For a very long time we had been meaning to try this pizza. This was not because of hearing anything bad just the way it played out. Well last night we finally remembered to order from them! I can't believe we waited so long! This is by far the best pizza in town. Fresh toppings and so plentiful! Crust it so soft! Sauce was great. When we called in our order the staff noticed that we could get a better deal by up sizing for a deal that was on. We will be back! Again and again!

Amazing food. Pizza was top notch. Rebecca our server was super informative about the surrounding area. Deserts are homemade and you can tell, the quality of the food is a priority. We will be back when we come back to N.S.

There’s a reason why this pizza place is so highly rated. One of the best pizza places I’ve ever had. I’m not even that fussy on pizza in general and this pizza was so delicious. The pizza sauce was just right- the mix of herbs and spices were balanced perfectly. The bacon is seriously what made this pizza so perfect. We also had garlic fingers. Now, garlic fingers are my JAM. These garlic fingers were absolutely perfect. Again, the REAL bacon pieces is what made the garlic fingers so perfect. The cheese was melted perfectly, the GF were hot, and the donair sauce was perfect. 10/10 would recommend and would definitely go again. We’re not from PEI so I’ll be craving this pizza forever now but at least we have leftovers for another night! Oh, and we also had a Caesar salad which was MASSIVE. The dressing was so good and the copious amounts of garlic made the Caesar salad that much better. I would definitely get an extra container of Caesar dressing though…I don’t think one was enough.

You gotta try Little Christo’s! Had a delicious fresh, fast pizza today with their amazing lunch deal … 9” three toppings with a pop only $10 tax in. 🤩🍕

Awesome pizza and great customer service. The owner is very nice and vibrant – also very accommodating to cultural diversities, especially in matters of religion. The pizzas themselves were mouthwatering. Please view the photos for a more visual description. Sometimes, the heart can't express what it wants to say, so a picture helps.

Was looking to try out some pizza while in PEI. Called here but there was no answer. I called another place but these folks called my cell while I was on the phone to apologize for missing my call! I was already impressed. The delivery time was reasonable and the pizza showed up piping hot, and it was delicious! They also accommodated ordering different ingredients for each side. And the price was very reasonable. Definitely recommended!

Excellent garlic fingers with real bacon Pretty good pizza, but comparable to others. I don't think anyone has garlic fingers as good though! Friendly service. It seems like most of the business is take out but they do have seating inside as well.

What happened to the thick crust? Thicker dough? This pizza was very thin no crust like the old days no different than a pizza down the street. Bring back the thick crust please this is what made your pizza different.

So I came here on a friday night, right before closing, like literally 15 mins before closing and I felt so bad but I really wanted to try their pizza. Im from halifax and really wanted pizza here in pei. I ordered a med works with ex cheese. It was steaming as I walked to my car, drove to the air b&b 4 mins away and opened the box and was met with a glorious za....I tasted it and the ingredients were so fresh with big chunks of bacon that you could tell didnt come from a box but real live chopped bacon. This was hands down one of the best pizzas Ive ever had, including traditional wood fired italian resto pizza. There was alot of good toppings, good flavor and the crust was good. My only criticism and maybe this is because it was slightly rushed cause I ordered so late but the bottom was a bit soggy after sitting and felt slightly raw in some areas of the pizza. Amazing pizza and the server and pizza cook allowing me to order so late when I work in the biz and know how annoyed the pizza cook probably was and were still accommodating and the cook made a good za. Ill be back here for sure when ever Im in pei. Better than any halifax pizza in this same style Ive had. Stone pizza in Dartmouth wishes it was this good!!!

I love their pizza

December 21, 2023

Made a phone call for pick up at 520 pm and was told it would be ready at 640.. Got to the store at 530 and sat in the parking lot until 640 in the hour and 10 minutes I sat there 2 people went in the store and picked up their food. Kind of a long wait. Walk into the store at 640 to them just starting to make the pizza. Not sure if your understaffed or theyre just lazy because the store wasnt busy I know that much. Pizza and garlic fingers were delicious though

Why was I wasting my money and time in other pizza places? Been here for 4 years, this is the first time I try Little Christos. Im never going back to order anywhere else. Little Christos has no comparison. Its the best you can find in PEI for the same price of any other place. Dont think about twice, get pizza here.

Being from out of town I was looking for a local pizza place. Not a large chain pizza place. This place popped up on Google maps and it had decent reviews. Its a small pizza place and tucked slightly off University Ave not far from the university heading towards downtown. Staff were friendly and the food is reasonably priced. Since we had not ordered ahead if time, we were told the pizza would be 25 mins. Sure enough, 25 mins later the pizza was ready. Got back to my hotel and couldnt wait.to dive in. Opening the box I was pleasantly surprised at the perfection that was.in front of me. Perfectly cooked.pizza with great tasting sauce and toppings. The crust is really good too. The taste of the pizza is familiar to a larger chain restaurant (BP) but at a fraction of the price. Next time Im in Charlottetown and looking for pizza, Ill hit this place up again.

Friday night October 22 2021 one of the worst customer service experiences of my life here. Phone in order 5 PM say ready in 30 minutes. Arrive 5:15 and pay. Place was a zoo. At 6 PM wondering where my pizzas are - so are they. Turns out a bunch of orders did not print back in production area. And they do not have a very good system for tracking when something happens. Asking customers for names and or phone numbers and what they ordered trying to back track. Not one system in place - not even an order sequence #? So multiple customers waiting for something that never got made. So I say I want a refund - well the cashier had a fit she could not do that. Had to try and convince the guy that was manager for the night to do a refund. Arguing about it in back. He would not come forward and do it - did not know how to refund a Visa. Not until I refused to move aside for other customers did he appear and and finally give me a cash refund. He did not say sorry or anything. So after being a customer for 40 years that is the end of Little Christos for me.

I have to say what great service I had from your employee Zoey ! She was very friendly even though I showed up very close to closing time and we chatted while I waited for my pizza. She was telling me about the quality of your ingredients and how they are all purchased from local businesses. I feel like that is something a lot of people don t know. I didn t but I m glad I do now. I feel like it s something you should try to highlight more if you can because people want to support local more then ever. I also did not realize you were not a chain until that evening! Anyway, had a great experience, pizza was delicious, best garlic fingers in town. That is all :)

Food was alright, service was not so good. We dined in, we felt the table had not been cleaned since there was dried items stuck to it . Nor was it wiped off when we sat down. Server was not wearing a mask the whole time . Our food was brought to us as mentioned it was alright . The server checked on us once about 3 minutes after we got our food . We ate then waited for our bill. I wanted to see how long but after about 45 mins of waiting I became bored so I had to go find the server to get a box for our leftovers so we could leave. Pizza is a bit pricey but nothing of a WOW factor to it . I have been there before and the service does need work. Dont think Ill be back for a while if ever.

My donair panzerotti was overcooked and rather bland. Likely wouldnt recommend.

December 21, 2020

I placed an order by phone to be picked up, and when giving my payment information I was asked if I d like to leave a tip. This was awkward and put me on the spot so I told the young lady that I would leave $3. I absolutely tip delivery drivers and any staff that does a good job but tipping before I receive any service isn t something that I do. I then received a phone call from the restaurant and the same young lady informed me that she had charged the incorrect price for my order and I owed her an additional $5. I again gave her my credit card info for the difference because i felt that if I refused, my pizza would have been made with....less care. I really don t know when I ll order from this restaurant again.
