Good pizza for on the go munching! I like the variety of options. Quality is much better than your regular fast food chain.

August 11, 2024

I got the walk-in pepperoni pizza and it came with a nail baked in! The nail had fallen into the pizza dough, and the employee seemed to know right away where it came from (fell out of a brush) but he served us the pizza anyway!! It was in my slice and I noticed it as I bit down on something hard and sharp. Meanwhile, I had my toddler with me and he could have swallowed it! I don't know what was more horrifying, the incident itself or the lack of compassion from the employee I reported it to! He was even hesitant to provide a refund for the pizza we obviously did not continue eating. Suffice to say, we will not be dining here again.

The pizza tasted fine, but I'm giving 1 star for horrible delivery service. I placed my order at 6:14pm and the pizza did not arrive until 7:30pm. 1hour and 15mins for delivery, and when the pizza arrived it was squished on one side. Definitely not ordering from this location again.

My preferred chain of fast food in Toronto Price is Right the ingredients are good the staff is well-trained doesn't really feel like a chain it feels like a small pizza place you and your friends in high school go to for a slice... I like it better than the other similar options. Their tomato sauce is fantastic they should bottle that and sell it.

Ordered the Super Funghi vegan pizza, with plant-based crumble and double spinach. Got what I asked for, on time, and with a smile. No complains, no issues, wonderful experience.

Very cheap on their cheese. You tell me if my pizza looks appetizing. 1st time here. I ordered a medium regular swiss cheese with Tiny cup pepperoni. There were several slices with empty cheese spots (swiss maybe doesn't melt the same - even then, no excuse to do nothing about it) the Cardboard Pizzaiolo is seen in photo. I called and all they just said "ma'am that's our regular cheese" and don't care. Tip: buy somewhere else if you want a pizza that actually has cheese on the whole thing. Pizza hut never has this happen, Pizza Nova seems fine too. Another Pizzaiolio location was good too. Going further to get good pizza. Worst location. In addition, I also had to wait 30-45 minutes for this pizza (sitting there) that was supposed to take 15-20 minutes. Tip: You'll need to order double cheese to get cheese on the whole pizza, which is ridiculous 🍕

Pizza was delicious but Franks hot sauce was extreamly salty. I wont order this sauce again

March 22, 2024

Been seeing a decline in quality as of late. Last order lack of cheese and heavy toppings scattered mostly in the center so picking up a slice made it messy and would fall off. Call the restaurant and buddy was arrogant claiming he made the pizza and no issue . Qualify of service and quality has gone down hill for a while. Sad really

The Service is Awful, waited for over 35 min. and when i got home the pizza is watery and looks awful

DEFINITELY VISIT THIS PIZZAOLO!!! Because of the constant demand of pizzas from students, their $6 (already taxed) pizza is always made fresh, especially on the weekdays at around 11:30! I highly recommend trying this pizza called The Godfather, as it s basically a better Meat Lover s pizza as it s also puffed up for a fluffy crust and pizza!

Let me start by saying Pizzaiolo is definitely my favourite pizza joint to order from. BUT, they re just getting lighter and lighter with the toppings every time I order. Like a review below, they re getting real chincy on pepperoni and are chincy with bacon too. And when you order a meat pizza, you expect a meat pizza, not a cheese pizza with a bit of meat here and there.

The person working by themselves tonight was impressive to watch. I was greeted by my name and I watched as they served 4 customers at the same time while making pizzas and getting an order ready for a delivery driver. Whoever owns the store please give them an award for being amazing at their job and if it s your store you are an amazing owner!

My favorite chain Pizza place by far! Love their gourmet pizza toppings on ready to go slices. Like the Artichoke hearts and grilled zucchini! Any of the slices I tend to get on the go, tend to be great! If youre gonna go for a quick slice from a pizza chain, this is the one to beat! Vegetarian options: Lots of yummy veggie slice options. I get them, and Im not even a vegetarian!

Hey, Pizzaiolo @ Mount Pleasant and Eglinton, I understand you have a sign that pets are not allowed in your store but: 1. you could, at least, have a tir point outside so people can tie up their dogs 2. You should educate your servers to be less condescending (apecifically the youg blonde girl who has no clue how to talk to people)

My friend put me onto the Bianca pizza here and omg I have to eat it at least twice a week lol my new food obsession, they make it perfect every time!

December 22, 2021

We used to buy a pizza at this location at least once a week. The last 3 or 4 times we ve ordered there s always been a problem, either the pizza isn t the correct one, or we re waiting 10 minutes extra after the time they tell us to pick it up. Thought I d give it a chance since it s a Wednesday and couldn t be busy enough for something to go wrong. The man told me to come in 15 minutes and when I arrived they hadn t even started the pizza. He told me he said 20, but I still had to wait a half hour... Not even a sorry, just blamed it on me. Got home and the pizza isn t even cooked. I had to put it in my oven. Also the driver was cutting and touching a pizza with dirty hands which I found disgusting. Just seeing that, I won t be coming back.

Did they decrease the size of their pizza? We got a medium size that came out to almost $20. Which amounted to 4 tiny pieces each. It is by far the biggest rip off I have ever had ordering pizza. Two single slice pizzas are significantly bigger. What a complete joke. We will never order from their agin

Discriminatory and illegal practices in place, along with unhinged staff. Pizzaiolo used to be my pizza of choice but will never eat here, or another location again.

We are here, ordered a plain cheese xl pie. The pizza maker has no gloves on and is indiscriminately touching the ingredients and the pizzas coming out of the oven, mask really low, and though I love pizzaiolo s pizzas generally, today is going to be a leap of faith the we will be taking to feed ourselves. Just had the pizza, it was delicious! Just the hygiene part, would have helped a great deal! Changing my rating from 1 to 4 stars because the pizza was just that tasty.

Pizza was good, however, bad service! Also, tried to over charge me thinking I wouldnt notice. I ordered for pick-up and when I got there, there was no communication from the man serving me. He just brought my pizza to the cash, flashed the receipt to me (did not give it to me) and punched in the total on Interac. I asked to see the total on the receipt again and found he overcharged me one dollar on the Interac machine. When I pointed it out to him, there was no surprise expression or no apology for the mistake, which tells me he meant to do this. Its only one dollar but how many ppl do they do this to? Overall, very sketchy vibe and poor customer service. Wont be returning.

This is an eat in place. The pizza was average at best despite their claim of being gourmet. We ordered the pizza and it arrived soggy and it was tasteless. Whats more outrageous they charged $4 for a 200 ml bottle water.Even high end places dont charge that much for water. Simply outrageous. Have the tap water for free option available to your customers. Water should be free for everyone. $4 for a tiny bottle of what is essentially bottled tap water is unjust! So sorry I went in there.
