Excellent pizza, great service & very friendly but….
We waited for our 4 pizzas for 1 hour at least & 1 of the 4 burnt so waited another 30 mins.
It was a busy online order Friday evening, but we all agree that people onsite should have precedence.
The staff apologized & didn't charge for 1 of the pizza.
Thanks but the message is to better order takeout or delivery
Mon restaurant préféré dans Villeray!! Je mange régulièrement des pizzas en Italie ou en France & celles-ci se qualifient parmi les meilleures que j'ai mangées! La déco est super belle, le personnel est sympathique & l'ambianceest calme & cozy. On y retourne constamment !!
Celebrated my b-day there. Everyone loved it.
Pleasant atmosphere. Dedicated chefs. Great staff & well equipped bar.
A little bread & butter on the table or the option to order bread or focaccia for starters would be my one constructive critique but I'm a fat kid at heart. Maybe next time I'll smuggle my own mini loaf of bread in my wife's bag.
The meatballs were TO DIE FOR. Nice place to go on a date.

Est-ce que la pizza hawaïenne sera de retour un jour sur le menu ?
Pour une période limitée peut-être ?
C'était la meilleure en ville.

Everything was great - that bench that we were sitting on was very uncomfortable though. The food though - yum, everything from the calamari/shrimp, the arancini & the garlic knots were a great start. The gnocchi, the cavatelli - oh the heavenly cavatelli, were delicious & the sollevio & boscaiola pizzas were divine. Sadly, I've had better cannoli's, but the savoury dishes were superb - we will be back.
We had a fantastic meal here!
Vesta salad had more red onion than I like, but was incredibly generous in portion. We made the mortadella pizza vegetarian by subbing in the roasted veggies, & I will dream of it for a very long time. Great drinks & the most amazing chocolate cannoli any of us had ever had. Thank you to our lovely server! 💖
Nous avons partagé trois plats à deux. La salade INSALATA MISTICANZA ne goûtait pratiquement rien tandis que la pizza VESTA #1 aux légumes marinés manquait de garnitures & était beaucoup trop salée. Les cavatelli étaient heureusement mieux réussis. Le mocktail LIVORNO ne goûtait pas le ginger beer & était beaucoup trop sucré. Première expérience décevante côté cuisine. Dommage, car le service était excellent & l'ambiance fort agréable.
