Reviews of Pizzéria NO.900 describe a small, intimate spot in Old Montreal with Neapolitan style pizza, where the dough is praised for being light and chewy and the sauce bright, and many highlight ingredients like burrata, mushrooms, arancini, prosciutto and fig, as well as a gluten free crust option; the atmosphere is consistently described as warm and charming, sometimes lively or a touch noisy, and the overall vibe is inviting, with several calls that the service is friendly and attentive and meals arrive quickly when the staff are not stretched, though other visits mention slow ordering, long waits for pizzas, missteps such as cold pies or missing cheese on takeout, and a few complaints about understaffing. Price and value are seen as fair by many, with some saying the pizzas are among the best in the city or in Old Montreal, while others feel portions can be small for the price and a burrata pizza is not worth the premium. Overall, Pizzéria NO.900 comes across as a highly enjoyable pizza destination for many, offering standout dough, fresh toppings, and a welcoming ambiance, with occasional inconsistencies in speed and execution that temper the experience.View restaurant profile
