This is Sicilian/Grandma/Detroit/Square style pizza (baked in a shallow casserole pan with ~1" high risen dough), primarily pan-Mediterranean, with minor yet notable Middle/Near East & North African influences. Essentially, it is Ancient Roman interpretation of Sicilian style pizza, due to the diversity of flavours offered. You can "Mix and Match" a large ($35, 14x14") with up to 3 "styles,", and small ($22, 9x9") with 2 "styles." The "styles" are the pizza profiles they offer, as noted below. You can also get 1 size with 1 style (L: $33-$36 & S: $17-$21). I would highly reccomend getting a large with 3 styles because the dough is an inch or so high, thusly very filling, and the 3 variations/styles of toppings all make a pie meant for sharing. It was arguably a 3-in-1 pizza. Also would reccomend trying the dips... Ordered a large with 3 styles: "Quattro Formaggi," "The Fig," & "Crispy and Creme." "The Fig" was the feature pie of the month and reminded me of what a rich (Ancient) Roman could have tried had this type of pizza been around then. They had the square-ish pie in 3 rows of styles. The dough here when I tried it, was not overly "white" in flavour, nor "sweet." It was highly "airy", and highly risen (~1" high). It had a very soft, yet firm, texture; almost like a firm sponge. Got it "regular-done." The underside was a nice darker golden colour. "Quattro Formaggi" ["red sauce, mozzarella, provolone, swiss, & okanagan goat cheese"] was savoury and well-marbled cheese combination with goat cheese crumble. Good overall. Great to balance out the other diverse styles; "The Fig" ["sumac walnut fig preserve, italian prosciutto, fresh figs, goat cheese, sumac oil arugula, balsamic & pomegranate reduction"] was out-of-this-world good. Ancient Rome vibes here, with the sweet, savoury, herbal flavours and diverse texture of the arugula, sauces, fresh pieces of figs & prosciutto & goat cheese... "Crispy and Creme" ["Red sauce, housemade kofta meatballs, mozzarella, provolone, persian fried onions, pickled red chilies, 7-spice creme dollops"] is another flavour punch: 2 cheeses, with kofta meatballs, (kofta is arabic for meatballs, roughly), sweet fried onions, pickled chilies, and a 7-spice creme (of some, respectable sort) on top. More savoury overall than "The Fig." Ordered 2 dips as well ("Harissa Honey Butter" dip and "Garlic Confit & Fresh Oregano" dip). Would reccomended both. Their dips actually accomodate the pizza's flavours and do not overpower. The "Harissa Honey Butter Dip" is (hot/pungent) red peppers (not sure if its multiple peppers, and other spices, or not) and honey. The "Garlic Confit & Fresh Oregano" dip was a superb garlic creamy dip. For about $35.00 (before tax, gratuity, dips), this is great value. In one pie, you get superbly done dough (savoury in its own right and not "bready"), a diverse taste of gourmet Ancient-Roman-style flavour profiles and textures (sweet, savoury, herbal, creamy, pungentness/hot, etc.), with the added addition of up to 3 styles in 1 pie! Is it better than Descendant Pizza? Respectfully, I'd say significantly so. Note1: I did try the following 5 appetizers ($9-$10 each); I found them generally "decent" overall and I would reccomend trying their large pizza with 3 styles firstly (Hummus & Muhamarra served with "sourdough za'atar focaccia sticks"): Harissa Honey Butter Cauliflower (sweet, smokey, spicy. served with 7-spice creme dip), Muhammara (roasted tomatoes, onions, peppers, pomegranate molasses, walnuts), Hummus Rosso, Hummus Verde & Hummus Bianco. Note2: I did try each of their 3 desserts and also found them "decent-good" overall too, $9 each (Tiramisu Kunafa was fav amongst our group): Traditional Kunafa (akawie cheese, mozzarella, rose & orange blossom water syrup, pistachio). Tiramisu Kunafa (kunafa with an italian twist - akawi cheese, mozzarella, marscapone, espresso syrup, organic cocoa dusting). Walnut Kunafa (cinnamon spiced walnuts, honey syrup). Note3: Did not try any sandwiches. Below is most of their pie profiles, and the diversity of toppings are worthy of dining out for, in my opinion: The Shawarma: Housemade parsley pesto, slow-roasted lamb, pickled shallots, mozzarella, provolone, bomba, cherry tomato, arugula, tahini drizzle. Sumac "Musakhan": Sumac carmelized onions, 7-spice chicken confit, saffron and lemon whipped ricotta dollops, fresh oregano. Meat Habibi: Ezzo's pepperoni, mediterranean sausage, kofta meatballs, mushrooms, pickled chilies, red sauce and cheese blend. drizzled with garlic confit & oregano sauce. [Vegetarian] Greens "Fatayer": Garlic confit, broccoli rabe, sumac, pomegranate molasses, shallots, and lemon & saffron whipped ricotta. Upside Down "Maqluba": Garlic confit, roasted mediterranean cauliflower & eggplant, cherry tomatoes, mozzarella, provolone, 7-spice labneh creme. Potato Batata: Slow-cooked mushroom puree, sliced garlic potato, sauteed sherry mushroom, ontario honey drizzle. read more

Ossington was really popping this year and got super popular over the summer. So, I had to try out this pizza spot near Bloor West and Ossington. Levant serves a Sicilian pizza and they also have different italian sandwishes, kunafa and hummus as well. We got their Mix and Match pie which comes with two large slices, and we had to try their most popular Muffuletta sandwich. We got their Meat Habibi Pizza and their Shawarma Pizza, and both pizza were very unique. We absolutely adored their confit garlic and oregano dip that was paired with the pizza. The Muffuletta Sandwich was definitely a must try, and we love their genoa salami, ham and mortadella meat stack. It was for sure a great and filling sandwich. One comment about their pizza and sandwich though: both were a little bit oily and definitely left a lot of grease on our hands after we ate. However, overall, we would definitely still come and return to try their other pizzas and sandwiches. In the summer, they also have a cute little patio as well, which is a plus. read more

Loved the food! The hummus with breadsticks, yumm and so fresh my friends got the pepperoni, cheese, meat lover, I got the garlic zataar and the eggplant one. We loved the bread very fresh and fluffy. The food tastes better than it looks. We came in a bit late around 9:10 pm and wished they had informed us something like we take last order at 930 so order every thing, because I really wanted to try the kunafe but could not. Overall definitely worth visiting! read more

SOOOO GOOOOD! me and my friend got the Bianco Hummus which was incredible with the fresh bread on the side. Then we got a small pizza (which was perfectly sized for us!) one side was Hot Honey Pepperoni which was my favourite as well as the other side being Sumac Chicken which was sooooo good as well. The dough was fluffy and light and the garlic dipping sauce on the side was heaven. Also the atmosphere was so welcoming ! Highly recommend. I will for sure be coming back :) read more

We were going to go there for iftar. I made a reservation for 3 people. And my reservation cancelled one hour later. Please keep your website updated. read more

I tried their Muffuletta sandwich and the Shawarma pizza. They are both delicious and with a bit middle eastern flare. I love trying new cuisine and this restaurant is a jack pot if you are looking for fusion cuisine. Such a hidden gem. Even my two pups agree! The server was so thoughtful to give them enough of water and a little pepperoni treats! read more

The kunafah wasn't special in and was served a bit cold. For $9 for a small size it can at least be hot. The flavor was okay. Portions generally seem small at this place but Only tried the Kunafah read more

Wow! Long story short, you should go. It's not like your regular pizza place, it's a cool place. From their unique combinations on their pizza, to their dips and delightful Sammy's you will not be disappointed. YUMMMMY!!!!! read more

Really great atmosphere and great food! I was in for a small slice so I do not have any pictures but I'm excited to visit again!

Great Pizza. Love the varieties of pizza and sandwiches! Staff was friendly. Definitely recommend if you are in this area. Not your typical boring restaurant. They rock. read more

Went by on a Sunday at 6:15 (they are open until 10pm). There was a sign on the door that said "sold out". I asked if they were still open and the worker said, no, look at the sign. She said was packaging the last pizza. My friend and I wanted to meet for apps & drinks, so I guess they were sold out of that too? Disappointing. read more

Could eat here everyday given their variety of pizzas and sandwiches. The bianca and upside down pizzas are phenomenal. The eggplant parmigiana and sumac pulled chicken sandwiches are delicious. The arugula salad and trio dip mezze are good for appetizers/starters. Levant is wonderful! read more

Great New Place! The service was friendly and I got my food quick even though the place was full. I love middleeastern food as well as pizza but this was my first time getting them both at the same time. It was nice to have an original take on something I eat all the time. My favorite was the Crispy and Creme (Halal) but they have some basic options as well like pepperoni if you just love a classic. My partner is Vegan so it was a plus that they had a couple options for her. Come hungry cause those four slices are surprisingly filling. read more

This place is great! Atmosphere is cool and the staff is really friendly. Simply delicious, you have to go! read more

I've ordered takeout/delivery twice from here and have enjoyed the pizza thoroughly. It's different from your typical Sicilian pizza with the fusion of middle eastern flavours. I'm a huge fan of the harissa honey butter, make sure you add that on top of your pizza. I've had their pepperoni and Quattro fromaggio. I can't wait to try some of their other pizzas! read more

This is not your local pizza joint - it is a restaurant to check out no matter where you live. We had the cauliflower appetizer and Sumac pizza and enjoyed the unique flavours and textures of both. The pizza crust is more like focaccia and the flavours from the saffron and onions were like nothing I have ever tasted before - delicious! The large pizza was way too filling for two people and we took home enough leftovers for another meal. They recently built a street-side eating space so there are a handful of tables to eat there, both outside and inside. Their takeout business also seemed to be booming when we were there read more

Always enjoy the food (though I don't really understand the Italian fusion thing and would prefer a straight Palestinian restaurant, but that's a story for another day) and always thrilled to support a business that openly supports Palestinian liberation. That said, on my first in-person visit I found that the service left something to be desired. The owner seemed very preoccupied with his phone and with a business meeting he was taking at another table. The service felt hurried and very matter-of-fact; not particularly warm. After we ate we were left in the lurch for a while; the owner eventually came around and pushed the pay terminal onto us without asking if we wanted anything else. Unfortunate because we had both come really excited to try the desserts. Perhaps they were sold out at the time, but otherwise what gives? All of this to say, I still love this place and just wanted to offer a friendly critique. read more

The food is incredibly creative and the product does not disappoint. They are very nice there too which is always a plus.

This place is fantastic! So many different options and having a fiancé who is vegan, it's great to go to a spot where we both get equally delicious food. You can easily share a small with two people but get one each because you'll want leftovers! The fact you can combine two different types of slices in a small as well allows you to get some variety. Also - get the burnt tomato dipping sauce. You will not be disappointed. read more

They use a lot of pickled toppings so the pizza can have too much tang but still really good, especially the halal pepperoni. The different hummuses are really good too. I actually like the pricing. Can't say that for most places these days. Ordered dinner for 1 off of uber. You get 2 slices of your choice and an app. Great deal and super filling. This place will become one of my regs. read more

such a great food, fresh focaccia the shawarma pizza amazing super friendly service thank you read more

Levant is a really cool take on pizza. The flavours are great and very creative. The dough is also perfect . The restaurant seating area is small but very pretty. They also have yummy cocktails! read more

I think I have tried every pizza here but literally cannot pick a favourite! I love that they allow mix and match so I don't have to decide. I have also recently tried the Rosso hummus and the muffuletta sandwich. The hummus impressed even my friend who did not want it and typically doesn't like hummus! The muffuletta was unreal - so meaty and the perfect amount of spice & flavour. Highly recommend trying out the entire menu! read more

Tried a bunch of the pizzas and they are so tasty. Such unique flavours in the sauces. The cauliflower appetizer and pepperoni pizza are so so delicious! Will definitely be back for more! read more
