Vesuvios Pizzeria

[Shiek]

[h=2]Located at 3014 Dundas Street West Toronto 416-763-4191[/h]

Owned and operated by the Pugliese family since 1957. Probably the oldest pizzeria if not the first in Toronto and in my humble opinion the best tasting pizza I've ever eaten. Only Chicago's original deep dish is a serious contender to this amazing place.

Authentic Italian cuisine, most made from scratch in house and I've yet to sample a dish in the 5 years I've been visiting that's been below par. It's a wonderful place to take a date for dinner, the atmosphere is light and cheerful and its a very popular restaurant. Dinner for two can range from $40 to $200 depending on how many of their delicious dishes are ordered.

Do they deliver?.

 

[HOF]

Do they have whole wheat, gluten free pizza dough for us diabetic types?

 

[Shiek]

Clicking on the address link will take you to their website. They do deliver locally but like any pizza place there is a limit to how far they will deliver.

HOF, good question. More and more restaurants are offering those alternatives, I am not sure if they do but a quick phone call to them will tell you yes or no.
