We came here for a small company group lunch and the pizza we got was delicious! The restaurant itself is small but cozy. They have a few tables with two being at the windows. They also have two TVs: one above the dining area and one above the cashier counter that is usually playing a Jays, Leafs or Raptors game. There is an antique lamp above the shelf where they keep ready-made pizza slices. We ordered a whole large Pepperoni pizza and it was absolutely divine. It came hot and fresh out of the oven so the cheese just melted in the mouth. The nice touch they put on the pizza was fresh basil leaves, which gave it a sweet fragrance and taste. The homemade creamy garlic dips it came with was just the cherry on top. They paired perfectly with the piping hot and spicy pepperoni. You can also tell the staff are very hardworking. This is a great place to get a slice of delicious pizza made from quality ingredients. They are very busy though so try to order ahead of time!

The restaurant itself has a small amount of simple dine in seating. We ordered the big roni with mushroom to go. The pizza itself had a great sauce, and was a crispy brown underneath. Unfortunately the crust was toasty, and even burnt in some places. The pepperoni were clumped and stacked together instead of evenly spread which led to some of them pepperoni not being cooked. Now the garlic sauce was some of the best we’ve had, great texture and not an overpowering taste of garlic. Overall 4/5, would try it again.

This is a wonderful pizza shop along Queen Street just east of Woodbine that serves delicious pizza with a variety of premium toppings including vegetarian options with catchy names. I have had various slices here on a multitude of occasions and they have always been outstanding - in fact some of the best tasting pizza I’ve had in Toronto. The slices are generous in portion size and there are a variety of condiments free of charge one can add to their slices. The owner/server is courteous and professional. There is plenty of seating available inside the pizza parlour if you want to dine in. All in.all this is a great addition to the Beaches area of Toronto.

Can't believe it took me so long to discover Otherside! Hands down, this pizza place is a hidden gem in our neighborhood. The quality and taste of their pizza are on par with the best in NYC — I'm genuinely impressed. The crust is perfectly crispy on the outside and light and chewy on the inside while the sauce is tangy and delicious. We ordered 'The Kevin', a straight up chesse pie, definitely a top 3 in Toronto. While I'm not one for too many toppings, I took a leap and also ordered 'The Nora'. Wow, this is a fusion masterpiece, marriage of a classic cheese pie with bold Korean flavours featuring bulgogi... sheer genius! I will be a regular at Otherside. Thank you Dave for setting up shop in the east end!

We found this hidden gem in the beaches and we were instantly impressed with the service, quality of products used, and how great the staff was with kids. After dining in and tasting various items on the menu we were sold on choosing Otherside Pizza as the caterers for our daughters birthday party. Dave was really great to work with and was very accommodating. All the pies were made fresh to order and on time. We love supporting local businesses and we’re so happy we chose them to be apart of our daughters big day. All the guests were happy and complimented the pizzas - even days after. Thank you, thank you. If you’re ever in the beaches stop by for a slice or a pie, don’t forget to get the basil garlic dipping sauce.

One bite, everyone knows the rules! The pepperoni pizza had good undercarriage but was charred to the point of being burnt. It changed the entire taste of the pizza. All I could taste is char. 5.6/10 The Mikey on the other hand was too floppy and a bit undercooked. 6.1/10 the pizza sizes are on the large side. Bigger than other speciality pizza restaurants. I was disappointed with both pizzas since I had high expectations based on the high reviews.

★★★★★

The pies are huge. We got one 18” and two single slices to feed 4 adults and actually had a couple of slices left over. The King Roni should definitely appeal to pepperoni pizza lovers, with lots of crispy, tasty slices covering the pizza, but personally I thought it was The Beach that stood out. It’s their take on the Hawaiian, but the combination of flavours - the sweet pineapple and red onion, the salty Spam and bacon, the heat of the peppers, and the cilantro - was delicious. Overall, a nicely done thin crust, and a good sauce to topping ratio. I’m not a dipping fan normally, but the Basil Garlic dip is a must try addition

Picked up a pepperoni slice but wasn't expecting the slice to be so big. Thin crust with a nice undercarriage loaded with pepperoni that wasn't too spicy or salty. Perfect amount of cheese and nice tangy tomato sauce Came back for cheese and pepperoni/mushroom/bacon slice. Both really good. Finally picked up a full pie(Mikey). It was really good. 18 inch for $30 can't go wrong This place don't miss. 8.5/10

Drove down to the beach at 12:15 as listed on Google as their opening time is noon on Wednesday (updated a week ago) and they were closed, swung by again at about 12:45 and same. Called and no VM. Maybe they closed down??

August 23, 2024

We ordered online as their site said they were open, but when we went to pick up our pizza the store was closed! At least post online if you re not going to be open on a Friday afternoon! Very disappointed and we probably won t bother to order from them again! no idea how the pizza is as we weren t able to try it!

I consider myself a pizza snob. Bought a couple of slices just to test them out and wow this great pizza. Tasted like old school Ontario style pizza from back in the days where pizza was cooler than hamburger joints. I will definitely be ordering pizza from here again. The dude behind the counter was great - hes like oh theres a mushroom on that peperoni slice. That mushroom sliver was yummy too. Im saving the cheese slice for tomorrow.

We recently ordered takeout from Otherside for the first time, and I was pleased they could accommodate a half-cheese, half-pepperoni pie (The Kevin and King Roni). The slices I had were great - not too charred or floppy. The base sauce on The Kevin was flavourful and added unexpected depth to what would have been an ordinary cheese slice. The slices are massive and can easily be split in half. Don t forget to get a few basil dip sauces as well. Safe to say, we ll be returning for more! Vegetarian options: The Kevin is a great vegetarian option - the herbs/spices in the sauce of the cheese slice amp up the flavour profile.

Went there to grab a quick bite, got 3 slices to share and eat. The pepperoni one was burnt when they put it in the oven to reheat and upon asking that instead can you give something else or another slice of pepperoni they said that it is the last slice and we re not making any more. Had to pay and get the burnt slice. The cheese slices were good nothing special. Looking at 4.9 stars on Google I had high hopes but nothing great, very very basic and okay in taste. Out of the 3 that we tasted, the cheese one was average.

April 23, 2024

One of the worst pizzas I ve ever had. Burnt with barely any cheese or sauce. I am shocked there are so many 5 star reviews. Excellent customer service though.

To everyone saying the pizza is floppy .well duh. A cardboard box is literally a sauna for a pizza. Simple fix: when you get home simply throw a few slices on a pan at low heat, it re-crisps the bottom in minutes. Delicious place! Keep your prices reasonable and quality high, and we ll be lifetime customers. Btw if you re vegetarian or like veggie pizzas my favourite combo is The Kevin with onions mushrooms roasted garlic jalapeño.

Checked out this spot last minute on a spontaneous night. We got half Beaches and half Mikey. I got to say the dough here is superb! Light, airy, thin and the crust you can eat on its own. The Beaches is definitely a must try. You get that sweet, savoury, salty and spice. The Serrano peppers give a nice kick which I really liked. Might be too spicy for some but if you re a spicy lover this give you enough heat without ruining flavour. The Mikey, what can I say when the pepperoni curls you know it s going to be great. Price is definitely fair considering it s a massive pie, could feed 4-6 ppl. Next time I will request a smaller size cut if they allow, just easier to manage eating in my opinion because the slice size was too big, gets floppy since it s thin crust. Quality of all toppings, size of pie to price ratio is definitely worth it.

Great spot for pizza! I had the Nora and the Burrata. Also got the OS salad. Both pizzas were delicious. The Nora is not too spicy with the kimchi aioli, along with the bulgogi, gave the pizza that Korean twist while still maintaining the undeniable characteristics of a pizza. The garlic ricotta on the Nora is a nice touch too. The Burrata hit all the classic notes - flavourful marinara, fresh basil and the creamy burrata cheese all on a crispy and lightly chewy pizza crust. Great for game day or any day really. Owner and the staff are real ones too.

I ate at the otherside pizza parlour just a short time ago. First of all I want to say the place is so cozy and what makes it real special are the two gentlemen who run it. I can t say enough about Crosby and Dave, who both possess wonderful and charming personality s . Now to the real task at hand . The Pizzas . I found the entire menu of pizzas to be very different and unique. I personally loved the Buratta pizza, such a simple yet tasty pizza, the texture of the Buratta cheese made it so incredible. Add the fresh basil leaves, fresh pecorino and garlic oil to that , now we got ourselves a party!!!!! For any real pizza lover who appreciates high-quality ingredients, I highly recommend you head down to Queen street and give it a go, you will not be disappointed. Dee

The best pizza I ve had in the city by far! Plus incredible service! When we first ordered the greens and ricotta to go, they gave us a box to keep the arugula separate so it wouldn t wilt on our journey home - how can that be beat? Thin crust, great sauce, quality ingredients and a perfect cook every time without any kind of unnecessary grease. Sometimes I ve had to wait for my order simply because they re so busy, and honestly I would wait a lifetime for a slice - so, so worth it!

There is pizza and there is Pizza. This is PIZZA. Dining in is definitely preferred as the crust is pretty much perfect. And crust is really what pizza is all about and getting it right is the art.

Really good Pizza. Had the Mikey. Dough was on point, with a slightly sweet sauce, and small pepperoni so you get a couple in each bite. Staff were super friendly, like almost to the point where I felt they knew me. Will be back to try The Beach.

We were nearby for a concert and went here before the show to get food. The dude who greeted us had to have been the owner - friendly, had the Leafs game on, greeted us warmly. Waited about 15 minutes for a freshly made pepperoni pizza. On our walk back to where we parked, someone walking by literally stopped us and asked if they could see the pizza because they had heard such great things. Pizza was great. Maybe TOO much pepperoni, but thats just me. Big fricking pizza. Ate a slice 5 hours later and it was still delicious. I think next time i would ask for well done, but thats preference. 8/10 would go when were back in town with time to enjoy once again.

Wow! Othersides crust is perfect (light, chewy with a bit of a crisp), so any of the pizzas would be great but the Nora and the Beach are my favourite! Dave is so welcoming and passionate about what he does. This is a must try! Make sure you get the basil garlic dipping sauce!

This pizzeria is a fantastically formidable, and a gloriously gluttonous gastronomical journey of discovery for the Torontonian pizza connoisseurs. Chef Dave, makes fabulous pizza sauce, sublime crust, however, the piece de resistance is their superlatively superior secret tasty morsel the roasted pineapple on the pizza. The pineapple, and their cheese blend are both beyond reproach, and compare. Worthy of the 5.0 stars, for they are wholly commendable, and recommendable, henceforth, and futuristically thus then.

This place is definitely the best pizza Ive ever had in Toronto !! Theyre rating of 4.9 does not lie. It should be a 5 !!! The pizza was delicious. The crust was amazing. Toppings perfect and that sauce . I went to Badiali pizza last week and waited 1hr and 50 mins, their pizza was great but the Otherside is definitely a step above. Dave, the owner is a class act. Anyone that Loves Pizza must try this place. You will not be disappointed. 5 star

Pizza is better on the other side. Keep those words in mind, as the folks behind Otherside Pizza are pushing out some seriously good pizza. From classics such as margherita, cheese, or pepperoni, some of their home grown ideas like the Nora are where it is at. Named after their daughter who is a mix of Italian and Korean, the Korean bulgogi, scallions, and kimchi aioli are a sleeper combination. Run, dont walk to Otherside.

Got delivery on 2 pizzas and a salad. And mustn t forget the basil dip. The pizzas I heard were on the floppy side but it was quite the opposite. They were perfectly crisp and the pizza was excellent. Whoever topped the pepperoni did a marvellous job and some spots had a nice stack of pepperoni - not stingy at all! Prices are on point and the pizzas are huge. Really enjoyed them and will certainly have again.

The pizza place that does not make enough dough. Its almost laughable to me as someone who has worked in the restaurant industry for over 14 years. How about tomorrow you make ten extra doughs . They cost you nothing to make and to not have pizza for customers 1 hour before closing is just flat out a joke. How about going to KFC and they dont have chicken. Jokes. Their pizza is good dont get me wrong . Buy its not that good. There are many other places in the city with better pizza. There prices are high for the amount of toppings you get anyways. Total fail on there part. Good way to lose a local .

The pizzas are so delicious - perfect crust, fresh ingredients, and massive slices. We got the burrata and pepperoni pies and yummy garlic dip.

Not only is it fantastic pizza but the staff/owner/management are amazing. Truly go out of their way to make sure every customer gets the best possible pie. Pizza is unreal and unique.

My brother and I were craving a late night slice and decided on Otherside Pizza on Queen. We ordered the King Roni and were disappointed at all! Nice crispy crust and base followed by a tender airy dough that wasn t heavy. The cheese and char cup pepperonis went well together, with a nice touch of fresh oregano on top. Met the owner (what a gent), he made us feel welcome and of course provided great service and care to us. The atmosphere was laid back and eye appealing with lots of space on the table to eat. Looking forward to trying out the other selections soon. Great place!
