Customer Review Summary
Pizza is the main draw, with reviewers praising the balance of tomato sauce, cheese and generous toppings, and the bbq chicken pizza and kids' pizzas get specific mentions. Close behind are the curries, including a lamb makhani and a chicken Balti with onion bhajis and garlic naan, plus the special naan kebab, a special calzone and the burgers. Happy reviewers describe hot food, quick delivery, friendly drivers, one who brings a treat for a customer's dogs, and a curry adjusted to request without fuss. A sizeable share of reviews, though, describe a recent slide. Longtime customers report pizzas with thin, dry bases and no sauce, like bread and cheese, kebabs swimming in grease that soaked the bag, and meals arriving cold. Several describe rude phone calls when they rang to complain. One diner needed three deliveries after cold food and wrong pizzas, and the first replacement pizza arrived wrong again.

“This was the best take away for years Then…. until 6 weeks ago. Everything changed. The pizzas were better than dominos now are so dry and so so thin even a deep base which paid extra for is a thin base and the pizza sauce is none existent anymore. It’s bread and cheese. The kebabs were amazing too and now they come swimming in fat and grease so much it’s all over the other food and even the bag. Meals also now come cold compared to a few week ago when they were always delivers HOT. this is my second account to review again my original is wubba chicken this take away is going to lose my £80+ a week. SHAME was a great take away sadly no longer.”

“My FAVOURITE pizza takeaway ever! The pizzas are amazing - perfect amount of tomato sauce, cheese and a generous amount of toppings that are so tasty. The delivery is always really quick and Mr. Tingley Tan, the delivery driver, is such a wonderful person and always puts a smile on my face when he delivers. The pizzas and service are incredible 😍 I wouldn't go anywhere else and 100% recommend!”

“Last update 28/3/2025 last order from here food arrived cold and the kebab was so dripping in fat or grease it was all over every meal and even the bag. Ate half of it as I was hungry now looking for another take away. What ever they have done has ruined one of the best take aways in Leeds. I ordered here 5 times a week so will be a huge loss to them. Such a shame. 4th update as 19 march 2025 Pizzas have dramatically decreased in quality to the point a thin base is none existent and a deep base was a thin base 5 weeks ago. There like bread and cheese now. No more pizza sauce at all. Called them up twice and told them I will not order again after I order 4-5 times a week and was not even bothered to even resolve it rude and didn’t care. 3rd update as march 2025. Unfortunately things are starting to change. The pizzas are not as high quality and not how they use to be. As it stands my stars review will remain for now unless more things and any more drops in quality. I have removed 1 star for the annoying text the next day to tell me my order was sent why? I’ve already eaten it yesterday. 2nd review of pizza island. 3 months later food still amazing very fresh, hot and delivered quickly with a smile. Food amazing tonight I tried the special calzone and I have to say maybe the best most tasty calzone I’ve ever eaten. My wife had her usual of chicken tikka on Nan bread with salad and chilli which is always very fresh and tasty, which she loves. Pizza island is my no 1 takeaway always hot freshly made and most of all delivered quickly and on time which is amazing. Highly recommended to anyone in the area. Please see my other review of pizza island for more photos of other meals ordered. If this helped you please please give me a thumbs up. As I’m closing in on my 1 million review and photo views. 👍”

“I have ordered regularly for many years. Great food. Delivery driver great and friendly. After many years, the one occasion where I had to call in, the person I spoke to was the most ignorant, rude person I had spoken to. And i deliberately called them rather than contacting them through Ubereats. I am UTTERLY disappointed that after so many years of ordering, that when I speak to them directly, they are rude and couldn’t wait to get me off the phone. So disappointed.”
