Pizzaiolo

Great experience here at Pizzaiolo. It gets full (5) stars from me.
The only demerits I have are the wait and a few burns. For both, they tried to do their best. They did seem to be busy and still tried to accommodate me to have a short waiting period. The cook also mentioned burns were possible, and if so, seemed open to discussing it further.
I was simply just hungry and it was good enough and still a really nice eat!
Also, this location vs. my previous review of a visit to another location (near by). They were able to work with my franchise gift card. It seemed they needed to educate themselves a bit in the process, though they got it done in a decent amount of time!

I just ordered a pizza and was almost assaulted by their delivery person. Not only did he not come up to my unit, he called me from the lobby and insisted I come down to meet him, he got very rude to me when I left him a $ 5 tip instead of a $ 10 tip (my order was $ 23)
He stormed out and slammed the front door of my building. He was also uttering some rude comments as he left.
Seriously this is what I have to deal with??!

Pretty forgettable as far as pizza is concerned. I’ve had pizzas from a lot of behind the glass places in a lot of cities and the freshness and quality here is just not up to par. Pizza always seems to be hours out of the oven by the time it gets to me. This place could really benefit from having a better idea of what to make and went to make it. Too much cheese, not enough sauce, practically a cheese bread more often than not.

10:45pm pizza craving. Parked up front and ran in and bought 6 slices to go. It was stacked up on top of each other on paper plates inside a neatly folded paper bag. Temperature was still warm when I get home and it tasted pretty good. Pepperoni was a bit salty but what pepperoni isn’t? Crust had some char but it was good char. Ate all the pizza and ate all the crust. It was good even cold. I’d order it again.

WORST PIZZA EVER. I ordered at 9 and the pizza didn’t come until 10:30! It was cold and disgusting and tasted like gross cardboard. NEVER AGAIN. Don’t order from here. THE WORST PIZZA EXPERIENCE IN TORONTO.

When you order pizzaiolo you should also call the police cause you’re going to get raped. I paid $ 40!!! And the toppings were stingy. This pizza was supposed to have bacon. I ate 3 slices with one piece of fatty bacon.

Terrible pizza and sometimes they don’t even deliver the pizza when they say they do. Often times the pizza is done wrong, or soggy. This is the worst pizza place in Toronto!

Best Pizza I’ve had bar none. Their dough is best and sooo soft. Been to different locations but this is my favorite.

In my continuing quest for 5-​star delivery pizza in Toronto, I decided to try Pizzaiolo for the first time. (Yes, I know it’s a chain but I never bothered.)
I’m going to cut to the chase. We ordered a couple pies for delivery. We waited an hour. They only brought one pizza and we discovered after opening the box that it was the wrong one. We called to let them know. The delivery man came back 10 minutes later with our correct order. He wanted to know if we still had the other pizza.
That’s right: He wanted the pizza back. The one that was delivered incorrectly and sat in a stranger’s home for 10 minutes.
HE WANTED. THE PIZZA. BACK.

Gave this place two tries, and got burned on both.
My latest order (tonight) — placed an order online for pickup — I get the pizza and bring it home and it was not what I ordered (it was missing pepperoni and some of the ingredients were meant for half of the pizza). I quickly called them back and the person on the phone was rude and said «well, this is what was in the system so deal with it». That is not how you run a business.
The first time I went was at night after the bar and they actually ripped off my friend by trying to charge him more than the pizza was worth (he was about to pay but luckily I caught it). Thought it was just a bad apple there but apparently this is how that business operates.
Pizzaiolo, you’ve now joined Pizza Pizza on the list of places I will never visit again. For anyone thinking of ordering here, think twice.

Yep, this is my new favourite pizza establishment. Fantastic toppings, fresh, tasty, AND plenty to choose from.
Although I mostly get delivery, I do like that when I walk-​in to grab a slice, I have many pre-​made choices waiting for me. Truly a very extensive amount.
And, really? Who knew potatos on pizza was the right thing to do? It sounds weird, but the taste buds never lie. They know.

The last time I was in this Pizzaiolo (which will likely be the last time, as my company’s moving to a new neighborhood) it was a miserable, rainy day and it seemed like everyone for 10 blocks had ordered in. I got my order, sat down at the bar overlooking the kitchen and just watched the cook work. He was deep in the weeds, with a multi-​pie order coming in about once a minute. He was hypnotizing, putting together 3 or 4 at a time, over and over. By the time I’d finished my slice, he’d dug himself out and had the delivery guy going out with more bags than I’d ever seen.
The counter girls are lovely, friendly and super-​efficient and the place is kept in good shape despite the sheer number of slovenly customers.
Oh, and the food’s great too.
Best pizza place ever.
I’ll miss it.

I love love Pizzaiolo! After a night out, I crave their pizza with their wonderful toppings. I am a fan of their spinach/​tomato type topping pizza slices. They even have pizza for vegans, how awesome is that.
This location is on the main King West strip, it is has ample seating for those that want to stick around. The service was over-​top, I accidentally dropped my half my slice of pizza on the floor and they gave me another slice for my troubles. I was not expecting that.
Make Pizzaiolo your pizza stop!

My fav neighborhood pizza joint. Doesn’t taste mass produced, and not as greasy.
The slices are beastly large.

I’ve had this pizza a couple of times — it’s damn tasty. They certainly picked up where Amato plummeted into failed business-​hood.
I’m giving them a crappy rating because we ordered delivery last week — the guy had a really difficult time taking the order, after an hour and a half of no pizza (and two confusing phone calls) our empty stomachs were eating themselves so I finally canceled the order, opting to go out to eat. The delivery guy showed up shortly thereafter anyhow with a cold bag of food that looked like it had been been kicked around.
He was pushing his way into the apartment, demanding we take the food, as I was trying to close the door after politely declining twice, my boyfriend finally had to yell profanities to get him to leave.
Totally never ordering from them again, but might hit them up on a late night stagger home.

A great spot for an afternoon slice. With 3 different types of vegan pizza available and $ 4 a slice, how can you go wrong?
My favourite was originally the Fredo, potatoes with rosemary is a good combo. The only problem is, they cut the potatoes to thin! Honestly, how much are you spending on potatoes? Give me a decent slice! Now I’m leaning more towards the Vittoria, those herbed tomatoes really hit the spot. Wait, how come «herbed» isn’t a word? What about herbing? Nope. Darn that sucks. I should probably re-​write this review then. Hmm… nope, it doesn’t look like that’s going to happen.

OMG!!! I CAN EAT PIZZA IN TORONTO AGAIN!!!
Tonight was a crazy night, which consisted of being fitted for a fashion show, rehearsal, make-​up and waiting eons backstage for the show to start at a King St. W lounge. Prior to all the madness at the lounge, the models and I took a dinner break near the lounge. We wanted pizza (YES, models eat carbs!) so the majority of us went to Pizza Pizza, which was 2 doors down from the lounge. I decided that I didn’t want pizza from the pizza giant, so I asked a model to come with me across the street to Pizzaiolo… a pizza joint that I’d never been to and seemingly better than Pizza Pizza. I was secretly hoping that they might have/​make me a slice of cheeseless pizza (like my beloved 2001 Flavours in VanCity… I MISS YOU BC!). To my surprise, they have THREE types of vegan, cheeseless pizza:
1. Whole Wheat Diana –mushrooms, spinach, herbed tomatoes, zucchini and olive oil
2. Fredo –yukon gold potatoes, olive oil, fresh rosemary and oregano
3. Vittoria –herbed tomatoes, zucchini, roasted red peppers and their famous Pizzaiolo Sauce
I chose the Diana ($ 4.19, taxes included) and it was awesome: The whole wheat crust was thin and had a good texture, quantity of the veggies (spinach in particular) was generous, and the quality of the veggies was superb. It was not bad for a re-​heated pizza. It’s definitely better than Cora’s vegan pizza –which until today was my fave place for pizza in Toronto because of its 1 vegan pizza selection.
Although Pizzaiolo has certainly impressed me with having THREE regular vegan pizzas and has made me very happy, reheated pizza slices still does not beat a freshly baked pizza slice, made upon request, with all the veggie toppings I want… all just for me at $ 1.50. Oh, how I’ve miss you 2001 Flavours… the reason why I only eat pizza in Vancouver. I LOVE BC!
**The Cavs were at the lounge I was modeling at tonight. I asked one of them if there was a game tonight and he said no, it’s tomorrow. He also said they’re gonna beat the Raps! How arrogant! I hope the Raptors school them tomorrow night! GOOOOO Raptors!
