5 star may skew a little on the high end, but I'd lean this way more than 4 stars.
Funny enough, I have never tried Blondies pizza, though they're well known from starting in Leslieville years ago and now expanding in a few other locations. We were meeting my parents who are in Halton and were wanting pizza, and this came up on the search.
It's actually quite a large space, which may surprise some. There's a couple long tables on one side that could seat up to 12 people. And then there's several tables that seat up to 4 people on the other side. And they are set up for dine-in even more than I expected as the pizza was served on the elevated trays when it came out, along with proper dinnerware (non disposable).
It's a total guess, but I feel it may be called Blondies since about half their pizzas are on a white sauce. In spite of that, we went with two large pizzas made with red sauce. One with pepperoni, mushroom and olives, and the other (Don't think, sparkle!) with salami, sausage and bacon. We also ordered hot wings and the kale caesar salad.
The pizza came out super quick, so it really is the NY style, high heat pizza. All the toppings were great quality, including the mushrooms which were whole button mushrooms rather than just diced. About every single person commented on how the crust was. A crunch base, but also nice and chewy, and the end crust was so tasty that it was a joy to eat itself (well, with some of the great dip). There were 6 of us, and it exceeded expectations for everyone, and may kids even ate more than they typically do.
The wings were good and worth ordering, but didn't stand out too much. I really liked the kale caesar salad, as did my dad, but you do of course have to enjoy kale.
Coming to the end of the review, I'm not even sure saying 5 stars is generous. It's pretty deserving and not far off the top of my list. read more
