Love at first bite! I tell ya, nothing makes me happier than a top notch mom & pop joint…read more We popped into Amore Pizza tonight for the first time to pick up supper after a fun filled afternoon at the Woodlands splash park. Amore Pizza replaced Grandin Pizza and opened its doors 3 weeks ago. Lawrence, the owner, and his wife are longtime St. Albertans familiar with the neighborhood. They were both super friendly and personable. We decided to pop home during the 30 minute wait but could have easily stayed and chatted more. We decided to bring home a super Donair with cheese (deseeded fresh jalapeños, homemade Donair sauce, and house prepped meat), an XL pepperoni & pineapple, and an XL feta kalamata pizza. The restaurant is small - a delivery and to go kind of place. They've made it their own with fresh paint and an homage to Uncle Dean if you catch my drift ;-) The deets: The Donair was superb and very fresh tasting. In fact all their food was very fresh tasting. Nothing was drenched in sauce. It's like they but quality ingredients and want each flavour to stand out on it's own. I had requested jalapeños or hot sauce and was pleasant surprised to find fresh and deseeded jalapeños in the Donair - yum! The pizza also had a rather indescribable way of tasting super fresh! The pepperoni was quality and the kalamata olives were a plenty! The crust was chewy goodness cooked to perfection. The tomato sauce tasted clean and fresh. This definitely is not a place with loads of seasoning and spice - just clean and fresh goodness. My only suggestion would be to do a little something to the crust to give it some pizazz. Maybe brush with a garlic oil? Not quite sure, just found that I was wishing the crust had a little kick. Also, there was a surprise Greek salad with our meal. Our family was impressed at the amount of toppings throughout the salad and the lightness to it. Again, each individual flavour stood out! The house Greek dressing was smooth and gentle contrasted against the sharp red onions, feta, red peppers, cucumbers, and kalamata olives. If I were allowed to do 4.5 stars I would because I just need the crust to have a little something extra but Lawrence and his Mrs. Definitely bring it up to a 5 star review! They offer 10% off for pick up, free delivery over $20, and pizza by the dulce at lunch time. Prices were perfect for a meal to bring home (just shy of $40) with plenty of leftovers for the kiddos' lunches tomorrow! We will DEFINITELY be back!

Hook, like, sinker... I am stuck on Red Swan…read more Now first off, I'm not a HUGE pizza eater. I generally find pizza greasy and heavy feeling so when a new joint came into town I wasn't overly excited despite hearing rave reviews on the local chat page. Finally I decided to give them a try and man was I blown away. They are not your typical cookie cutter pizza shop... nor do they serve typical toppings. Think spicy butter chicken, tikka, honey garlic chicken (our fave), cilantro chicken, butter paneer! Sure I miss a few of my regular toppings here but we keep coming back - almost weekly and my PICKY kids love it here! We often order the 3 pizza special (MTW only) or the lunchtime personal pizza and can of pop special. We've tried over a dozen pizzas here and the staple go to order for us is the picante with the pepperoni on top (not under the cheese) and the HONEY GARLIC CHICKEN (to die for). And their crust... oh em gee... light, warm, fluffy - soooo good! We usually order online and it's ready in 20-25 minutes! Fast, fresh, never greasy or heavy feeling! Two thumbs way up!

The pizzas arrived almost cold and had to be heated up in the microwave.

Was falling apart when I had to add my own veg inside because I only found 1 tomato and very little onion, plus added my own sauce to try and correct a good donair. Oh and the extra sweet sauce I paid for was dry as hell. No sauce what so ever. WTF. This is probably the worst donair I have ever eaten, the last bit of hope is the meat was juicy, big and tender.

We had a donair pizza and the kids had a half pepperoni/half pineapple split. The crust was nice and not greasy, and they put on a generous amount of toppings. While the kids weren't wild about their french fries (actually, potato wedges), I was different in that they were more akin to an old fashioned delicatessen type of wedge. My only beef is that the fries could have used some more seasoning, be it salt or something more unique, that could be used as a house signature seasoning. I wish Saint City Pizzeria all best in the future and I will be back.

I worked here for 11 months, and I can honestly say it was the worst work experience of my life. These are my reasons as to why this business should be shut down , and why Peter (the owner) is unfit to own and run it. The way Peter treats the young girls that work there is disgusting. He uses profane language against them, insults them, has caused panic attacks and has brought them to tears many times. " I didn't hire you for your brains" "If I knew you three were coming in tonight, I would have shot myself" " F*cking idiot" Just a few of his phrases. On a few of his rants, he grabbed my upper arm tightly and got in my face. Sexual harassment coming from his friends and male employees was common as well. "I want your legs behind my ears" " Nice ass" So on and so forth. The girls are not paid time and a half for working statutory holidays. Peter serves alcohol illegally. Marijuana is sold in the kitchen. The staff smoke cigarettes in the kitchen near closing time. Employees drink beer while preparing food. Sanitation, cleanliness, and adhering to allergies is also an issue. The menus states that they serve gluten free pizza, though they bake the pizzas in the same oven, simply wipe off the knife and board carelessly with the cloth they keep on the apron ties. For people with severe gluten allergies, this could cause health complications. I have personally seen an employee put fresh tomatoes on a pizza, lick his fingers, and continue with the tomatos. Not one cooks wear beard nets, hair nets, or gloves. Disrespect toward female customers was common as well. Sexual slurs were used constantly in reference to mothers. While talking to his friend, Peter referred to a group of mothers as a "gold mine". His friend said "aren't you married?" Peter smirked and shrugged his shoulders. Peter has his good moments. I think he means well but his temper is horrible. The good does not come anywhere near to outweighing the bad. I can honestly say it was quite scary coming into work and not knowing if I was going to be screamed at. I quit in October of 2017 and was not planning to leave a review. The thing that changed my mind was the shock and outrage that came from the people I told about my experience working at Nitza's. read more

I used to work there, and it was a horrible experience. They do not give us breaks even when we work 8 hour shifts. They do not let us keep our tips, they only give us $0.50 an hour (for tips) when people give as high as $20 tips sometimes. I would get plenty of tips when I worked however at the end of the moth I only got to keep about $30 when I could possibly make that in one night. They smoke in the back of the restaurant at the end of the night when the boss is not there. They sexually harass the girls who work there by making jokes, telling them things etc. The boss physically, and mentally abuses the girls, he punches them in the arms, and he yells at them all the time, over silly little mistakes. And when a customer stands up for us, he will yell at the customer and kick them out of the restaurant, I witnessed it once. In front of everyone, he yelled at a girl for a tiny mistake and a customer did not appreciate that he was yelling and making fun of her and he stood up for her and the boss told him "get the *beep* out of the restaurant and don't tell me how to run my business!" etc. He is not a good man. Also they have no liquor license, but they still give out liquor... illegally.... When I worked a stat holiday, I would not get paid time and a half. They are cheap asses who try to make everything they do with their money a shortcut so that they don't have to pay everyone what the deserve. There are some good people who work there but altogether it is an awful place to work and I don't think anyone should buy the food there because it shows that you support it because it makes them think that it is okay to do those things. It is not okay. None of that is okay. And if it makes you feel any better, he keeps what he wants out of the stollery box and gives what he feels like, so you might think you are donating to the stollery, however your are donating to peters pocket... it does not all go to the stollery.... all lies! read more

I worked here for 3 years, it was my first job. I wouldn't recommend anyone to even step foot in either location, wye road, emerald hills or st albert. All owned by peter. I will say i was one of their best employees and all i got was shoved to another location after being sexually assaulted by the manager SAM at the wye road location. i've seen first hand many accounts of workplace sexual harrasment, to me and my female co workers, we feel unsafe and uncomfortable at work. not just this but peter treats his employees like robots just made to work for him as he sits on his ass gambling my tips away and bossing us around. I could write a book as to why this place should be shut down but i'm done wasting my energy with this shithole. read more

My friend ordered a pizza from this location then, 5 mins later was called into work and could not get the pizza. So she called and cancelled her pizza, the girl that answered was understanding and said it wasn't a problem. Not even a minute later the owner called my friend and started yelling at her and harassing her over the phone. He filled up her voicemail box with profanity and derogatory comments as he threatened her for not picking up the pizza that she cancelled. My friend had to block FOUR different number that he was calling her from. The owner of this place is crazy, unprofessional and any pizza I've had from This place has been as greasy as the owners business tactics. read more

Weak business, Pizza tastes basic and honestly very costly for nothing at all. Business owner likes to yell and make racist remarks at customers and employees when chaos or a problem rises. Seen various accounts of drug use, open liquor (without licence) and even failure to follow simple labor laws taking place. Don't go to this place, literally hot and ready is 100% better than this garbage business. read more

Ordered 4 pizzas which came out pretty fast within 10 mi of ordering. Fast and friendly service. The pizzas were alright. There were minimal toppings and some of the flavours were not even palatable. I couldn't tell there was lemon garlic shrimp in one pizza and the Philly cheese steak had hardly any meat so it just tasted like a cheese pizza. Although the butter chicken pizza was by far the best out of all 4. They all were dry and had minimal cheese and toppings and it was mostly sesame seed crust... The uniqueness of this place is the crust has sesame seeds baked on which gives it a unique flavour which actually tasted good. Overall. Seemed pretty decent in offerings for pizza. But it was a bit too dry for me to come back again. Alright if you want to try different toppings which are not available at most other places.
