It was a birthday gathering with a party of 15. Our server was Antonio. It began with a slow service, took forever to wait to get him to take orders. We had 11 people sit altogether and two people that was in another table being separated by a small gap. So to have a more inclusive environment, friends merged the table and Antonio said that there was a reason to not put the tables together. His... more

Came here with my husband and another couple. We were seated at the bar on the high top tables. The place was super hard for all of us to find but we found it, across Holts. You walk down stairs to get to the restaurant.
We ordered the antipasto platter to start for 2, it was huge! Fed all 4 of us, that was $24. We also ordered the Caprese large salad $15. Everything was great and REALLY big... more

Had the margarita pizza and mushroom pizza last night and it was amazing probably one of the best pizzas I've had! The atmosphere and service was great as well def recommend this place!

I ate here last night for the second time ever and I won't be going back.

I would give the place the default one star instead of none simply because we had decent service.

Otherwise, I would give DZ a rating of zero since my pizza toppings included a hidden wad of plastics strings, like brush bristles or fishing wire, which I just about choked on when I went to have a left over piece today. I... more

It's a popular Pizzeria in downtown, and you won't be disappointed. their thin crust pizzas are always yummy, the service is good and the prices are reasonable.
Don't go if you are in a hurry, since during busy hours sometimes your order can take easily 30minutes to arrive.
For weekdays lunch time, be sure to book on their website or by phone otherwise you might end up waiting, or being seated... more

Very good Gluten free pizza (could have used a little more sauce though). Amazing place. You would never think it was a pizza place. I can very well imagine the perfect place after work! Great layout!

With a $5 happy hour from 3-6, Mon-Friday, this is a great spot to wait out the C-Train rush.

Hold that thought. Double Zero Pizza is good place to eat for many occasions, ESPECIALLY if you want pizza!

While it's located in the The Core Shopping Centre, there is nothing "mall" like about Double Zero. Personally, when I'm looking for a nice place to chow down on fine food and hang out with... more

Came here for dinner before catching a show downtown. We were seated right away, and attended to right away by our fabulous server James. He was super friendly and personable, without being annoying. He was quick to let us know about the serving style of the restaurant (family style), and what to expect portion wise so we could order accordingly.
We were hungry, but didn't want to have to carry... more

Was here for happy hour.
$5 wines (red/white/sparkling)

Happy hour calamari was meh.... The batter totally did not stick....

Margherita pizza was pretty good, crust was crispy bottomed and not soggy.

Server was friendly and quick.

Just like last time - the service was solid.

The appetizers were so so. All had pizza which were average.

I believe the issue at this establishment is the high volume they have moving through - volume has been chosen over quality (my opinion). Price point is still set high - high price = elevated expectations.

We had planned on Pucinella, but diverted at the last minute... more

I'm so disappointed :( Wish I wasn't, but I am.

Went to Double Zero again with some friends, and the service was just not up to par. I was really hoping they'd wow me this time with amazing service, but unfortunately not.
We asked for tabasco sauce and our server told us they don't have any, which we thought was strange because last time we were able to get some. Don't they make Caesars? First... more

I'm not overly sure what all the hype is about over this place. For being a pizza joint the options were very underwhelming. I came here on a Friday afternoon after getting off early from work. This place fills up fast so you might want to try and make a reservation if you want a spot. We saddled up to the bar and ordered a couple of drinks to start. The music was pretty loud so it was hard to... more

It was time for a Wednesday night ladies' night and we needed to decide on a place, so we turned to our food guru, Christine. Christine chose double zero because she mentioned there was happy hour from 3-6pm daily from Monday to Friday. Happy hour consisted of $5 selected house wines, bar snacks, draught and bottled beer. Christine and Jaime met up around 5pm and I was running late so I arrived... more

Double Zero is my go-to happy hour spot when in the downtown core. All you need to tell me is $5 wine and prosecco and I don't care what it is, I'm there. I've been to this spot when it used to be Tangerine Supperclub, but somehow for a restaurant it doesn't quite work. It's dark, it's loud, and it's small. And those stairs to get in? Scary in heels. However, I'll eat and drink in a broom... more

I really liked this place, and I especially loved the $5 happy hour (house wines, appetizers and delicious prosecco)! The ambience is lovely here, it has kind of a rustic feel, which makes it feel totally authentic. The pizza I had was delicious and the dessert was pretty good as well. I was stuffed after this meal, but this is normally the case when I eat Italian food. Simply put this place is... more

Classic Italian style pizza, the perfect lunch for a Friday afternoon at the office.

I was quite impressed by Double Zero Pizza. Normally when you hear a place has gluten free pizza crust you don't expect much. It over powers the pizza and drowns out all of the flavors and really distracts you from the fact that you're eating pizza. Double Zero does it right though. I ordered the mushroom... more

The one and only time I was at Double Zero was for lunch, and it was ridiculously loud that I didn't really enjoy my experience there.

When my girlfriend suggested happy hour there, I figured I've give it another shot. We arrived shortly before 5 o'clock and it was pretty full (and LOUD) already. We got seated at the bar which I honestly didn't mind because then we were sitting beside each... more

My friend and I were disappointed with our orders. She ordered the Chicken Confit Pizza and I ordered the Roasted Vegetable Panini with a side salad of the fennel and orange.

Chicken Confit Pizza - bland and not enough meat at all.

Roasted Vege Panini - very, very bland. I couldn't tell what I was eating.

Side Salad of fennel & orange - not too bad. I like the macadamia nuts that added... more

I must be the odd duck out when it comes to Double Zero. The pizza is good enough, but the menu is painfully limited when compared to my favorite pizza destination, Pulcinella. Their antipasto plate is tasty, but again, doesn't come close to comparing with that provided by Pulcinella--for the same price, I might add.
The space is large and casual, but this is one of the reasons sound travels so... more

I had a friend in town last night and we went by Double Zero to have a few drinks. We had the opportunity to speak with Chef Rob while we were there and he suggested a few things to us, so we ordered them up. We started with the 00 Meatballs which were very fresh and moist, like Mama used to make back in Little Italy Ontario. We also had the Roasted Cauliflower, jammed full of chick peas,... more

English first, then a couple of words in Italian for my fellow countrymen.
I am always on a never ending quest for a pizza that comes close to those from the motherland. While I must say their margherita pizza was slightly thicker then a typical brick oven one from Italy, it hardly a deters me from giving 00 pizza my two thumbs up. The flavor is what counts. The mozzarella wad fresh, tomatoes... more

Okay double zero...I like you! I have been so hard to please having had so much pizza during my trips to New York, but I must say you aren't doing so bad. Your pizza is fresh and I like your crust. There is nothing worse to me than having pizza served to you that looks as if its been sitting under the heat lamp for far too long and an overdone crust that has the power to crack off a piece of... more

Dim lighting here makes me feel pretty. It's loud and energetic in a fun way, not hectic.

I enjoyed the arancini with herb and garlic aioli. Never had it tomato sauceless and I might even prefer it this way.

I had read reviews about them being too greasy but I didn't find that at all. I'm an UNA girl, but some days their pizzas are a bit dry, which was not the case here. Great flavors and... more

Great place for a few drinks after work!!.. The pizza is delicious!.. I loved the crusty!.. The appetizers are really good too!!.. And the wine was great!!.. The atmosphere is cool... I would definitely go back there!!

Very nice restaurant with great pizzas and a fun atmosphere. Very nice presentation of the food and it is not too expensive. I would go again!

It's a nice restaurant and bar but I wouldn't drive out of my way for it. The Chicken Confit pizza is delicious and I sipped some respectable Pinot Grigio, but nothing else stood out to me, really. Fun atmosphere though and I'd be happy to come back if it was convenient or part of a group get together.

Review 9 of Yelp's 30 Day Challenge - Nov 2012

I liked the pizza (Chicken confit) and the wines they had available were quite good. I like that they have a lot of wines AND a lot of beers and cocktails so there is something for everyone. The pizza is fresh with delish ingredients...it was hard to choose which one we wanted to try. I like that the food is no fuss no muss but tasty. It means you can focus on who you are with. It seemed like... more

Neapolitan style pizza that's got a good thin, toothsome crust and bulbous edge. The toppings are high-quality and the saltiness just right. The grilled lemon provided adds a great zing when sprinkled on the toppings. I'd give this place 4 stars, except that it's a bit pricey for the size of pizza you get, putting it a shade below other Neapolitan-style joints like Famoso. Of course, you pay... more

oh my glory, this is good eats.

I finally had a chance to go to double zero, and to be honest I'm sad I waited so long!

Came in on a whim on a Saturday night, and I was actually surprised by how empty this place was. We opted to sit at the bar . We had a fennel and orange salad as a starter and what a delicious way to start things off.

I don't remember what pizza we had but I know it had... more

Loved the Calabrese panini. Meats and bread were excellent, all was tasty, and the bill looked good too ;)

I loved double zero!
I had been wanting to try it for a long time after hearing great things about the restaurant for some friends and finally made it there a couple of weeks ago.
The decor and atmosphere was cool and trendy, and the food was delicious! We ordered gluten free crusts for the pizzas and you could barely taste the difference. I was particularly impressed with the chicken confit... more

My girlfriends and I heard about Double 00 in a positive light. We walked in and not even a smile from the dowdy server who asked where do we want to sit. Not even a "hi" or "welcome". I do love the interior design, it's upscale and cozy.

One of the irritating issues was the music. It was so loud you couldn't hold a conversation. We sat at the bar which is fantastic in itself. We had an... more

I have to say I'm sad I was disappointed with this place, as I was so looking forward to trying it. I have wanted to check out their GF pizza, as I was told by a girlfriend that it was good. It was a work function that brought me here on Friday. The pizza was sub-par at best, no cheese and really thick cut meats so it was hard to eat. And the crust was nothing special.
The champagne was... more

Crazy good! No wait, crazy, crazy good! Loved the atmosphere here. And this restaurant is definitely not a Famosa knock off. Way better than the aforementioned restaurant. I love a great thin crust pizza but I seldom eat the top crust. Not so here. Just couldn't get enough of the whole slice. Highly recommended. Apparently on Friday nights, this place is packed. Reservations recommended.

The pizza was excellent. I'd definitely come back again. We shared 3 pizzas among the three of us, and it was just the right proportions.

This was my first time at double zero. We headed out on a Saturday night for a dinner for a friend who was in town.

Our reservation was for 8pm. Upon arriving the hostess quickly identified our party and we were seated right away.

The initial wait for wine was a touch too long but when our waitress came over it was worth it. She knew the wine list well & was able to help us make a selection... more

Yummy pizza!!! Very Rich toppings!
The $5 happy hour is a great touch downtown too.
Our group tried the: speck, pepperoni, chicken and sausage. Very generous on the toppings! Rich and flavorful. Crust slightly crispy and chewy.
To compare to Una: Una has less rich toppings, but is lighter and heavier on the salt. Una has a thinner crispier crust, but can be a touch too hard.
Free Parking in The... more

i am p@!%!d. the food was good but the waitress assumed we wanted this b@!%!**t "environmentally friendly filtered water" that is $1 a person when we just asked for water. they do this b@!%!**t in europe all the time and i suppose i let my guard down by assuming that a restaurant in America would know better. i pointed this out to the waitress whom very reluctantly took it off the bill. a... more

There seems to be a recipe for fancy pizza place success here in Calgary. I've distilled it down to what I eloquently call the "Fancy Pizza Place Success" theory.

Double Zero, named after the flour that is (properly) used to make the crust, does an excellent job at crafting true Neopolitan pizza. The crust, as many have mentioned, is possibly the best and most authentic I've ever had in this segment. The toppings are generous (for the style) and fresh. The prosciutto is lightly smoked to perfection, with fresh arugula, mushrooms, and top quality cheeses.... more

I have since returned to Double Zero and had some non-pizza items, and they were great. The lamb meatballs and beet salad are both delish!

My second time to Double Zero on a Friday night and the place is packed! I'm glad this place finally caught on. Had a glass of wine and possibly one of the best appetizers ever, the Roasted Cauliflower. CRAZY DELICIOUS! Besides having obviously cauliflower, was fried chickpeas, capers, pecorino cheese and bits of spinach. A deadly combination. For the portion we were served, I found the $14... more

Double Zero provides fresh, flavourful pizza.
Like so many of the other Napoletana pizza places in town, you get a thin pizza with high quality toppings. What I like about Double Zero is the crust seemed to have a bit more "chew" to it.

I very much enjoyed my experience at Double Zero (the sausage pizza was my personal favourite), but I gotta be honest, I am getting a little tired of the same... more

I love Double Zero and go here all the time. Their happy hour is the best... $5 glasses of house wine and prosecco and $5 "snack" portions of their appetizers, which are all amazing.

Just tried the marinated beets tonight: awesome flavour combination (grapefruit, goat cheese, and pistachios.. yummmm).

And the calamari... I think it's the best in the city. Love it.

Beyond the great food and... more

It was a trying time figuring where I should celebrate my birthday this year and thankfully my wonderful Yelpster homies (specifically Sabz) helped me decide on where I should eat and thus I chose Double Zero Pizza.

First of all I have to thank Double Zero Pizza for even letting me have my party of almost 20 that night because when my best friend called initially they weren't sure if they... more

This is a great Famoso knockoff, and a good option for good pizza downtown. The place seats many and is upscale; great for business lunches - there is never a huge wait and there are private meeting rooms available. The meatballs are also to die for! Oh and I should mention: they have gluten free pizza!

i would not eat here over famoso - it is too expensive in my opinion and they do silly... more

Double Zero is a upscale restaurant in the core of downtown Calgary. It's a great spot for lunch, but make sure to get there early or call for a reservation unless you don't mind eating at the bar (which is actually my preference).

When at a Neapolitan pizzeria, I don't mess with appetizers or mains, but the dishes I saw leaving the kitchen certainly looked well presented and a properly... more
