This used to be my favorite pizza place until last weekend. Took my kids out for dinner and I specifically ordered penne alfredo pasta. Our order came to the table and it was fettuccine. I told them that this was not the first time that they messed up with out order. I ordered many months ago for the same pasta and they did it wrong. We ate once in the summer and the same thing happened. I figured that they were not being honest to their customers. I will not bring my family again here, very disappointed.

Came here because when you look up “takeout” in Pickering the reviews are one of the highest. Was told 15 minutes on the phone. Got there in 17 minutes and they had not started cooking it yet but I could see it being made. No other people in the restaurant except one person who seemed to be a friend of the worker. 2 Employees, one was chatting at the take out counter, one was making pizza. Neither greeted me until I had walked right by them and been standing at the cash for some time. No hello or even asking me my order. Just stood there chatting ignoring me. I paid and the machine prompted 10%/15% and I believe 20% (May have been 18%). Walked out of there 30 minutes after ordering and 15 minutes after it was supposed to be done. We had ordered a shareable New Yorker pizza and 1 garlic dip. Got it home in under 6 minutes and went to eat right away, only to find out the pizza dough was mostly raw and the slices were just a big floppy uncut mess. Understanding this type of thing happens I called back to let them know and was told by the gentleman on the phone “I didn’t take that one out of the oven”. I told him I understand that but somebody did and it’s not cooked… at all. After he put me on hold for a second he came back and said “I asked the other guy and he said it was cooked well” I said “ok thank you very much” and he said “bye” and firmly hung up the phone. I’ll include photos of the pizza and the 1/3 filled dip cup that was $0.99. I’m not going to review the pizza itself because the photos speak for themselves but due to the customer service alone I would never come back. Very poor experience not sure where all the positive reviews are from.

When they opened few yrs ago, it was much closer to real neapolitan pizza and tasted good. Fast forward a bit later, pizza dough was flat and underwhelming. Standard definitely not the same anymore. I see a dough pressing machine which explains the flat bread style pizza now.

Came here for pizza night last night and enjoyed it very much. 🤗. Will be coming back here for pasta night. Staff is friendly, there are tables to sit and eat at, and I noticed high chairs - which is key for many parents. We ordered online , and our food was ready in about 40 minutes. Looking forward to our next meal here.

Had the Margherita pizza which is always my litmus test for neopolitan style pizza. It was really good! Bread was made thin crust which was a nice dough blend almost sour dough. The pizza was a little underdone but it still tasted amazing. The sauce was perfectly seasoned and just my type, not too sweet. The cheese was fresh and just right. My wife had the spaghetti meatball which was also really good but the meat ball was a little underwhelming. I would definitely come back for the pizza.

a small and quiet place to grab a bite to eat. the food is super fresh and made to order. I've only had the pizza and calzone so I can't speak for the pasta. however, the pizza and calzone were super tasty so I highly recommend. the staff were super patient and helpful with helping us decide what to order. going in I thought they would just give us disposable cutlery and plates but instead we ate off of actual plates. the cleanliness of the restaurant was good as well. the station where you put your dirty plates and cutlery was emptied as soon as someone left it. the bathrooms were clean and updated.

This was one of the best pizzas I have had in years! Generous with the toppings, and the older gentleman working on the pizzas really pays attention to his craft. The price was fair too. Pizza was perfect to be honest. Not too thick not too thin. The whole time I was waiting, the man making the pizzas was constantly checking the pizzas in the oven to make sure they were cooked perfectly. I'll let the picture do the talking

Service was prompt, atmosphere was great, but pizza was average. I ordered a 14 pepperoni pie, the dough was lifeless (flattened in a press), taste was meh at best, definitely not worth the cost in my opinion.

Hey everyone. I just wanted to give you guys a heads up. Tonight we decided to grab a couple of pizzas for dinner from Vis-à-Vis on Kingston Rd. I have been going to this place for years and have built up what I thought was a good rapport with the staff there. As my wife and kids were finishing up their slices, my wife felt something sharp in her mouth. It was a sharp and jagged piece of metal in the slice of pizza she was eating. Razor sharp and solid. Shocked and very upset by this I decided to drive back to Vis-a-Vis to find out how this happened and where it came from. I was afraid of the possibility that there could have been more metal shards and shavings in the pizza we had already eaten. When I explained this to the staff I was extremely disappointed by their reaction and how they handled this information. At first I encountered blank stares and empty responses such as whoops I m sorry to the owner telling me Ahh thanks for reminding me! To which I said Reminding you?? He told me that the oven was old and he needed to get a new one but hasn t which sounded ridiculous to me. I kept asking them to look around and see how this could ve happened but they didn t bother. Not only did they not do this but they showed no real concern whatsoever. The owner then tried to pocket the shard but I ensured that he give it back to me. I needed to have it incase that in the worst case scenario we did ingest more of these sharp objects that we would at least know what it was. I ll be reporting it to the Dept of Health but just wanted to warn anyone who plans to eat there to do so at their own risk.

Pizza always tastes better when it s hand tossed and fire baked in a wood fired oven. @visavispickering the pizza is ready within minutes, they only use fresh ingredients and the flour for their dough is imported from Italy for some authentic flavour. All their chicken and beef are #halal, supplied from @blueskysupermarket in #pickering. Also to note they do have pepperoni which is kept separate. They also serve fresh pasta and calzones which I will try next time around. Both looked mouthwatering good. Place is clean, few tables for dine in and the large pizza oven provides a good show :) @munchhalal tip - Ask them to go easy on the olive oil drizzle on the pizza, to keep the crust crispy.

December 22, 2023

Wow! Way too salty. Ordered two toppings- double cheese and regular pepperoni. The pizza was a 14 inch diameter that tasted like it was pure cheese and salt for 40$! I would never recommend this pizzeria tbh. Horrible. I drank 2 liters of water throughout the night because of the sodium in the pizza. When will fast food places learn so much sodium isn t healthy or tasty? Or are they simply trying to camouflage ingredients that are going off? Anyway, hard pass for me. Didn t enjoy it.

This place should be shut down. Placed an online order and waited 2 hours for 1 pasta, 1 personal pizza, and 1 calzone only for them to mess up the order and have the audacity to give it to us. We watched them take 1 hour just to warm up frozen food, nothing here is fresh or hygienic. We had to fight for a refund. You re better off ordering boston pizza

My kid loves the chicken Alfredo pasta and usually an older gentleman takes and prepares our order. Food is always good. Pasta always fresh and delicious. I do find the service is not super friendly and today I was disappointed to not be acknowledged at all by any of three staff member who were there. Plus there was a a guy eating behind the counter and didn t wash his hands before continuing on with the pizza making or whatever he was doing. Just off putting. The person who cashed me out was pleasant enough. While the food is great, I m not sure I will be back as often as it is expensive and the service is no where up to the mark.

This place is the real deal The pizza is incredibly high quality authentic fare The pasta was delicious and you can tell the meatballs were crafted with care I just moved to the area and first tried this the night we moved in. I ordered pizza for the movers and my family. Everyone was impressed. Definitely gonna be a go to I have to say it s still good but declining from previous Hand stretched dough has air bubbles in it which makes the crust more flavorful and gives that famous Neapolitan crispy yet chewy texture They have this machine now to flatten the dough to make the crust which takes away alot of what was good before It is way too thin and not airy at all like card board Also my pizza was a corn meal bomb as you can see from the picture. It was a crumbly mess. I gather this is added to prevent sticking of the dough to the oven deck or pizza peel but it was overpowering and not nice tasting I m sad it s not what it used to be

The owner is very dishonest . He employs teenagers and if they quit he refuse to pay for the time that they work and he is very rude. Staff who prepares pizza use their bare hands to put toppings on pizzas as no gloves are provided. The owner do not provide gloves or utensils. My relative worked there briefly and was appalled by the unsanitary condition where pizza doughs are stored and they not having soap on site to wash hands after making pizza with her bare hands.

Wish I could rate this restaurant higher. During the pandemic, we have been trying to support local, independent businesses when we have special order in nights. Im giving it 2 stars for the following reasons: - food: good. Not absolutely amazing off the charts great worth the premium over other pizza places great, but, good. My kids were still hungry after they are their pizza though due to pizza size. - service: terrible. Seriously. Ordered a pizza at 4:30 (early!) hoping it would arrive early. Prepaid a tip, wanted a smooth, hands free delivery. Guess what time the pizza finally arrived? 6:30(!!!!!). TWO HOURS later. Ive never waited so long. Family was absolutely miserable from hunger by the time it arrived. - price: two medium sized pizzas came out to approx $57 with delivery . For that price, pizza better be AMAZING. Admittedly, it was good, but not amazing. This was our first time ordering from here. Unfortunately thats it for us. :(

omg!!!! I ordered a few pizzas online. The online site responds right away stating that it may be 45 minutes for your delivery. After an hour I drove to their establishment. The girl working there stated that the pizza just went out. I said it is now and hour and ten minutes since I placed my order. She stood there with a blank look on her face along with the other two staff members wondering what I was talking about. I went home and a slice of cold pizza. How they are in business is beyond me!!!!

The food was delicious. I had the calzone and my wife had the pasta. The toppings were fresh (nothing like what you get at the big brands) and the crust was perfect!! We will definitely be back!!

Took us a while to try this place. But I am glad we did! The crust has a great bite and an excellent chew, while super thin and crisp! Great selection. The flavour and overall taste is great!

Great authentic stone-oven pizza; very friendly Italian owner and staff! Orders are made hot on arrival; our choice for pizza on the east end!

Horrible service. Their website says delivery starts at 4pm. So I placed an order and get a call saying delivery starts at 5pm. I confirm food will be delivered at 5pm. Its now 5:15 and there is no sign of any food yet. Very frustrating. Fix your website and your service.

First time here. Take out with four pizzas and one pasta order. On time. Lots of free parking. Good access for wheelchair etc.limited seating but I dont think there is table service. Pizzas were quite good taste wise. The thin crust was nice but I prefer it a bit more crispy. Not sure if you can ask for that, I will next time. Worth a try, certainly better than a chain pizza.

Halal Stone Baked pizza and fresh pasta? Yes Please! I don t know of anywhere else in the GTA that makes these types of pizza halal but @visavispickering will be tough to beat

Staff taking my order says 20 minutes... 35 later and they start prepping it. Expensive but good pizza, not worth it if service is this bad.

Whatever you do...Do not go to this pizza shop! The owner was extremely rude and unprofessional! I tried calling to inquire about his pizza options and he hung up the phone saying he was busy. If youre not meant to service people dont do it cuz youre obviously not good at it! If you want really good pizza I suggest you go to Pizza Pinos theyre the best in Durham!

Bad customer service. I ordered a pizza and was unhappy with it because what was suppose to be a drizzle of Olive oil was actually a pool of Olive oil atop my pizza. They refused to make me a different pizza and so I asked to be refunded and they also refused. Very unhappy with the attitude I was met with during this experience.

A very new and clean place! The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The price is around $12 give or take for a personal sized pizza - completely depending on your toppings, so it is about the average price for takeout/fast food meals, but without a drink or any sides. A bit on the pricey side in my opinion. The pizza is thin crust and tasted pretty good, but I think getting a regular pizza from elsewhere is a bit better value, unless you are really looking for that Neapolitan style pizza. Great for fast casual dining!

Possibly one of the better Italian pizza and pasta joints in the GTA that I ve been to, it s a place that I just keep coming back to! And for good reason too! If you look at the way they run their website, establishment and even their royalty program, this is a niche restaurant that clearly takes its appearance seriously and it truly looks like it s done the most to differentiate itself from other restaurants. With delicious foods, decent service times and easy access location, their wide selection of choices has me coming back to try something new again and again. And they ve got halal and gluten-free options too! Would recommend to any and all.

Were really picky about our Pizza. Neopolitan/thin crust/authentic/not too salty/ fresh ingredients. As everyone should be really! Wont go for the usual salty/sweet garbage out there.... We found this place based on the reviews and they didnt disappoint!!! Had the Quattro Formaggi and Prosciutto and Arugula. REALLY REALLY GOOD!!! A wood burned oven makes a huge difference. This place really tries to make a good authentic/chewy crust/not too doughy/fresh ingredients pie and they were both fantastic. FINALLY! A good pizza joint that makes authentic European style pizza. Highly recommended!
