    a pizza in a box
    Duran B.

    OMG - we are such fanatics of FIREWOOD CAFE! Dude this place is so on point and consistent EVERY SINGLE TIME?!! I mean I love the ZA - and I like variety - but my true loyalty lies with all the talented folks at this family owned Vancouver lLegend. Stop messing around with pizza places that don't pay attention to the DETAILS!!!? I order what I want and get exactly what I ordered every single time. I'm not exaggerating dude. I'm dead serious. I TRAVEL THE WORLD AND ALL I THINK ABOUT IN HOTEL ROOMS IS ONE THING..... Where's my FIREWOOD PIZZA AT?!! Ok ok that enough outta this guy - our pizza is here and I'm starving Marvin lol ABSOLUTELY LOVED YOU GUYS Xo Dman

    Pizza was non greasy and crust was thin with lots of toppings. What can I ask for. It was delicious. So I tried the Thai chicken and the Chicago style pizza. When I got the Thai chicken onto my plate, I was a bit worried that it would be too spicy (I touched it and can't put it back in the box so I took the courage to try it). To my surprise, it was actually ok. Tasted fine and delicious. I also got a slice of Chicago. Not its not the Chicago flavor pizza (I can say this because I just recently came back from Chicago). Definitely different kind of pizza that you would get from Chicago. But nonetheless it was delicious meat pizza. It was a bit salty though. Overall, I like this place. The pizza are on the saltier side. But its not like I overdose on salt everyday. So this is fine.

    Recently tried out this pizza joint along my venture to Vancouver and this place has some fantastic ingredients and flavours you don't often see around. Some of the unique toppings and sauce in their menu includes pine nuts, zucchini, smoked Gouda, almonds, and Thai peanut sauce! Aside from their our selected pizza menu you can also created your own. For a large pizza gig can choose up to 6 toppings and they are generous with the toppings! In my order we made sure we loaded it up with meat with bbq chicken, ham and back bacon!

    Delicious Margarita Pizza

    This place is absolutely fantastic. The food is top quality homemade with love. The first time I had their delicious margarita pizza. My second time I had the pasta bolognese. Both outstanding! The portions are very generous but because it's high quality it's not heavy and I ate it all. In addition the service is impeccable. They are so warm and courteous truly caring that you are enjoying your meal. I am just passing through from New York City where the standard is so high because the competition is so unforgiving. If the Firewood cafe was in NYC it would be a gold mine giving the other establishments a run for their money. This place is a gem as are the people who run it!

    Half chef's special, half Cozumel

    Pizza in my belly yum yum yum... I love me some good pizza. Which means I'm constantly on the hunt for good pizza spots. My boyfriend and I decided we wanted to order in pizza for the night, so after finding Firewood on Yelp and reading the positive reviews, we decided to call in. I'm not much of a crust eater unless it's stuffed or thin, and thin is the only way to go at Firewood. They only do half/half for large sizes, so it was a good thing we were feeling hungry, because we didn't hesitate when deciding on the large. The guy on the phone was very helpful and asked us clear, direct questions to make sure our order was correct. We ordered a large half Cozumel (pesto shrimp) and half Chef's Special, with a side of their housemade caesar dressing. They estimated about an hour for delivery, which was perfect because it gave us enough time to stop by the liquor store and pick up some wine. When the food got to the house, they sent us a text saying they were here. I love that businesses can do this now, by the way. Just makes your life a tad bit easier. It didn't take us long to dig in. We were able to throw the whole pie down because 1) we were starving and 2) it was just that good. I was more of a fan of the Cozumel because I'm a fan of pesto pizza, but the Chef's Special was also delicious. I'm a fan of this place. So much that I already know what I'll be getting next time I order from here.

    Mushrooms galore!

    Delicious non greasy thin crust pizza with speedy friendly service. We stopped in here on the way to Yuk Yuks for a quick bite. No liquor license but the pizza was delivered to the table so quickly we didnt have time to really notice! Just a few tables inside and obviously a very brisk take out business. This was one of my favourite pizza places this year.

    "the best things happen unexpectedly" that s the best quote that could describe my marvellous experience at this lovely restaurant/café : My friend and I were intially planning to stop by Passion8 café ( just next door) but when we passed by the Firewood Café we tried hard to resist the irresistible pizza smell but in vain...We ended up being inside the lovely pizza shop ready to order some food. The lady behind the counter was very welcoming and friendly as she brought the menu and explained to us what they had special and what was recommended and when we asked if she could make us a tuna pizza ( yes canned tuna as topping : it is a very popular pizza in north Africa and France) she apologized and she promsied that they will have it next time we come and we were so thrilled...Believe it or not the best part is yet to come as 2 minutes later the chef there told us that he has a tuna can he was gonna use for his own dinner and that he is happily willing to satisfy our request by putting it on top of our pizza...simply epic joy at that moment!!!Every single bite of the pizza was remarkable!!!Thanks again for all the staff that work in this convivial place and we will come back soooon for more tuna's pizza and calzone until it becomes part of the official menu :))

    First time ordering from them. W O W is an understatement! My new favourite. It was fresh, hand made, fire roasted and reminded me of Italy.

    I booked Nightingale for an early 5:30pm dinner since one of their signature dishes, Brick-Pressed…read moreChicken is a favorite for our family. Our picky 6yo son will eat some variant of this dish most of the time. The restaurant is gorgeous - brightly lit, classy, and arranged on two floors, each with a dedicated kitchen. The upstairs even has an open kitchen. Despite feeling very upscale, the restaurant is super welcoming to all, from families with kids, after-work crowds, folks on dates, and even well-dressed stockbrokers discussing their latest trades. The food was outstanding and had inspirations from Italian, Mexican and Japanese influences: 1. The kid's cheese pizza turned out really good - thin crust, Neapolitan style with slightly charred puffy crust from the wood oven. Our son ate most of it before the brick-chicken arrived! 2. The smaller dishes are meant to be shared - the Japanese Sweet Potatoes and Roasted Cauliflowers are good sides for a protein-rich entree. Wife ordered the lighter Baja Scallops and enjoyed them. 3. The star of the dinner was the Brick-Pressed half chicken. Crispy seared crust and super-moist meat underneath. Unlike many places they added a bit of spice from the chilis and even mixed in some beef tallow for additional richness. Our son enjoyed it too, and was not fazed by the slight heat from the chilis. A crispy skin always elevates a chicken! Highly recommend Nightingale for epic food, great service, and welcoming vibe. Reservations are available but make them early. The restaurant was packed even on a Wednesday evening!

    Two floor spacious dining experience - very clean , very well lit, comfortable vibes…read more Dropped by for Happy hour - there is quite a selection of treats you can choose from, however, note these are happy hour portions, if you are super hungry, this might not be for you and you'll need to order full size entrees. Service was very quick, friendly and engaging. I really liked the chicken nice coating and crisp to it. Pizza was underwhelming - tasted a bit burnt to be frank. rest of the dishes had nice flavor - however didn't have much of a wow factor - Good place to try out - maybe one day will be back to explore the menu -

    Woefully sub-average. It is best I can describe this place…read more Entered the place on a Monday afternoon whilst three East Indian men chillaxing in the dining area. They quickly jumped at my presence and returned to their stations as if they're caught slacking off. First idea was to order a deep dish but a few moments later upon entry I decided otherwise. I opted for 2 slices and a pop. Meatloaf and cheese. The sever didn't bother to warm them. They were dry and like old pizzas. Taste is okay/sub/average considering the price but very unlikely I will return.

    Ordered two pizzas from here on Uber Eats…read more My friend and I wanted to check out the local deep dish scene, and this seemed to be one of the few places that offered it, so we decided to give it a try. I didn't have very high expectations, but I was pleasantly surprised by the pizzas here. They offer a variety of veggie and meat pizzas that can be made with regular crust or deep dish style. We ordered a small deep dish margharita ($19.99) and a medium deep dish butter chicken ($23.99) pizza. Both weren't true deep dish pizzas, but the crust was nice and thick. I'd recommend the pizzas here to anyone who likes a breadier crust. My only minor complaint is that the pizzas didn't have enough sauce to complement the thick crust. The pizzas kept well for leftovers too. They tasted just as good the next day heated up in our toaster oven.
