Notre chef bien-aimé Germano Mustone possède une richesse de connaissances dans l'industrie culinaire.
Après quelques années en tant que pizzaiolo new-yorkais,
Germano avait pour mission de donner à l'Ouest-de-l'Île un avant-goût de l'Italie avec une touche de New York. Il insiste sur des ingrédients frais, coupés sur commande, avec une sauce italienne authentique spécialement importée et beaucoup d'amour ! Germano et le personnel souhaitent profiter de l'occasion pour remercier la communauté de soutenir notre entreprise.
Les avis sur Cugini's Pizza s'accordent pour décrire une expérience italienne authentique, avec des pizzas préparées à partir d'ingrédients frais et d'une pâte à fermentation lente qui offre une croûte légère et croustillante, une sauce tomate riche et équilibrée et des garnitures généreuses. Le style grand-mère et les pizzas New York style reviennent fréquemment comme points forts, suscitant des saveurs nettes et une impression de cuisine faite avec amour. L'attention portée au détail et au savoir-faire se ressent à chaque bouchée, et l'ambiance chaleureuse ainsi que le service attentif alimentent un sentiment d'accueil familial. Bien que certains avis mentionnent des prix élevés ou des temps d'attente, la qualité et l'expérience sont largement considérées comme justifiant le coût et le délai. Le lieu est perçu comme une pépite du West Island, avec des options sur place ou emporter et des pizzas phares comme Cup and Char, Margherita et Americano, dont la sauce tomate, le fromage et l'harmonie pâte et garnitures font l'unanimité. Dans l'ensemble, Cugini's est vu comme l'une des meilleures pizzas de la région, attirant des clients qui viennent de loin pour goûter une pizza authentique et ressentir une ambiance italienne et conviviale.
By far the best pizza in the west island, all 6 of us were blown away on how good it was the pizza! Super friendly staff & even the owner came to see us twice to talk to us, very nice guy! Would recommend that place to anyone that wants to have a good pizza!
Cugini's pizza is simply the best. Be prepared to wait though, with the understanding that the best pizza takes time to create & is lovingly prepared just for you. So enjoy the experience! Germano the owner is very welcoming & takes the time to greet his customers, giving this very modern & unique eatery a touch of old world charm. Very pleasant & helpful staff too! I'm a lifer❤?🍕👌
We've loved Cugini's for years & have been going since it first opened on Elm. The pizza, while a bit pricey, is consistently fresh & absolutely delicious - truly some of the best around. Service has also generally been good, which is why this experience was so disappointing.
Tonight, my grandmother went to pick up pizza on a very cold evening & brought her dog with her. After picking up the order, her car wouldn't start. The roadside assistance company told her it could take 1-2 hours to help her. Cold & understandably distressed, she went back inside to ask if she could sit quietly in a corner with her dog just until I could get there (20 minutes max) so she wouldn't freeze. She fully understood that animals aren't usually allowed & wasn't looking to stay long.
Disappointingly, the owners said no. One of the employees kindly offered to let my grandmother sit in her own car while I was on my way to pick her up - & we're very grateful for that act of compassion.
While I understand policies exist, the situation left us feeling that a bit more empathy could have gone a long way, especially given the circumstances. This experience has made us second-guess returning, which is really disappointing because we've always thought of Cugini's as a warm, community-oriented place.
Absolutely fantastic! First time trying this place ! The pizza was delicious… we got the Americano & the west islander. They also provided us with some spicy oils & flavored honey, really nice of them.
The staff is super friendly, & the place is spotless !
First time but definitely not the last, keep up the great work. I will be back soon & often :)
Best pizza ever tasted! From the salad to the dessert, everything was so tasty! Great service. The chef was so nice & welcoming. Definitely recommend this place.

Great authentic pizza. Expensive but worth it. A lot of clients do takeout, I guess to have a warmer atmosphere at home & maybe have a salad -? Just pizza on the menu.
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.
