Only had there pizza and it was the best pizza I've ever eaten before. I ordered the chicken shawarma pizza with garlic and hot sauce on top.
The pizza itself is only average, but its the delicious goodies they put on top that make this pizza the king of all pizzas.
Also, it might just be me, but every time I eat the pizza I get an upset stomache. Does this happen to anyone else? -

As some of the other reviewers have already said, Chito's is nowhere near your fine dining experience, but don't let the appearance scare you off... the food here is pretty good. Just a few steps from the Lansdowne TTC station, Chito's is a great place to pop in and grab a quick bite to eat.
I wouldn't recommend coming here for sit down, because (1) there's not much seating to begin with - only stools that face the back/side wall, and (2) you probably want to get in and out as fast as possible to avoid absorbing too many calories from the airborne grease. Although they're known for their pizza, I only ever tried the chicken wraps. For $4 (no tax), you get a decent sized chicken wrap with meat straight off the spit.
The best part, they have LOTS of toppings (more than 10 if I recall correctly) plus the delicious garlic and hot sauce. Don't forget to get extra napkins because these things are a challenge to eat, especially if ordered fully loaded. -

I dropped into Chito's late one night after reading in the Bloordale Press about their pizza topped with chicken shawarma... my mouth had been watering ever since seeing the photo.
I couldn't find this delicacy anywhere on the menu, but upon request the man behind the counter took a slice of pepperoni and topped it with delicious chicken and garlic sauce... Amazing!
I likely wouldn't have eaten this pizza if it wasn't slathered in chicken and garlicy goodness - it was a bit dry-looking before being 'dressed' - but does any other place offer something like this??
Good job, Chito. Good job. -

Dirty, dirty pizza. If you are looking to feel ill, than this is the pizza joint for you. You might as well just drop your slice of pizza into the toilet. I thought that the idea of chicken shwarma topped on my slice would be a nice addition to my pizza.... I was clearly mistaken. The grisly chicken tasted as if Chito's had placed a collection bin outside of KFC and collected all of the left over nasty bits from random parts like chicken feet and beaks. They then slathered the chicken with a gnarly garlic sauce that made my stomach turn just to look at it. However, I had the munchies and I am just pig enough to eat it.
If you are desperate for discounted dirty food and indigestion, than Chito's is the joint for you. -

Chito's always seems to be busy and I honestly just can't fathom why. Are they crazy inexpensive? Na, not really. I mean, they're cheap, sure, but not in a good way.
I went in hoping for a slice of pizza and quickly changed my mind upon viewing the dry, old slices on offer. I instead opted for a falafel, seeing as they're seemingly more a shawarma/falafel joint anyway.
The falafel was dry, lacked flavour, and was overly greasy. Hm. Not good. The pita shell seemed stale. Also not good. The toppings were sparse and bland. Triple fail.
It was cheap, but even cheap doesn't justify bad. I won't be back, especially considering we've got Curry in a Hurry, Ali Baba's, and Vena's all within a stone's throw distance despite being in another stratosphere of quality. -

A slice of pizza heaped with chicken shawarma and strong creamy garlic sauce... and a pop for $3.50. Awesome value, and tasty! I've had better pizza elsewhere, but you can't beat the value offered!

Chito's claims they have just about everything in one tiny restaurant that, as far as I saw, has no seating. The pizza at the end of the day was curled up and dry - nothing was fresh, but I was starving.
The only thing that made my slice better was by first seeing a woman get a slice with chicken on the top. They carved fresh chicken from the spit and loaded it on top - added garlic and hot sauces, then popped it in a bag.
It was great to have late-night, and the service is pretty good - but all in all, the food is tired, dry, and dirty. -

Ahhhh Chito's!
I live just around the corner from this place and it has served me very well!
If you're short on money and want something filling - go to Chito's.
If you're in the area and want something cheap and cheerful - go to Chito's
If you want a riduculous amount of food that you are going to eat straight away, go to Chito's.
I tend to stay away from the pizza here though. Don't get me wrong, it's a solid pizza. But the chicken shwarma is where it's at. A big bite of food for under 5 books. Can't go wrong.
My one word of advise is that if you order the pizza with chicken on it, you better eat that bad boy the same night because when I opened up the fridge the day after a particularly heavy night's drinking, the leftover chicken had gone rock solid. Not good in the microwave! It's the chicken on a skewer thing that they use for their kebabs and what not.
Chito's chicken wrap - do it! -

Chito's Pizza is probably best known as the former "Pizza Best" in the shady 'hood of Bloor/Lansdowne. I'm not sure if the owner is the same as it was when it was called Pizza Best but his name is indeed Chito.
I remember ordering delivery from here a bunch of times when my brother lived in the area and a group of us would go to his place to watch Leafs games. The most memorable phone call (a story that my family is constantly asking me to repeat!) went a little something like this:
Me: "Hey, do you guys have some sort of special, like two medium or large pizzas plus drinks for under $20?"
Delivery Guy: "No, we don't have anything like that, sorry."
Me: "You don't have any party-sized specials?"
Delivery Guy: "The only thing I can offer you is two large pizzas with three toppings each, 15 chicken wings, four pops, cheesy fries and nachos for $15."
So ten times the food for 2/3 the price? Sold. Quick and reliable!Listed in: Toronto's Most Incredible…

I enjoy the pizza here, although most times I have visited after the midnight hours they seem to be open. It's no fancy place and there is no room to sit but it gets the job done.
