Albany Pizza

It’s not great, I was disappointed. The wings are kind of gross. Slimy and not very flavourful, I ended up throwing them out. On my pizza the pepperoni was under the cheese, Now from what I know about Pizza, and I sure love pizza, the meat should be on top. 2 stars because there’s no such thing as bad pizza

I love this place! It is my go to pizza shop. My husband and I have been coming here for the past 3 years and can’t get enough! We’re pretty simple with our pizza, pepperoni or cheese. It has a resemblance to New York style pizza, thinner crust, delicious and a slightly oily. The owner does a great job!

I normally only eat pizza when 1) it’s free (work or party related) 2) i don’t want to be a picky food snob in a gathering and the majority wants pizza, 3) pizza hut buffet! (For the fat child inside of me and for nostalgia reasons — don’t judge)
But I think Albany might have changed my mind about this meager dough. Oh! it’s way more than just dough and pizza and tomato sauce… in fact, it doesn’t even have that much cheese or tomato sauce, it is loaded with all the other toppings! The toppings go all the way to the edge (so mind you, neat pizza eaters). The crust is thin and very crispy. We got the Quattro Stagioni pizza and it was divine! The pepporoni pizza is also one of the best pepporoni pizza I’ve had.
Excuse me as I go do some exercise so I could have more Albany Pizza.

I’ve stopped in here a few times, as its the only form of food in this strip mall attached the the No Frills, and I’ve realized that sometimes its better to throw down some money for a meal before going grocery shopping hungry to avoid buying a bunch of impulsive food you wouldn’t otherwise have bought.
So yeah, I’m usually here for a quick bite and have settled on a few different slices of pizza and a veal parmesan sandwich. The pizza slices are decent, and relatively cheap.
The veal sandwich is admittedly not great quality veal. Really thin cut and while it tasted fresh, really wasn’t all that impressive in the flavour department despite the standard sauce, plus additional cheese and hot peppers I had added.
Perhaps the secret is a full pie delivered for enjoyment, based on the other reviews. I’m just not sold on committing more to this place than a casual stop in.

My go to pizza delivery place! I love their thin crust pizza which is not overloaded with tomato sauce (which I personally prefer) and they are not stingy on toppings :) Pizza is always usually delivered fast & the drivers are always pleasant.

Got delivery from here. Had a regular pepperoni. Delivery was fast and pie arrived hot. I read soo many reviews and was soo excited for the crust, that I got a bit dissapointed as it wasn’t as crispy as I expected. Cheese does come to the border and it was a tasty meal for sure.

Am I missing something about this place?
I came here because my neighbor recommended it and to be honest, I can’t see what people are raving about. I ordered a deluxe slice and it was just okay. My server was very friendly though.
I think I’m gonna have to pay this place another visit.

I have a pretty serious crush on this mom and pop pizza shop.
Thin yet chewy, toppings to the very end of the pie and above-​cheese, crispy pepperoni. They have pasta, wings and salads, too, and for only $ 4 you can get one of the largest side caesar salads in all of TO. Hail Caesar.
I have only had delivery (35 minutes, debit at the door), so I really can’t speak to the ambiance, but if this joint is half as pretty as their pies are tasty, it’d be worth checking out in person.

Very grateful I live near this pizza place. My favourite pizza in the city.
I use this blanket statement because I eat a lot of pizza and can’t stop craving one from Albany.
I recommend ordering one of the Albany Pizza Specials instead of a slice because there are so many more topping options, interesting creations and flavours that need to be experienced. They may be a bit on the pricy side but are made with pride and are perfectly thin. Specifically, the Sicilian. I never would have thought of potato as a pizza topping and that it would taste so wonderful.
The calzones, sandwiches and pastas are also great but the pizza is what keeps me coming back.

I’ve been looking for some good, New York style pizza. You know, thin crust, no skimping on the cheese and greasy. A lot of the other places in Toronto, when I look up New York pizza on Unilocal,they don’t have the thin crust or at least as thin as I like it.
This place, which granted I have not gone to every pizza joint in Toronto, has so far gotten as close to that experience as possible. It’s not as greasy but it’s got this really nice thin crust (toppings go right to the edge) and full of cheese and toppings. It’s also good that I can put in an order and then go grocery shopping next door and in 10 – 15 minutes, my pizza is ready.
There’s also a walk in special (with time restrictions) for a pepperoni pizza.
I highly recommend Albany Pizza!

Just moved into the hood and looked this place up. Ordered the Albany veg pizza and it’s delicious. Totally recommend. Delivery was super speedy and the price is fine (esp since the pizza is awesome).

Though I don’t live in the area, I decided to check out Albany Pizza due to the great reviews on Unilocal.Finding it was tricky as it is not visible from the road; however, it is located right beside the No Frills and will be hard to miss once you enter the plaza.
The place is very no frills, but packs a great punch. The pizza is thin crust and as Patrick M. raved, «it is the best of the non-​chain pizzas in the immediate area.» I would have to agree. There are a lot of options as the list of gourmet toppings is quite extensive. It would be a great grab and go kind of place, or dine-​in if you have the time. The staff is very friendly and professional.

In the past I had just gotten a walk-​in pepperoni slice, which was good, and good enough that I’ve wanted to go back, and I finally did last night for New Year’s Eve.
We called way ahead for when we wanted it and they had it ready almost on the dot piping hot, and even on a busy night. As well, I didn’t realize how many fun pizza combinations they had on their menu. If you are vegetarian you will be pleasantly surprised as well, as they just don’t have one or two veggie pizzas for you to choose from. I have definitely become a fan of their Sicilian though. Because one, I love potato on pizza. Two, I love feta on pizza. Three, it has a bunch of red and green stuff to make it look nice and pretty.
I think this pizza is great. If you are looking for non-​neapolitan pizza in the city, it is a good bet. The crust isn’t super thick and is still nice and bready. It’s not all crunch, and has a good consistency. They also are not cheap on the toppings, and seem to actually care about the appearance of the food they are sending out. I’ll definitely be back sooner rather than later.

The pizza is great — 4 or 5 stars on average. Delivery is usually great — drivers usually arrive on time or early and know how to find me in the coach house.
So obviously I’m a loyal customer.
Then, tonight, I waited 90 minutes for a 45 minute delivery. I was *screamed at* by the dispatcher when I called to see what was up. Turns out the delivery dude didn’t notice that the delivery was for the coach house, didn’t bother to call me when no one answered the building’s front door, and decided to sit around for 20 minutes banging on my neighbors’ doors like they were delinquents. Said delivery dude then helped himself to a 20% tip. (Literally: he walked away with my change.) Points for chutzpah!
Never again, guys.
Sorry.
(Not sorry.)

Gorgonzola cheese, caramelized onions and bacon for your toppings
DO IT. ORDER IT RIGHT NOW. YOU WILL LOVE ME

A friend ordered from here for her birthday.
WE ATE
This pizza is GREAT. Love learning about new places in the city. It’s the type of pizza you can fold up. It’s greasy but not too greasy. I’m a sucker for pepperoni but they have veg options too. Thin crust with a bit of a crunch. Yum and yum!
OBLIGATORY CATCHY REMARK
If I lived in the west end, I’d be ordering from here.
Definitely an underdog in the Toronto pizza world.

A neighbor recommended this pizza place so I decided to try them out.
Got a custom 14″ pizza for $ 22. Definitely worth it and the guys who work there are so nice!
Toppings I chose:
Artichoke Pesto
Smoked Salmon
Red Onions
Capers
Best pizza I’ve ever had. The crust was both chewy and crunchy and the flavor was awesome! The toppings go almost to the edge!

Friends and I had two pizzas delivered. I was a little weary when my friend told us that the crust was really thin, as I’m not a huge fan of thin crust pizza, but he said to trust him.
Pizza came and it was delicious. It wasn’t thin crust that sometimes seems like you’re eating a slice of cardboard, it was nice crisp chewy crust with a good amount of toppings.

Petite pizzeria cachée sur le parking du No Frills, qui né paye pas de mine de l’extérieur mais qui à un choix de pizza intéressant.
En effet il y a un large choix de pizza et de tailles, pour tous les gouts.
Le patron et son équipent sont gentils et serviable et cela donne envie d’y retourner! De plus les prix né sont pas trop chers! Et elles sont vraiment bonnes!!!

Slice review:
I bought a pepperoni and cheese slice tonight as I was in the area and heard good things. I’ve noticed my downstairs neighbor order from this place even though there is a perfectly good place at the end of our street (Nick and Tony’s)
I notice right off the bat that there was some fresher pepperoni slices in the window which I should have opted out for but settled for one that had been sitting out for a while. Cashier heated it up and settled up the total for $ 3.10. The man brought the slice to me as I was sitting down. I noticed the cheese was right up to the edge of the crust which can be a good thing if you’re into that. The cheese had a good amount of grease coming off of it but not noticeable if you weren’t looking for it. The pepperoni and sauce had a nice tasty flavor to it which blended well with such a thin pizza. The slice is typical in size and can be somewhat filling.
Overall this place seems alright. It sounded like the owner knew who the locals were (who walked in as I was eating) and even handed a man his pie when it was ready. I’d like to try a whole pizza here some time, but I fear it’s not the pizza that I would fall heads over heals for.

I LOVE this place — well, I’ve never been to it but they deliver and their product is amazing!!! Perfectly thin cooked pizzas with fresh vegetables and super friendly staff on the other end of the line.
They have TONS of suggestions for pizzas with many of them vegetarian which is important to me. And you can also custom your own. Price is right — market value or less I would say.
My book club ordered it — one of the girls lives nearby and suggested it. My favourite part of this story is when we ordered we asked how much we should get for 7 girls and he said, are you cute girls? To which we of course answered yes and he said, well, cute girls don’t eat that much so you’ll be fine with an 18″ — we all laughed. I hope that comes off as endearing as it was to us… He might have been wrong though… we consumed it in astonishing quickness and probably might have eaten more if there was any! One of the girls ordered it for clients at work the next day. Since then I’ve ordered it to the office, home again and at a friend’s place. Nothing but rave reviews from my friends.
My favourite (so far!): The Giardinetta:
Spinach, roasted red peppers, feta cheese and marinated archichokes (I love artichokes on pizza!, ok, I love artichokes!)
