Our beloved chef Germano Mustone has a wealth of knowledge in the culinary industry.
After quite some time as a New York pizza chef,
Germano was on a mission to give the West Island a taste of Italy with a touch of New York. He insists on fresh, cut to order ingredients, with specially imported authentic Italian sauce and lots of love! Germano and staff want to take the opportunity to thank the community for supporting our business.
It’s a pleasure to serve you all!

The best New York-style pizza in town authentic, high-quality ingredients, & an amazing staff. Truly the real thing.

Cugini's Pizza is easily one of the best gourmet additions to Pierrefonds & Kirkland. Since moving from Beaconsfield, this spot has completely elevated the local pizza scene. The moment you walk in, you can smell the difference. Fresh basil, bubbling cheese, quality olive oil, & the unmistakable aroma of a perfectly charred crust set the tone right away. Every pizza is made with care, tradition, & real passion, & you can sense it before the first bite even reaches the table.
The dough, sauce, & toppings taste exceptionally fresh, & the thin crunchy crust has become a favourite throughout the West Island. Many people, myself included, consider Cugini's the best pizza in the area. The prices are higher than what you find at basic corner pizza shops, but the quality more than justifies it. This is gourmet pizza done the right way.
Germano, the owner, adds a personal touch that shapes the entire experience. He takes pride in every detail, from selecting ingredients to creating a warm & welcoming atmosphere. The decor adds to the charm, with bold Stikki Peaches artwork that gives the space a colourful & creative feel while still keeping the comfort of a neighbourhood restaurant.
The menu is a standout. Their twenty four hour dough develops deep flavour & creates the perfect balance of chew & crunch. Both the classic round pizzas & the Grandma style square pies are must tries. The Pepperoni, Americano, Three Cheese, Il Bianco, & Margherita all showcase fresh ingredients that shine from the first bite. The Grandma square pizzas, especially the Cup & Char version with crispy pepperoni, ricotta, hot honey, & basil, are unforgettable.
Their specialty pizzas show real skill & imagination. Customer favourites include the Vesuvio with bold meaty flavour, the Napolitano with anchovies & fresh herbs, the Rapini with richness & a touch of bitterness, the Portofino with smoky & sweet notes, the West Islander with fresh & creamy toppings, the D.D.O. with deep earthy flavours, the Truffle with indulgent aroma, & the Toscana with a bright & balanced finish. Every pizza feels thoughtful & elevated.
I have eaten pizza in many cities, including Texas, New York, & Toronto. Cugini's is the best pizza I have had in a long time. Pierrefonds & Kirkland truly gained a gem. This is the kind of place you think about well after the meal is over.
Cugini's also offers take home pizza kits, fresh dough, & their house made sauces, which makes it easy to bring their amazing flavours into your own kitchen.

Amazing place to grab a slice or sit down with the family for dinner. Every time I take a bite, it just gets better & better. It's no surprise this place is a hit, since the owner is a true representation of the restaurant & its brand. His pride in the shop shows in every detail, from the fresh, high-quality ingredients to the welcoming atmosphere. As a devoted Habs fan, he brings the same loyalty & passion to his pizzeria, & it shows.

Owner gave us free slices of the granny pizza! Fresh ingredients, & every pizza was fantastic. Probably one of the best pizza doughs & sauce I've had.
Also hot honey & truffle honey at the table which is a really nice touch.

Location: On the West Island. They have a small parking lot that could be busy on weekdays.
The place: This is more of a take-out spot but they do have a few tables if you want to dine in. As someone who's been documenting street art for a while now, I love that Stikki Peaches left his mark on the place (including in the toilettes, where you'll find a paste-up designed by his kid, Stella). Good music, chill vibes.
The goods: If I'm honest, I was keen to try the Stikki Pizza before it disappears in mid-November 😄. My friend ordered the West Island, I think. I have nothing negative to say about their pizza - it's delicious! The crust is thin but perfect (not hard or chewy - just... good), the pizza sauce is great - not acidic at all, & in my case, the limited edition pizza was amazing. I would have liked a bit more pancetta on it but besides that, YUM! My friend also enjoyed her pizza. We both got a cannoli & it was authentically tasty. I don't think you can go wrong with any of their selections.
Service: The first person who served us was rather indifferent & seemed impatient when my friend couldn't decide what to order. Let's just say that I didn't get friendly vibes. That said, we had a completely different experience with'J' (who doesn't want to be called out) - she is super friendly, chatty & funny & we felt right at home with her.
Price point: It ain't cheap - my pizza was $34 which admittedly, is steep for a 12' pizza. That said, you're getting a freshly-made pie with what seemed to be fresh ingredients so I think it's OK to treat yourself once in a while, eh?
I recommend this place (& I vote for the permanent addition of the Stikki pizza to the menu!).

Great pizza! The crust was perfectly baked & the toppings well balanced. A solid pizza with great taste & fresh ingredients. The dough is light & crispy. This is a must-visit for anyone who loves authentic pizza.
Nour
Wow! The pizzas here are next level. Every dish was incredibly fresh, bursting with flavor, & clearly made with the highest-quality ingredients. The owner is truly one of a kind. Very respectful, friendly, passionate about his restaurant & the food. You can feel the love & pride that goes into everything he does. The staff gives impeccable service & are genuinely invested in making sure every guest has an unforgettable experience. Will definitely become regular clients there.

Cugini's prepared an awesome spread for my niece's Prom. Germano (the owner & chef) selects his ingredients himself & food is always so fresh & amazingly delicious!!
Thanks for making Amanda's Prom Day so special!!
Alex
Don't expect to just eat good pizza. It's delicious food that's prepared with 1st grade ingredients. Each pizza has It's own unique flavor. If you eat there for the 1st time, you will want to try the other pizzas right away.
You will not find anything else like Cugini's.
Paul
It's good pizza, the best I've had in the West Island. I find the prices are a tad high. I can appreciate good, fresh ingredients. I just can't justify paying $50 for a pizza regularly, it's more for special occasions. I wish it was cheaper, I would order more often. It does take a while if you order for delivery, be prepared to give them at least an hour to make it.
John
Best pizza with a crust like no other.
Cooked to perfection with the freshest ingredients.
William

Nicole
Really great spot, incredible pizza from the crust to the sauce. Real fresh ingredients. The cherry on top of the amazing food was the owner & the service at Cuggini's.
Can't wait to come back!
Martine
Wow the pizza is absolutely delicious. Chef Germano was so kind to greet us & explained his slow rising crust & the effects on gluten intolerance… he really did "have me at pizza"! The finest of the ingredients make the pizza out of this world. Thank you such I can't wait to taste the baguette!
