Pizzaiolo Gourmet Pizza
Love their pizza! All their chicken products are so yummy aswell as their garlic bread. Always friendly and fresh 😊
The best pizza place in ontario! Very consistently Great pizza! They never disappoint when you’re in a pinch and need some high quality pizza.
I recently had the pleasure of trying this place and it definitely exceeded my expectations. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and cozy, with friendly staff that made me feel right at home. The pizza itself was phenomenal — perfectly crispy crust, fresh ingredients, and just the right amount of cheese and sauce. The portions were generous, and I left feeling completely satisfied. Whether you’re a fan of classic toppings or adventurous combinations, there’s something for everyone here. I can’t wait to return for another slice — highly recommend!
I ordered the gluten free pepperoni and it arrived quickly, however it arrived burned and over done. I was shocked someone actually put it in a box to serve to someone. The crust and about an inch below that was completely black. If I didn’t have to run out for a meeting I would have called to have it picked up. Absolutely terrible.
Incredible, order two medium pizzas with two toppings, price 24,99$. Everything perfect. When my son added olives, the price went 44,99$. I pointed that out and I told the gentleman here $20 for one item? This is the special I really don’t understand. What kind of special is that. Unprofessional and a rip off very disappointed.
Much better than I expected for a pizza chain. Service was unfriendly, but food was good.
I haven't been to a Pizzaiolo in a minute. The location I used to love was Broadview n Queen until it closed up shop and went away. I loved that location. This was my first visit since then. This was just as good. The person behind the counter was very pleasant and congenial. She made the experience so much better. And the pizza was so so good. Just like how it used to be. I was even saying it to the person who I was eating with "how do the pizza here always tastes so much better then the other chains?" Cause all of the other chains are so blah sometimes. Anyways I am happy and will be returning for sure.
UPDATE - March 16/23 Sunday evening I received a phone call from the owner letting me know that he wanted to make his customer happy and offered me a credit on my order. I mentioned that I would like to receive the pizzas on Thursday and to my surprise I received another followup phone call from the owner, Mustafa reminding about the pizzas. He took my order over the phone and I was there in about 25 minutes to pick up my order. This time I ordered the medium pepperoni tiny cup and large pepperoni and mushroom. It tasted really good. Their pepperoni tastes great and much better than the Pizza Pizza located right across the road from them. I do not usually provide a 5 star rating but Mustafa and this Pizziolo location deserved it because of their excellent customer service and great pizza. Thanks for making my evening and I will order again. Original post: I ordered two pizza, the first being the pick up medium pepperoni special for $10.99 and the next being the large two toppings with either dipping sauce or two drinks for $15.99. I picked up pizzas around 50 minutes after ordering. There was lots of parking on side of building. The front faces O'connor. When picking up there was a slight error in the medium pepperoni; I wanted the tiny cups but the person ordering provided the regular pepperoni. The pepperoni pizza tasted really good, great crust, sauce and pepperoni. It could have more cheese than it did. The rapini and sausage was not bad; I think I received too many stems of the rapini which were tougher when eating it. It also could of had more cheese on the pizza. I wanted to pay extra for goat cheese but the young lady on the phone who took the order said it was not an option. I have ordered from Pizzaiolo before for a company function and wanted to pick up for myself and family. I was not really impressed with the customer service and was slightly underwhelmed with the pizza. Unfortunately I won't be going out of my way to order again.
Definitely one of the better chain pizza brands out there. The pizza is always good no matter the location and there is a good slice and drink combo.
Walk-in specials never disappoint. Cup char pepperoni
Great location-
First time trying and you have a customer for life! It was perfect, crispy crust, cheesy, and fresh produce. Ordered on uber eats too and it was still awesome !
Great employees kind
The food was very good and the service was excellent. Thank you very much.
I had the worst experience at this location. I cannot believe that as a customer I was treated this way. I was harassed by one of their drivers to park in a different spot! There are no signs that indicate certain spots are only for drivers/delivery staff. However, I was accosted and harassed to move. This is a horrible location with disrespectful drivers. Do not order from this establishment that hires aggressive drivers who harass potential customers.
left me on hold for OVER fine minutes i called another location. chile.
Tried a pizza here for the first time and it was delicious cheese bacon and mushroom amount was good!! Recommend a pizza from here.. Thanks
The foccacia is fantastic. This is my favorite franchise chain pizza hands down.
This is our go-to pizza place. The food is always good, but every time we order, the driver calls us at the time the pizza was supposed to be delivered to tell us theyre about 10 minutes away. Not a huge deal, but maybe the location should change the expected delivery time if they cant get it here on time.
I ordered 2 large pizzas, 1 rapini and 1 margarita. The rapini arrived, greasy, flat, and the dough was very chewy and did not taste good. The margarita pizza arrived looking like a burnt cheese pizza. The basil was burnt, the cheese was hard and greezy, and the dough was chewy. Both pizzas appear to have been cut by a psychopath with varying slice sizes. I do not recommend this location. Hope I get a refund! This cost 55$ and was comparable to frozen pizza.
There pizzas amazing must try it out
Great boss and great employees making the freshest food and customer service!
Wonderful staff very nice , compared to the other pizzaiolo s I ve tried this is by far my favorite
I love the owner of this place! He s a real special human
i love the pizza here, always fresh and their godfather is must try !
Amazing pizza! The crust is crispy, the toppings are fresh and tasty, and the cheese is spot on. The staff is super friendly and the place has a great vibe. Definitely coming back. Five stars!
This pizza is so good please try it
I gave it an overall 3 stars because I m baffled that Pizzaiolo doesn t put stickers on delivery boxes. We usually pick our pizza up from the location and it s always great. Today I had ordered through Uber eats and when I got the pizza I realized there was no seal sticker which means the delivery person could do anything with the pizza that I am feeding my kids. Almost every other pizza company does it, so I find it bizarre that Pizzaiolo doesn t do it. It s probably something you guys should start for obvious purposes. Had I known, I would have not ordered through Uber eats.
Pizza is ok a little pricey wasnt a big fan of the calzone little cheese not much sauce I wouldnt order it again I am sticking with the pizza from here. Parking: Parking in the back
This was not good as other locations. Not a single parking
This location deserves a zero star rating. Ive order from this location before and everytime Im extremely disappointed. I order 2 medium regular crust pizzas and received 2, 10 inch thin crust pizzas after waiting 1 hour for delivery. The pizza was floppy, no crust, little toppings, and cold. (The previous time I order deep dish and didnt receive deep dish. I received regular crust.) This location is the only location I have had an issue with, repeatedly. Ive tried to order from the Underhill location but for some reason the website and the app will not allow me to order from my preferred location, which happens to be closer. I would advise other loyal Pizzaiolo customers and prospective customers to avoid this location untill head office can get this location on par with their other franchises. This lack of service and quality of product is unacceptable and does not reflect previous experiences that I have had at other locations. I hope this isnt a trend that is going to spread throughout other locations. Extremely disappointed and a waste of hard earned money. Please assess your procedures and product, and get into alignment with what your customers expect and deserve for their hard earned money.
Good place, nice pizza
Had a Brando pizza was amazingly delicious! Became my favourite pizza store now!
Great Customer Service, Delicious Food!
Best pizza in town !!!
The flavors are hearty and satisfying, and the portions are generous. Great value for the quality of food
I tried this place s pizza that Was wonderful Experience and i realy enjoyed I definitely recommend this place everyone one
Their god father is out this world!!
Amazing pizza
Amazing service
Love the pizza. So fresh and tasty. My wife and I only ordered from here.
Wow it was very testy like sugar crushed for me specially when the young guy came with smile talking the order , at the end I said see you again
The pizza was delivered hot but wasnt impressed with our pizza. It was ok but wont order from there again. The pie needed to be baked a bit more. The edges were super browned and the middle doughy.
Great pizza great staff fast to take the order and was delicious to enjoy. Thank you
I dont think this location has proper leadership, young people making pizza and not paying attention. Our pizza was burnt on the bottom and the toppings somewhat under cooked. I feel their ovens are not hot enough to cook a pizza correctly. Where in the city can we find the best pizza? Definitely not this location!
Great service & tasty fresh pizza !! Food : 5/5
Best crust available locally. Generous toppings. Friendly people. This has become our Go To pizza joint. Whether it s takeout or eat in the pizza s always delicious. We have been many times for a slice and ordered out quite a few. By now we ve just about sampled all the many styles available. The pizza is always made right with a nice brown bottom and plentiful toppings. We probably have 10-15 pizzerias within a couple of miles and this is the only one we now use.
Fell in love with their Soprano pizza
Vegetarian options: Veggie pizza Food
Quality pizza and friendly staff, highly recommended
Sadly this location is terrible for delivery. The food is not up to par and the food always comes cold!
My fave of all the pizza joints in the area. So glad it came this far east! Could stand to use a little more cheese on the pizzas though! I dont love extra cheese but it definitely needs some more than the regular cheese.
They sent two pizzas. One was meat and fine. The other vegetarian and burnt. Seriously. No joke. It took a day, but the owner called me who was very understanding about my concerns about the pizza and how his staff handled my complaint. We talked about how new staff applied the wrong policy due to a misunderstanding in the training and he took my feedback constructively. He agreed to comp my next order with them. I have ordered 8 times from them. This is the first time there was an issue like this. It was handled well in the end and in 24 hours. Vegetarian options: The Primavera is delicious!
One of the best city pizza chains, ingredients are local to the food terminal. Thats why these chains are not far from it. This is one of the most easterly chains, small but great for take out.
Great options for vegan and plant-based toppings!
Ordered two large pizzas for pickup on a Sunday around noon. Staff here had no issues with my 1/2 tipping split pizzas. Theres street parking infront of the restaurant. Staff are friendly and the pizza was delicious. Parking: Street parking in front of restaurant
Placed an online order day of for 3 party pizzas to be delivered. So easy to order online and delivery was seamless. Pizzas were hot and fresh and delicious. Highly recommend and will definitely be ordering again, whether for a group or just our family - thanks for the great experience!!
Tried the pepperoni pizza. LOVED the pepperoni used, each one was consistently crispy and so yummy! The dough was really nice, fresh and rolled out not too thick or thin but perfect. Could of been a smidge saucier (but that s my preference). I can t wait to try the other pizzas with different toppings. I haven t enjoyed pizza anywhere in a long time, so thank you!
Barely any sauce or cheese, let alone other toppings. 2 stars because the dough is good. Good location. Service decent - could smile and be a bit friendlier. But efficient.
Great pizza no doubt about it but the owner reminds me of a hypnotist. I order a pizza and this guy sneaks around the corner of the front counter and says I want to show you your pizza so that he can flash it at the people standing next to me in line. And then, when I walk out and say thanks he goes no problem and makes this little hand motion as if he were typing on a keyboard. Kind of alarming, I cant even go to a family restaurant without someone doing this to me. Anyway, if you can handle being around a hypnotist for an hour great place to grab a bite.
One of the best pizza store location I ve ever been in Canada. The staff is so polite and the food is amazing literally fell in love with it! Definitely gonna visit this place again. I recommended everyone to visit this place and try the pizza from here they have many different options!
Very delicious pizza, my all time favourite
The best pizza so delicious favourite pizza for my kids
Amazing Pizza, great customer service my family s new favourite place I definitely recommend Yummm.
Fantastic place. Ordered one medium pizza with half and half toppings. Our server was careful to add extra tomato sauce as we wanted. Also it was well done. It was a beautiful pizza and tasted amazing. The toppings were fresh and it tastes too good. The best part about their pizzas is the dough and it tasted good even after 20 minutes Just one recommendation: please keep mustard sauce as well
The worst slice of pizza I ever had . It seemed like they had a pizza left over from the day before , it was so dry and tasteless never going back there
What a great neighbourhood feeling Pizzaiolo is a welcome Edition We look forward to eating their exeptionally good pizza made by their exceptionally friendly staff Michaela
So I make it a point to write reviews on both sides of the spectrum and I did have a poor experience at this location until Pat Finelli himself (yes the coo of pizzaiolo) reached out and contacted me for a chat. We sorted out the mistake and despite a new employee mix up I look forward to ordering this great tasting pizza again. Thanks Pat.. It really made a difference to me and ensured a return customer.
Different types of pizza that accommodate dietary restrictions. The opposite of pizza pizza
Lot of. Options to choose from. We just did a take out - both pizzas Primavera and pepperoni were well made and tasted really nice and fresh. We would definitely go back again.
We love this location and their pizzas, always consistent and baked to perfection.
I mean, Youre not going to this pizza joint for the atmosphere. Lets be real. But the food is top notch, especially the vegetarian options. Ive had way more success doing pickup then I have with delivery, and whenever I pick it up the employees always make sure to double check the pizza in front of me, and make sure that everythings okay. Compared to Pizza Pizza across the street, theres an obvious price difference, but the combinations and toppings that they use for the specialty pizzas are worth it. Highly recommend! Vegetarian options: One of the best pizza places for vegetarian options in the city. The one with spinach and ricotta is the absence of the best of my opinion.
Not open yet. Just one block from where I live. Soon to open....cant wait. Heard only good things Is open now. Rather go to Dominoes across the street. This place is super expensive and the pizza quality is only mediocre at best. One slice is $6.50...I can buy a small one topping at Dominos for $5.99. Better in every way.
The Diana (Veg pizza) no flavor no taste just blah and Fedro (Potatoe Pizza) absolutely horrible no flavor what so ever Potatoes need to be cooked properly and need more flavor or something added or just take it off the menu. But the honey pepperoni, wow, the flavor is amazing, absolutely delicious, and the Mac and cheese pizza. Its good, to be honest. Good flavor is also a must try.
Great pizza. Worth the extra distance to pick up.
Always good!
Please be bothered to warm up the slices. Otherwise, it is like biting down on leftovers from last nights party.
Honey Heat Pizza is so bussing.
OK
Incredible pizza and the service by Sana was incredible. She was polite and very helpful with the order
Best Pizza in Toronto
Best pizza I had in my life. Just got some 5 minutes ago and I couldnt wait to write this review. I got the halal peperoni and the favour was immaculate. Not only that, but the amount of peperoni they gave was the cherry on top. 10/10
Great pizza great location great staff
Tasty fresh and hand made to order pizza! Generous and flavourful toppings. Be sure to ask for fresh garlic, by request only. Certainly brings it to next level, tasty! Bon appetite fast forward 1.6 years, and this place is off my list of fav. Pizza joints. Quality has sadly declined, I havent returned in over a year.
First time and now last time. Not worth what I paid for..!
I usually love Pizzaiolo but lately it hasnt been great. Main issue was the dough being undercooked. Topping tasted fresh at least but it was a sloppy mess.
Tasty
Yum!
Delicious Pizza!
Pleasant, clean and inviting atmosphere. We were invited to sit while we waited for our walk in pizza to be prepared. Excellent taste, amazing quality pizza product, Cesar salad, and service, too! Thanks Sana and TEAM :) Lola Food
We stopped at this Pizzaiolo location after my kids basketball game and as they didnt have any vegan slices left (understandable, it was later in the evening), I ordered a small veggie delight and I have to say, it exceeded my expectations! It was quite yummy and hit the spot. Plus, the lady who helped us was very kind and provided excellent customer service. If I lived nearby Id definitely order from this location again! Highly recommend. Dietary restrictions: I loved that they had vegan cheese and lots of veggie options!
After an exhausting day at work that ended at 8:30 without any food I crawled over to the local pizzaiolo. The food as expected was delicious as Ive been here several times and not been ravenous. as I was here during off hours it wasnt crazy and the staff were super friendly chatty smiling and they look like they truly enjoyed being here. Huge shout out to Mohammed and his wonderful smile and great pizza and Sana for bringing sunshine to my life in the night. Parking: Free street parking out front parking lot that surrounds at the building plenty of space.
The worst pizza restaurant in the city
Staff really goes the extra mile for providing good customer service! Delicious pizza as well!
Great vegan pizza
Wonderful customer service and delicious pizzas!
They have some really good Pizzas here. Got the deep dish to try wasn t how i thought it was going to be but was still very yummy!
Delicious, Great Quality Pizza. Excellent customer service.. Definitely be coming back real soon
Excellent customer service from these guys.
Sana and the team delivered a world class experience
Been here now a couple of times and quality/service has been great.
Place was fantastic, thoroughly enjoyed the pizza, amazing server. Will come again.
Love the food, fantastic, amazing service, must come here
The pizza was bussin bussin the crust God damm
Me and my friends went there late night and I could not recommend this place enough. The pizzas were freshly made, had the right crunch, the dough was amazing. Apart from the amazing pizzas, the customer service experience was also outstanding (I have never had a better CS experience in canada) . The owner and the staff were very friendly and honest about the food items, when i told them of some food restrictions I had. They were very accommodating. And I just cant say this enough, but if you re thinking twice if you should go here, don t. Just go.
It really makes a difference when youre using real ingredients!
Good tasting pizza, friendly staff and fast service, something different to check out from the other chain type pizza spots.
EDIT: I have since updated my review to 5 stars. Customer care offered me a free pizza due to my experience outlined below and I called in to redeem it tonight. At first the free pizza wasn t showing in my account, but the lady who answered the phone was polite, efficient and swiftly figured out the issue and honoured the free pizza. The pizza was personally delivered by the store owner Mustafa, who was very pleasant and apologetic about my prior experience. The pizza was delicious, as it usually is and my faith in this Pizzaiolo location has been restored! Thank you Mustafa and team!! - This is our go-to local pizza place and we re usually really happy with our pizza, however today was not a great experience here. I called in my order ahead for pick up and when I arrived, one of my pizzas had black olives instead of green. I pointed out the error and the woman shrugged her shoulders and said, oh well, they taste good too, no? , to which I replied no . She then said she d re-make it, but having to pick up my kids from preschool, I didn t have time to wait around for a new pizza to be made. No other attempt was made to remedy the situation. Perhaps a credit for next time? Nope. The lack of attention to detail and accountability is quite frustrating these days.
The best chain pizza place in the city. The staff are great and incredibly friendly at this location.
This place has left the best impression!! Delicious Pizza and amazing welcoming staff. The service was Top notch. would recommend it to everyone. Bon appétit! :)
Good Pizzeria
The pizza was good but this location did not use enough toppings compared to thier other location
Ordered 2 medium pepperoni pizza , both of them were really dry and hard to eat. Theres wasnt enough sauce or cheese. Maybe I got unlucky, ill give them another try but Im definitely disappointed. Consistency is important.
Amazing customer service. Pizza is very delicious!! Definitely I m going back again!
Pizza was good but not the best. Service was a bit slow but they were very welcoming and courteous
I ordered a honolulu pizza yesterday. It was so yum. I loved it. And their customer service was amazing.
Great workers good pizza
Their pizza is tasty and customer service is awesome. Definitely coming back :D
Pizza here is really good
Recently moved in the parkview hills area and this place is amazing! Best quality slice and great service.
Best customer service, very friendly, very professional and above and beyond. I love the food here. I will be coming back for more.
DELICIOUS!!
tastyyyyy pizza and awesome staff!!!
Great place & pizza!!!
New in town with a recommendation. Well-run with a delicious result
Tasty pizza, fast service. They just need to watch that the crust is a consistent thickness...one side of the pizza was over an inch thick and the other side was very thin. Also, the slicing was very uneven...some huge pieces, some very tiny.
Come from up north. Have had pizzaiolo s Margherita pizza twice now and i love it. Such a great go to after a long day at the hospital! Thanks great service!
I have been here few times the customer service was amazing every single time and the pizza delicious and well cooked . I would definitely be here many more times .
We are happy to say Pizzaiolo has very professional customer service, they really go above and beyond to satisfy their customers. Also our pizza tonight was cooked to perfection
I tried the pizza at Pizzaiolo I have to say it was highly pleasant to the taste. The ladies definitely could make pizza, woow!! Staff are awesome and professional.
Tried Pizzaialo pizzas for the first time. The ingredients were fresh and the crust was perfect. Definitely the best chain in Toronto for pizzas. Will be a regular customer in this location. Thanks for a memorable food experience.
Very little choices of slices. Only 4 pies available 1 if you have a mushroom allergy
Great selection of pizza and super friendly staff!
Gourmet food
This is the worst Pizzaiolo location. Ordered once and the pizza never came. When I called they said they had a printer issue and they would make the pizza quickly. 20 later I had an underdone and over 2 hour late pizza. I decided to try ordering again the pizza shows up 20 min late missing one topping and the two dipping sauces that I ordered.
Best pizza in town and outstanding performance from staff.
This is some nice pizza and some very nice people working there. This location has good access and good parking as well. It has a wide walkway at the front that s covered, perfect for quick hang out while enjoying a slice. Will go back for sure.
Best pizza I ve had. Customer service is excellent, I was most definitely satisfy with my order. Would recommend to others
This place is fantastic, ordered my first pizza from them and it was made to perfection. Hands down better than any other pizza chain, even better than what I ve had at other Pizzaiolo locations. The staff here are also very personable. I ll definitely be a repeat Customer!
As i walked in my order was being boxed up. Talk about great timing. The pizza here is delicious and its made on time. The employees are all very kind and friendly
Advice: dont prioritize counting tips infront of a customer while their pizza sits on top of the oven
Super friendly staff and great pizza! Much better than any pizza hut, pizza pizza or pizza nova. Definitely will come again
This location makes the best and delicious pizza!!!
Great staff... Great pizza!!!
Great food ,great people and atmosphere I m glad I went there anybody in the area should go and check it out
Been in twice now, and they make good pizza. GF needs gluten free, and on the second trip they were out of medium, so they made two smalls for the same price. Great customer service, and Ill definitely be back for more.
Great Pizza, staff was very friendly & service was amazing
The pizza crust was awful the whole pizza was poorly made Im never ordering from this location again
Loved my experience at Pizzaiolo, this location has super friendly and welcoming staff! The pizza here is absolutely delicious, you can taste the freshness in the ingredients of pizza. Highly recommend and will be returning soon!!
It was my first time visiting this location last week and I had a great experience! Staff is super friendly and the pizza is some of the best Ive had recently! Will definitely be going back!
One of my new favourites - excellent customer service, and if youre looking for fresh and tasty pizza for pizza night, this is the spot! Enjoy :)
I dont know why it has taken me so long to discover this pizza location. These folks really make it their mission to make you blown away with their pizza flavour, crust crispness and friendliness of the service. If you are craving pizza tasting like pizza made by Italian grandma, go here. No need to circle around to find some parking, its available right next to the building. Or just order a delivery, directly from the location, they will be happy to deliver. Coming back for sure and getting my friends on the Pizzaiolo wagon as well.
Very fast and very efficient! The pizza is always good, love em.
Had a great experience with the food and the service provided. Will definitely go back!
Amazing pizza with a great and friendly staff!
Awesome Pizza I adore the crust and fresh garlic topping.. I will be only going here for pizza now
Great staff , delicious pizza and the manager is great. All you need in a pizza place. definitely try it much better than that pizza pizza place
Great service, very friendly staff and delicious pizza!
Went back totally bought a potato slice of pizza! With a Brio you can t complain! Im not even vegan but it tasted good! Always a good variety!
Great Pizza and even better service , 10/10 would order again
Great spot... excellent, fresh pizza and friendly helpful staff...great addition to the neighborhood
Amazing customer service and pizzas are nicely done with fresh toppings. I ve tried Pizzaiolo before in other locations and I have to say that this one is the best. Fast service and clean store.
I have to eat gluten and dairy free, so Im not picky when it comes to pizza crust. But this one is good!. Its my new pizza place. Ive been ordering for a bit, so I know they have a GF box, so when I didnt receive that box, I called to check. I ended up talking to the owner, who has extremely kind to check a picture of my pizza, so I could feel safe eating it. I appreciate this so much. I wont order pizza from any other place
From the area and first time going here: Wow! Amazing customer service to not only me to even customers that phoned (heard their convo) Great Tasting pizza, had to try a bite! Great experience and service! Welcome to the area! All the best for 2022!
