Pizza Go Go Southampton 1 — Restaurant in Southampton

First of all, a caveat - I have never eaten Pizza Gogo whilst sober. Were I to be ordering in a romantic dinner for a hypothetical partner and I to share, I may well look elsewhere. Pizza Gogo is not a gourmet establishment. I've eaten pizza in Brooklyn whose delicate texture and gentle fragrances gave me a Proustian nostalgia for an Italian upbringing that I never had. Pizza Gogo will not give you this. What it will give you is competently made, well cooked drunk food. For that alone, it should be celebrated.

In an alley full of late-night food vendors, Pizza Gogo stands out as one of the few places which provides consistently good food at a reasonable price, with a minimum of time and effort. The staff not only manage to crack an unearned smile every time some drunk oaf makes an innuendo about the 'Meaty One' pizza, but give a highly professional service to a customer base which ranges from the mildly irritating to the out-and-out obnoxious.

Most important of all is the simple fact that Pizza Gogo cook their pizzas properly. Unlike certain other local suppliers, these pizza slices will not have to be folded into a Calzone-esque grease valley in order to be consumed in the first place. Pizzas from Pizza Gogo are solid, stodgy and unimaginative, but they nonetheless represent the peak of their artform. You wouldn't go to see Swan Lake and expect a rousing singalong, and you wouldn't go to Pizza Gogo to impress your mum. And that's fine.

Sure, the ingredients are bland and the menu derivative. Sure, the location is smack-bang in the middle of Southampton's Drunk Zone. Granted. Nonetheless, if you're in the area and fancy a decent meal after a few drinks, there simply isn't a better place. Highly...

Edit: my mate eat the pizza when I wasnt looking

Starting with the positives, the pizzas pretty nice. The problem is when you pay for it like I did Saturday, and don't actually get a pizza. I would say paying for it and then not getting it is one of the worst ways to enjoy cheese and tomato topped bread.

After paying £19 for a pizza, drink and Häagen Dazs (the most delicious accompaniment to a chicken pizza) and not taking a receipt, I was handed a drink and ice cream with no pizza. I was told I didn't order a pizza. Although I refunded the ice cream and drink (because even when drunk you cant have ice cream without a main course) my bank balance today shows I did in fact pay for it.

I can only hope they use the money I gave them to partially fund a system that makes sure it doesn't happen to anyone else. Perhaps something outlandish like a pen and paper? Who knows. I'm no food...

We are regular customers here, never had a better pizza anywhere else. Unfortunately just recently in the last couple of months, the person that answers the phone has been very rude and has even hung up on us twice when we've tried to resolve an issue with the order we placed on the just eat app as the app has had issues which we tried to explain to said member of staff. Like I said, the food is absolutely perfect... Unfortunately the service of the staff ( this one member of staff in particular that answers the phone) has gone downhill. We love ordering from here, but if this continues we will have to find someone else because this attitude towards customers, especially regulars, is not only rude but disrespectful and we won't put up with it. Come on management, sort...
