Our favourite take out pizza from the Tricities to Maple Ridge. We especially love their white F&P (fig and procsuitto) pizza. Owners are also super friendly. They get busy so you may want to order early. It's pick-up and cash only.
Do not miss this hidden gem! Authentic hand made pizza in a wood fired oven. Absolutely incredible! Not like all the other cookie cutter pizza joints out there. And Nick, the owner is amazing - such great service! From the time he answers the phone, you can tell this guy cares about people! He's authetic, down to earth, and offers service second to none. An easy 5 stars!
Absolutely incredible service, you can tell the owner is very passionate and takes pride in his work! We ordered the Artista pizza and it did not disappoint; in fact, it exceeded expectations by far out of all the stone pizzas we've tried. Was a gem close to home! We will definitely be going back regularly and recommending this place to all our friends and family!
Fabulous find! This pizza rocks. Honestly, one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had the pleasure of enjoying. Reminds me of a place in NYC I visited many years ago. Top notch. Wood fired oven, great dough, cheese and sauce. The owner Nick seems very sincere in his mission to provide fantastic personalized customer service. Naomi, the girl making the pizza, looked genuinely happy to be there. Note – bring cash -no cards accepted. I will definitely hit this place again.
A geniune experience, the owner is a absolute character. The pizza is the reason I wrote the review though, and the nutella cookie was an amazing addition! Will be going back as much as I can while I am visiting, can’t beat it.
We tried Artista for the first time today after being recommended by a friend. We didn’t realize that it’s much better to call and order ahead, but the wait for the pizza was definitely worth it. Ordered the Talk Honey pizza and it was delicious. Can’t wait to try others from here. The owner Nick was so pleasant and chatted everyone up and was so kind to let us try the massive Nutella cookies. Even after we ate our pizza and he saw us getting back into our car from inside the shop, he took the time to come outside and ask us how it was. Will definitely be back. Thank you!
By far the best pizza place I have ordered from. We looked up this place online and drove to order and pick up in person. Nick (the owner) greeted us like we have been there many times. Patiently explained the pizzas and their most popular options. While we were waiting for our order, he brought a bowl of water for our dog. Then one of the staff Naomi brought us 3 slices of freshly baked banana bread - it was amazing - all and all, they left of with a great experience. The pizzas were also delicious! We will definitely come back to this place. Truly a hidden gem.
From the phone call to the pizza this place is a gem in the rough. Order anything and you'll be happy. Best pizza in Vancouver? It's in the running. Best part is the dude that runs the place.
Our absolute favourite pizza in the Pitt meadows and ridge area. We love them. Great food and people!
Artista pizzeria, Nick and family, best pizza in town! Nick is very friendly. The pizza is made to order in a wood fire oven with fresh, quality ingredients! It s a must try, you won t be disappointed.
My oh my was that some of the best pizza I ve had in years!!! The owners were both so incredibly friendly as well, had a great convo, and learned a bit about wood fired ovens! 100% going to be my new pizza place of choice! Thanks Nick and Naomi:)
Great, old-country pizza baked in an authentic, wood-fired oven. Perfect ingredients, none of the piled-on, smothering cheese and industrial toppings most everyone else offers. The way it should be, in Italy or Canada. For a first-timer there, excellent suggestions by the owner even so much as Once a week now. Right? its around the corner, so duh!!!!
Best pizza in the lower mainland! The owner Nick and the staff are some of the kindest people I ve met
Great pizza and great service. Thanks Nick. Cheers. Food
10 years Ive been coming here. If you want to feel like family, eat good wood fire pizza, and experience how a place so small can have such a large and positive impact on its customers. Artistas your place. Nick has made me feel like family, fed me and my family over and over, and has made pizza an authentic experience. Leave the big chain brands alone. You a huge foodie? This is your stop. Ill keep coming till the day they close!
Awesome pizza. The owners great. Ask for the homemade hot sauce. Superb
A must-try even if you live several cities away. Very friendly and personable staff. The food is among the most incredible pizza in the lower mainland. The CCB and Artista House Classic are my recommendations. Note that it is cash only and there is no dining-in option.
This place is so good. Their pizza baked in real fire oven is chewy and flavorful. We live a little far from the place and were impatient to wait until getting home. We had a bite in the car while it s still warm. It was just excellent! The owner is very friendly and they give you a big cookie which is also very yummy! I m counting down for my family pizza night for ordering here again!
Absolute gem of a place. Never had a poor experience with them. House pizza and their take on the ham & pineapple are a must try. Easily the best pizza place around. Note: they are cash only.
easy 5 stars edit : no way the cookies are from this planet, I suspect Nicks oven just teleports food from heaven Food : 5/5
We have moved away from this area but this is still the best pizza we have ever had, nothing compares. Quality taste and very reasonably priced. There is definitely a wait when you order so it may not be ideal in certain situations but it is always worth the wait. Owners are amazing, personable and hospitable. And the cookies are an amazing bonus. We will always come back for this pizza!
Delicious pizza and friendly service!
Amazing pizza, amazing service.
Nick is amazing! Hes going to greet you like a friend and youll leave feeling like one! All of the pizzas Ive tried so far are absolutely incredible, the Nutella cookies are next level, and the prices are fantastic! Extremely good value and highly recommended! Heads up though, as of now, it is cash only so head up the ATM on your way. Kid-friendliness: Nick feels like the type of guy who would run a daycare and hell talk to your kids with the same respect as hell talk to your grandma and you. Kids are going to love them and theyre going to love him. Wheelchair accessibility: Street level - no stairs - no problems!
Probably the best pizza in entire Vancouver. Very authentic with those brick ovens. Best owners too. So kind and nice. It s all cash! So happy to have found this place.
Very good hand tossed thin crust wood fired brick oven pizza. Owner works in store. A one of a kind pizzeria, not a chain. Limited hours, call ahead to reserve your pizza. Food
Best pizza I have had in Ridge Meadows area so far! I used to live near a La Routa and nothing in this area satisfied that craving before trying Artista! Amazing quality and portion for the price! They were very friendly when I picked it up! Only downside is cash only being slightly inconvenient and it s a pretty small operation with limited menu and no dine in. Let s support them so they can thrive and grow!
Probably one of the best first experience Ive had in a restaurant in a long time. Very friendly and personable owner/staff. Pizza was delicious and they even give a homemade cookie with each order which was better than most cookies that cost $5+. I will definitely make the trip from Poco just to have their pizza.
The owner brought me a hand delivered pizza at my job late one night as a courtesy. Always a very friendly guy and a good chat. Definitely the best pizza I have had in awhile, very flavourful. The cookies are massive and worth trying!
This place is a hidden gem in pitt meadows - so glad we found it! The pizza is the best on this side of the bridge. The owner and employees are AMAZING. Cant recommend Artista more!
First timmer today, and it was well worth the wait. So yummy and glad I took the cookie. OMG to both. Diana
I m kicking myself for not going here sooner. Hands down the best pizza in Pitt Meadows. Real ingredients, real crust, and great people. Can t wait to try more.
Drove out from 240th for the CCB pizza...its SO good. The owner is incredibly nice! Best pizza in the Fraser Valley by far!
As soon as I walked in the owner was immediately friendly and welcoming! Ordered the house special and F&P and they were delicious. I ll definitely be back!
The owner is good man had a good conversation and very welcoming. The food (pizza) is what we were searching from long. the price are very reasonable 25$ for large which seems like xL.
We wanted pizza and saw the great reviews. Unfortunately for us Californians they take cash only and no dine in. Disappointed we started to leave when an employee asked if we wanted fresh peanut butter cookies! Wow so yes! We had the best conversation with Nick, owner. Nicest guy and gal. Please give them your business! Best customer service ever.
Fantastic real deal pizza, you cannot beat their crust and the toppings are flavor balanced and super delicious! Very reasonable take out only, bring CASH!
Awesome pizza and super friendly, welcoming owner and staff. The house special pizza was delicious and we cant wait to try some of the others on the menu. Well definitely be back soon!
Great food! Great people! What more is there.... oh of course the free hot baked giant cookie!
Absolutely delicious pizza...plus they gave me a free cookie!!
The best Pizza in lower mainland. Absolutely loved the Pizza and the service. Since their card machine wasnt working and I didnt have cash to pay but the owner said I dont want you guys to just leave, you can pay me next time. Thats rare in todays world!! Glad to have a wonderful experience with food and service.
Really Italian pizza made by Italians.
Great owner, great pizza and even better Nutella cookies.
I normally don t write reviews but this place blew me away! The reviews don t lie. This pizzeria is definitely worth 5 stars. I ordered the XL 1/2 House Special, 1/2 Pepperoni and it s HUUUUGE - such great value! The pizza was amazing - chewy, yet crisp and super flavorful. And don t get me started on their cookies!! Wow, you MUST try them. Nick, the owner, is a genuine guy - you can tell he cares about people and not just as customers. FYI; This is a cash only, takeout spot. So worth it!! I wish this place were closer to my neighbourhood! I will definitely be back.
Great owner great wood fire oven pizza. This is in my top 3 there is just something to be said about authentic Italian pizza and the guy is Italian you can t get more authentic than this! Edit: the owner did me a solid even after I called him to tell him the order was wrong which ended up being my mistake! Nick your stand up guy and I ll be glad to spend my money for your pizza any day thanks a lot I really appreciate it!
My wife and I were in the neighborhood so we decided to try this place out for dinner since the reviews are so good. This place met and exceeded all of our expectations! The owner was friendly and explained the menu to us when we arrived. We ordered half house and half ham/pineapple and were given 2 complimentary cookies. Everything was delicious! Often when you eat a pizza you feel bloated and gross afterwards but it wasnt the case with the pizza here. The ingredients were all high quality and fresh, and the crust was perfect. Highly recommend
Randomly stumbled across this pizza place when visiting Pitt Meadows and decided to check it out after seeing all the great reviews. My partner and I were floored by both the owner, Nicks, friendliness and hospitality, as well as the quality of the food! The pizza and nutella cookies were to die for, and such a great value too! You can tell Nick is such a genuine person who cares about his customers and community deeply. With great food and amazing ownership, even though we arent local to the area we will certainly be regulars! :)
You know the second You walk in this place, best pizza, best people. And the place gives you the feeling you want to experience. Not from around here but this gem is one to tell people about. Thank you for the experience Food
Delicious pizza, great service and prices were very reasonable. The cookie was delicious too.
High quality, legit pizzas! Reasonably priced and friendly service. No dine in currently and bring cash only. Easy 5 stars!
Best pizza in Pitt Meadows/Maple Ridge! Authentic wood fire pizza is our favourite and Artista is fantastic. You won t be disappointed. Love supporting locally owned businesses!
What a refreshing change. Worth the effort
OMG so good!
Best pizza ever
So tasty!!! Definitely recommend going here.
The owner was so friendly! The pizza was delicious: creative combination of topping, good balance of sauce to stuff to crust, and the most delicious freshly made crust I ve had in years. It s cash only and take out only and the flavour is SOOO worth the effort.
Fantastic artisan pizza! Wonderful service when I picked up our order.
Amazing pizza!
The pizza itself was very good, however their hours are all over the place.
First of all, Nick is the nicest person ever and is a pleasure to chat with. Second, but not less important is that the pizza is great. Wood fired oven pizza made with love just hits differently. This is hands down the best pizza in a 10 mile radius. And the ability to get an 18 pizza is also a big plus for a large family.
Once you try this place out, your never going to want to eat pizza anywhere else!!!
Loved this place, we will be back
Hands down the best pizza in Pitt Meadows and surrounding areas.
Nick and his family make a solid pizza! That tomato sauce base is delicious. The dough is chewy and has a nice crisp to it too. The house pizza was tasty! Cookies for kid customers. I sneaked a bite and while the peanut butter was tasty, the Nutella was better. Super friendly service. Note that it s cash only and takeout only.
Top notch pizza and staff!!!
run dont walk to this little gem nick and his team have long been serving delicious pies from this humble shop in pitt meadows. just tucked in behind the jolly coachman pub wood fired and amazing thin crust pies ... couple things to note they are take out only and cash only and have a high volume so times to pick up can run slow as they try to get all there customers fed but always worth the wait and ask if they have cookies the delicious peanut butter chocolate chip cookies made in house are large and soft and soooo amazing we are very happy to support this business its not chain style cheap pizza but once you bite in your taste buds w thank you
The kind of place you want to succeed. You feel welcomed the minute you walk through the door by the staff and the owner. The food was well made and the quality of ingredients and care from those who prepared them was apparent.
Legit. Best pizza Ive had, but that Nutella cookie tho
Finally got around to trying Artista and we were not disappointed! We tried the CCB and House Special and both were unique and flavorful. Weve already started planning to order again and try another two new flavors!
Nick was so friendly when I arrived early to wait for my food. The pizza was amazing and the cookie was one of the best I have ever had( and I am definitely picky with my cookies and pizza)
The best wood fire pizza you will ever have! The pizzas are quite large and have plenty of toppings. The owner and cook and the kindest people. They get very busy on the weekend, so make sure you phone in and get your spot. They are normally cash only as well, so plan accordingly. When you order a pizza you have to get the cookies they make. The cookies are hot and taste really good, can t miss them. This place is definitely a gem in Pitt Meadows.
Very tasty pizza . Just awesome !
Been going to this for 6 years plus and the pizza has the same quality as the first day I went . The pizza is simply amazing and the best Ive ever had and will keep having it for a long time !!! House special is amazing my favorite but the rest of the pizzas are also great!!
Worth the hype.
Love this spot! Every time we bring an Artista pizza to a pizza party there are no leftovers. The fresh from the oven cookies are delicious as well. As everyone else already noted, Nick is a lovely human!!
$25 for a large 18 pizza that s cooked in wood oven!!!!!!! I just moved to this neighborhood and I think I found my go to pizza spot
I am so grateful that this community (Pitt Meadows, located on the ancestral lands of the Katzie First Nation) has this local pizza gem. I am obsessed with the F&P. It s sooooo good! It s the perfect marriage of sweet and salty. Nick the owner is the best. LOVE this place. The dough and the cheese is like no other. If you like authentic Neapolitan style pizza, this is the place. The picture does not do it justice.
Best pizza (and nutella cookies) in the lower mainland
Fantastic pizza and service. Will be back!
Best pizza I ve tried in bc, cute family owned business that has great service!
Through and through a 5 star Experience. Nick and Niaomi make an amazing Pizza, and give you the friendliest experience Ive personally ever experienced. Its one thing to make incredible food, but its on a whole other level when you can also deliver a service that makes you smile and feel valued as a customer. Do yourself a favour and stop by for one of the best wood fired pizzas you may ever have. I highly recommend trying the Chicken, Cranberry, Brie!
I just very like this pizza restaurant, food is so delicious !
Amazing pizza, probably the best ive ever tasted
Still THE best pizza around! A unique experience, the owner is an absolute gem of a human being.
Good pizza good management
Best pizza Ive had in a long while. Guy was very friendly, good vibes all round.
I thoroughly enjoyed chatting with this crew and devoured the delicious pizza. We ordered the chicken cranberry. Money well spent. Will be going back.
Absolutely love this style of pizza and quality. I dont think Pitt Meadows deserves this top tier pizza but boy am I grateful. Beware the 18 inch are massive. Worth every penny but massive
Absolutely best pizza shop in the area. I drive all the way from Burke Mountain to get pizza from Nick.
Best pizza ever! Perfect amount of cheese, toppings and sauce. Doesn t make you feel heavy. However, you do feel full after! I personally drive from further out just for this pizza ! Their Cesar salad is also phenomenal, and I m not a salad person. Their Cesar salad is the only Cesar salad I ll eat!
Stumbled upon this gem as we just moved to the area. The owners and staff were hospitable and very friendly. The pizza is amazing. I definitely recommend eating here as it might just be the best pizza youve ever had!
Great authentic pizza place. The owner takes care so everything is perfect.
We picked up a pizza from Nick s and everything was great. Super friendly service as we waited the last few minutes for the pizza to cook, great value, and a seriously delicious pizza. This place is legit, we watched the chef spinning the dough before throwing it in the wood fire oven. Chef s Chocochip cookies were also amazing
One of the best pizzas in Vancouver area
Nick and his family make some of the most beautiful pizza youll have, I havent had anything this wonderful in years!
We have heard many good things about Artista and had been unsuccessful trying to for a while. We were finally able to order it on a Sunday and it did not disappoint! Pizza made and cooked to perfection!! We stuck to the basics (a cheese pizza and a pepperoni pizza). Both were incredible and surprisingly filling! Highly recommend trying it, it s worth the wait times!
Hands down best pizza in the Ridge Meadows Area! Well worth the wait
This is the best pizza ever! It s definitely worth the wait!
I come here every few weeks, awesome pizza.
We walked in on a whim, and decided to try a Capricciosa pizza. Even though they were booked solid from online / phone orders, they managed to squeeze our pizza in. The pizza was delicious; the edges were crispy but not burnt, the middle was toasted but still soft. The store is a little small and hard to see while driving by, but it is definitely worth the stop.
Ordered here for the first time last week based on the positive reviews and I was not disappointed. The flavors and freshness of the ingredients was outstanding. Far better than the lifeless neapolitan style pizzas you find at the newer chains around the area. Staff/owners are very friendly as well. Ill be back regularly and Id like to try the whole menu! -Rob
Stopped in today for my first time after reading such great reviews. Well they definitely lived up to their hype! The pizza was delicious, in fact it was the best pizza i have had in ages. And their ceasar salad was so good as well. The jumbo cookie was a bonus! As was the owners (? I think they were the owners) they were so kind and slid my order in for me and it was done FAST which was super helpful as i had a little one with me. I would absolutely recommend this pizzeria and if i lived closer i would become a regular customer!
Absolutely INCREDIBLE!! Awesome people.
Helpful, excellent white pizza option... Loved it.
Amazing wood fired pizza with delicious options and big portions. Great local spot with friendly staff and owners who remember you and often add a cookie/brownie on the house
Best REAL pizza in the lower mainland!!
A nice family run restaurant that uses only fresh ingredients and it shows in their pizza! This place is a gem!
First time having pizza at this pizzeria. Wood fired pizza oven makes it so delicious. My wife and I will definitely be back. Thank you to Nick and his staff for making our experience positive!!!! Try the cookies too! Great location in Pitt Meadows. Cheers, Ron & Leanne Paley
Best pizza in Metro Vancouver! Generous portions, authentic taste, great owners! Well definitely be back
Great pizzas! Incredible crust and quality toppings. Can t go wrong with any of them but the F&P is the best!! Highly recommended.
Nick is a stand up dude. In my opinion, after eating wood-oven pizza all over the lower mainland, he s the best! Support your local business, SYAY AWAY from chains. Peace
One of the best pizza places in the lower mainland. Great customer service.. These people know pizza and go above and beyond for the customer. The wood oven is Keep up the good work.
Very yummy pizza and excellent Nutella cookies. Great staff, Thank you Nick!
Some of the best pizza and service you will find, ever. The owner is amazing. The free desserts they give out sometimes are amazing. Everything about this place is great.
Tried here for the first time tonight and the pizzas are really flavourful and very reasonably priced! Very friendly staff! They gave two Nutella cookies on the house too straightforward to order and cash only.
Good
Its wonderfull wood fire pizza.
Tasty and delicious food! Very light on the palate. Highly recommend!!
Best GD pizza east of Vancouver!
Never would understand how people could get upset with a person making pizza for a living, because he didn t have debit card service to cut overhead costs during a pandemic. This is not a chain food restaurant, we have to support the small entrepreneurs! Besides all that, It s the best damn pizza you ll have in the lower mainland, not just Pitt\MR area.
So delicious! Authentic, Italian, wood oven pizza. The house classic with fennel sausage, pepperoni, and ricotta cheese is our favourite. You have to go here!
This is a local small business, owner is hard working guy makes great pizza and is very passionate about it. My favourite is the blue cheese one but you have to be a blue cheese lover to appreciate its complex flavours. He takes the time to get to know his customers and adds the personal touch of including the most amazing Giant Nutella cookies to each order until he runs out of cookies. I believe he even had the pizza oven sent from Italy. This pizza is best fresh and hot; when reheating, do it in the oven for optimal results. Support your local small business!
Awesome pizza. You can tell its fresh, handmade and from the brick oven. Thanks!
Great pizza cash only
Absolutely the most lovely of small business owners that Ive come across in a long time. Ill try them again for sure but will be careful to ask if there are any substitutions made before paying for my order. They were out of mozzarella and used ricotta instead on my pizza which was just not my cup of tea. Also I was shocked that a printing error which resulted in my receiving a completely different pizza than I thought I ordered was not offered to be rectified when I called to inform them od what I thought to be a mix up. Sadly I ended up tossing more than half our order as a result. THE SAVING GRACE was the owner Nick being so incredibly fantastic and lovely to speak to. For this reason and their out of this world ceaser dressing I will give them another chance and order again in the future but will definitely ask some extra questions to be sure Im getting what it shows on the menu. I genuinely hope Nic and Artista Pizza make it to the other side of this pandemic and work out some of their kinks because being able to get a wood fired pizza in the area is a big treat when it runs smoothly.
Pizza is made in a stone wood fired oven and tastes unbelievably good. Definitely my favorite pizza place.
If you arent sure where to order from yet, order from Artista. Easily the best pizza weve had, not only is the pizza amazing, the owner nick is a great guy and more than worth supporting. My one regret is that Im ordering more pizza than normal because its so damn good (take out due to public health orders). Super clean, safe environment and amazing pizza! Will continue to support them for good reason! Theyre the best!
Was very good for my first time! Will definitely return .
His sauce is the Boss! The crust is a Must! The cheese, yes please! Eat at your own risk cuz its addictive!
First time ordering from Artista and it was fantastic! Great service with very much appreciated recommendations and flavorful pizzas. I will be ordering again. :)
They are awesome people and have an excellent menu. I couldnt recommend the CCB more! Good salads and sides as well.
Pizza was great and the owner was a good chat while waiting for the pizza also the complimentary cookie is a bonus
Great place
Best Ceasers Salad by far.........price is amazing.
Delicious pizza everytime, the owner is super nice and takes pride in his business. Sometimes if youre lucky youll get a bonus chocolate banana bread with your pizza. The ingredients are top notch, this isnt pizza you use dipping sauce with as it doesnt need any.
Lovely family operated shop. Everyone is always so friendly with impeccable service. Food is second to none in the city. Just go here, you won t regret it.
Great owner and such a great price! You get more than you pay for :) definitely check this out!
This pizzeria is a local hidden gem. You can tell that each pizza is made with true love and passion for real authentic Italian food. It pays homage to the Italian culture. If you havent eaten here, youre missing out in life. Nick the owner, is such a giving and a real person. Hes so personable. Their Nutella cookies are a must try. The experience at Artista Pizzeria is unforgettable.
Great Pizza, made and service by amazing people
Awesome New York style pizzas. Very popular, so if you dont call in early on a weekend they can run out of dough. These are wood oven cooked Pizzas
Love Love Love this pizza place, i am jealous to the people that lives in that neighourhood. Their pizza is fresh and delicious and the crust... it absolutely YUMMY. You can tell by the quality of it . It definitely worth the drive and you really have to try it! You wouldnt be disappointed. I lived in Maple Ridge and it became our new favourite pizza place in the household.
Amazing pizza and great vibe - we came hungry after a hike and were so glad to find this gem of a place! Nick treated us like family and we are already scheming our next trip to the area just so we can have another slice! Also, let s not forget to pay respects to the cookie!!!
Amazing pizza. Hefty, quality toppings and real Italian hospitality. Also, the giant super delicious cookie was a nice touch and a surprise after the fulfilling pizza. Cant wait for next time.
A little on the pricey side, but it was worth it. Not your run of the mill pizza.. It is pizza with style. Wood oven baked, and made in a way you would not get from a standard pizza place.
Pizza is good. However the hours are hit and miss.
Great local joint. Love their signature pizzas with their own taste profile. I wish more small businesses like these are supported during these tough times
Absolutely delicious! Will be back for more
It s true, the pizza here is incredible. The staff are, too. I had the F&P, and it s the first time a restaurant has done a blue cheese pizza right to me.
Love their pizza.. fresh and everything g is hand made.. awesome.e owner and staff. Try it once and you will be addicted.
Our first time trying out this gem of an authentic Italian wood oven pizza place. Nick is a great guy and the pizza Chef makes an incredible pizza and Caesar salad! My wife Sabrina and I will definitely be back!!
WOW ! My first pizza here, it was amazing ! fire baked fresh quality ingredients an absolute delight to the palette. Can not say enough good things about this find + Nick and the chef are amazing to. Makes you feel like your a valued customer invited over as a dinner guest ( this is now a rare thing to find ) super warm and friendly A+++ service !. Oh- and with my pizzas, came a freshly baked jumbo lip smakn chocolate cookie for dessert ! Yummmmmmm Y !! Highly recommended !!
Best pizza around. The owner is awesome!!!
Went there on a quiet Saturday after googling authentic style neapolitan pizza. Boy was I happy to find this place. The owner Nick greeted us immediately after we walked in and introduced himself, really made us feel welcome. There is a huge wood burning brick oven you see right when you walk in. The pizza is authentic, the crust the toppings, everything is just fresh and as it should be in a real pizza. We live in Maple ridge, its a 9.6km drive and I dont mind driving every day to get this pizza if the mood strikes. Definitely going back and telling everyone.
The owner is very welcoming, from my time there it looks like he takes the time to memorize his customers names and how they are. He takes a lot of time to learn about customers and is very personal, but not in an offending way. I catch him small talking customers a lot which actually made me avoid the business as he looked busy.. He probably isnt, so dont worry about going in. This is probably a side effect of the hospitality I mentioned earlier. The pizza is solid and delicious, there is cheese drag and string to it which is the mark of a craftsman. I went with cheese and Hawaiian to gauge how it stacks up against other pizza places and I would say its Michelin star worthy. The pizza also has a nice depth to it, not too thin where youre left hungry but not too thick where it becomes overly filling. Great ingredients to dough ratio. The sauce is well constructed too, the hot sauce seemed to be a tomato sauce sriracha blend with peppers, but ask for the Caesar sauce, its actually super delicious (almost a shrimp like taste) and will probably be one of the best Caesar sauces youll have tasted. Would have loved to see how the owner can make his own blend of cheddar habanero dip or cheese dip, as they dont carry any of the Hainez dips. Where we come short is, the establishment is small and looks like it used to be a sushi bar, theres only room for 2 groups, the owner has paper all over the bar counter so you cant eat there. Hes always in small talk so its hard to tell if they are open to take your order. Missing staple dips and cash only (but I was under the impression this is temporary as he said his machine is down and seems to been down for at least 2 weeks).
The best pizza-and the owner is amazing! Stay close to home and support your local businesses :)))
Amazing little Italian Pizzeria, well priced for its size and the best flavour. I eat here atleast once a week everything on the menu is great!
Was very impressed by this place. The owner was awesome and very personable. The food was great. This is now my go to pizza place.
Amazing craft pizza cooked in a brick oven with a wood fire. Very friendly owner.
Excellent pizza!! everytime!
Very nice people and excellent pie! Recommend the house special red pizza, it s delicious : )
Their authentic wood fired pizza is so good. And their Ceasar salad with homemade dressing and croutons is a favourite. The owner is very friendly and always there. Support an independent local business owner!
Continuously the best pizza I ve ever had! Amazing cookies too.
Best pizza in Metro Vancouver! Simple as that! The friendly customer service that Nick and his family provide is the cherry on top of it.
So my wife and I just moved to Pitt Meadows and were on the hunt for a good spot to get pizza... well............... we will only be calling Artista from now on... not only are they open for take out during covid but we were greeted and had a nice chat with the owner Nic and he was such a awesome guy Great price, amazing pizza ... reminds me of my time in Italy !!!!! Deff recommend these guys
1at time there. Walked in off street, friendly greetings, amazing pizza and priced great
Phenomenal pizza!!! I grew up NYC and this is the closest in taste and quality to what we have back home.
A great eating experience. Highly recommended.
Great pizza and great people. We go often !
Love it!
Awesome and authentic pizza. We haven t been able to find anything comparable to what we had on vacation in Italy and Croatia but now we have! For family of four we had the big House special pizza, caprese and ceasar salad. The free cookies were yummy and appreciated! We ll be ordering again when the craving strikes.
Wood fired pizza, crunchy caesar salad, nutella cookies = bliss
I live their pizza!!!
Amazing food and service
First timer trying this joint out. Must say that Nick - Owner made our experience unforgettable. From walking outside to let us know it will be a few more minutes and then bringing out 3 Coca Cola pops on the house was a pleasant surprise. Most authentic thing Ive tasted and will become a weekly tradition for me. Only place to visit! Thanks Nick! See you soon! Harley Guy
The best pizza in BC!
Been a customer since they opened and never have disappointed me. Great pizza. Love the combinations and the flexibility to create your own.
Lived here for 9 months and didnt even know this place is here. We walked by and the smell caught our attention. Pizza and staff are superb. The salad was one of the best I ever had which was a big surprise. Will always order from here now!
The best Italian pizza, and very nice staff,. Highly recommended
Owner & hospitality - Amazing! Pizza - Good, but nothing to write home about.
Probably the best pizza I ve ever had!! Some of them are massive at 18 and It s clear they put a lot of care into making fresh, quality, fire oven pizza at a fair price. The owner (or manager) is usually working the front and he notices whether you are new or a regular and he s very welcoming. Only downside is they are currently cash only and make sure you call early or it may be hard to get through to get orders in on busy weekend nights.
If you love euro style pizza this is your place North of the Portman/ Golden ears bridges. We ordered 1 reg 2 extra large. The reg was perfect the xlarge more doughy. Our first time experiencing that and all other pizzas in the past have been great so will go with the full 5 stars. The owner is super friendly always chatty and offering cookies when available on pick up and Naomi is a little beast in the kitchen. You can see/ feel the hard work they put into this place. Add a Cesar salad salad to your order so yummy!!
Delicious, authentic and amazing!! Always a pleasure devouring one of their pizzas!
Best pizza in maple ridge and pitt meadows
Forget Pitt Meadows, Artista Pizzeria is one of Poo s fav places for pie in all of the Lower Mainland! Top quality ingredients, excellent crust that holds up, and friendly staff makes this a winner. The chicken brie pizza in particular is incredible. Keep in mind this place has no signage so is practically impossible to spot unless you re specifically looking for it, is pretty much take out only (they have 1 table I think), and is cash only last time I checked. A sacred gem out east
Pizza was delicious, service was friendly, price was super fair! Will for sure be back! Ordered a 18 NY style half cheese half pepperoni. The sauce is my favourite part.
