Geeeez people, where do you think you are? Locanda Locacelli or perhaps the Ivy?

Take La Forcetta for what it is, a place to get cheap pizza and pasta with nice simple and fresh ingredients and you will have a great time!
Yes, I agree thatit's not somewhere you'd go for your first date, it's not somewhere you'd take the inlaws, it's not somewhere to propose. It is however great for a group of friends, for a couple who have been dating for a while and don't need fancy bullshit all the time but just can't be bothered to cook dinner. I really love this place and I don't mind the waiters being slightly "easily distracted", I mean it's around £6 a pizza- what on earth do you expect?!?! If you want to be pampered and hoovered over througout your meal then this is definitively not the place- but then that's not always bad.

I seriosuly do not understand people who choose pizza express over the road, we did once and paid more for really shitty horrible pizzas- i kept longingly looking out the window and across the road.

Go somewhere else if you're looking for a memorable flashy night, if you're looking for a decent and less pricy alternative to a proper meal out, go to La Forchetta and enjoy their cheap house wine!
