    Margherita pizza
    Idan R.

    Category: Gourmet pizza/Italian fare. Pizza e Pazzi is a nice little spot for thin-crust stone oven pizza. Here is my overall rating: Food: 3/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 3/5 Value: 2/5 I ordered the Margherita ($19). It's a personal size pizza and not a huge bang for your buck. I opted for beef mozzarella instead of buffalo. The pizza was pretty tasty. It had a nice smoky crust. But it had a few deficiency. First of all it was way too thin at the bottom. And the sauce was way to runny. So the bottoms became completely soggy and would tear apart when you try to pick it up. Also there was too much crust, not enough cheese or sauce. Finally, the 4 basil leafs were placed before the bake and became completely dried. They should have been placed just before serving. My biggest complaint is that we ordered a bottle of water and got a small bottle that costed $8. I will say that the server was excellent. She was very professional and sweet. I wish I could score higher, but I score based on the pizza not the service. The ambiance is pretty nice. But I would recommend replacing the plastic flowers on the table with real ones. Even no flowers at all is better than plastic ones. The restaurant has more items on the menu other than pizza. I wouldn't mind giving them another shot to try their other offerings.

    Green street parking available. Came during the week. Spot opens at 4pm. I called for reservation - not sure if it's required. Quaint spot for an early bite to eat. Rigatoni alla caprese was simply delicious. The basil pesto was such a nice touch. All the ingredients complemented each other without being overpowering. Short ribs with assorted veggies. Standard. Nothing out of the ordinary. The veggies were slightly bland.

    Our last night in Toronto we decided on this place. The place was pretty empty but smells delightful looking forward to this meal. This drink the Sangria Italiana is out of this world it's a little pricey but very tasty to say the least. The food is A1! Glad we chose this place! If you're in town check them out!

    Went for the pizza because reviews said it was known for that but they were unfortunately super soggy near the centre. Seems to be too much sauce or too thing of a crust so it was quite soggy. The gnocchi was ok. Could have been chewier.

    Black paste truffle pizza and mushroom risotto
    David I.

    Incredible food, but understaffed - My family and I ordered the seafood platter, bruschetta, and Caesar salad to start as appetizers. We also ordered the pescatora, the bufala mozzarella margherita, the cowboy steak (special), the black truffle paste pizza, and the mushroom risotto as sharing mains. All in all, everything was fantastic although I would most highly recommend the seafood platter, bruschetta, and mushroom risotto. I will say that service was a little bit delayed not due to a bad server, but limited number of servers (I only saw one waitress in the entire restaurant on a Friday night). She was extremely busy, and yet continued to serve happily and as efficient as she could be. Nonetheless, a great experience.

    Calamari
    Neet D.

    We went their after around 9pm. They had a teenager's birthday party that night. So was a bit noisy that night. Overall the ambience was good and we got the street parking right outside the restaurant. Service was good. Waitress was nice and respectful. We ordered calamari and and Di parma. Calamari was god but some of the pieces were overcooked and rubbery. Di Parma was alright. The dough was nice and fresh and the toppings were flavorful as well. The the pizza got very soggy from the middle and it broke every time we tried to get the slice in our plates. I would say it was an alright experience not something exceptional. We might go back if around the neighborhood.

    LOVE THIS PIZZA PLACE. The pizza here is absolutely fantastic. Not heavy at all, and the dough is to die for. I ordered the one with prosciutto, arugula, and fresh fior de latte. Loved it! For dessert, I had the panda cotta with fresh berry jam. Absolutely perfect. Prices were fair and service was excellent. I'll definitely be returning!

    Crispy calamari

    This place is as authentic as it gets for Italian Pizza in Toronto. To be honest I would avoid pizzerias here until I discovered Pizza e pazzi. I have been to the Wychwood location numerous times and I have never been disappointed. Recently I visited their Corso Italia place with a group of pizza lovers. I had high expectations and let's say they delivered on every bit except the service. The food was fantastic. I ordered the Diavola as usual. This pizza never fails me. Love the spicy salami and basil with a drizzle of spicy olive oil on top! We also had the crispy calamari appetizer to share. While not the best, it was well cooked and seasoned. All of us were very satisfied at the end of our meal. Then Lambert ordered the nutella dessert to share. It was amazing. Fried dough drizzled with generous amounts of nutella and powdered sugar. Every bite was heavenly. I was really full but I couldn't stop eating it. All in all a great experience. I wouldn't hesitate to come back with a group again!

    Pizza Margherita
    Mish S.

    This Neapolitan Pizzeria deserves its time to shine in the Toronto VERO Pizza limelight! I always go for the classic, Margherita with bufala mozzarella and every time it's pure pleasure in my mouth! The staff is great, all of our servers have spoken Italian and when you phone a reservation they make you smile with their "Ciao Bella" and "Grazie Bella" remarks! They used to have a frizzantino (non-sweet) red wine, Gragnano which is the only wine anyone should ever drink with pizza (otherwise choose beer) and I wish they could bring it back I hear they opened a new Jewish Italian, Roman pasta place, will have to give it a try! If you're jonesing for an excellent VERO Neapolitan pizza... Pizza e Pazzi delivers! Grazie Mille! Buonissimo!

    I've been going to this restaurant off and on since it opened. Their menu has changed a bit from time to time but they stay pretty consistent. As far as pizza goes this place makes what they call certified Neapolitan pizza. That is they use the methods and ingredients that are used in the official pizza from Napoli. That being said I've had many of their different pizzas both ordered, sampled, shared with others etc. I've had maybe half of each the pizza with sauce (rosso=red) or without (blanco) and they really make it as you would expect if you had something to compare it to. I've never been to Napoli so I can't compare it to the "real thing" but I can say that their food is very good regardless. They make good food and they happen to be authentic. I particularly enjoy the tuna salad as a starter which you can share because it's a big serving as well as the fried dough with nutella as a dessert. I was just there yesterday and the menu is less explanatory than it used to be because the descriptions are harder to understand for a layperson non-Italian like myself but for what it's worth their product is a very good product. The service every time I've ever been has been decent to great. I can't say I've ever had a bad experience there as far as service goes but the food it special that's for sure.

    Incredible buffalatta with parma prosciutto. If this is offered as a special app., make sure there is four of you!
    Brian J.

    As good as it gets for neapolitan pizza, and maybe, Toronto's best. The other items we gave here, calamari, and a spectacular buffalatta and parma appetizer have also been terrific. Homemade foccacia with three toppings provide a nice start to the meal. All this in a very fine looking restaurant, with lots of character. Preventing a five star review is the service. We've been twice and the first time, service was fine, the second time it came with attitude and a "i'll do it my way" kind of thing", bordering on rudeness. After we clearly made it aware that we wouldn't take this kind if thing with our attitude, it improved, but still not great. Sorry Pizza e pazzi...but you need to improve the attitude with some of your people. You're food and restaurant are amazing, this doesn't need to ruin it.

    Never would I think that Canada has pizza that rivals New York but was proven wrong when visiting…read morethis spot. The line was short during a late lunch on a weekday, and if we had planned better, we would have ordered ahead because you can skip the line. The service was a bit slow; we were thinking they could make so much more money if they just had a New Yorker taking orders, but it was worth the wait for some piping hot, crispy crust. We got a few slices; mushroom blanco (we tasted some truffle oil), a vodka one (all pizza should be made with this sauce instead), a marg and a pepperoni. All the spots were taken outside so we walked 2 minutes to a park and crushed our pieces there and saw a number of others so the same. We brought our empty pizza box back to patio outside the restaurant where they have a designated container for them.

    Would come here more often and would've given 5 stars if it wasn't for the long wait time outdoors…read more Parking is also hard to find nearby. We waited for 45 mins on a Friday evening, and ended up getting a parking ticket that was issued 10 mins before we were leaving. But I guess their set up does live up to the "neighborhood pizza" vibe. Their pizza is the best though and I'm not much of a pizza girl. My favourite is the burrata marinara because I find it so unique. The burrata is creamy and go so well against the crispness of the pizza. The vodka slice had the most insane cheese pull and I love that it doesn't have a strong tomato/sour taste. Next time we'll probably order ahead and just get a box!

    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"!!!!)
