Reviews portray Pizzeria Magpie as a place with delicious pizza and daily specials that land well, featuring wood fired crusts, fresh ingredients, and creative toppings that make each visit feel special. The atmosphere is warm and cozy with friendly service and good wines and cocktails that elevate the evening. Standout items like meatballs, mortadella, and inventive pies are frequently mentioned, while some guests note changes to the dough that affected texture or flavor. A few experiences note slower service during peak times, but hospitality and overall quality remain highly regarded. Celebrations and gatherings with friends are often described as memorable, and many say they will return to explore more of the menu. There are occasional comments about temperature or timing issues and a desire for a bit more variety, yet the pizza and experience are consistently praised, and gluten-free options are regarded by some as among the best they've had.
Great ambiance, friendly staff. Although the waiter brought our beer cans in our glasses, I wouldn't think the bottom of the can is clean enough to be putting inside the glass. We had to wipe our glasses. Our meatballs were a bit too raw in the middle, we tried to eat it, but it was getting unappetizing. We got the burrata salad, on the menu (on the wall above the kitchen), it didnt mention there were nuts in the dish & we came across some, our waiter had to ask several people what type of nut it was, my partner is allergic to almonds so it was a concern, they were cashews. Focaccia was nice.
we had a great time with great drinks & even better pizza. Our selections were on both extremes. A simple but delicious Margherita pizza featuring a fat burrata in the center & the more elaborate pizza of the day: a fantastic, cheesy, ranch buffalo chicken pie. The superior quality of both these pizzas made us wish we had more, & we can't wait to go back to try the rest of the menu. For dessert, we had an incredible citrus ricotta cheesecake that we're still dreaming of. It was even better than it looked. We were given a lollipop with our bill, & as someone who's gotten too old to receive one from the doctor when they get a vaccination, I really appreciated that. (It was lime, too! My favourite. 😊)

Très bonnes pizza 🍕, au niveau du tiramisu je ne l'ai pas trouvé à mon goût mais comme on dit chacun ses goûts. L'ambiance est vraiment sympa & le personnel également. Par contre au niveau de l'organisation, ce n'est pas au top. On avait réservé une table & on a dû attendre 30 minutes pour pouvoir s'installer à notre table car il y avait du monde. Si jamais vous êtes un petit groupe ne vous fiez pas à l'heure de réservation surtout en fin de soirée. Nous nous avons eu une erreur sur notre réservation de 19h30 alors cette dernière a été décalé à 21h. Mise à part ces petites erreurs qui font parties des aléas de la vie nous avons passé une bonne soirée.
Déception de ne pas pouvoir entrer au chaud à 17h15 bien que je sache que le début du service soit à 17h30. Nous étions deux personnes de plus de 70 ans & il y avait également une couple avec un enfant de moins de deux ans à attendre au froid dehors. Nous aurions apprécié pouvoir juste prendre place à notre table réservée & attendre le début du service à17h30. Ça fait vraiment fonctionnaire d'ouvrir à 17h30 pile & pas trop soucieux du service à la clientèle! Cependant la nouvelle pizza végétarienne avec entre autre brie, aïoli & patates douces m'a vite fait retrouver mon sourire.
Bonne pizzeria de quartier. On y retrouve l'authenticité des pizza napolitaine avec une twist locale. Menu varié pour plaire à tous. J'ai pris la pizza à la mortadelle, très savoureuse mais trop mince à mon gout, elle n'avait aucun tonus & ne pouvait être prise.
They seem to have changed the chef & their food is phenomenal. Meatballs were great, the paccheri bolognese was exceptional & the pizza dough & sauce were absolutely fantastic. Bravo chef. The service was quick, friendly & professional. Looking forward to the next time.

Très bonne expérience, délicieuse pizza/ cocktail, & personnel HORS DU COMMUN (Clara & Tess étaient bien à notre écoute & très souriantes). En revanche, le tiramisu m'a déçu, je pense que cela doit aussi venir du plat pas assez profond. Mais overall GÉNIALISSIME
Although the waitress was clearly not wanting to be there, the food was great enough to over power that. After a few disappointing visits they have really stepped up. One of the best pizzas in town

Bonne salade, mais pizza pas cuite au milieu, fromage non fondu. Tres bruyant, espace insuffisant entre les tables qui sont collées les unes sur les autres.
Great pizza place that opened in 2010 & makes artisanal wood-fire pizza in the Mile-End. The crust is amazing & loved the tomato sauce that they use, a little on the tangy side but excellent in my opinion. Their pastas are great & cocktail are fire! Would absolutely recommend
