"For the most authentic pizza this side of Napoli" elevated by a "light fluffy crust" that "melts in your mouth", pie lovers brave "line-ups out the door" (no reservations) at this "trendy" Ossington Italian where "inventive" antipasti, salads and "terrific" desserts round out the menu; "reasonable" prices, "helpful" servers and "comfortable" environs ensure the "hipsters just keep coming."
This pizza parlor has been doing gangbuster business since opening its doors a few years ago. This was Toronto's first "authentic" Neapolitan-style pizzeria: The super-thin crusts cook in less than 2 minutes in a specially built and imported wood-burning oven that hovers around the 700-degree mark. Toppings are simple: in-house-made spicy sausage with tomato sauce, the classic Margherita, and... more
Eating pizza is a lot like having sex: great anytime of the day including first thing in the morning; even if it's bad it's still pretty good; and if it's great you want more immediately.Anyone who's lived in this city for long enough has probably had more pizza partners than is usually healthy and has probably fallen for the odd one.

I am already preparing myself to be pelted by tomatoes for this review. I swear, I am by no means a pizza snob, and I can get down with a Domino's pizza every so often. Maybe I came here with expectations that were too high - after one failed attempt to go to the University location, I've had Libretto on my list for the past year. Don't get me wrong, the pizza was fine, but it wasn't anything... more

Pizzeria Libretto has been serving hungry Toronto locals as well as tourists with their delicious pizzas, for a long time now. Their crust is a savory mix of pizza dough and Indian naan which makes it unique. There are various toppings for you to experiment with but their sausage pizza is a winner. With pizzas you should also try their Duck Confit, Fried Calamari, and Grilled Egg Plant. The... more

Each pizza is made as a single serving and is not overwhelmed with toppings. Cheese and... more
