Mambo Gourmet Pizza - Nanaimo

Great pizza; crust has a focaccia-like crisp. Staff are super mindful of diet needs (i.e., another customer ordered a pesto pizza with vegan cheese and the staff called them back to clarify the pesto wasn't vegan just in case; manager was training newer employee on gluten allergy and celiac disease).

They offer vegan cheese and vegan crust, no meat substitutes. But the vegetarian pizzas made with vegan cheese are so good!! I highly recommend the spinny style pizza, it comes with spinach, roasted garlic and pine nuts. So yummy!!

Fantastic new location just up Wallace on Franklyn. Only a few blocks up but so much safer feeling! And so much more space for operations than the old restaurant. The pizza dough is always vegan and there is also a vegan/gluten free option I’ve never tried. Lots of veg toppings. Today We had a 1/2 and 1/2 Pancho with Vegan mozzarella and Field Roast “Pepperoni” subbed for the cheddar on 1/2 and the Dizzy Greek with Vegan Mozzarella and Artichokes subbed for the Feta. Glorious.

My hubby turned 50 today and he wanted pizza for dinner. Our usual spot was closed so I had to find somewhere else. All of the reviews I could find said Mambo was the best. I ordered 2 XL pizzas and tried 6 different kinds, all delivered within a minute of the promised delivery time. The pizzas were unbelievable! So delicious!! My hubby is a bit of a critic when it comes to pizza but he loved them!!! Well done! Now I see what the fuss is all about.

Best pizza I've ever had!!!! We lived here 7 years ago and it was the best pizza ive had and I'm a pizza lover. We're back to nanaimo as of few days ago and I'm so excited to try out pizza we just ordered!!!!
