TLDR: Usual chain restaurant pizza if you just get regular pizza. Their specialty is Indian-fusion…read morepizzas. Their schtick is sesame seed crust, but you can ask for no sesame seeds. Not sure why the reviews are so bad. It's a pizza chain, on par with the likes of Domino's and Little Caesars. For what it is, it's good. I do like that it's a Canadian chain (from Saskatchewan). Red Swan is a bit more unique since it's known for its Indian-fusion pizzas. Their Butter Chicken pizza is amazing. I haven't had it at this location, but I've had it at other locations. I'd say their Indian-fusion pizzas are what sets them apart from the rest. Their regular pizzas are unremarkable (which is not a bad thing, just nothing too special), oh other than their sesame-seeded crust schtick. That being said, I got their Hawaiian pizza because it was BOGO on UberEats ($10.99) for a personal sized pizza and I like Hawaiian pizza (#TeamPineappleonPizza). This location dices their ham instead of slicing their ham like the other Kanata location near the Centrum. They bake their pizza a little more well-done and their pizza is a bit saucier. Nonetheless it was still good. I asked for no sesame seeds on the crust and I only found one rogue sesame seed on one of the pizzas, which for me was fine, since I can handle mild contamination, but I would not recommend for those with severe allergies. I ordered on the UberEats app and picked up. Service was neutral. There are a few seats to eat in, but it's mostly a takeout joint, so that's the ambience, lol. Lots of free parking in the plaza parking lot. (47)

I am very surprised that I enjoy Willy's Pizza because they do everything that I normally don't like: thick crust, too much cheese, and the most sacrilegious thing of all, toppings under the cheese!! However, for inscrutable reasons, I like the pizza at Willy's, lol. I was super hungry and learned that I would be unexpectedly having dinner by myself that evening. I was in the area, and wanted something quick to take home, so decided to try Willy's Pizza, which I had never tried before. I walked in and ask if they had any walk-in specials, and was advised that they did not. I perused the menu, and saw that they had a "Tropical Chicken" pizza with chicken, pineapples and bacon. I asked if I could substitute broccoli for the bacon and the guy said it was no problem. I got a small and it was $12.75. The wait was a bit long, maybe 30 minutes or more, but they were pretty busy, it was a Friday evening. The pizza smelled so good on my drive home! And it tasted just as good. The crust was thick, but crispy on the outside with a nice chew to it in the middle. Not soggy at all. The chicken was cut into tiny cubes, the pineapples were canned and were the small pieces (not the big rings). Broccoli pieces were also small, and really soft, but not mushy. I don't know man, I like my broccoli al dente, my pineapples fresh, and my chicken in big strips, but for some reason I liked the pizza and thought it was delicious. I can't explain it. Four stars from me. I don't even know how, lol. Willy's has 6 locations in Ottawa. This location is in a strip mall. Same strip mall as Sip Tea, and the Barley Mow. Lots of free parking in the shared parking lot.

It was on my to do list, to try this place out. Living in the states so long, finding amazing pizza in the land of tacos where I was, was tough. Lorenzo's nailed everything for me. Quality cheese ON TOP of the fresh ingredients! Great dough, zippy sauce, great toppings. I got a combo, great choice. But why, did I order a small??? Not enough. It's the type of pizza that reheats well. I had amazing service and when they knew it was my time in, they threw in 2 Garlic aoili sauces. I tried it but I'm just not a mayo person. I do love garlic though! The pizza to me, just didn't need a thing. Perfectly cooked. Needless to say, I'm in love with it and I've already raved about it to others. Anxious to try the Hawaiian next!

I got a Hot Turkey sandwich platter $13.75 and a slice of Donair pizza $4. They sell pizzas by the slice, but they are not displayed so you have to ask them what kinds they have. The day I went, if I remember correctly, they had 4 types: Cheese, Pepperoni, Bacon and Donair. Slices are $4 each or $5 with a can of pop. 2 slices is $8 or $9 with a can of pop, so no discount if you buy more. However, they do have a pickup discount, which is the equivalent amount to the taxes you would pay. So essentially if you pick up, they pay the tax :) The Hot Turkey sandwich platter was really good. It came with fries and coleslaw. I liked that the coleslaw was vinegar based and not mayo based. It was mostly cabbage with a bit of carrot. I enjoyed it. The fries were just regular fries but they were crispy and good. The sandwich had real turkey breast meat in it (can you believe that I once ordered a hot turkey sandwich and it was a deli meat turkey sandwich covered in gravy?!? Obviously not at this restaurant, lol). The bread was the regular white sandwich bread, but what really set this sandwich apart was the delicious peppery gravy. Man, that stuff is really good! The pizza was good too. They put toppings under the cheese here, which is not my preference, but I still enjoyed it. The donair was thick pieces and tasted more like sausage, but it was still good. The sauce has a distinct flavour to it, which I can't pinpoint, but I liked it. The crust was crispy and even though the crust was thicker than I usually like, I still enjoyed it. I liked that the slice came in a cute cardboard box. The platter came in an aluminum container, but the lid was styrofoam. I'm not a fan of styrofoam, I would have preferred a foil-backed cardboard lid. Service was friendly and I got my food pretty quickly. The restaurant is a strip of businesses along Carling Ave just west of Churchill Ave N. There's free parking at the back of the strip. There's a sign and you have to turn in before you actually see the strip of businesses (Georgie's, Sapporo Sushi, and a few other businesses). If you turn into the parking lot after the strip, that one actually belongs to a different strip mall (the one with Markie's Smoked Meat and Mr. Sub). There are signs indicating you can only park there if you are going to a business in that strip mall. Not sure what enforcement is like, but why chance it if there's also free parking in the proper place, right? Since there's a huge median along this part of Carling Ave, you can only access the restaurant if you are driving westbound on Carling. Georgie's has its main entrance on Carling but there's also a back entrance from the parking lot.

Simply put...AWESOME PIZZA…read more I have ordered from here a few times and I'm embarrassed to say I neglected to review each time before now, I was typically so hungry I just jumped right in... alas I digress. I have had a few different types of pizzas here, in the end my favourite is the cheese. Yup, straight cheese. Seems basic, but the flavour is outstanding and the dough ball to keep the box from sticking to the cheese is a classically delicious touch. I really like the flavour combinations of the cheese with the sauce puts many other to shame. If you are in this end of the town, give this place a shot, you won't be disappointed. I'll be back for sure.

Recently I saw they have a gluten free pizza so I have them a call to see. They offer gluten free in small and medium and they get their gluten free crusts in a thicker base so it doesn't burn and taste like cardboard. It's also cooked on its own pan, so they try to limit cross contamination as much as possible. And if you're a regular pizza eater their crust is thick, it's loaded with cheese and toppings and is an absolute delight. And their garlic dip, yum.
