Mark's Pizza is a small pizza place at a rather obscure intersection in an unassuming plaza. Don't be fooled by the simple location and the charming, home-drawn logo: the pizzas are unique, with the most flavorful tomato sauce and mozzarella, delightful pepperoni and an assortment of artisan quality toppings. Mark's turns out some of the most flavorful pizzas in Pickering and East Scarborough, and I've tried a lot of pizza! Each week, they have a different feature pizza, and the full size pizzas are similar to a New York style, with the thin, crisp bottom crust surrounded by a heftier, lightly charred edge crust. Full pizzas are ordered in advance on line, but they have Italian sandwiches and pizza slices to go (subject to availability). The slices have a thicker crust than the full pizzas, and look delicious. There is limited seating for eating in, and Mark's mainly does a take-out business. I went on line earlier today, and ordered a 6:00 pick-up. The online order system is efficient and user-friendly. We had a pepperoni pizza as well as this week's special, a meatball and pesto pizza. Both were excellent, and the tomato sauce really stood out. It was garlicy, herbaceous and delightfully savory; quite different from the bland, sweet tomato sauce served up by most of the large chains. The crust was flavorful, and lightly charred to perfection, giving it a slightly smoky flavor. As a crust snob, I was very pleased! The meatball and pesto pizza was really good, with flavorful, juicy mini-meatballs and delightfully garlic-forward pesto. The pesto, made from pumpkin seeds rather than the traditional pine nuts, was so good with bold garlic and basil flavours. The pepperoni pizza was superb, with the cup-and-char, New York style pepperoni. My whole family was delighted!! In short, the pizzas are remarkably flavourful, and their preparation shows time, care, and attention to quality ingredients, as well as a superior crust. It was worth the drive from Pickering, and with the efficiency of Hwy. 2, took only about 15 minutes. Parking is a bit tight, but there is frequent turnover of parking spots. Thanks to Chloe H. at the counter for friendly service with helpful recommendations for me to consider for future orders. And there will certainly be future orders from me! read more

I finally checked out this local spot my neighbor kept talking about, and wow, Mark's Pizza is the real deal. This is a classic mom-and-pop shop, and it absolutely lives up to the hype. We grabbed a box of assorted slices just to sample as much as possible, and I genuinely couldn't pick a favorite. Every single slice was excellent, proving the quality is totally consistent. You can actually taste the quality ingredients. The experience was great overall, too. The team working there was friendly and welcoming, which always makes a difference. Must-Try Tip: Get their Calabrian chili and mix it right into the house ranch. It's an unbelievable combination. Just be careful; the heat sneaks up on you quickly! This place is officially going into our regular order list. Seriously, we think this is the best pizza in Scarborough. read more

If you're a pizza lover, this spot is an absolute must-try! They specialize in Roman-style slices and whole round pizzas, and let me tell you--those Roman slices are to die for. Every single flavor I've tried has been a hit. What makes it even better is that the toppings and slice options change daily, so there's always something exciting and new. Pictured here are two of my favorites: 1. Nduja & Onion - the spicy, savory pork sausage with sweet onion was perfectly balanced and bursting with flavor. 2. Roasted Mushroom, Peppers, Pepperoni & Pineapple - absolutely loaded with pepperoni and had that perfect sweet-and-savory balance. Hot tip: Add the hot honey. Seriously. It's the perfect touch of sweet heat and takes every slice to the next level. Highly recommend! I've ordered a whole round pizza before as well--still delicious, but I found that the crisp and texture of the slices just can't be beat. If you're going for peak experience, go with the Roman slices. Staff here are incredibly helpful and friendly, always happy to walk through the daily options and offer solid recommendations. There's some seating both inside and outside, but it's a small shop overall. read more

Tried 3 different slices here. Dough looks thick but is crispy and airy when you take a bite which is nice. Flavour punch just wasn't there for me and tasted a bland. May try a "made to order" pizza next time. read more

Kept hearing that this was the best pizza in Scarborough so decided to give it a try. Price $25-$30 per pizza Items ordered: -Spicy Pepperoni with Hot Honey -Ham Mushroom Brie with Bacon (extra add on) -Ranch Dipping Sauce Food Quality (Menu, Taste, Portion size) - 5/5 I've been hunting for something that tastes like Badiali and I think I found it! The dough was amazing, great combination of being soft while the bottom/crust are crispy. They don't skimp out on the toppings.The pepperoni was exactly how I like it, new york style. Both pizzas were great that I couldn't pick a favourite. The Spicy Pepperoni is pretty spicy so maybe take off some of the jalapeños if that helps. They have a wide menu, including slices and sandwiches but those run out so go earlier in the day. It is pretty pricy compared to pizza chains but on par with all those downtown pizza places. The dipping sauce was okay, I think you'd be better off getting dipping sauce from another place. Atmosphere - N/A Classic old fashion pizza place. Has some seating but mainly for pick up. Service - 5/5 Everyone there is so nice and helpful. Very welcoming when you walk in. Will I go again? Yes, need to try the others! It's very comparable to Badiali. It's a bit pricey compared to the chains but in the same range as all those downtown pizza places.

You should avoid the Internet for many reasons, not the least of which is that it dangles reviews of places like this in front of your nose, compelling you to make the big journey to Scarborough without a car to get a pizza there. This is a small pizzeria in a small strip mall. Inside is a very clean and functional take out space, There is a counter you might be able to stand up at, and in good weather there are three small tables outside, but if you're going there in winter, either have a car or buy a house nearby. There is one man (Mark, I imagine) who has a passion for pizzas, and it's recommended you order ahead of time and reserve a pizza. If you're travelling a huge distance, then this is a good idea. You can also add in a customization to your order online. I got there at the appointed time, and had to wait for a bit. The man behind the counter was friendly and efficient. I had time to take a little look around, and they offer some Italian groceries and what looked like maybe eggplant parmigiana in the fridge. The pizza came out and oh my goodness. I rushed outside to eat a slice at peak freshness and no, *you* burned your mouth a bit inhaling it. What flavour! Hot and sweet and salty and a slightly charred dough all combined to make a delicious bunch of bites! Even after I got it home and it had cooled down, I still happily devoured the whole thing. There is a good selection of pies with frankly upscale ingredients and upscale prices. But for excellent quality pizza, I don't mind paying extra. This will be an occasional treat for me, but it will be a very satisfying treat. read more

I'd heard this place had the best pizza in Scarborough, so I had to give it a try. While the pizza was good, I wouldn't say it's the best. I tried the pepperoni and mushrooms with truffle cream, as well as a veggie pizza with pineapple. For the price, I was expecting a bit more. That said, the service was great, the staff was friendly, and the pizzas were made fresh to order for my pick-up time. Overall, it was a nice little pizzeria. read more

One of my friends has been raving about Mark's pizza, so I just had to give it a try. I'm a sucker for a really good pepperoni slice and an even bigger sucker for honey on pizza, so I tried number five "Pepperoni with Jalapeño and Hot Honey" and it was absolutely delicious. Service was very fast and friendly. It's a takeout spot, so there isn't anywhere to sit and eat, but there is a little area to sit while you're waiting to pick up your order. I also ordered the ranch sauce. However, I accidentally dropped it on the way into my house so I won't be able to review it but it looked pretty large and it costed two dollars. read more

My favourite pizza in the GTA!! They offer a rotating pizza & sandwich menu every week from Wednesday to Saturday. Their slices have the best crust and freshest ingredients. My favourite slice with the 4 cheese with hot honey. The owners are so kind & nice, a lovely mom & pop shop serving freshly made pizza. No seating inside but they have small tables outside during the warmer months. read more

Been here a couple of times and each visit has been an absolute pleasure! I had to drop in to grab the sandwiches when I saw the weekly menu come through my email and boy, was I glad I did. I took the eggplant parm sandwich and my hubby ordered the mortadella. Both sandwiches were ginormous so we cut them into halves and we got to enjoy both sandwich halves. Mind you, even the halved sandwiches were too big to finish for lunch so I ended up saving some for late afternoon snack. The pizza slices we picked up for my daughter was also very good. Mark sells the most divine green olives which can be found in their fridge in a take home container. These olives are stuff of my dreams. Buttery, salty and delicious with a late night snack with a good salametti. I will definitely keep eating Mark's food as long as he is around! read more

I've been meaning to stop in here for a long time + finally made it today and my advice? Don't wait on Marks Pizza -- absolutely delicious. I took home 4 different slices for us to try: spicy pepperoni, cheese, white mushroom pizza + pepperoni and jalapeños. If I'm being honest ... the pepperoni + jalapeños slice was one of the BEST slices I've ever enjoyed (and I've tried lots of pizza!). The sauce was perfect, crust is crispy and tastes like pizza crusts should and the toppings were fresh and abundant. A hidden gem that deserves its flowers! (Also took home tiramisu because it's right thing to do). Your next pizza night or craving delicious takeout, make it Marks. Thank me later. read more

Driven by this store countless times and was always curious. After visiting their website I had to give it a try. Visited for lunch, order: Pepperoni, Mushrooms and Truffle Cream, and Soppressata and Hot Longs. The pizza dough is divine! It's so light and so airy, so good! My favourite was definitely the truffle cream pizza. Prices are fair for the quality of pizza and I'd definitely come again! Just be aware they aren't open everyday and serve slices (until they sell out) starting at 11:30am. Whole pizzas available starting at 3:30pm. read more

Amazing slices of pizza. Many of their slices are great, especially the Hot honey pepperoni with jalapeño was very enjoyable with their garlic dip. Likely Scarborough's best pizza! I highly recommend! read more

Favourite pie in the Scarborough area as of late, no hyperbole intended. Their pies are 16" and we ordered the "Cheese" pie at $25 [comes with basil, garnished with parm (not sure if Parmesan or Parm-Reg) and olive oil]. Asked for extra cheese and nearly well-done. The tomato sauce was easily the best factor in the pie. Very dynamic, pleasantly-seasoned, & potent tomato flavours in the sauce, without being too acidic or sour, with tangy hints. This wonderful tomato sauce was coupled with a nicely rich and savoury mozzarella, which created a superb "umami" (or deeply savoury) flavour, which was enjoyed by all. Reminiscent to adding a touch of anchovies to a dish. The outside inch was nicely crispy. But the rest of the pie could have been crispier. The dough was "good" (light amount of air pockets, and robust without being sweet) but could have had more air pockets/bubbles. Compared to 'Lamanna's Bakery' (where apparently, you have to order a pie 24 hours in advance, with slices available for immediate purchase), the dough's of each are both "fine" yet slightly different (Lamanna's had a tiny smokier flavour which I preferred, Mark's more neutral) but 'Mark's Pizzas' has easily the superior tomato sauce (Lamanna's was very plain, practically bland), and better mozz cheese flavour. I would reccomend not adding extra cheese to your pie, since it takes away from the excellent tomato sauce flavour, and arguably makes the pie less crispy since the heavy cheese would block heat from making the dough crispier. Seems they are adding and/or modifying pies weekly, so seemingly new flavour profiles available on the regular. Definitely a "recommended" if in the east Scarborough area, and would also reccomend visiting Lamanna's Bakery (for slices for immediate consumption (11am-5pm when open) or to pick up a pie 24 hours after ordering one, as per policy) and 'Mark's Pizzas' (as of this writing: Wed.-Sat. 3:00pm/3:30pm/4:00pm to 7:30pm-8:30pm, lunch Thurs.-Fri. 11:30pm-1:30pm ), as they are also less than 3km apart on the same road. At the moment, 'Mark's Pizzas' offers slices: Thursday and Friday 11:30am-1:30pm and soon Saturdays too. read more

Been here a few times and this is probably the best pizza in the Scarborough area. I always order the pies in advance and the pizza is at its best eaten right away and fresh. Service is great and the workers are very accommodating. There was a time when it was later in the evening the ones working there set up tables for myself and my gf to be able to eat outside. Pepperoni on the pizza is a lot, has a bit of spiciness to it and their cheese is top notch. Tomato sauce is tasty and the dough is soft and crunchy at the same time. Just got into pizzas this year and this is a spot that I will always go for pizza in Scarbz. Recommend Marks and will go here again. read more

Amazing pizza! Finally got around to try marks pizza and was incredibly blown away. The ordering process is super easy, You order online and set a time to pick it up. You use the code PAYONPICKUP to pay at the store. The store is simple and straight forward. They have some sweets, cheeses, sauces, pizza dough etc in a display fridge. The whole pick up process was very smooth and staff were friendly!! But oh man, the pizza. I really believe this place makes some bomb ass pizza. I picked a seasonal pizza, it included roasted corn, oven roasted tomatoes and salsa verde. It had some delightful basil pesto cream to give it that extra edge. I added pepperoni as extra but tbh it would have been great without it too. The pizza tastes incredibly fresh. All the ingredients are sourced locally!! I will say it was a tad greasy, but it was all the good stuff. The corn was fresh and sweet (since it's in season haha) the tomatoes were so juicy, they were practically bursting as I bit into them. All the flavours worked well together!! I was just blown away at the care and creativity that they put into their pizza! Prices are also very fair considering the amount of effort and quality in your pizza. The pizza is also MASSIVE , So I deff recommend everyone to try at least once. Amazing pizza. Try it!! read more

I've been waiting to order this pizza for quite awhile. It opens from Wednesday to Saturday and the doors open up at 3:30pm. It's a two minute drive for me from work and I finish work at 2:30. But manage to stay a little late and finally got a pepperoni pizza. Absolutely worth staying later at work. Just the right amount of everything and the excellent dough and flavour. Very friendly, just walk in and the smell is so good. My go to place for pizza until I find another place. read more
