LardButty food reviews

Anyone who likes a good stone-baked, Italian-style pizza will know how difficult it is, to get it delivered in the Lewisham area of South East London (sure, deliveries from the likes of Papa John’s, Domino’s, Pizza Hut, etc are plentiful – say no more).

But then I saw this instagram post by @SouthLondonClub about Luciano’s:

Being late home from work this evening, I decided to give them a try. I phoned and ordered two 12″ pizzas. I was unable to order salads and side veggies as apparently their kitchen where ‘other food’ is prepared was out of order. I was told that only the pizza kitchen was working. So I ordered a third pizza, totalling £30.00:

Selection of pizzas from Luciano – vesuvio; fiorentina; create-your-own

• Vesuvio – mozzarella, tomato, onion, salami + meatballs @ £10.50
• Fiorentina – mozzarella, tomato, spinach, Grana Padano cheese, egg, black olives @ £8.50
• Parma ham, mushroom + black olives @ £11.00

Delivery time was expected to be about 45 minutes but was closer to an hour and a half. By the time it arrived, it wasn’t hot. But it was nice enough.

Luciano’s delivers to a 2.5 mile radius around SE12, SE3, SE13. That’s these areas:

• BR1 Bromley
• SE10 Greenwich
• SE12 Lee
• SE13 Lewisham
• SE14 New Cross
• SE3 Kidbrooke
• SE4 Brockley
• SE6 Bellingham
• SE9 Eltham

If you have a South London Club card, there’s currently a 10% discount off Luciano’s deliveries. And now, you can use Just Eat to order online.

The verdict: Finally, good wood-fired Italian-style pizza deliveries in South East London. It’s reasonably priced and long overdue. Hopefully, the teething troubles preventing ‘other food’ apart from pizza being available, and slow delivery will be overcome.

Alternative option: They don’t deliver, but the fabulous La Pizzeria Italiana will do take-away orders if you collect.
