Reviews portray Pan Américan Pizza as a place where the pizza quality remains a standout even as the vibe has shifted under a new model, with pan pizzas that are bold, flavorful and creatively topped, from pepperoni and mushroom to riffs like soupe à l'oignon pizza and burrata combos. The service model now emphasizes paying up front, minimal in-person service, and no alcohol, with meals served on plastic trays and a more casual, fast-food feel that some describe as less like a traditional restaurant and more like a neighborhood hangout. The terrace and street setting earn praise for ambiance in good weather, though space is limited and the overall experience can feel uneven depending on who is serving. While the pizza itself is repeatedly praised, some reviews note oiliness, uneven crust texture, or burnt pepperoni, and there are calls to bring back vegan cheese and more generous portions. Beyond pizza, croquettes, fries and salads receive strong marks, and many readers highlight attentive staff and a welcoming, lively atmosphere even if the format is different from before. Taken together, Pan Américan Pizza appears as a bold, crowd-pleasing spot for casual meals and groups seeking inventive pies and a fun vibe, with the caveat that it may not suit those seeking a classic sit-down dining experience or a romantic date night.
Charming little neighbourhood restaurant. The pizza is delicious & they have a small but very good craft beer selection. If you want to try deep dish pizza with a twist, this is the place! Great service too.
Went for work lunch. The place was quiet that day so it was easy to enjoy the space with the plants. Our server was nice, gave all the infos, was patient. We had a good time & our bellies were full & happy!
Ma famille & moi on en raffole! C'est une expérience! Tous les éléments clefs sont réunis: belle ambiance, menu juste assez complet, des plats qu'on penserait « classique, mais avec des recettes originales & audacieuse. On est ressorti avec une petite facture de 52$ (taxes incluses) pour 2 pizzas, une frite, une bière. C'est rare aujourd'hui!
Quelle belle expérience! J'y suis allée avec mes filles & dès l'arrivée nous avons chaleureusement été accueillies. Le menu est simple, la cuisine est sans prétention, mais succulente. Je recommande fortement, mais comme l'espace est exigu, je conseille de réserver.
From the minute we walked in, this place is a vibe. Everyone is very nice, the staff was so amazing & the food was even better! We had the Caesar Salad & Big Mac Fries to start & they were both out of this world! Then we got the pepperoni pizza & it was delicious! We ended the meal with some amazing desserts the Tiramisu cup & Nanaimo bar..again delicious! We also had the pleasure of meeting the owner, & he was the nicest guy ever, no wonder this place was packed! We will def be returning :)

Aujourd'hui, j'ai décidé de faire plaisir à mon mari & l'amener manger la pizza du chef Dany St-Pierre. Alors, nous sommes partis de Varennes pour le resto dans le Mile-End. Nous avons été sous le charme. Moi, qui a l'habitude de partager la pizza avec mon mari, je ne l'ai pas fait car c'était une pizza 6 po. mais sincèrement avec cette garniture d'aliments de grandes qualités & très généreuse, on aurais pu la partager. Malheureusement, je n'aurais pas eu un lunch à rapporter. Aussi, nous avons partagés une salade césar, vraiment délicieuse. Le service est très courtois & le chef est présent & rencontre les gens, un gros plusss pour nous. On était très à l'aise. Quand on y retournera je prendrai tout de même une pizza à moi ne serait-ce que pour prolonger le plaisir à la maison. Merci à toute l'équipe du resto.
