From Italy to Canada: A Pizza Journey
Pizzaiolo was born from a deep passion for authentic Italian pizza and a commitment to bringing that tradition to Canada. Our story begins in 2008 when our founder, after years of training in Naples, decided to create a pizza experience that honored Italian heritage while embracing Canadian ingredients and communities.
What started as a single location in Toronto quickly grew into a beloved brand across Canada, as pizza lovers discovered the difference that naturally leavened dough, never-frozen ingredients, and traditional wood-fired ovens make.
Authenticity
We honor traditional Italian pizza-making techniques that have been perfected over generations.
Quality
We never compromise on ingredients, sourcing the finest local and imported products.
Community
Each Pizzaiolo location is deeply connected to its neighborhood, supporting local farms and initiatives.
Our Commitment to Craft
At Pizzaiolo, we believe that great pizza requires time, skill, and the finest ingredients. That's why our dough ferments for 48 hours, developing complex flavors and perfect texture. It's why we train each pizzaiolo (pizza maker) in traditional techniques, and why we source our ingredients from local farms whenever possible.
We're proud to be recognized as one of Canada's premier artisan pizza brands, but what matters most to us is the smile on our customers' faces when they taste a pizza that truly embodies the heart and soul of Italian tradition.
