Lambert P.

I had my first pizza from Napolitan today. I walked in and ordered a pepperoni and anchovy 16" pizza. Based on the price schedule it would be 20 bucks for a 16" and 1 dollar for each topping. So it should have been 22 bucks but they have an opening week special for a 16" with free toppings for 20. I was told it was going to be about 25 minutes so what do I do? I go back to my car and attempt to check into the business. To my surprise there was no listing for the business so here I am phone on hotspot so I can connect to the internet and make a business entry. I love making new business entries. Anyway so I'm connected to the internet and filling it out and I get an email that somebody needed help in BC so I'm on the network fixing a problem... done. Next I get a call from my president asking for help. I end up helping him and by the time I'm done all that the pizza is ready. I drive home to go have dinner and I open the box and here we go. The pizza is very different from any chain pizza because it's not made like any of those. I'll cut to the chase. This pizza tastes like home made pizza and when I say home made I mean like my mother in law makes who is from Calabria. This pizza has a great amount of cheese on it. The cheese was cooked so it wasn't stringy at all. It's bubbled on so to speak. The crust is different too. It's really chewy but the bottom is not crunchy. In my opinion it seemed to be a little overcooked in a sense that the crust wasn't too thin and like I said it was chewy. They had a brick oven which literally isn't one of those ovens in the backyard made of bricks. Their flyer says it's a Moretti Brick Oven from Italy. That's unique. Also it says: "Family recipe using the best ingredients Fresh vegatables hand cut daily Fresh dough made daily Fresh sauce using Italian tomatoes from Campania" I'm going to give it 3 stars only because I feel my pizza seemed a bit overcooked. Besides that it was good. It wasn't salty which I'm actually used to and that is another thing I pretty much immediately noticed. Most chain pizza is saltier. Try to not forget I had pepperoni and anchovy as my toppings both of which are pretty salty on their own. It didn't seem that there was very much sauce but when I did get a taste of it, it tasted very good. I hate acidic sauce with a passion. Home made ingredients is always a big plus. I will give them another chance but it was a good start and the place seemed pretty busy while I was there. The location for this place is actually really good. It's right near Kipling station and near all the high rise condos nearby. TIP: they seem to be cash only at least for now. They are a new business so I'm guessing they are going to interac/credit card system soon maybe but for now (the first week) they seem to be running cash only.

House Special with green olives - so good!

I've been driving by this place for a few months now and finally got to check it out last week. Here's my review: First and foremost, don't go with the expectations of gourmet pizza like a certain spot in Mimico. Take it for what it is, which is good, fresh, homemade tasting pizza. We ordered the 14 inch Napolitan House Special (thin crust) but substituted green olives for green peppers. It was a good move because it added a nice natural saltiness. The pizza was exceptional! Very tasty crust with a little bit of chew, no grease whatsoever, ingredients were super fresh and the sauce tasted homemade - not like typical chain pizza Ragu sauce. What I really appreciated was how friendly and accommodating the owner was and how the pizza was ready in time. My only complaints would be that I wished the sauce was a bit more seasoned (but that's just my preference) and I couldn't really taste the bacon (wish there was more). However, with that being said, we still plan to go back. I think as time goes on and when he starts to see more business, he should think of offering gourmet toppings because with that crust, it would be killer! I'm going to rate it 4.5/5 because I couldn't really taste the bacon. Again, I always try to encourage support of local businesses. I really, really wish him luck and hope it stays open as the pizza really outstanding. Great location too!

We ordered the Napolitan special and it was excellent. Crust was very light and the pizza wasn't greasy. According to the owner (who was very nice), they use a different kind of flour that's why you can eat more and not feel heavy/bloated. Highly recommend this place.

Excellent and fresh

Pretty bland pizza but edible. I expected more. The staff were rude and made my experience unpleasant. I definitely won't be back.

This place gets a solid 4.5/5 for its authentic southern Italian food and very friendly & attentive…read moreservice. It has a very homey, old-school Italian American restaurant ambience - the opposite of the stylish, hipster or touristy restaurant vibe. Apparently this restaurants gets a lot of regulars, and I could see why. As soon as you walk in, you feel like you're transported back to the 1960s with the red-and-white checkered tablecloths, red chairs, old-style wax candles, brick walls, and a large black-and-white photo of an Italian family on the wall (perhaps the founder or owner's?). I could see this place being a movie set for films that need an old, classic Italian American restaurant as a setting. In addition to the décor, I love the 1960s music being played in the background. Size-wise, the inside of the restaurant isn't that big so it feels very cozy. It can get very busy and crowded after 5 pm, as most people seem to come here for dinner. We came during lunch hour and we were the only patrons there. The southern Italian touches are very apparent in most of their dishes - with heavy reliance on olive oil, tomato-based sauces (especially in the fish and seafood dishes), fresh seafood, herbs, peppers, and vegetables such as eggplant. This is in contrast to northern Italian cuisine that is characterized by rich, creamy dishes using butter, lard, and cheeses, and puts more emphasis on rice, polenta, and meat-heavy dishes (where as seafood is more prevalent in the south). Dishes that we tried: 1) Baccala (Pan-Seared Black Cod) - This was the BEST and my favourite dish here. The black cod had a crispy exterior and flaky interior, and came with roasted mini potatoes and mixed vegetables (zucchini, red bell pepper, Brussels sprouts, eggplant) roasted with garlic -- such a well-rounded and wholesome dish. The roasted mini potatoes were so flavourful, and the vegetables had a nice char. I asked for the puttanesca sauce on the side, as the fish was already flavourful on its own without the sauce. But the sauce was better than I expected - it contained actual whole chunks of cherry tomatoes and olives. 2) Steamed Mixed Fish & Seafood in Tomato Sauce - This dish wasn't on the website menu, but it was on the printed menu in the restaurant. It reminded me of cioppino (Italian-American mixed seafood stew with tomato sauce, herbs, and spices). It came presented as wrapped inside aluminum tin foil, which the server then opened in front of us on the table with steam coming out. The fish was salmon, and seafood consisted of mussels and shrimps. This dish was just alright. For almost $50, there wasn't much seafood. 3) Pizza Funghi - I liked the very thin and crispy crust, and the sliced roasted mushrooms as toppings, but I wasn't a fan of the "truffled honey" they added on top of the pizza. I didn't taste any truffle, and the honey made it very sweet. Not a fan of sweet pizza. 4) SIDES: Rapini, Brussels Sprouts, Mushrooms - They got bonus points for being able to customize the sides. They didn't have asparagus that day, so they substituted it for steamed Brussels sprouts with garlic instead - which was heavenly. The Brussels sprouts weren't overcooked at all, and they were generous with the garlic (anything with extra garlic gets extra thumbs up from me). The rapini came out chopped with a side of lemon wedge. Mushrooms weren't on the menu as a side, but we asked and they were able to make a simple side of just mushrooms. Overall the vegetables got 9/10. The chef was very friendly as he came out and talked to us. The server was extremely attentive. Great service overall.

Nice local Italian restaurant that is enjoyed by us locals as well as those who come down for shows…read moreat the St Lawrence ctr for the arts and the Meridian Hall as well as sports fan here for games. They have a great stock of wines and an impressive drink list that we don't get to enjoy as we can't handle drinks these days. We do enjoy the food and the friendly service immensely tho. Lots of options for shareable apps; excellent options on pizzas and pastas; and I am always impressed with their mains (as someone that has to limit carbs, options can be limited at some Italian restos). They are also understanding of reasonable diet requests. They have gluten-free options as well. It is more of a "quiet" restaurant in terms of the clientele chatter, at least for the times I was there, so I can hear the music they play ("oldies"!!!!)
