Review Summary

Reviews of Coronel describe a solid neighborhood spot with very good food and generous portions, where pizza and submarine sandwiches are frequently highlighted; while some patrons find it a bit pricey, many feel the quality justifies the cost, and takeout or delivery experiences are mixed with occasional missing drinks during delivery. The pizza earns frequent praise, with some calling it among the best in town and noting favorites like pizzaghetti, and vegetarian options are also well liked; subs made with house bread and the poutine receive positive mentions as well. Service is often described as impeccable, with fast and friendly takeout and dine-in experiences, and the ambiance is generally welcoming, though there are notes about changes after a new owner that point to inconsistent quality, burnt pizzas, and lighter toppings in takeout.
