Miss Italia receives broad praise for its pizza, with many reviewers calling it the best pizza in the province of Quebec or on the south shore, noted for a thin crust and plenty of cheese with delicious toppings like pepperoni; some critiques mention a lack of garnishes on an all dressed pie and a crust that can be rubbery, and a wood fired oven is suggested as an improvement. Delivery and takeout are the main options, with meals arriving hot and fast and couriers described as courteous, while counter staff are generally friendly and professional though one reviewer reported a rude receptionist. The dining room has not reopened after COVID, but the pizza remains top in the takeout and delivery category, and prices are viewed as matching quality with some wishing for specials. Longstanding presence in Saint Lambert is noted as part of the appeal.View restaurant profile
