Great menu here. I'm Mexican, and I love all types of tacos here, especially al pastor & pizza with pastor, and many other of our dishes. Also, the regular hawaian pizza tastes better than the normal. Very recomended

This place is soooo good. I had the hamburger pizza with bacon, and it is my new my favourite pizza. They use fresh ingredients and have the perfect amount of each ingredient. Thankyou Amore!

BEST TACOS IN THE AREA! (St. Albert/Edmonton) If you're looking for authentic mexican tacos this is your place. My husband and I ordered bistec, pastor and campechanos and they were AMAZING! The service was truly great, thank you so much for the attention, Aldo! As a mexican I can't say how happy I am to finally have some real tacos here 👏🏻 1000/10

The price the atmosphere the girl that rang me through. This is my new favourite place. I died and went to heaven with the mushroom burger. I can’t even explain it. I felt it in my toes and I don’t even like food that much absolutely will return the flavours the texture was everything I wanted and more. I never get excited about food, but I will be returning to this place. Absolutely impeccable and delicious perfection.

Ordered two one topping pizzas. Received one pizza with both toppings on it. Pizza was decent. The side dip had a dry, crusty piece indicating to me that it was outdated. One pizza, a bottle of soda and a container of dip totaled $60. I don't recommend this place.

Editing. Tried to have the Mexican menu twice in the last 3 months. Tonight was an epic failure. We threw out half of our food. Please fix this, you have a great opportunity to be great. Frozen chicken, yuck. Not enough meat. Bland. No cilantro as advertised. Soggy Tortilla. Do Mexican right or focus on the pizza. I will not be back until I hear it has improved. Just my 2 cents folks.

Notice something has changed. New owners. That means I'll edit my review. I should've went to Pizza 73 in the first place. For a few dollars more I would've gotten double the amount of food. I won't be coming back. The pizza tasted decent but I wouldn't say it's the best according to others.

I ordered a medium Meat Love. Pizza was very good. Lotts of topping and a good balance flavors. The Manager of the place was unprofessional and yelling at the staff while I was waiting for my pizza. Im not sure what was going on but I had to dock a star. Otherwise this would be a 5 star place.

This is our go to pizza spot in st.albert. Very good quality. Family owned i believe. Always very friendly delivery. My whole family loves it. Also cheaper then chains like panago. We generally only order their pizza. I will say the lady that answers the phone sometimes is not primarily English speaking but we always have a laugh trying to get the delivery directions through and she is delightful.

I went with my husband to eat at this restaurant, we ordered carnitas and campechanos tacos, very delicious, the carnitas have a Mexican flavor, we also tried the chilaquiles and they are very well served and delicious. If you want to try Mexican food, it is undoubtedly a place that I recommend. The price is super good compared to other places Ive gone to eat tacos.

I got a donair poutine, it was one of the worst donair poutines Ive ever had. The meat was like burnt cardboard, the meal wasnt even hot enough to melt the cheese. My friend got a super donair, and also said it was tasteless. I will not be going back to this location. The workers were really friendly, and service was good.

If youre a donair lover, you OWE it to yourself to try an Amore donair with cheese! HOMEMADE meat, edge to edge pizza mozzarella melted onto the pita right in their pizza oven. It is such a new and unique experience compared to the tired barebones donairs Ive had at other places. Such a gem!

While some people may like this, they use meat deli slices on their pizzas. I ordered a chicken pizza and I was disappointed when it was covered in chicken slices. Not what I was expecting nor what I wanted.

Lots of issues. Poor quality of ingredients, lack of supplies, cold chicken, cold food in the middle, not tasty at all. Disappointed.

December 23, 2022

After 3 years the worst service and products ever.....undercooked yeasty pizza, overcooked leaking and soggy mozzarella sticks.....a ceaser salad without dressing.......theve totally lost my business and all my friends as well, they should just shut the doors and move on to something else before they poison somebody!!

December 23, 2022

Sad to say that it is terrible. Tried on 3 separate occasions. Lumpy and thick sweet sauce, french fries are drowned in grease and completely uncooked. Focus on quality over quantity please, the menu is pages long but you can t even cook french fries. Totally inedible

Great place for really great food !

December 23, 2020

Got charged $28 for a medium pizza. This place is suspect, under new management I think

December 23, 2020

New owners have A LOT To live up to. And my first experience with them was terrible. They dropped pieces, the other pizza was burnt. And they still packaged it up and brought it. Not that much pepperoni and the other barely had any pineapple. They definitely need to practice or get more training from the previous owners. It s too bad because this was our favorite pizza place in St. Albert!

December 23, 2020

We have always just raved about and loved everything from Amore. Tonight we ordered from the new owners and were badly disappointed. Pizza dough was as hard as a rock. Pizza toppings were very dry and not very many and it seemed to lack even the flavor of pizza sauce. We have been faithful customers but unless the product improves, we wont be back.

This place is awesome! You really get a feel that there is heart put into the food and there is always plenty of toppings, way more than most restaurants. The people there are great and Im excited every time I eat here. I love Amore Pizza!!!

December 23, 2020

Will never go back. Absolutely terrible.

December 23, 2020

Gave Amore a second chance and I am sorry I did. Please keep in mind I am speaking of delivery, perhaps its better if you dine in which is impossible nowadays. Ordered the same pizza as the first time, the Pizza D Amore. I told them the last one I ordered what is suppose to be crust was so soggy dough, it was hardly eatable the only thing that saved it were the toppings which are great. So this time after explaining the last problem I asked for it to be over cooked thinking it might help. WOW was I wrong. May have something to do with the foil wrapper for donairs they use under the pizza, not the rippled cardboard. Same result and last chance. To bad because it seems like a decent pie except for that really soggy crust. Sorry Amore just telling how it is.

★★
December 23, 2020

food is lacking the original flavor the previous owners provided. The donair is so sad, Ive never had a donair in my life with that little of meat. To make it even worse the donair meat was hard and crispy. The wings have hardly any meat on them anymore and very little sauce. Pizza comes with minimal amount of toppings now. It feels like they are skimping out on things to save money. Before the new owners took over this place was AMAZING. Now basically only eat it out of convenience. .

Please note, this review is for the donair I had. I cant speak for their pizza (but it does look good). I kind of had high hopes for this donair, but was somewhat let down. The meat was quite dry and as a result didnt have much flavour. The toppings were standard, but the cheese was something different. Im not sure what they used but its almost like they melted mozza and crumbled feta. It was alright, the texture was just different than Im used to. Overall it was ok. A bit on the pricier end as far as donairs go but I wasnt upset about it. Staff was very friendly!

Got a couple pieces of pizza for lunch $3.25 each. Went in with high expectation for authentic pizza and did not leave disappointed. They had a Hawaiian and a Double Pepperoni and mushroom ready to serve 11:30am on a weekday. Lots of cheese and lots of meat. Will definitely be back for a couple pizzas. Much better than your big chain pizzas.

December 23, 2019

-If you want a good donair do Not eat here! I ve had bad donairs before but this is by far the worst ever! The meat was in thin slices like from a package and wasn t spiced right, the sweet sauce was gross and the onion was minced which blended into the gross sauce and to top it off the pita was soggy. -Also while standing there waiting for the food... the native guy in charge was rude to employees (the cashier) in front of customers. I do not recommend this place to anyone!

I ordered the most expensive Donair I could get. It had half the meat that Simply Donair uses. 6 regulars with cute little fluorescent vests came in for pizza after I placed my order and the owner filled all their orders before he frickin even started my Donair! It took a half hour to get my donair!!! Do your self a favour and never go here.

December 23, 2019

Ordered the two for one price ham & pineapple pizzas for $37.50 and picked them up. The pizzas were very substandard due to the lack of pineapple and ham. You had to search around for the two ingredients on a crust that lacked sufficient tomato sauce. This is a continual problem with the staff since the are a few times the pizza is great but on a high occasion it is not. My questions is why dont they measure and or weigh the items loaded on the pizza crust each and every time rather than disappoint customers all too often. If you want customers return produce a product with uniform consistency.

I rarely write reviews, but this place is a hidden gem and highly recommend it to anyone. I cant eat pizza with red sauce, so they custom make mine with donair sauce and its the most delicious pizza I have ever had. Ive lived in Texas, Chicago and visited NYC multiple times.

THIS IS A CRAZY GOOD DONAIR!! Homemade Donair meat.....I know right?? Unlike the crap you get from any other wannabe donair place, they buy there ground beef, and start making it from there....
