Review Summary

Heirloom Vin & Pizza draws mixed to positive feedback, with praise for a strong dough and high quality ingredients and many calling it one of the best pizzerias in town, especially downtown. The dough is repeatedly praised and service is described as fast and friendly even on busy nights, with takeout working smoothly, though ambiance is often noted as lacking and the venue can feel like an upgraded food court. The menu offers variety with good wine options and poutine and is a solid choice for a midday meal. On the pizza side, the calabrese is flavorful and the four cheese pie can be excellent when the cheese balance is right, but some find the four cheese version too blue cheese heavy and the vegetable pie bland. The caesar salad is small and could use more sauce.View restaurant profile
