I love love Pizzaiolo! After a night out, I crave their pizza with their wonderful toppings. I am a fan of their spinach/tomato type topping pizza slices. They even have pizza for vegans, how awesome is that.
This location is on the main King West strip, it is has ample seating for those that want to stick around. The service was over-top, I accidentally dropped my half my slice of pizza on the floor and they gave me another slice for my troubles. I was not expecting that.
Make Pizzaiolo your pizza stop! -

My fav neighborhood pizza joint. Doesn't taste mass produced, and not as greasy.
The slices are beastly large. -

I've had this pizza a couple of times - it's damn tasty. They certainly picked up where Amato plummeted into failed business-hood.
I'm giving them a crappy rating because we ordered delivery last week - the guy had a really difficult time taking the order, after an hour and a half of no pizza (and two confusing phone calls) our empty stomachs were eating themselves so I finally canceled the order, opting to go out to eat. The delivery guy showed up shortly thereafter anyhow with a cold bag of food that looked like it had been been kicked around.
He was pushing his way into the apartment, demanding we take the food, as I was trying to close the door after politely declining twice, my boyfriend finally had to yell profanities to get him to leave.
Totally never ordering from them again, but might hit them up on a late night stagger home. -

A great spot for an afternoon slice. With 3 different types of vegan pizza available and $4 a slice, how can you go wrong?
My favourite was originally the Fredo, potatoes with rosemary is a good combo. The only problem is, they cut the potatoes to thin! Honestly, how much are you spending on potatoes? Give me a decent slice! Now I'm leaning more towards the Vittoria, those herbed tomatoes really hit the spot. Wait, how come "herbed" isn't a word? What about herbing? Nope. Darn that sucks. I should probably re-write this review then. Hmm... nope, it doesn't look like that's going to happen. -

OMG!!!!!!!!!!! I CAN EAT PIZZA IN TORONTO AGAIN!!!!!
Tonight was a crazy night, which consisted of being fitted for a fashion show, rehearsal, make-up and waiting eons backstage for the show to start at a King St. W lounge. Prior to all the madness at the lounge, the models and I took a dinner break near the lounge. We wanted pizza (YES, models eat carbs!) so the majority of us went to Pizza Pizza, which was 2 doors down from the lounge. I decided that I didn't want pizza from the pizza giant, so I asked a model to come with me across the street to Pizzaiolo... a pizza joint that I'd never been to and seemingly better than Pizza Pizza. I was secretly hoping that they might have/ make me a slice of cheeseless pizza (like my beloved 2001 Flavours in VanCity... I MISS YOU BC!). To my surprise, they have THREE types of vegan, cheeseless pizza:
1. Whole Wheat Diana -mushrooms, spinach, herbed tomatoes, zucchini and olive oil
2. Fredo -yukon gold potatoes, olive oil, fresh rosemary and oregano
3. Vittoria -herbed tomatoes, zucchini, roasted red peppers and their famous Pizzaiolo Sauce
I chose the Diana ($4.19, taxes included) and it was awesome: The whole wheat crust was thin and had a good texture, quantity of the veggies (spinach in particular) was generous, and the quality of the veggies was superb. It was not bad for a re-heated pizza. It's definitely better than Cora's vegan pizza -which until today was my fave place for pizza in Toronto because of its 1 vegan pizza selection.
Although Pizzaiolo has certainly impressed me with having THREE regular vegan pizzas and has made me very happy, reheated pizza slices still does not beat a freshly baked pizza slice, made upon request, with all the veggie toppings I want... all just for me at $1.50. Oh, how I've miss you 2001 Flavours.... the reason why I only eat pizza in Vancouver. I LOVE BC!
**The Cavs were at the lounge I was modeling at tonight. I asked one of them if there was a game tonight and he said no, it's tomorrow. He also said they're gonna beat the Raps! How arrogant! I hope the Raptors school them tomorrow night! GOOOOO Raptors!
