Music and vibe is a bit unique, but food is fantastique. I'd recommend it for sure for a catch up or third date! read more

Ambassador Pizza - Wings, meatballs and fresh bread - Pizza Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I had really good memories of this place from two years ago, but it seems the quality hasn't held up. The dough had a nice chew, but everything else was lackluster. I ordered the pepperoni pizza and could barely taste anything. There was only a very thin layer of toppings, making the whole experience bland. The bottom of the slices lacked the nice leapoardy char I remembered. There was no crunch, just chew. I'm not sure what changed over the past two years, but I hope that if I ever try Ambassador's again, it will have returned to its former glory. read more

came to this restaurant for Windsor style pizza, to avoid going to windsor, for this speciality style pizza and I had a burning question "why aren't you open Thursdays" no were open Thursdays "you should update your website then?" i'm not sure what you mean... i tried to come here with a friend, on a thursday and it didnt happen, so a monday visit it was there is a serious disconnect from the area where you sit and where the pizza comes out this was my first hand experience from the dining experience. my friend and I placed an order with the staff member and waited for the bread and the pizza to come when the pizza is ready, the chef places the pizza on a barrel and rings a bell, and someone from the bar runs over to grab the pizza and bring it to your table I ordered garlic sauce and got ranch, the dipping sauce was free so it wasn't worth correcting the bread was decent, but the pizza was not for me or for my friend, who had the "infamous" shredded pepperoni my veggie pizza the cheese was the best part, the toppings were bland, and it was tough to eat by the end without the sauce. paid for the order and went to the bathroom which had a busted door, random fluid on the ground and fruit flies, which is odd for a winter visit. aside from the lackluster experience, this neighborhood is a nightmare to obtain a parking spot even close to this place, as it took my friend about 10 minutes to find a spot with some walking, with the various one way streets and signed prohibiting parking would go somewhere else, not enough to bring me back, even though i'm rarely in this neighborhood to begin with read more

Ordered 18" "Cheese" pie ($28), "well done." Was cooked impressively accurate to order with very good crispness, but found the underside a tiny bit over-done. Probably due to being made "well-done," there was nothing excpetional about the pie; it was seemingly a slightly inferior pie to F.B.I. pizza. The dough was nicely thin but not very airy. The sauce was nicely savoury without being to plain "tomatoey" or watery. It wasn't very noticeable (likely due to pie being "well-done.") The website claims they use Galati cheese (not sure if its mixed with Mozzarella) but the cheese flavour was not exceptionally noticeable. Would reccomend avoiding ordering a "well-done" pie to have a better experience. "Mac's Pizza" is nearby to the west and "Levant Pizza" is nearby to the east. Lots of pizza diversity and choice along Bloor in this area, and worth a visit to all 3. read more

I came on 2023-08-24 and 2023-10-27, both times at my son's request. He came once before me. The pizza slices are huge! It is bigger than our faces! They mostly sell 14" or 18" whole pizzas, but you can buy a cheese slice ($7.50) or pepperoni slice ($8.00). We ordered pepperoni slices both times. It is possible to buy a whole 14" pepperoni pizza for $25. The pepperoni pizza slices were delicious. They have you shakers to add your own chili flakes and/or cheese. The service was attentive. The kitchen and takeout-only were opened on Feb 2021. The tavern portion (with indoor and outdoor seating) opened on Jun 2023. The tavern also introduced an extended menu (wings and hanzerotti) and a bar with bar counter seating. There is free WiFi. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. There are two gender-neutral washrooms, but they are not wheelchair accessible. There is paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2023-356 read more

The Hawaiian pizza was very good despite being a little too salty for me. There was a little fly that kept going around us which was quite annoying. But otherwise this is a pretty chill place to hang out read more

Is it possible that the best Windsor style pizza is made in Toronto? That might sound sacrilegious to Windsorites but as someone who grew up on Franco's, Armando's and Capri I can definitively say there's something special cooking up at Bloor and Oss! You get the canned shrooms the shredded pepperoni and the Galati cheese it's the real deal! Service is prompt and attentive and the owner who stopped by our table for a long chat was super friendly. Lots of great options to try we got the 519 and the Ambassador. Will have to go back to try others. And was that TBQ style ribs we saw on the tent card on the table? Mmmm... sign me up for a return visit! They say you can't go home again but this place comes pretty close. And if you're not from Windsor and think that we say "Pierre" and "Pellisier" funny don't worry you're still welcome to try it, trust me you'll love it! read more

I was born and raised in Windsor, and I would always remember when my older brother moved to Toronto how much he would complain about the pizza choices. Whenever he came home, the first thing he would do was order pizza. When I moved to Toronto, I finally understood what he meant. So when Ambassador Pizza opened up in Toronto I couldn't be more excited! They did not disappoint with true Windsor pizza at all. I love that that the pizza names are references to Windsor. I love that they have that same cornmeal crust. The brushed garlic butter is a treat! The shredded pepperoni and canned mushrooms, yum! And the absolute best part....they have the GOAT...Galati cheese! I also love that they're also offering frozen pies at various stores so you can make at home (have to try those still), and creating a new item, the Hanzerotti! Although the pizzas are on the pricer side, their portions are huge, so it really even out and it's worth it. I've been telling everyone I know about Ambassador, and you should too! read more

This place does Windsor style pizza (shredded pepperoni & canned mushrooms). The names of the pizzas are all Windsor references. Got the Real deal. Small is 13". The shredded pepperoni meant every mouthful got some pepperoni, but also that the pepperoni taste was less concentrated. So whether this is good or not depends on your preference. The pizza sauce was good & it was well integrated. The crust was light & crispy & the cheese was more gooey than elsewhere. read more

So it's a soft opening. You can find on Instagram. @ambassadorpizzaco Windsor style pizza. So of course I had to try it. https://beltmag.com/cheese-please-how-did-pizza-become-one-of-windsor-ontarios-hottest-exports/ From this link I read this "A Windsor pizza place, Armando's, was named the third-best pizza in the world at the 30th International Pizza Expo in Vegas in 2014. " So not officially open yet lol. But I got 3 pies on valentines. Good: definitely yum. Soft crust chewy, tasty Bad: not cheap but that's what you get. Looking forward to being able to select my own toppings. Current offered 3: cheese only, pepperoni-mushrooms-peppers?, super has a bunch.. Anyways I got all 3. One was for a friend. If you're near ossington worth getting. They are in defunct gelato place. read more

Amazing pizza huge slice. It's my favorite go to place as someone that lives in the area definitely a must get.

Windsor pizza - known for shredded pepperoni to ensure you get pepperoni on every bite and canned mushrooms to ensure your mushrooms don't burn. It's a thing. But they do offer fresh mushrooms for the less adventurous. Cheese is extremely gooey. Crust is crispy on the outside while soft on the inside. Website mentions five specialty pizzas. Been boosting Windsor pizza for years. Once restrictions are lifted, there are gonna be some epic face offs soon. Windsor pizza vs Toronto pizza. Best of luck! read more

Ambassador Pizza - Shredded pepperoni pizza. - Pizza Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Ordered a pizza yesterday. This may have been the worst pizza I have ever eaten. I have been to ambassador many times and it's generally really good. This was horrible, small, extremely expensive, dry, cold and will never go there again. They turned off the ability to review the restaurant which makes me highly suspicious that something is up. Avoid this pizza, so many other options in Toronto. 1/10 rating! read more

PINEAPPLE EXPRESS from Ambassador Pizza Co. is loaded with tomato sauce, cheese, ham, bacon, pineapple, and hot peppers (18" large pie for $36 plus tax). Though their tomato sauce is on the subtle side, their abundance of other ingredients really kept each bite flavorful. Thankfully this pie was not too salty despite the double meat, and the pairing of hot peppers really gave it that slight tangy kick, which paired so well. Oh, and I also requested for the garlic brushed crust finish which was mild to taste but free of charge, so why not? To further elevate flavor, I paired this our with their GARLIC DIP but it wasn't my favorite version, as it was quite heavy on the vinegar. Overall, the crust is where this pizza falls short. Though the outer edges were prepared nicely, resulting in a decently airy (but no wood oven bubbles) crust, that was soft on the inside with a crisp exterior, the undercarriage was not well done. This meant a floppy pizza that broke apart upon handling. Note: I had preordered online for 8 pm but the pizza wasn't ready upon arrival. Just a 5-10 minute wait. read more

Ambassador Pizza - Pineapple Express - Pizza Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Growing up in Windsor but then moving away for school here always made me miss Windsor style pizza (known for shredded pepperoni and canned mushrooms). Even after being in NY and trying a bunch of pizza spots, Windsor-style pizza will always have my heart. I was so happy to find Ambassador Pizza here in Toronto! Feels like a slice of home. My order was the 519 - Shredded pepperoni, green peppers, canned mushrooms and mozzarella. I also love how the pizza names relate to various places around Windsor. I just wish they opened a location closer to King West! read more

Ambassador Pizza - 519 - Shredded Pepperoni, Canned Mushrooms, Green Peppers and Mozzarella - Pizza Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Small hidden pizza place across from Baker Bots. I've always seen that place, but because its pretty lowkey, black storefront I never really knew it was even a restaurant until today when I saw people walking away with Pizzas. I love pizza and I'm always willing to find the new best pizza. So I walked up to their small little window and asked if they any slices left. Luckily they still had a veggie slice, the owner said hes not a vegetarian but even loves this pizza. The owner and workers were actually really friendly and they told me about how their location in Windsor was even better than the one here. He said it was like night and day, as if comparing risotto to fried rice. Apparently one thing they do differently is thinly sliced pepperoni so it covers more surface area. I've always been more of a fan for small cuppy pepperonis but I'm intrigued to come back and try their pepperoni slice one day. On to the pizza slice, tomato sauce was good. Veggie slice comes with onion, green pepper, olives and mushrooms (I believe). The crust when fresh out the oven is pretty nice and crispy. The dough is made with 00 flour according to the owner, however I usually like to test the crust after it cools down a bit to get a better taste for the dough. For me, one of the most essential parts of a pizza is the dough, since it's basically 90% of the pizza. The crust to me should be like really good bread, so good that you're willing to eat it alone and not throw away. For me, this crust was just ok. Not amazing, but good enough. It gets a solid 4/5 for now, but I can't wait to come back and try other things they have or their better store in Windsor. read more

Ambassador Pizza - veggie slice - Pizza Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Even their small pizza is huge. Apparently it's 13" for the small and 21" for the large pizzas. We got the super and the ambassador and I loved both of them. They open at 4p but I called at 4:06pm on Sat and they were all booked up til 9pm. Tip for ordering: they take order from 2pm. I bit pricy but I enjoyed every slice of it! Would def buy more if it was a bit cheaper. P.S. make sure to ask for garlic spread on your pizza. You'll thank me later read more

Having left Windsor for school and work about 40 years ago, I only get to experience Windsor pizza when I visit. Having had pizza from the Volcano, Sam's and Franco's, Ambassador Pizza brings accessibility a lot closer. Absolutely agree with Ken C's review. Delivery to Markham is a bit far but the drive to enjoy hot piping Windsor style pizza is worth it. Added bonus is TBQ ribs on the menu to be enjoyed next time. My coworker said he found Windsor pizza ranked third overall worldwide. I'll be back! read more

The best pizza in the city. Fairly priced. The people that work there really care. The pizza is consistent. I'll be recommending this place for the rest of my life. read more

I was amazed and very happy to find authentic Windsor pizza in Toronto. I went to try it with another south windsor boy. We grew up eating Arcada and Capri - still two of the finest pizza makers in Canada.... but I'm pleased to say it was the real deal and more importantly it was really really good. Can't wait for my friends from Windsor to visit. Try it, best in Toronto. read more

Loved Ambassador. Read about it on BlogTO and I thought it lives up to the hype. Good toppings, good crust, good amount of cheese. Their pepperoni which apparently is brought in from Windsor was good. Will definitely be ordering again. read more

I live fairly close to here so the need to try it was obvious. Formerly just a pick up window adjacent to the previous restaurant attached, they have taken over the space and made it their own. They have continued with the smaller take out window for an easy (HUGE) slice on the go. The shredded pepperoni on their pizza isn't for everyone but I personally love it. The thing that I find most original about this place is their signature 'hanzerotti', essentially a panzo but longer and thinner but stuffed with the same amazing ingredients. The staff is efficient and friendly and always on it when you ask for a drink recommendation. The locally sourced beer is also a plus in my books. The prices are a little steep for a small pizza place, but that's Bloorcourt for you. They host weekly trivia nights and overall it's a lovely place for a quick dinner, date, or sit in night. read more

Staff were extremely friendly. Casual local tavern with great tasting pizza and drinks.

The best pizza in Toronto. Hands down. Since moving here I haven't found a good, reliable go-to spot, but this is finally it!!!

A friend from Windsor recommended a Windsor-style pizza from Ambassador Pizza Co. Another friend and I got a small "Super" and totaled it in about 10 minutes (8 slices, 4 each). We should have gotten a large, not because a small wasn't enough, but because we liked it so much. read more
