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.
Don't get me wrong. I only rate a 4 star not because the food was bad. the food was wonderful, the energy wonderful, I went on a Thursday & they take good care of my wife very well as they did me. Its just service is on the slow side each visit. So I'm thinking they may have a lot of deliveries that slows up production on . The portions are fantastic & you have to have the meatballs - my compliments to the chef. I also had the pizza with the prochiutto & buffala cheese - its the go to pizza. this place is now the pizza place I recomend & my new go to place. The question below is how long did i wait for the table, I did not wait. they also have a nice terrance & music. You are the Best kept secret in Ste-Dorothe
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 .
Très bon restaurant italien, nourriture de première qualité, plats italien, avec un chanteur sur place pour une belle ambiance, passé une très belle soirée accompagnée de la famille pour une anniversaire bien réussie
The Food was amazing!!!!
The Owner is a true gentleman & the staff are very professional.
We had a hard time to finishing the food.
They are very generous with their portions.
Definitely coming back !!!!
Cheers 🍻

Nous avons decidé d'aller essayer leurs sous-marins pain pizza spécial Sté-Dorothée
On a pas été déçu très bon & ils sont bien garnis en viande j'ai pris un 7´´ j'ai pas été capable de tout manger & mon mari aussi très satisfait
Je recommande
Merci à votre équipe pour l'accueil & le bon repas
Première visite. Soirée très achalandée ce qui a fait qu'il a fallu attendre 1 heure avant de recevoir l'entrée (saucisse italienne & rapinis). La pizza très bonne aussi, l'accueil très bon mais l'attente pour obtenir la nourriture a été horrible! …on va essayer d'y aller en semaine pour avoir un meilleur service, sinon, on devra laisser de côté ce choix….en plus, ce n'est pas donné….
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!
Outstanding, family run business, ancien four a pizza, when you arrive they treat you like family. Welcoming you into there house. & kitchen. Watching the staff cook was like Watching a television show, the food is outstanding.
Food was not bad but the service was horrible I didn't even get water they didn't come to our table at all & when you call them they pretend they don't see you & walk away it took them one hour to bring out our food they had two girls folding pizza boxes instead of attending to the tables even though the food was not bad I would never go back there again like I said service was bad they were only attentive when it was time to pay to make sure they got a pleasant tip . I give zero for service they need to work on this big time .
