Jazz

Below the vibrant streets of Soho lies a hidden gem that is as much about the live music experience as it is about its classic Italian-inspired fare. Enter the world of Pizza Express Live, where the dining tables in this intimate setting double as front-row seats to some of the finest jazz and diverse musical acts in town. As the lights dim, the stages come alive with performers ranging from local jazz quartets to big bands, all committed to delivering auditory delights. Diners are consistently attended by seasoned staff like Richard and Tahar, who masterfully balance attentiveness with the smooth flow of an evening at this buzzing venue.

The menu, anchored by the restaurant’s signature thin-crust pizzas, offers a scattering of starters and carefully selected wines, catering to both purists and adventurers alike. Patrons can immerse themselves in the cozy atmosphere, although the small bar means cocktails might lack luster on occasion. Despite memorable performances and flavorsome food, the dining experience can sometimes be lessened by the need for direct airflow, particularly during summer evenings when the venue's air-conditioning may underperform. Nonetheless, for those seeking a delightful fusion of culinary and performance arts, this vibrant basement setting should not be overlooked.
