Oregano Pizzeria Hampstead (that’s its actual full name) is, as its name suggests, a pizzeria in Hampstead (it’s actually off Finchley road). I haven’t physically been to the restaurant, but we ordered from them the other evening when a group of friends came over unannounced. We were all very impressed. Pizzerias are a dime a dozen in London. What (we collectively felt) separated Oregano from the boys was the depth of flavour they pack into their pizzas, the thin, light crust of their pizzas and the speed of delivery. FYI, there’s a dedicated app for even faster ordering / delivery.
Pepperoni American Vegetarian Quattro Stagioni (four seasons) Chicken Pesto Tuna (my favourite) The morning after…
We ordered the Quattro Stagioni (four seasons pizza), Pepperoni, Vegetarian, Chicken Pesto, American and Tuna. All were fantastic but I personally liked the Tuna most, having never had a pizza with tuna before, or any kind of fish for that matter (anchovies don’t count). Unless there was a hardcore, non-dairy vegetarian in our group, I would probably replace the Vegetarian with a Quattro Formaggi next time. The leftovers passed the morning after tests with flying colours too. Oregano is well worth a visit, take away or home delivery.
