Solid wood-fired pizza, no fuss
Basilico in Marylebone is a solid choice if you're craving authentic wood-fired pizza without the pretension. The Margherita is particularly good—thin crust, fresh buffalo mozzarella, and a generous amount of basil that actually tastes like basil. They've got plenty of vegetarian and vegan options too, which is refreshing in a pizza place. The delivery service is prompt and keeps the pizza hot, which speaks to their operational efficiency.
It's not a destination for a romantic evening or a special occasion—the space is functional and the vibe is more about getting good food quickly. But for a reliable, no-nonsense pizza spot that delivers on its promise of quality Italian ingredients, Basilico hits the mark. Locals seem to appreciate the consistency, and the loyalty program is a nice touch for regulars.
