Review from Kent V.

I really like the pizza here. It isn't like the trendy thin crust joints of Una, Without Papers, or Famoso. Its heavy, but not enough to be a deep dish either. Thick, loaded with cheese and toppings, and pretty greasy. 3 slices in, and you'll be stuffed. A large is probably good for 3 people.
The ceasar salad was also really good. Rich, creamy, lots of Parmesan, and good croutons. The only thing that could make it better is bacon bits, because bacon makes anything better.
Its pretty much right behind the Calgary Tower (on 10th) and deserves more attention. Looks like a casual family restaurant on the inside, and it has a great rooftop patio for when you want to grab some 'za and sit in the sun. -

I hate to be Debbie Downer, but I am not a fan of this place.
We ordered this at work recently,and I was reluctant as I live close to this place and have seen the cooks standing right outside thier back door smoking, dirty looking and in dirty aprons. yuck.
Our pizzas arrived and they ( like many have said) very thick....this would have been fine if the pizza wasnt so greasy...the grease was pooling up in the middle of the pizzas.... worst part was..... we found a huge long hair baked into the cheese. Now I recognize that hair in food can happen from time to time... accidents happen, however that combined with the images of the dirty looking cooks I have seen was pretty off-putting.
Many will continue to frequent this place... However I wont be one of them. -

I was really hungry while yelping today and after my stint last night at VIN; I woke up at noon with no inspiration to cook so I decided to call Michael's. When researching Yelp pages (thank you Yelp) this seemed to be the most loved pizza place.
After yesterday's snow spill, going out to get cash was not an attractive option so I was relieved to find that Michaels takes credit card orders on the phone plus delivery in the downtown area is free. So incredibly happy, I ordered the small house special at 12.75. This has pepperoni, mushrooms, ham, green peppers, tomatoes and feta cheese. MP also had two of my favourite dessert treats, baklava and Nanaimo bars. Man what a great lunch I will have, all for a grand total of $16.
30 minutes passed and as promised I got a knock on my door, the box seemed small but I was super hungry. I measured the pizza, a grand total of 8 inches but the most impressive feature is that it was 1 inch tall. MP is not shy about loading your pizza and first bite was so amazingly good. I was really impressed, thick, crunchy, tons of feta but not overwhelming. After 3 slices I must admit I am already stuffed.
Like other yelpers I love Michael's pizza and will definitely order from them again. -

I was told that Michael's has "the best pizza in Calgary". So for a recent meeting we had a couple of pizza's and some salad delivered to my office. I first tried the salad, trying to be healthy and all, it was way over dressed to the point where the lettuce had turned very soft. But, lets be honest who really cares about the salad at pizza place (it is all about the pie!). This is a thicker crust pizza, with LOTS of cheese. I would compare it to a mix between a true chicago deep dish and an original crust pizza. However, there pizza was way to cheesy and greasy. The crust absorbed too much grease and was like a piece of bread dipped in water. I was not impressed, I am definitely on the look out for a better pizza place in Calgary.

I think this place is the one of the best pizza shops in Calgary. I usually always order the Cesar salad and it is tasty. It has a great home made dressing that is very rich. The pizza is loaded with toppings and it has a bunch of cheese. I have tried many different versions of the pizza and I have not found one that disappointed me. This is definitely the best pizza downtown and it is in the running for best in Calgary. You don't leave here hungry.

Our office once in a while orders Michael's Pizza - they have the best pizza in downtown Calgary! I love the SFO (Spinach, Feta, Onions) - my absolute favourite!

Most people here are commenting on the pizza, and I have to admit, I didn't try it. So if that's what you're looking for, skip me! If you like baked spaghetti, though, this place has perhaps the best I've ever tried. A very nice layer of cheese on top, and not too much sauce underneath. Very well done, and a big portion. Salad was excellent as well.
