately that didn't start things great as it was really quite dark and dingy down there and we felt very isolated from the rest of the restaurant. Service wasn't great as was impossible to service unless someone came down (which wasn't often) one starter came as everyone else had finished, no apology. Food good, however the pizza was average not what, you'd expect, also no pizza cutter? Having to cut your pizza with a knife and fork felt a bit messy and was an inconvenience. Dessert was taken incorrectly, we had 2 extra, and the lemon posset was just not set, it was a liquid of lemon, we were told it was a fresh bath which is why they were runny, but surely just, don't serve them then? Would have rather not have had it. Deposit having a few issues during the evening, when it came to paying there felt an added pressure by the server to...

Cannot recommend, the pizzas are the best in town, generous sizes, fresh and flavoursome ingredients. Posh without the price tag and very attentive staff! I just hope they stay this way!!

Update 24/08/2022 - been a few times last year and has been good, however went recently after awhile - the Pizza is no where near as good as it was the base was hard to chew, the pizza tasted very tomatoey - and toppings & cheese majorly reduced compared to last year - I could hardly taste the Njuda which is arguably the best part of the Salsiccia pizza. I thought it may have just been me but my thoughts were mirrored by the rest of my party. Sad as I enjoyed coming here - review updated from 5 to 3 stars. Atmosphere is still good, staff on the whole were fine, although I asked to have parmesan on my pizza, my wife was getting ready to ask for some too (and you could tell she was going to ask something) but the waiter just zoomed off straight away without...
