So I wanted to work my way through BlogTOs Best Pizza in Toronto list. 9 spots. This was my first stop and number 9 on the list. Ample street parking outside. Not an issue at all. Inside, if you have social anxiety, good luck. The seating area is dominated by a long picnic bench style table with benches and stools on either side. Asking a stranger to sit beside them is hard at times, but people are generally nice. I understand why it would be difficult though. You walk up and order food and drinks. (Nice touch was the pin pad didn't prompt me for a tip. A lot of counter style restaurants ask for tip for handing me the goods I'm paying for? Damn) You're given your number and drinks (Apperol, a fruity soda type of cocktail which was $9 and an overpay imo, and my pint of Henderson's for $8) to head back to the table. My wife and I ordered the Lamb Borghini and the classic, a Margherita pizza with a side salad. Food came out really quickly even though they were busy which was nice. My pizza was pretty disappointing. I felt like it was pretty sparsely topped (pic attached) and the toppings that were there were not that flavourful. The chilli oil they have available in squirt bottles on the side really helped. The pizza was also really floppy, which surprised me given the char on the crust and since I was expecting crispier for a wood fire pizza. I would give this pizza a 2/5. Margherita pizza was standard and good. 3/5. My friend had gotten the Sweet Heat which has hot salami and honey on it, which was really good. 4/5 Portions are really small. My buddy and his girlfriend got 3 pizzas and a full salad between the two of them. My wife and I were still hungry after eating our two. Ended up spending $53 for the two drinks, two pizzas, and the side salad. Good experience, not great, but you can't really fuck up pizza. read more

I know a lot of people love their frozen pizzas that can be reheated at home so I went to the Adelaide location which was neat when you order and they'll bring you the food afterwards accordingly to your number. They have a very nice and intimate space that doesn't feel like a fast-food establishment. They make it to order in the pizza stone oven and was definitely piping hot. Their pizzas are on the thin side with a side of chilli oil and dipping sauce for an extra cost. I wasn't really blown away by the pizza I feel like I would've enjoyed a blaze pizza or PICO instead more. read more

Ordered on foodora and had it delivered. They offer some nice options for their pizzas. Lamb Bourghini if you like lots of lamb. Definitely a flavorful option. Supreme leader was also pretty nice, though the amount of toppings did not live up to the name. All the pizzas were kind of overly salty though. Not sure if it's too much salt, or the spices/garnish they they add. Might be better if you dine-in. read more

I give this restaurant four stars. I tried Generally Assembly Pizza for the first time last night and really enjoyed it. My wife and I ordered the Mila Margherita and Porky Pine pizzas and the Shredded Kale Salad through Ritual. The style of the Mila Margherita was traditional - extremely thin crust pizza with dollops of cheese and fresh pieces of basil - exactly how I like it. The tomato sauce, cheese and basil were all very good individually, but they were even better together, and the balance between their flavours was almost perfect. The crust tasted really good but it was very floppy - that is my only complaint. The combination of ingredients on the Porky Pine was phenomenal. Double smoked bacon, jalapeños, pineapple, onions, double aged mozzarella and ricotta cheese. It was salty, smokey, spicy and sweet. This pizza was absolutely delicious. Again, the only drawback was the crust being too floppy. The next time I order I will request the pizzas be well done. A crispier crust could potentially take these pizzas to the next level. The Shredded Kale Salad was very good. Kale is usually tough and difficult to chew but because it was finely shredded that wasn't the case. The thinly sliced parmesan and pecorino cheeses, currant, sun flower seeds and lemon dressing made for a good balance of flavours. The currant and sun flower seeds added a bit of texture but they were kind of sparse. More seeds or the addition of nuts would make the salad more flavourful and add some crunch to it. I was very satisfied with the quality and taste of the pizzas and salad at General Assembly Pizza and I will surely be back. Highly recommended. Four stars. read more

Felt very welcomed as soon as we entered. Great music & chill ambience. We had the Mushroom pizza & the Lover Boy pizza. Both absolutely delicious!

Really like the pizza here! Super thin crust, really flavourful pies. Nice! First time I was here, I got the Falco Sausage. The sauce was delicious, and the sausage had a kick to it. Tasted super fresh (obviously, it's made to order), the crust was slightly charred and definitely had some character to it! They even have brunch pizzas. I ordered the basic beach: Double Smoked Bacon, lots of cheese, egg, and a healthy dash of black pepper. Simple, delicious. Had it with a nice chilled glass of rose, what more can you ask for on a Sunday afternoon? The prosciutto is really good too. read more

If wood fired thin crust style pizza is your kind of slice, then look no further and come to general assembly. You won't be disappointed! They offer a variety of delicious selections to share, or eat for yourself (almost too hard to share). A friendly environment and decor, truly brings this restaurant together. FOOD We ordered the Don Diego (mozzarella, chorizo, cream, onion, jalapeño, cilantro, lime) and the Sweet Heat (tomato, mozzarella, hot salami, chili, honey, basil) Both were very delicious! We won't get into depth about toppings because thats preference for everyone, pineapple should be on pizza fyi everyone, but what really matters here is the foundation, the bed, what are we talking about ladies and gents? the pizza DOUGH! The pizza dough is an experience. Its light, has texture and some chew, character and flavour from some char on the crust. This is how you know a pizza is good. And general assembly doing it well. Forget the topping ima just eat that cooked pizza dough with some chilli oil/house made olive oil they provide at the table. Only reason we gave a 4/5 is they are a cashless restaurant so just keep that in mind. Let us know what you think! read more

Did a quick Google search of pizza places near Kensington and this was pretty close by. Indoor dining is self seating but you order at the counter and they bring it to your table. We got the sargeant Pepe and loving cup pizzas. The portions are quite small however it was enough to fill 2. We also got the Boylan orange soda and cream soda which went really well with the pizzas. Would recommend! read more

I've heard about General Assembly from a few people that's its one of the best pizza places in Toronto. I knew I had to try it eventually but never got around to it. Of course on one of the coldest days this winter, I decide to take the trek out through the snow and slush to General Assembly. It's a very simple restaurant. A small menu with a selection of pizzas and a few different salads. You order at the front counter, grab a metal number sign and seat yourself. Once your order is ready, they'll bring the food to your table. If you want to grab a drink, you can order at the same front counter and they'll pour it for you right away. Note: They have Moscow mules on tap! There are also counters along the side where you can find your cutlery, napkins, chilli oil and olive oil. This place is very much a casual self serve so you get everything yourself and there's communal seating as well. The food itself was pretty good. Their pizza crust was my favourite part. Charred, smoky and chewy. I could eat that plain just with some oil and garlic. One pizza is the perfect portion for one person. Since the crust is pretty thin, and the toppings are fairly light, it's a nice dinner that won't make you feel gross after eating the standard cheesy thick crust pizza. The only reason why I deducted one star is because their vegetarian pizza options are pretty limited. From what I saw, there was the typical margherita, a mushroom one, and a vegan one. I wish I tried the vegan one instead, the margherita was a little too low on toppings for me. Still a really great pizza joint though, would recommend! read more

My favourite pizza place! I rate it 4.5 stars instead of 5 because it's pricey for a small pie but the high quality ingredients makes it worth it. I've tried a couple of their pizzas and my favourite is sweet heat. It has hot honey, spicy salami and basil and it's absolutely delicious. I could eat two of them. read more

Honestly I have nothing bad to say about this trendy fast casual pizzeria. Service , awesome. Selection, great. Crust, cooked to perfection. Ingredients, fresh. Atmosphere , bright! I came here Tuesday night wiu a group of 4.... busy but not packed, you could hear your conversation with your friends while eating delicious fresh made pizza. Highlight : the black cherry soda and woman in the front making the dough! I will come back, goal is to try every pizza on the menu!!!!! read more

Visited On: September 11, 2019 Meal: Dinner Dining Style: Take-out Would I Return: Probably Not Ordered: -Sweet Heat ($13.00) Thoughts: The Sweet Heat pizza consisted of tomato, mozzarella, hot salami, chili, honey and basil. I really enjoyed the chili and honey combination. However, I felt the size was small and the taste was just average. I've had other pizzas that were cheaper, had more toppings and tasted much better. Unfortunately, nothing stood out for me to want to return. read more

LUNCH This place has great pizza! Ordered the Don Diego and it was pretty tasty! Thin crust with fresh ingredients you can never go wrong.. The ambience is also quite unique with a community style long table in the middle and a long line of separated spots along the windows. As soon as you walk in you will see the person making the fresh crusts from scratch behind a window sorta like how Ding tai Fung makes dumplings haha. (Im such a fob) but thats what it reminded me of. Overall this place is pretty dope. Expect more of my business soon! read more

Swanky self serve. Some crazy combos for pizza toppings that were unexpectedly delicious. Great soundtrack playing in the background

This is my second time having General Assembly pizza and I still think it's just okay. Feel I'm just not a fan of thin crust style pizza, but if you are this place might be for you. I had the Lamb Borhini pizza (Tomato, aged mozzarella, house lamb sausage, onion, za'atar, labneh, mint, parsley) felt this was a little overwhelming in taste and probably should have gotten something a bit lighter. I had take out this time around (take out counter through a different entrance), though I do really enjoy GA's actual restaurant decor and atmosphere that I've experienced during an earlier visit. The decor and layout is really modern & casual, it would make for a chill date night spot. Overall, feel I prefer more of the fast wood fired pizza from ZA Pizza Bistro a little further down the street or even Blaze around the other corner for taste. But ultimately taste over fancy atmosphere matters more to me, unsure I'll go back for another visit. read more

With the help of Ritual app, I learned the tastes of General Assembly. This place perked my interest ages when I saw the words of "Roberta's", "Pizza", and "Toronto" crawl into my feed. For those who don't know... Roberta's pizza reached cult hood status in the USA. They have one of their chefs help consult on the menu for General Assembly... I know it's not them actually making the pizza. Even having their name attached to General Assembly, it's gotta mean it's up to their quality to (some) degree. This is what I would call a hip place that serves food quickly... from ordering via Ritual, I got the message ping not even 10 minutes later that it was ready for pick up. Fast? oh yes. The space is open and bright with a clean aesthetic. It looks a little bit like a food hall with it's long shared tables. The take out area is separate and behind the pizza ovens (which is where I had my view). I wish I could say more about the service but it was proficient... that's all. A 'hi' would be nice. The style of pizza is what I would call Neo-Neapolitan... Yah thats wordy I know. Crust is similar to Neapolitan but the subtle difference is a touch sweeter dough and less 'soggy' in the middle. Traditional Neapolitan has the middle sometimes really soft. The characteristic thin crust and charring is in full effect and i love the leopard spotting. I know most people don't like it .. they think it's wrong but it's actually part of the style. I recommend pizza hut pan pizza style if you dont like the charring. Here's a great thing... even an hour later after we got the pizza, the pizza still tasted great with a light warm up in an oven. I would say the pizza sizes are not tooo big but it should be enough for a moderately hungry person. I know some people could crush more but 1 works for me. Green Pie with additional prosciutto (cause I cant resist the meat) - This intrigued me cause it had kale... Kale?? All the ingredients were mozzarella, gorgonzola, kale, lemon zest, black pepper... with the addition of my prosciutto. One thing I loved so much was the lemon zest. It added such a nice clean citrus notes that cut through all the cheese and prosciutto. I would love this in the summer... and winter. I felt the prosciutto a tad expensive ... i mean it was $4 for 4 slices. Either way... it tasted quite good. I'm used to a more flavourful crust (longer fermenting?) but this was still good. Nice handling of the pizza to get the good leopard spots. 4/5 Don Diego - Another solid pizza with its mozzarella, chorizo, red onion, jalapeño, drop pepper, and cilantro. I dont get soap mouth with cilantro so I liked it in there. I felt there was a decent amount of chorizo with the medium-mild heat from the jalapeno and drop pepper. Its a decent option if you're looking for something that isnt green. 4/5 Overall, my first impressions were positive and looking forward to trying out their salads with another type of pie. Perhaps next time I'll go and eat there instead BUT if I'm needing run about and need good food fast ... this would be a good option. read more

We stopped in at General Assembly because it was across the street from our hotel, but we are glad we gave it a try. The decor is hip and the menu plays to foodies and people who eat clean. They offer a variety of pizzas that are the perfect size for one or enough for two if you each order salads. We split the mushroom pizza and I had the kale salad while my fiancé had the arugula apple salad. We enjoyed all of it. General Assembly also had a wide selection of beers, sodas and wines. read more

Found this place as I was walking passed and then a quick search it was also on Ritual where it is currently "Eats Week" where a few of their pizza is cheaper than norm. I decided to try the sweet heat, Brooklyn style pepperoni (super large), mozzarella, tomato, honey, chilli and basil (in this case it looks like they forgot). Three starts because the pizza was quite soggy--it wasn't bad, but wow was it soggy (or greasy). The crust was like a very fresh naan but with a sweet note to it. The toppings were delicious! Worked so well together but would have loved the basil... Ambiance was much like cafeteria style, long tables, loud and bright. I did like the under table colour of turquoise paired with yellow chairs--very trendy. Condiments were: Chilli oil, chilli flakes, the usual. Since I had ordered from Ritual there is an entrance on the west side (with takeout counter) and the kitchen with giant ovens is behind this counter separating it from the dining/cafeteria area. If you are dining in you would go up to the counter on the east side entrance and order there, they would have you a number which you leave at your seat and they will bring it out. There is also one gentleman in a white glasses room making pizza dough--it is definitely a "feature room" but poor dough maker has to be by himself while strangers looked on... read more

I liked it! I'd come back. I tried the sausage pizza and the mushroom pizza. Both were good. The mushroom was tastier. The crust was delicious! Lots of seating available but there's definitely a lunch time rush. If you're making plans, keep that in mind. I liked the fact that it's a quick serve set up. You pay for your meal, grab your number, and the food is brought to your table. The only thing lacking is dessert. They do have plenty of drinks to choose from though. read more

The pizza here was very good. Flavour was solid and the environment was nice. Relaxed and no one rushes you to leave. The pizza was a bit smaller than I had hoped for my $12 Sweet heat selection.

This is a fancier pizza than your usual Pizza Pizza place, and you can say it's more 'Italian' than Pizza Hut. Other than that it's pretty typical pizza at a decent price. I liked the mushroom and blue cheese one, since I don't see that topping combo too often. Service was DIY and interior was very chic, industrial minimalism with some flashes of bright runny yellow. It ticks all the 'trendy-downtown-good vibes only' boxes. Makes a great place for friends or coworkers to meet. Or even a casual date. Just order at the counter and get your own napkins/water. read more

I have heard a lot about General Assembly pizza and finally decided to try it today. Last night i looked at pics of all the options and found the Falco Sausage to be most visually appealing so that's what i ordered. The Falco has "Tomatoes, grana, sausage, red onions, bread crumbs, garlic, black pepper, chili flakes & basil. 10 in." When it arrived i thought "hmm this box looks small" but it was a decent portion and it looked just like it did in the pics i saw online. Actually it was quite good! You can definitely tell it is high quality ingredients and i like the texture. Was it better than my favourites Via Mercant, 8Mile, and Double D's? Maybe not but definitely up there. They have lots of interesting options so i will try them again for sure. BTW, funny thing...they really cut the slices..i have never had pizza slices come apart so easily. read more

Hands down, one of the best pizzas I've ever eaten. It's probably a good thing that it's located where it is and nowhere near me or I'd put on a lot of weight. The place is so clean and bright, with very attentive staff. We literally walked in, placed our order and within minutes we had pizza. We also inhaled it so that first stop of our food crawl lasted no more than 20-25 mins. I think we spent more time talking about how good it was than we did actually eating the pizzas. Sweet Heat - Probably the best pizza I've ever had. The thin crust was baked to perfection while the toppings just complimented each other very well. I normally put something extra on my pizza like hot sauce or chilli flakes but this didn't need anything extra. If you want something extra to go with your pizza, get another pizza! 5/5. Don Diego - I say this in every review that involved cilantro and that I dislike that stuff quite a lot. This time however, was probably the first time I actually didn't mind it and it was pretty fresh. Admittedly, I still picked off a big piece but I was quite proud that I didn't gag from the smell of it. With or without the evil weed, this pizza was also very good. 5/5. read more

It took over 40 minutes for two thin crust personal pizzas to arrive on a Wednesday afternoon. Had the restaurant been packed I would understand but there were total of 3-4 tables. We ordered the Mila Margherita and Falco Sausage. The pizzas were thin and crispy with "blackened" crust. Chic decor, burnt crust and lots of cell phone usage by the kitchen staff. Expect 40+ min wait for average at best pizza. Will not be coming back. read more

Came here on a Sunday night and it was a lot busier than I expected. Very nice, modern place to eat as there are many group and communal tables. They have a decent pizza selection so you have many options to choose from. We ordered the Loving Cup (pepperoni) pizza and the Falco sausage pizza. They were pretty good (a little bit too oily), however, I have definitely had better gourmet pizzas. My only complaint is that the food took way to long to come to our table (around 35-40 mins). read more

Fire oven pizzas really does taste better than pizza cooked in regular ovens. The bread was nice and crispy. The only draw back is that there is a thin layer of burnt crust that I had to get rid of the whole circumference. Otherwise I got the sausage pizza and had an enjoyable lunch. read more

I'd walked by General Assembly Pizza quite a few times and I was certainly intrigued, so I jumped at the chance when the opportunity to sample their wares arose. We arrived around 4:30 on a sunny Sunday and the place was pretty much empty. We were waiting for a third person, so we started out with a couple of drinks. I went to the counter to order and pay, and I was certainly surprised that I wasn't given an option to leave a tip. Anyway, we finally did order a trio of pizzas a short time later and they were all quite good: Sweet Heat ("tomato, mozzarella, hot salami, chili, honey, basil"): The first thing I thought after taking a bite was, "wow, they were not kidding about the sweet part." This is indeed a very sweet 'za but it works. The combination of the other savory ingredients tempers the sweetness and I really found myself enjoying this pie as I was eating it. Falco Sausage ("tomato, parmesan, sausage, red onion, bread crumb, garlic, black pepper, chili flake, basil"): This might've been my favorite pizza out of the three. Everything here worked so well together and the generously appointed toppings were all just about perfect. Garden Smash ("tomato, squash eggplant mash, red onion, spring onion, garlic, sesame, basil"): The only other vegan pizza I've ever sampled was the rather mediocre one at Planta, so I had my doubts. But this was actually a pretty darn tasty concoction (though I don't really know if I would call it a pizza). Again, the various toppings all worked really well together and the squash eggplant mash actually made for a pretty perfect base. I want to note also that the pizzas themselves were cooked perfectly, with the crust forming an addictive char that enhanced each pie. Also, the available chili oil was super hot and super tasty. All in all, a great experience. (And it's all surprisingly affordable, too!) read more

Excellent thin crust pizzas with fresh, delicious ingredients (Neapolitan with a twist) and reasonable quality wine (we were even given a taste) with a modern atmosphere. Order at the till, casual hip crowd, not too expensive. This is the second time we ate here, both experiences were great.

On a rainy night when the bar hopping is done, no better place to get your carb fix than grabbing some carbs. We popped into GA Pizza and this self serve, yet cool vibe venue did not disappoint. You approach the counter, place your food and drink order and grab a number before finding your own seat. Negroni's on tap while may sound suspect, were actually well balanced and a pleasure to drink. The only headache is having to get up again, order, pay and continue the libation. Freshly sliced prosciutto was a treat while we waited for our pies. Service was quick and the food awesome! Look out Libretto and Margherita, you have a contender. read more

Went for a post theatre dinner fix - heard the pizza was pretty great. Overall good experience. Quiet before the supper rush hit - food came out pretty fast, though we watched it being made fresh in the open kitchen. We had some chips and dip, a salad and a pizza to share - more than enough food for two people. Happy hour drinks at $5 were a great price to boot. Thin crust pizza that's good for one, and enough to share if you add another item. All in all, not the best pizza in Toronto but decent prices for the area, great service and overall tasty food. read more
