Look no further for your next best slice!! Dean aka ProfessorZaa has landed in Leamington as new owner. He creates and serves up some of the best zaa in the county and my family is truly obsessed. He and his pizzas are the best & we'll head to Leamington for his creations all day long! But don't take my word for it, check them out on Mill St. I'll leave this right here too! https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/windsor/windsor-essex-armandos-amherstburg-dean-litster-pizza-1.7254260 ❤️ 🍕 ✨

Stopped by for a panzerotti and ended up having a seriously great meal. It was awesome—crispy on the outside and packed with gooey cheese and flavorful fillings. The shredded pepperoni, bacon, and mushrooms were spot on, and the sauce really tied it all together. I think I’ve found my new favorite pizza place.

Edit: I just got a call from the owner, who was very apologetic, and took care of things right away! I am blown away by the exceptional customer service I just received.... Just for this, we will give Armando's another try at some point!! Thanks Sean! We ordered 2 deep dish pizzas and an order of garlic knots. We've never had their deep dish pizza before, and I can honestly say, we'll never have it again. The bottoms of the pizzas were mushy, and the pepperoni one tasted burnt. For $90, you'd expect exceptional pizza. I've had better deep dish from a big box corporation... Disappointed.

Take out… So disappointed in my experience today. I had my granddaughter place an order at 4:05 pm. She clarified to be delivered. The order taker asked for the address then she said it would be here in 45 minutes. An hour and 10 minutes later I called to see if the order was out for delivery. The young lady said we weren’t sure if you wanted that delivered or not. Really? Why didn’t you call? We can bring it right over now. I asked how long it had been sitting there already. She had more excuses than anyone I-have ever heard from a business. Then she was sorry they just got busy! My grandson had to be at soccer in Kingsville for 5:30 with not having eaten but they could credit my account for a future order. Bahaha. Like I’ll ever order there again! Like I told her if you can’t run a business, then don’t run a business!

First time trying Armando’s pizza Leamington since Professor Zaaa took over and it did NOT disappoint. Went with an old favourite, the new pepperoni paradise and a panzerotti! No skimping on toppings AT ALL, cooked just the way we like and absolutely delicious. So glad he opened back up and hands down, makes the best pizza around. Added bonus is how literally simple it is to order on line and just pick up! There are so many options to add or change but it is so simple to maneuver on line! Thx for great tasting pizza that is so worth every penny you pay! (And it isn’t a lot!). Delish

Tried Professor Zaaa’s new pizza offerings at Armando’s and wasn’t disappointed. Well executed pizzas with great toppings and flavours. Some unique offerings and pickles on a pizza were surprisingly tasty. Overall everything was good and would recommend. I would order it well done next time as I like a little extra crunch Pic order: Pepperoni Paradise, Pesto Perfection, Truffle Shuffle, Mill St. Smokehouse, Windsor Classic Sorry about the missing pieces, we were hungry

Ate inside. Tables were spaced out but set up a little weird. There was little space between my chair and the person behind me. Food was AWESOME! I ordered the Detroit deep dish and was the best pizza I’ve had in a long time. Well done! Service was really good!

Food was good but service was slow. Server seemed more occupied with personal business than looking after the few customers that were seated. EDIT: second visit was more impressive. Faster service, better food. Californian flatbread from their lunch menu was tasty.

Such lovely people! The owner went out of their way to accommodate my late order, which made me feel truly cared for. It might sound surprising for just a restaurant, but there was something special about their hospitality; it felt genuine. And let me tell you about the pizza it was absolutely divine! The flavors were so authentic, and the veggies were cooked to perfection. Thank you! Will be ordering again tonight!

Ive tasted several pizzas and this was one was definitely on the meh side. Sauce was good and well done just how we like it but the pepperoni was sliced into thin pieces ( Ive never seen that before) and the mushrooms were from a CAN!.. You can so tell the difference. Not your typical authentic pizza taste at all. Maybe they have better food options on the menu, the pizza was just meh.

Being a local, and a foodie, i have to say, this is probably one of the best restaurants in Leamington for dine in, in my opinion. Sure, it may be slightly smaller and quieter atmosphere (which i love), but the quality is in the food. Absolutely delicious. From Broasted chicken to their pizzas, Im quite impressed. Thank you

Two of us had ordered to take home from the restaurant and again, our waitress made sure they were ready when we were ready to leave. All five of us enjoyed the dining experience.

Im sorry when I expect to go out and have a good meal I didnt expect to be there for two hours. Our appetizers took 40 minutes to come out. We had to ask when we were getting our salads that came with no dressing on it . Then our pasta came and we were still trying to eat our salad . Meanwhile we were ask several times do you want containers for our appetizers that finally came at the end of our meal. The hole meal took forever to get people were seated after us and were finished before us and gone. Not sure if I could do that again.

Went for dinner there tonight with our family. The restaurant has a nice ambience, very clean, and family friendly. The staff was friendly and polite, and even though my meal came out a few minutes after everyone elses at my table I didnt mind because they were apologetic. I ordered the veal parmesan with pasta and meat sauce. The veal parmesan was delicious, but my pasta was a little cold. My side was cesar salad which was so good and I love the amount of garlic they had added to the dressing. Definitely will be back for future visits or special occasions. The appetizer we got was the spinach and artichoke dip which is a must if you go to any Armandos location.

Wrong order, got meat when I specified prior to ordering that I don t want any meat. Then I had to wait over an hour for the food to be re-made. When I finally got it, I had to take it to go as the group had finished eating a long time ago. My receipt indicated I requested a substitute and was charged for extra meat. I brought this to servers attention who said it couldn t be removed. I ve ordered online and have had no problems with the food. Some issues with the times delivery is available. I ordered for take out and only had the minor hiccup of them forgetting I ordered dessert. However, only had to wait 5-10 extra mins for them to retrieve it. For take out, the food and service was good.

ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE!!!!! My fiancée & I frequent Armandos and the food is always fantastic, but then we ordered from the one in Leamington while we were in the area and we had nothing but problems from start to finish. We called for delivery & the workers knew absolutely nothing about the menu, we were told 30-45min and waited an hour and a half for our food just to realize they got our order wrong. We called them to try and correct it but got nothing but attitude from the workers who also did not want to do anything to try and correct the mistake they had made. Will NEVER be ordering from or visiting Leamington Armandos again!!!
