Welldun Pizza draws strong praise for its variety and high quality, with Detroit style, New York style, Sicilian and Grandma pizzas repeatedly singled out as standouts, especially the Detroit and vodka pizzas that many call the best in Montreal or Verdun. The dough is described as light and airy, the crusts crispy at the edges, and the sauces fresh and flavorful, with some calling the tomato sauce addictive and the toppings generous. The dining experience is noted as lively and busy, with friendly staff by many, though several reviews flag long waits, crowded spaces, and occasional lapses in front-of-house efficiency or inconsistent delivery temperatures. Ventilation and heat inside the venue are recurring critiques, affecting comfort during peak hours, while some patrons appreciate the convenience of slices and the option to take meals to-go. Overall, Welldun Pizza is seen as a top option in the area, delivering memorable pizzas that keep customers returning despite occasional logistical hiccups and price considerations.
First I dont understand people who complain about the heat. Its a pizzeria so obviously the store would be boiling. First time I went it was FULLY packed + the heatwave made it impossible to wait so I decided to give it a try when it's less busy & Bingo! Very good pizzeria in the heart of Verdun. I got their grand Ma pizza which was full of good & fresh flavors ; tomato sauce was good, spicy oil very tasty but lets talk about the dough : DELIGHTFUL. Tastes like a focaccia dough, very good. Staff heat the pizza on spot. Big variety of drinks too.
Only downside is the garbage bin thats always fully packed. I'd appreciate if one of the crew member took a 2min to empty it...
If you know the backstory about how these guys all learn how to make their pizzas & the genius behind it,
I would go as far as saying it's the best pizza in Canada. I legit got there Detroit style bacon vodka travelled all the way to Ottawa & dropped it to a few of my boys, needless to say they're making the trip to Montreal to come have this pizza five stars all across the board hands-down the best restaurant in Verdun cheers to the staff you guys are awesome
Une des meilleures pizzerias de Montréal. Unique en son genre à Verdun.
Les pizzas de type « deep dish » sont toutes délicieuses & la portion est très généreuse.
Par contre, dû à l'achalandage, l'attente peut être très longue, spécialement durant les heures de pointes. Un établissement victime de son succès.
Nous vous recommandons grandement cette petite perle de Verdun, surtout sur le pouce, vu la taille du restaurant! 🍕
Meilleure pizza de Verdun, voir de Montreal.
Si vous n'avez jamais mangé la bas allez-y.
Les pizzas sont bonnes, original, addictive.(disponible en slice ou en complète)
Mention special pour la burrata qui rajoute vraiment du gout au pizza.
Decided to stop in for a slice while I was strolling down Wellington street in Verdun. I was looking for a sandwich shop or blackstrap bbq but couldn't find either so I decided to go inside Welldun pizza to sample a slice & I am glad I did: The pizza was awesome! Fresh ingredients, chunky pizza sauce & crispy'welldun' dough. I had a slice of the Margherita & a slice of the Sicilian style pepperoni (a corner of course!).
Atmosphere was cool, it reminded me of an old school pizzeria & I loved the counter seating in the back of the restaurant. The Service was very friendly & welcoming. I watched the owner carefully making one delicious pizza after another while talking with some regular customers. Loved the ambiance & will definitely be making a return trip very soon! As I was leaving I saw a beautiful pie coming out of the oven, the carnivore, with heaping servings of various meats. I wanted to sit back down & have another slice but decided to save it for the next time ; ...
It turns out Welldun Pizza is in the same spot as the old Blackstrap BBQ. A second life for a great location! Highly recommended for a quick delicious pizza

Went from the East End of Montreal to Verdun to get some Welldun Pizza. Did not disappoint. Best pizza I have ever tasted. Fresh ingredients. Simply delicious! Highly recommend!
Un des meilleurs spots pour manger de la pizza à Verdun. Le seul bémol serait le manque de ventilation sur place : tu manges là-bas & l'odeur reste collée à toi.
Oh my goodness, I honestly did not think I'd survive the hellish furnace that is Welldun Pizza on a sweltering Verdun evening. I waited for over 45 minutes (with my baby in tow), can you believe it, for just 4 pizza slices, that for all intents & purposes should've been ready to just shove in a box & send me out the door with. The working (& waiting) conditions in the restaurant were quite close to unbearable. I would be surprised if the temperature & lack of ventilation were actually legal for the staff working there. While the pizza ovens themselves were vented, the rest of the restaurant did not appear to be, so every time the ovens were opened, the room filled with smoke that just hung in the air. There were two paltry fans for the staff themselves, but nothing at all for the people waiting well over half an hour to even be greeted. I understand from reading other reviews that the family establishment did not expect the heat & ventilation to have been as much of an issue when setting up (are they new to Montreal?), & I respect that making any major changes takes time & money that may well not be available at the moment, but at the very least, could they not have bought a few utilitarian-but-effective fans in the meantime? While the staff were clearly working themselves to the bone, & I will say nothing against anyone doing their best to meet the demand, the actual ordering process & general organisation was poorer than I even thought possible for a pizza slice place. When you finally get to the front of the queue after goodness knows how long, all the pizza you had mentally earmarked to order on your way in had disappeared, & the woman of the front shrugs unapologetically & says "that's just how it goes... if you want to wait another 10 minutes, we may have some more". & bear in mind that these were the only veggie pizzas available - ordering from one of the other multitude of pork-topped slices just wasn't an option. The pizza itself was, thankfully, fantastic. Hence the 2 star review, & not 1. & I hope that the restaurant can iron out these operational challenges. Montreal deserves this great pizza, but I am concerned, seeing the beleaguered looks on the queuing customers' faces, that far fewer will get to try it than should.
La meilleure pizza de tout verdun, très recomendé, une pizza étonnante, un concept différent. Les pizzaiolios Oscar & Daniel donnent un excellent service.

I tried the pizza here for the second time. The first time, I had their thick crust, but I wasn't a fan as it felt like there was too much bread. However, I recently tried their thin crust margarita pizza, & it was fantastic. The sauce was excellent, & the amount of cheese was just right. I'll definitely be coming back for more. I will vote this as my best pizza place in Verdun.
This place is seriously great. Undoubtedly, the best pizza place in Verdun. They usually have NY style, Detroit style, & Sicilian. So so so good, GREATLY recommend.
La pizza est délicieuse mais j'ai reçu un service unilingue anglais, le caissier ne comprenait pas le français & me faisait répéter tout. Ça a teinté négativement mon expérience. J'habite Verdun depuis près de 20 ans.
Very good pizza in the neighborhoods of Verdun. We had the NY (New York style pizza), Margarita (Flatbread pizza), Detroit (deep dish pizza) & the Sicilian (more like a Roman pizza - in my opinion). The were all very good made with fresh ingredients & the famous tomato Bianco Dinapoli. Love it too because you can try different styles of pizza at the same time. A must go if you're around!
