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.
Oh myyyyy goodness! As a huge fan of American-Itallian pizza I am always on the hunt for something similar tasting available locally. Until now, the search hasn't been successful... I've tried the other mtl "NY" styled slice shops, & while they are good, they pale in comparison to the "real thing". Welldun is such a gem in MTL! We ordered New York slices as well as Detroit & they were both incredible & very authentic! Perfectly balanced in flavour, acidity, crisp & chew... Beautiful selection, friendly service & very clean. Great first experience & I will most certainly be back! Would be awesome if they introduce a Chicago deep dish as well!

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.
a delicious slice of pepperoni pizza sitting on a white plate on a dining table. The pizza is generously topped with cheese & pepperoni, making it an appetizing meal. A bottle of beer is placed next to the pizza, adding to the enjoyable dining experience. A fork is also present on the table, ready to be used for enjoying the pizza. The dining table occupies most of the scene, with the plate & the bottle of beer being the main focus of the image.

La meilleure pizza de tout verdun, très recomendé, une pizza étonnante, un concept différent. Les pizzaiolios Oscar & Daniel donnent un excellent service.
Hands down the best pizza I've ever had. A unique spot in that they have 4 styles to choose from (NY, Detroit, Sicilian, & Grandma) & all of them done exceptionally well. Most pizza spots usually just stick with one style, or two. My favourites were the Sicilian pepperoni & Detroit vodka sauce with pesto. I would recommend dining-in so you can get the slices freshly re-heated out of the oven.
Best pizza between Ottawa & Montreal. We make day trips all the way here JUST to buy this pizza & take home. Nothing reheats like this & it lasts days still tasting excellent. Will be a customer for years to come. Pictured is the vodka sauce bacon Detroit style. OMG.

I recently dined at this amazing pizzeria, & the experience was fantastic. The pizza was incredibly scrumptious, with a unique & juicy flavor that set it apart from any other I've had. Each bite was a delight, & the atmosphere was welcoming. Highly recommend this spot for all pizza lovers! Detroit style vodka pesto 😍
Easily the best thick/bready pizza slice I had in Montreal. Exploding with flavors & quality ingredients. I especially loved the crispiness of the detroit-style, & the toppings of the vodka bacon slice were amazing.
Pizzas envoûtantes 🥰 On goûte les ingrédients de qualité & le savoir faire! Difficile de choisir parmis les 4 styles différents & toutes les garnitures offertes 🤤... pas le choix que de revenir pour toutes les essayer 😂
