I grew up in Estevan, I believe that is where Houston pizza started actually. They were (maybe are, been a long time) a good pizza but the tower restaurant was better. In Sask, my favourite pizza was Verns pizza as someone mentioned earlier.

The Meat Lovers on Monday night when you pick it up has always been seriously delicious. Ain’t cheap, but it’s delicious every time I’ve had it.

BTW, Victoria Pizza was really good for many decades. The Greeks made good pizza. For that matter, Flamingo was also excellent pizza.

Monty’s deluxe, or Monty’s special, I can’t remember which it is our go to pizza. We order it 95% of the time. It’s so delicious. I kinda want a piece right now.

Fire zone pizza across the road makes a good donair pizza and they had a spaghetti pizza which was way better than it sounds.

The wife and I used to eat at flamingo when she worked across the street from it.

I thought it was so odd that I had to have it. I was humming and hawing about when the waitress said they’d make half a pizza spaghetti and the other half something else. Sold me.

I also had a spaghetti pizza at a gas station east of south buck lake. It was really, really good.

Not right in Edmonton, but worth the mention, is Duke's Pizza in Acheson. We stayed at the Nova Inn for hockey quite a few times back when my son was younger, and the pizza there was always fantastic. The owner was great too, he actually recognized us the second time we were there and comped our meal, very friendly, and always chatted with us every time we were there. And the pizza....really good. Been a few years, I need to drop in again.

Another great choice. When I lived in Spruce Grove (shudder) I'd grab one often on the way home. Just enough time to drink 2 beers while waiting.

Thought you had only girls in that family, but then I'd think, "he's too normal for that to be the case."

7 Eleven pepperoni, mushroom & green peppers. For some reason it even tastes better when delivered by Uber Eats.

Hey Just went there for lunch and they were selling by the slice at the counter.

Any Slice for $6. and they were thick of meat not bread and a lot of cheese

Had a fully loaded which was very good !
The Hawaiian was very thick of ham but no pineapple - very disappointing .
1 slice a person is more than enough.
Will be going back again.

Used to love Capitol on 144 Ave. Ate there for more than 30 years as my parents lived about 3 blocks from there. Place has gone WAY downhill of late. Food sucks and the pizza is not as good as it used to be. Still the best thing on the current menu but not its old quality. The cook that used to work there now works at Giusseppe's on 82 St and 132 Ave. The pizza there tastes exactly like the old Capitol pizza did. Thicker type crust, ton of toppings, great tomato sauce.Rest of the food is great to.

Have been eating Tony' Pizza since he was on 118 Ave and 80St, about 1972. They moved to 111 Ave and while the area may not be the best, still great thin crust pizza, best there is in Edmonton by far. The son's are running it, Tony is retired and lives in Italy most of the year.

Had a pizza at Royal on 127 St 153 ave yesterday. Not quite as good as Giussepi's but pretty good for the thicker crust heavy topping type. Ordered it well done and it came out perfect.

Franco's on 50St is another long term favourite. Started eating there about 1981, still owned by the same guys, still top notch.

Blaze by Cabela's north is very good for wood fired, Napolitano type pizza.

One of my favorite pizza places was Famous steak and pizza which you now say is Giuseppe's... I guess I will have to try it out one day

Awesome
Order one of the loaded variety XL ones for a get together. They claim they are at least 7lbs

Was in Windemere at rush hour yesterday so hung out at Cabela's to wait out the traffic and realized a Freson Bros was close, so went there on the way home and grabbed one of their ready to go, just bake pizzas.

Pretty tasty pizza for a do it at home option.

Red Bullets · #50 02-17-2022, 08:56 PM

I don't go out for pizza much. So far Royal Pizza just south of Whyte ave is tasty.

I make a fruit pizza from scratch that is the ultimate. Shortbread crust, creamed cheese for sauce, sliced fruits like pineapple, kiwi, strawberry, and berries like saskatoons, blueberries, raspberries and a honey glaze. It's so good but so rich you can't eat much.

Any St Albert recommendations?

superuke · #55 02-21-2022, 03:25 PM

Bride and I went to
Giuseppes Pizza and Pasta House
13128-82 St Edmonton Phone 780-377-2727
On Saturday night. Ordered their meat lovers Pizza. My goodness it was
and inch thick. Simply awesome. The price was really low compared to other shops. Just after we ordered they gave complimentary deep fried Cheese sticks
and deep fried mini meat balls. Could not believe it. Looks like it is run by an elderly man and wife team. Certainly are out to impress new customers.
looks like they now will have an added customer. Yes referred from this forum.
Not a classy place but super good.

Also like : Tony's
Also like Royal Pizza
Capital Pizza and Steak house: 8204-160 Ave (780) 457-0909

If you like thin crust Buco is expensive but pretty good. Have not found any others there that I would put on the go back to list, so hoping some others actually post some good st albert locations to try.

bezzola · #58 02-22-2022, 05:58 AM

Campus Pizza!! little shop. Have been going there for decades. 76 ave, 112/113 st

I'm a New york / New jersey pizza kind of guy sooo i'm gonna say
Ragazzi's 8110 82 Ave NW
or Tony's pizza palace 9605 - 111 Ave

New York Style
Sicilian style, Greek
