Fantastic pizza. The owner is friendly and willing to do what you need to make adjustments. He only uses a very healthy, clean flour and the resulting crust is amazing. read more

Best pizza I've had in the GTA. Top quality fresh ingredients, excellent dough and top notch tomato sauce. Mike, the owner, is awesome! Highly recommend making the trip! Andrew read more

I hadn't been back in a while. I'm sorry that I haven't. The pizza here is as good as it gets in Toronto. The owner delivered our pizza to our car and was as friendly as the first time I crossed paths with him. During covid, payment is done through e-transfer. He told us to get home safe and then send the cash transfer. He is a class act. I promise to come back soon! read more

The guy super rude ! Just askes how long would take to get my pizza ready and he replied 40 minutes! I just said wow ! 40 minutes! Guess what he said : we are not McDonald's! And completely ignoring me and started talking to another costumer !!! Yes mr italian . I know you are not McDonald's but i didn't come for fine dining ! I dont care what your pizza tastes , thanks god there are 1000s of nice pizza places in this city RUDE ! read more

Pizza here is great. Tiny bit pricey. Five bucks for a slice but it doesn't fill you. But it tastes so good you can eat two easy three is more like it. I don't know how they do it. Nice light dough. Owner is super cool. Can't wait to try a full pizza fresh out of the oven. Would definitely recommend and go back. read more

I had my first pizza from Napolitan today. I walked in and ordered a pepperoni and anchovy 16" pizza. Based on the price schedule it would be 20 bucks for a 16" and 1 dollar for each topping. So it should have been 22 bucks but they have an opening week special for a 16" with free toppings for 20. I was told it was going to be about 25 minutes so what do I do? I go back to my car and attempt to check into the business. To my surprise there was no listing for the business so here I am phone on hotspot so I can connect to the internet and make a business entry. I love making new business entries. Anyway so I'm connected to the internet and filling it out and I get an email that somebody needed help in BC so I'm on the network fixing a problem... done. Next I get a call from my president asking for help. I end up helping him and by the time I'm done all that the pizza is ready. I drive home to go have dinner and I open the box and here we go. The pizza is very different from any chain pizza because it's not made like any of those. I'll cut to the chase. This pizza tastes like home made pizza and when I say home made I mean like my mother in law makes who is from Calabria. This pizza has a great amount of cheese on it. The cheese was cooked so it wasn't stringy at all. It's bubbled on so to speak. The crust is different too. It's really chewy but the bottom is not crunchy. In my opinion it seemed to be a little overcooked in a sense that the crust wasn't too thin and like I said it was chewy. They had a brick oven which literally isn't one of those ovens in the backyard made of bricks. Their flyer says it's a Moretti Brick Oven from Italy. That's unique. Also it says: "Family recipe using the best ingredients Fresh vegatables hand cut daily Fresh dough made daily Fresh sauce using Italian tomatoes from Campania" I'm going to give it 3 stars only because I feel my pizza seemed a bit overcooked. Besides that it was good. It wasn't salty which I'm actually used to and that is another thing I pretty much immediately noticed. Most chain pizza is saltier. Try to not forget I had pepperoni and anchovy as my toppings both of which are pretty salty on their own. It didn't seem that there was very much sauce but when I did get a taste of it, it tasted very good. I hate acidic sauce with a passion. Home made ingredients is always a big plus. I will give them another chance but it was a good start and the place seemed pretty busy while I was there. The location for this place is actually really good. It's right near Kipling station and near all the high rise condos nearby. TIP: they seem to be cash only at least for now. They are a new business so I'm guessing they are going to interac/credit card system soon maybe but for now (the first week) they seem to be running cash only. read more

Thin tomato base. Bland to say the least. Was hoping for that Napoli zing on the Vesuvio. Also, dude is a bit angry for someone who is in the service industry. Perhaps he should try something else. I'd go elsewhere if I need a quick bite. read more

Superb pizza. You can tell the owner really cares about the food.

I've been driving by this place for a few months now and finally got to check it out last week. Here's my review: First and foremost, don't go with the expectations of gourmet pizza like a certain spot in Mimico. Take it for what it is, which is good, fresh, homemade tasting pizza. We ordered the 14 inch Napolitan House Special (thin crust) but substituted green olives for green peppers. It was a good move because it added a nice natural saltiness. The pizza was exceptional! Very tasty crust with a little bit of chew, no grease whatsoever, ingredients were super fresh and the sauce tasted homemade - not like typical chain pizza Ragu sauce. What I really appreciated was how friendly and accommodating the owner was and how the pizza was ready in time. My only complaints would be that I wished the sauce was a bit more seasoned (but that's just my preference) and I couldn't really taste the bacon (wish there was more). However, with that being said, we still plan to go back. I think as time goes on and when he starts to see more business, he should think of offering gourmet toppings because with that crust, it would be killer! I'm going to rate it 4.5/5 because I couldn't really taste the bacon. Again, I always try to encourage support of local businesses. I really, really wish him luck and hope it stays open as the pizza really outstanding. Great location too! read more

Napolitan Brick Oven Pizza - House Special with green olives - so good! - Pizza Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Horrible pizza. Overpriced. Takes way too long and is bland. Better quality at pizza pizza and pizzaville. Not a joke at all. Cheap, chain pizza is better than this garbage. read more

Came here for a slice while in the area after hearing about the brick oven and fresh, quality ingredients. Place might need a stronger ventilation system as it's a bit smokey. I don't mind but that can't be too good for the owner working there all the time. Slice of pepperoni is 5 bucks cash which is more than the usual chain pizza place but definitely worth the money. Pizza tastes much better than the chains as you can really taste all the individual ingredients with the first bite which is a good sign of freshness. The sauce is bold and flavourful but not overpoweringly acidic. The cheese is perfectly melted over top and adds a nice layer of savoury to the sauce. The cheese also has a much "cleaner" mouthfeel reminiscent of fresh, squeaky cheesecurds from Montreal as opposed to processed crap you get everywhere else. The salty and savoury pepperonis just ooze their flavour packed oils over the top enhancing the taste of the other ingredients. My one gripe is with the crust which while being pretty damn good (you can actually feel how the finer ground flour makes the end product much more uniform and smooth in texture and mouthfeel) isn't on the same level as the other ingredients. It's a little harder than I'd like and not as chewy as I expected it to be (with Pizzeria Libretto as the baseline for best Neapolitan style pizza I've had). Not sure if the owner does the 3 day fermentation thing or not which might be why it's not as chewy and I don't blame him if he's not doing it because that's a lot of work for 1 man. I would be open be open to ordering specialty pizzas if the dough was comparable to Libretto's as the prices are a little on the high side but justifiably so. This review would be 4 stars but I find the pricing scheme of the menu to be somewhat nonsensical as all specialty pizzas cost the same regardless of topping. Ideally margherita should be a little cheaper than the one with all the expensive meats like prosciutto and the basil is expensive then having it slightly cheaper may increase sales and offset the cost of the basil. That only takes like 5% of a star off. The other 95% of a star comes off of the owner's replies to the negative or unfavourable reviews. Don't worry about the negative stuff. There's no need to reply with angry or defensive comments. No matter how good your product is there will always be someone who doesn't like it. At the end of the day, if you've got a pizza that can hold its own under the scrutiny of pizza connoisseurs from all over then the good ratings will always outweigh the bad. Most of the unfavourable reviews are just there to help your business improve. Replying positively always makes your business look better and more professional as well. Anyway to wrap it up, the pizza here is MUCH better than any chain/franchise pizza store out there but not the best pizza I've ever had. read more

We ordered the Napolitan special and it was excellent. Crust was very light and the pizza wasn't greasy. According to the owner (who was very nice), they use a different kind of flour that's why you can eat more and not feel heavy/bloated. Highly recommend this place. read more

Napolitan Brick Oven Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Im not usually comfortable straying away from the safe mainstream pizza like Pizza Pizza, Dominos, and Pizza Hut, etc. I decided to try Napolitan pizza that was down and I absolutely loved it. You can really taste how the ingredients are much higher quality foods. The cheese is on the sweet side which is amazing, and the pepperoni is mouth watering. The place is never busy, the owner is an extremely nice guy. Dont miss out; its a little pricey but so worth it. CASH ONLY. read more

The crust is very thin, it should be an option because I didn't order a thin crust pizza. Seems to be owner's idea to reduce cost. The pizza is also lacking sufficient tomato sauce to bring out that pizza flavour. By the way, they charge 2 dollars for a pop. Don't get ripped off. read more

Found it to be expensive considering u can get the same quality from the logos pizzeria for significantly less $$. I'd also recommend the pizza at artisano's next store. its a much better tasting and made pizza. There also no delivery, no where to sit, and if your lucky the guy might wipe the table. Just to be clear the pizza at longos is made in house, not frozen or pre-made. Though if it was, I'd still rather eat it then this. read more

Ordered a large Margarita pizza for Friday family night. Crust - Bang on... Sauce - tasted like strained tomatoes right out of the bottle. Had no flavour, lacked salt!! Cheese - not bad Toppings - had a total of 6 basil leaves... Overall - would I spend top dollar for strip mall pizza? - No way! Not returning. read more

Amazing pizza! Best takeout Pizza in Toronto! Great Ingredients, very fresh and yummy. Go with the house special. Bring cash, it's worth it. Maria (blonde blue eyed) read more

The crust is doughy and tasteless. The tomato sauce is bland and the toppings are underwhelming. Do yourself a favour and go to Pizza Libretto instead. So disappointing. read more

Finally reopened in new location in No frills plaza beside south side burger. Ordered a medium house special well done. Same fresh ingredients. Crust is great. Just the right amount of cheese. Great service ready in less than 15 min. Lots of parking. Have an espresso while you wait. Hands down best local pizza. read more

This was probably one of the worst pizza restaurants I've been to. THe owner seemed angry to take my order, and I witnessed poor hygiene. I'd much rather have gone...pretty much anywhere else! read more

After driving by this new pizza place for several weeks and being very interested to check it out as we are Italian, and love a good authentic pizza we finally came for lunch here today. We initially thought that we might take it to go but conversation with the owner was so comfortable that we decided to sit down and eat it. I can't say enough great things about how friendly the owner was and how great he was about explaining his ingredients, methods, and plans for the business. We ordered a large size pizza to share with bacon, pepperoni, and green peppers. The owner made it fresh in front of us while having conversation with us and explained to us about the special oven that they use. This oven is one of 5 in Canada directly imported from Italy, a brick oven that is different from your typical wood burning oven. Now many people who are used to pizza from a wood oven will be used to a very thin crust, this authentic Napolitan is a little bit denser, moist and slightly chewier which I prefer. The owner asks how well done you will like the crust as well, if you did prefer it to be thinner and drier. He explained how because his crust was made to not have the typical air bubbles inside it and how they make the dough a day in advance with a high quality flour you do not experience that annoying pizza bloat after. This is true!!! From most pizza places I experience extreme bloating and feeling heavily weighed down after... This pizza does not have that sensation, you do not feel weighed down and lethargic after. Sauce was perfect. Not too acidic, and not like it had a bunch of sugar dumped into it like most pizzas taste nowadays, the tomatoes used are imported from a volcanic region in Italy. The mozzarella was the highlight of the pizza, excellent quality which he let us sample while the pizza was being made. He also provided us with an excellent high quality italian olive oil to put on the pizza, imported from Italy. You could tell how passionate the owner was about his ingredients and where they come from. After the pizza we decided to follow up with an espresso which was also excellent. I can't say enough great things about our interaction, service and experience. Hands down the most authentic pizza to find in Etobicoke, with high quality ingredients. Even better than Dimmi's in downtown Yorkville where I experience severe bloating everytime because of how they make the crust. We will be returning in the future and I suggest that you give this place a try. read more

The owner was awesome! Never had a pizza with so much personality! The whole experience was exceptional, I chatted with the owner the whole time he prepared our pizza, the ingredients were premium and cooked to perfection. Not a surprise that they have such a high rating on Yelp. If in the Toronto area this place is small and not a lot of seating available but worth the drive! read more

Napolitan Brick Oven Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

this place is fantastic! Best in Etobicoke and maybe all of Toronto. Nice and thin, but keeps firm when you lift it (no limpness). Great ingredients. Best part, i never feel full or bloated after eating it. It's incredible! I've eaten A TONNE of pizza and have never felt that way. The owner says it's due to lack of preservatives in the dough. No matter what it is, it's absolutely delicious! read more

Very good pizza! At $5 for a slice, it's not cheap. Not as good a il paesano but sure beats a couple other local spots. Only blemish... No matter how many times you order JUST A SLICE, he always pesters u to get a drink, that's annoying. read more

This pizza is one of the best in the city! The owner takes pride when preparing it and only uses fresh dough and ingredients. I have to say I love it but I wish I could have it delivered! read more

Always, always, always consistent with a delicious pizza! This is by far our favourite pizza place in the city. The owner knows his stuff and is so nice! My husband and I always order our own pizza as I am always up for trying something new and he likes to keep it the same. My favourite is the Margherita and his is the House Special with green olives. I also have made my own and gone with the owners recommendation and never been steered in the wrong direction. Eat here, trust me! read more

Amazing service and amazingly fresh and delicious tasting pizza!! The crust is crusty but not too thick or heavy. The tomato sauce is not acidic or watery! The ingredients taste so fresh. read more

Excellent high quality pizza. Have been going here for a couple of years. Imported cheese and tomatoes make a hell of a difference. You don't taste sugar you can actually taste the tomatoes. Friendly owner who was very nice to my son. I am generally not a fan of Veggie pizza but the Margarita was phenomenal a perfectly balanced work of art. Worth the extra money check it out read more

Horrible service. The owner is RUDE and i witnessed improper hygiene. GO ELSEWHERE. This guy doesn't deserve your business and you certainly dont deserve their germs. YUCK. I walked out. read more

The food is mediocre at best and the decor is from another century. Very, VERY disappointing.

Had the folks over for dinner last night. Order a Large Special and Large Margarita. The house House Special was awesome, lots of well cut, fresh toppings, nice not thin, thin crust and the right amount Cheese. Margarita for the kids was a winner as well, but the Special is amazing. Owner/operator was super nice, and gave us some homemade hot sauce for dipping, which was excellent. read more

Pretty bland pizza but edible. I expected more. The staff were rude and made my experience unpleasant. I definitely won't be back.

Unreal pizza, premo ingredients and quality. Compatible to the best you'll find in Manhattan. This guy knows how to make a pizza. Real Italian Espresso too, favourite pizza place in Toronto hands down. read more

I came here for this first time after work today and have to say that this is probably the best pizza I've ever had. The crust/topping/freshness was off the chart. As well the service was amazing. You can really tell that the owner loves what he does (is good at it) and treats his customers like a million bucks. I ordered $45 takeout last night from a different restaurant in the area and was treated like a number that they could care less about. I spent $10 on pizza at Napolitan's Brick Oven Pizza and was treated by the owner like i was one of his best customers. I will definitely go back and strongly recommend to anyone that appreciates great pizza and service. read more

Ordered a 14" Primavera pizza. It was cold and meh! Have ordered by the slice before and enjoyed it. May be it was just an off day. May not order a full pizza again and may stick to slices. read more

Wonderful pizza and wonderful owner. He's extremely passionate about his pizza and the quality. Trust me when you try it, you can tell. The food tastes cleaner. The difference is in the oven and the owner's focus on clean quality ingredients. For example other places cut their ingredients in advance, he does it fresh and immediate. Treats you like his home and takes care of you. read more
