Next time you’re looking for a satisfying hit of cheesy, saucy goodness, check out one of these excellent Toronto pizzerias!

Pizzeria Badiali
Price: 💸💸

Though Badiali naturally offers full pizzas, getting their stuff by the slice is the best way to try multiple flavours.

Mac's Pizza
Price: 💸💸
Cuisine: Pizza
Address: 759 Dovercourt Rd, Toronto, ON
Why You Need To Go: From humble beginnings as a super limited pizza pop-up venture launching in late 2020, Mac’s Pizza quickly became one of Toronto’s most coveted pizzas: in part because of the exclusivity, but more so because the pizza is really freaking good.
The business has since grown into its own bonafide brick and mortar spot on Dovercourt, specializing in a variety of delicious slices plus whole pies and curated selections of natural wine. Slices come in both meat and vegetarian selections, made with quality ingredients and toppings plus lots of love and craft.

Since launching, lineups remain common at Prince Street Pizza’s new Toronto outpost on Front Street, where they’re serving up seriously sumptuous Sicilian and New York style slices including the famous spicy pepperoni, which is absolutely loaded with tasty pepperoni; or the aptly named naughty pie with spicy homemade vodka sauce, pepperoni, ricotta, and honey. A standout in New York’s exceptional pizza scene, this place brings serious cred to its Toronto slice game.
Revolver Pizza Co.
Price: 💸💸
Cuisine: Wood-fired pizza

Levant
Price: 💸💸
Cuisine: Palestinian and Italian
Address: 899 Bloor St W, Toronto, ON
Why You Need To Go: If you’re looking for pizza that’s less typical than your usual Italian-style joint, Levant might be the place for you.
Cheekily referred to as "(not) pizza" by the restaurant itself, Levant intriguingly blends Palestinian and Italian flavours in its delicious range of slices and full pies, with artisanal pizza specialties including the hot honey pepperoni with harissa honey butter, the sfiha with toppings like seven spice beef and pomegranate molasses, or the OG shawarma with lamb, parsley pesto, and tahini. Creative and so, so satisfying.
