The Concept

Voodoo Ray's, a staple of New York-style pizza in London since 2012, has been saved from liquidation by Rebecca Lines, a long-standing team member. This East London institution, known for its 22-inch pizzas and frozen margaritas, now hosts Doña in its basement, merging the vibrant nightlife vibes with gastronomic delights. The collaboration ensures the venue's legacy continues, uniting two local favourites under one roof.

What to Expect

The venue retains its neon-lit charm with concrete walls, wooden benches, and exposed bulbs. The open-plan kitchen continues to churn out massive pizzas with thin, crispy bases and creative toppings like the Porky's with Cumberland sausage and stilton, or the Green Velvet with artichoke hearts. Doña's presence adds a tequila twist, drawing in the night owls. After midnight, the Full Moon Slice with 'bacon dust' keeps the crowd satisfied.

The Verdict

An East London staple reinvigorated. Embrace the nostalgia of Voodoo Ray’s with a tequila chaser. Try the Green Velvet for a unique twist.
