  “First visit to Portal Pizza and it was fantastic, without doubt the best pizza I've ever had 5 stars is no where near enough, the servers & chef's are really friendly, the decor is cool & quirky the atmosphere is really laid back we loved it, considering they only accept walk-ins they were very busy, let's get to the food ... it was absolutely delicious we had a range of pizzas, I had The Smokey Mountain with chilli flakes & blue cheese... beautiful, my wife had the Nennella with the house salad others in our party (there was 8 of us) had a variety of pizzas, couple of sides tomatoe salad & haberneo sweet potato wedges.. all cooked perfectly and 8 empty plates can't say better than that, fair to say we will definitely be going back and fully intend to try there other 2 outlets. Well done guys fantastic experience 👏 👏👏👏”

  “I've eaten in two of the Portal pizzerias in Exeter and both have been an amazing experience. The way they make the dough is just right! It's a perfect combination between a NY style base and neopolitan-ish quality ingredients and bold combinations. Add the rich and natural tomato base and you've got yourself a winner! This time I tried their pepperoni and birria pizza and both were really good, especially the birria one which I've never had before. The house salad was also good and the vibes of the places are just right! Keep it up!”

  “Visited with some local friends and honestly… so glad they took me. Sometimes you don’t need loads to say – it’s just really good pizza. The vibe is relaxed and the tables are a great size, which actually makes a difference when you’ve got pizzas, drinks, and dips all fighting for space. Nice touch that they offer crust dips too – always appreciated and done well here. Food is the star of the show. Just very, very good pizza. The base was spot on – especially the underside, which a lot of places get wrong, but this was properly cooked and added loads to the overall texture. We went for a big pizza to share, half and half. * Margherita side – 6/10 (simple and tasty, does the job) * Meat side – 10/10 (the standout, loads of flavour and easily the better half) Not loads more to say other than it completely delivered. Would happily go back”

  “EDIT: It's OK bigging yourself up on the response but I've already experienced what you offer I also see you posting fake reviews as someone else pointed out in their review. You responded to my review and 5 minutes later 2x 5 star reviews pop up on fake accounts. Scammy much? Wondering if I went to the same restaurant as other reviewers. The pizza topping were only in the middle and they gave me the wrong pizza. Think in future I’ll stick to Dominoes!.”

  “I cannot recommend Portal Pizza highly enough! From the moment I walked through the door, I knew I was in for something special. The warm welcome from the staff immediately put me at ease - they're genuinely friendly and clearly passionate about what they do. The menu is a pizza lover's dream, offering an impressive variety of options that cater to all tastes. What really stands out is the quality of ingredients and the obvious care that goes into crafting each pizza. The crust achieves that perfect balance - crispy on the outside while maintaining a delightful chewiness. Each topping is thoughtfully chosen and generously portioned, creating harmonious flavor combinations that make every bite a joy. The service deserves special mention - the staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic dining experience. They were knowledgeable about the menu, happy to make recommendations, and maintained the perfect balance of attentiveness without being intrusive. The restaurant itself has a great atmosphere that makes you want to linger and savor every moment. It's clear that Portal Pizza isn't just another pizza place - it's a destination for anyone who appreciates authentic, high-quality pizza served with genuine hospitality. Whether you're a local or just visiting Exeter, Portal Pizza is an absolute must-try. Trust me, once you've experienced their incredible pizzas and wonderful service, you'll be planning your next visit before you've finished your meal. This place is truly a gem in Exeter's dining scene!”

  “Delicious pizza freshly baked in pizza ovens, excellent toppings and variety in the menu, and options for takeaway and eating in. Very friendly staff and good vibes in the restaurant if you choose to sit in to eat. Would definitely come back again and look forward to trying more of the pizza!”
