Pizza St Max is described as a neighbourhood staple in Laval, with strong praise for the pizza quality, tasty poutine, large and affordable portions, and overall good value that appeals to locals and students alike; the place is often noted for friendly staff and a welcoming takeout focused vibe that helps keep prices low. However, some experiences mention order mixups and pickup delays, and the dine-in experience may feel secondary to takeout, with cleanliness not always up to the same standard. Crowds of students and nearby noise can make the atmosphere lively and sometimes loud, and hours can be limited with early closing. Drink pricing quirks and a perceived emphasis on quick service rather than a full dine-in ambiance are also mentioned, but the consensus remains that the pizza and value are strong draws and many would recommend it as a go-to spot.
After many years as a pizza lover, I am really impressed with the quality of pizza at St max.
Been using this place for a while now & they mess up a lot.
Just yesterday I placed an order & was told will be ready in 30 minutes, when I got there 45 minutes later, the guy asked me what was the order & said it'll be ready soon, we had a rush!
Not the first time something like this happens here.

Greatest pizza in the sector. Highly recommended. Not too fond of the crowd attracted by the dépanneur next door, but it is not the restaurant's fault.
Pizza slices are very good, big & affordable. The combo is very affordable as well & the portion for the fries/poutine is huge. Halal as well. The only part that is lacking is that the restaurant closes early. Otherwise worth the stop.
En tant qu'amateur de poutine, franchement, je peux dire que c'est dans le top 3 des meilleurs poutines que j'ai mangé de toute ma vie! Mais il n'y a pas que la poutine qui est bonne, ah ça non! Les pizza sont extrêmement bonnes avec une croute délicieuse sans parler du goût exquis de leur fromage fondant qui passe parfaitement dans la bouche! Ma préféré c'est la mexicaine je l'a recommande fortement. Un point bonus que je leur accorde c'est le fait que ce soit halal! Donc pour les musulmans ne vous inquiétez pas. Les prix sont notamment très abordable, 8,50$ pour une poutine moyenne (qui est leur plus grande taille) est très bien je trouve, ailleurs on pourrait trouver la même poutine mais pour 2 fois plus cher alors moi je dis oui! Le seul problème je dirais c'est leur service à la clientèle qui est d'une qualité très moyenne mais comme le restaurant est situé dans un quartier un peu pauvre & que leurs employés sont jeune je peux comprendre ça. 9/10 je vous recommande très fortement d'y alle
