Overall, Pizzeria Zac is regarded as among the best vegan or plant based pizza options in Montreal, delivering consistent quality, great flavors, and a dedicated following.
The BEST vegan pizza I have ever tasted! Super creative, tasty, & well balanced topping combinations. You won't even notice it's vegan, it's that good. Extremely friendly & warm customer service. Loved the vibe & music playing on the vinyl record player too. Definitely coming back here whenever I am in the city. This is a must visit if you're in the area!
Excellent thin-crust vegan pizza, for a great price. Personal size pizzas (10-inch) are only 13$ during their lunch special! I had the Bloom Pizza, which came with a white sauce topped with onions, mushrooms, basil, chili flakes, & a vegan "honey" drizzle made by the local brand Bloom. It was delicious; the presentation, flavors, & textures were great. Indoor seating is quite limited (only 2 tables), & it can get quite busy at times, so it's probably more suited for take-out. However, I still enjoyed my experience dining in. I'd definitely love to come back to try their other pizzas!
What a surprise ! (Review From a None Vegan) Introduction: First, I would like to start this meticulous review, by saying that I am no way near vegan. I eat meat for a living, & living by the meat. I eat meat to survive, & meat keeps me alive. You get the picture 🥩. I never believed that vegan designs can replace the taste of meat, especially after trying a few "Vegan" dishes. However, I was always supportive of the "Real Objective" behind veganism; protecting animals. Plot : On a Thursday night, while having one of those deep intellectual 3am conservation with a friend, he suggested me to come try this "well-reviewed authentic vegan pizzeria" after I was complaining that my Pizza Pizza order was disastrously horrific (They forgot my fries, my drinks, & the pizza tasted like cardboard. No one likes to pay for "shift food" right?) I told him, I was never a big fan of veganism, but I'd give it a shot. So I decided to go to the Saturday. AS AN INTELLECTUAL PERSON, I didn't go there excepting a life-changing experience. Neither expecting to be fulled-up like a garbage bag on trash day, like I'm used to feel with fast food. I was going there with the mentality of trying a new culinary experience, a new type of food, to let myself enjoy the moment & to not compare their vegan pizza with a fat-jacked, thick-wicked, Domino's Pizza. Review : - Atmosphere (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐) : 1. Family Friendly : I went there with my family (my wife & my newborn), we got welcomed with a nice vibe, between the superb music playlist (not too loud, not too low) & the vibrant handmade decoration, we sat on a CLEAN table & starting looking at the Menu. 2. Staff : We got welcomed by a lovely cashier named Jahnye, who looks imposing by his stature, but makes you feel like home. For a first time, he suggested us to try "Le Mile End"; because it was their most popular pizza. We also had the chance to meet the chef (pardon me my darling, I forgot your name), who came down to greet us regardless of her shy & introvert nature. A gesture we really appreciate. 3. Decor : The interior design is quite unique. There are a lot of hand-drawn decorations from really talented people. Music is pleasant, relaxing, & relatable ! There is a vinyl near the tables. It's a cool thing to see, but scary to touch. Tables don't shake, ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Food (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐) 1. Order: Our final order was a : - "Le Mile End" (14" Grande)/ 23$ - 2 canned soft drinks / 2x2$ - Pain à l'ail (Garlic Bread) / 8$ - 2 Cinnamon Buns (Not on Menu) / 2x2$ Total : 45$ tax included + 10$ tip = 55$ This order is well enough for 2 people. Fully rounded & recommended. You have the main dish "Le Mile End", sided by a soft drink to please my diabetes, garlic bread to please my Miss, & the Cinnamon buns, because they were testing a new recipe. $55 might sound a lot, but hold on & think about it this way. Full excellent meal for $27.5 per person tax & tips included for such a good quality meal is a perfect price. If you're by yourself, you can take the "Petite Format 10" " for 14$, a soft drink for 2$ & a cinnamon bun if they have it for 2$, that's 20$ for a full meal. Cheaper than an Amir/Boustan plate (without any drink or dessert) for a better quality combo. 2. Quality : Quality is amazing, you eat in a gourmet without paying like a gourmet ! We have 3 favourites : a. Pin nuts on the pizza. It made me go back to my childhood. My mom used to cook with pin nuts. b. Cheese was really nice in the mouth. It has a special texture that I like, not too sticky & not sloppy ! c. Pesto Sauce was immaculate. My Miss & I fell in love with it. Suggestions : 1. Change your lights to be more visible 2. Create a combo special including pizza-drink-dessert bun for example (No more characters to continue my review : 5⭐ )
Fantastic vegan pizza, so many options! Friendly, warm service & fun atmosphere. Most customers did take-out but we did dine in since there are a couple of tables.
Best vegan pizza I've had in Montreal. We've always been attended to by Mike & he's always been on point. Special mention for the vintage vinyl selection🙂
Amazingggg pizza!! Such a friendly staff, chill vibes with very good music! Shoutout to Mike who was very thoughtful & attentive. We hope you expand to a bigger place by the time we visit again! Blessings 🙏🏾
Vinyls are playing & always playing good beats while the ovens are cooking & always cooking the best Vegan pizza I've yet to find in Montreal, tiny place! Could use a way to use the space for seatings better but the food was so good we didn't even care!
ZACS PIZZA ... I had maybe walked by this place a thousand times before going in. I hadn't even occured that vegan pizza could be good. & now, I maybe eat at zacs 3 times a week. The first time i tried it, it was so gooey, salty & savoury, but with enough crisp in the crust to keep me coming back. I was in shock, in awe. The taste of this pizza, defied all logic. I said how can vegan pizza taste this good? It's better than most non-vegan pizza that i've tried. The food not-withstanding, they have a beautiful artistic practice of drawing on every single box. The atmosphere is very quaint, with records being played all throughout the day. I Can't illustrate how much difference between records & a spotify playlist makes. Finally, last but not least, the manager mike is so thoughtful. It's clear that he goes out his way to make to the customers experience delightful. His attention to detail, warmth, & caring attitude make zacs pizza a hidden gem of Montreal. I would recommend zacs to anyone, vegan or not, who are interested in having an authentic Montreal experience
Some of the best vegan pizza I've ever had. I live in New York City & have tried most (or possibly all) of our well regarded vegan pizza spots & I'm not sure we have anything this good. If you're vegan or vegan adjacent definitely go here! Also I recommend their Mile End pizza which is all about pesto & pine nuts, two of the most underrated ingredients.
