Overall, reviews about Ancien Four A Pizza point to comforting, generously portioned Italian food, with wood-oven pizza and big subs that many diners praise, in a warm, casual, family-friendly setting with friendly staff. The menu is diverse and often delivers solid flavors and authentic, old-school Italian vibes, with some nights featuring lively ambiance or entertainment. On the downside, experiences vary with service and value: some readers report long waits for meals or takeout, occasional pricing or payment glitches, and regular complaints about a loud or busy environment and a sometimes imperfect ordering system, but the food quality and portions keep many coming back.
I'd like to leave a review. I don't know if they changed cooks, but the first few times we went, it was a great experience. However, we went back twice after with various people raving about the great food, but we were all disappointed both times.The last time, the orders had mistake after mistake... Some people at the table had time to finish their food before others even got theirs, we got our fries when we were almost done eating & it was clearly an old batch mixed with new & the new fries weren't even fully cooked. We were few in the restaurant as well so there shouldn't have been such delays either. When we told the owner we don't find it was really addressed very professionally. Anyways, with these experiences & the way things were handled I can't say I'd go back nor would recommend the place again.
Amaizing Subs & sandwiches! The Panini with cold cuts (not on menu by the way) was amazing & huge, the photo is of only half of the sandwich. Service was fast & excellent. Highly recommend!!
What a great discovery! Went last night & will definitely return. We shared a sub, fries & a family size pizza & everything was delicious. Service was great & the owner goes above & beyond, he sat with us for a bit & even offered us a drink which is something most places do not do, customer service by far is the best I've had in a very long time. Only downside is the music tends to get a little too loud at times so when you're seated next to the dj it's hard to have a conversation. I'm already planning my next visit here & highly recommend it, you won't be disappointed!
The food is of a high quality, delicious & simply amazing. Everything is freshly made at the restaurant. The portions are huge, the taste is off the chart. Highly recommended!!!
Tried the poutine yesterday. As I mentioned in my review, it was the best poutine I've had in the area. Figured I would try the pizza today. All I'm gonna say is I was really blown away. Literally the best pizza I've ever had. Tastes very similar to legendary pizzerias like Golden BBQ & Rotisserie Diamond. Highly recommend this restaurant, as all the food seems to be good here. This is my new go-to favourite!
Best poutine in the area. Sauce is smooth, cheese is perfect consistency & the fries are made with real potatoes. Packaging was also amazing & much better than other restaurants I order from on uber. Can't wait to try the pizza next! Highly recommend.
We had a family party here the other week, which was situated in their back room with folding chairs & tables, near their slot machine room. We had a fixed 40$ menu for adults including charcuterie, salad, the arancini & calamari were a bit too oily but still tasty. I enjoyed their pizza as it was thick & with a good amount of topping & a decent portion size. Their parmesan fries were very good as well. The service was good & quick with our drink orders. Although it felt long to get the food rolling out at the start of the night. I would recommend going with smaller group as the main seating area looked quite tight. I would go back for the comforting food.
We ordered a bunch of different dishes to try & every single dish was delicious. Highly recommend the carbonara & the Caesar salad. Cozy & warm atmosphere. The service was amazing! Will definitely be back soon!

Good food, good portion & good price. Not a fancy place but its honest. We had the Margherita , ingredients were fresh , dough is the highly . I would have preferred with real mozzarella rather than shredded cheese but thats my personal preference . That being said , I would not hesitate to recommend the place .

Je recommande
Merci à votre équipe pour l'accueil & le bon repas
If you're in Laval, Ancien du Four is the place to go, especially if you're a fan of hearty sandwiches! The Saint-Dorothée sub is huge & absolutely amazing - packed with delicious, tender steak that's perfectly seasoned. But what really sets it apart is the sauce - it's incredible & definitely one of the best parts of the sandwich. Every time I go, I have to order it. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a satisfying, flavorful meal!
