Good pizza. Thin and delicious. Fresh ingredients. Great portions. I really like how we can choose two different types of pizzas in the same order if you’re doing takeout. Our crust was a little soft, but I imagine dining in it will be crispy. Overall decent pizza.

I love this place so much… It still wins my vote for best pizza place in Ottawa! I stopped by with my gf for a pizza to lift our spirits after a miserable week… It was of course a great choice. We had the many vegetarian pizza options and a few drinks, then sat out by the patio to enjoy the evening. Always great pizza, never disappointed! And even after years of coming here, I still love the pizza by the meter concept

The pizza is ingredient driven: fresh ingredients and not smothered in cheese. For for my work crew and they LOVED. GREAT sandwich selection too

Absolute top notch pizza and awesome shop they have set up. Came in for some slices and it was so good that I had to order more to go! Roman style and sold by the weight when buying slices. Very fair pricing for such quality pizza. Bought their hot honey sauce as well and the best Ive ever had! Indeed has a kick to it! Will be one of my go to’s in Ottawa and can’t wait until the next time I visit!

Met up with a friend for lunch. I absolutely love their pizza! I had a square of the thin crust rossa and a square of thick crust pepperoni pizza. We sat outside as there is a covered patio. After eating, went back inside to try their Gelato and the americano coffee. The coffee was a 10/10! The gelato was delicious. Highly recommend!
