Famoso Neapolitan Pizzeria

Great pizza! Fresh and flavourful ingredients! Service was good too! When we popped in, we didn't realize until after we already ordered that they were closing soon, and they were super patient with us. Love their Mozzballs and their Caesar salad too!

It's hard to beat this pizza place; the food tastes just like the pizzas we had in Italy and that's because they are cooked in authentic Italian fire ovens and they use authentic ingredients like imported tomatoes from Campania and Canadian Fior-di-latte mozzarella. This is a family favorite for us when we do go out for pizza. On our last dinner there, my youngest opted to create his own pizza to match his spicy tastes; my eldest had the Capriccioso (a favorite for my carnivorous son); hubby and I shared a Dom Andreas (with creme fraiche, Fior-di-latte, roasted chicken, corn and Chipotle salsa and avocado, with a side of Valentina hot sauce) and the unique Cavoletti (with oven roasted brussel sprouts, prosciutto crisps, dates, walnuts, gorgonzola and honey). Plus we parents enjoyed the Monday drink special: Mela Margarita Cocktail. We sat outside on the patio and found the service friendly as always, although we thought it took a bit longer than usual to get our pizzas this time.

Was here a few nights ago with my younger sister and best friend for a girls night out we had Italian sodas to drink which are very delicious and the service was it incredibly friendly we had an amazing waitress who was super social and very kind. We did have to wait for a table for about 10 minutes however that went by very fast. The prices were moderate. The food was absolutely amazing definitely recommend the ceaprse salad and the Mediterranean flatbread comes with hummus for dipping overall it was a great night and will definitely be back

Edit.... <br/ approach has changed. Staff take your order instead of up at the counter now. Staff are friendly and quick to serve. Attentive staff all evening while on the patio. Great appetizer tonight of boccochino for the table. Warm and tasty melted cheese. Pizzas for the table is crisp on the bottom and perfect on top. Great friendly service continued throughout our meal. <br/ Thanks for the great evening Famoso and with the fabulous improvement in your service !<br/ <br/ Different approach to restaurant dinning. Not really liking the go up and order my meal approach. Pizzas for the gang took 15 minutes to come to a table with only five other tables in the joint. Kind of ridiculous when they claim it's cooked in 90 seconds. Slow service continued with the drinks, refills and clearing the table. Choose another location. Like any other one in the city!

Have been to Famoso a few times (Sherwood and Whyte), but this is the first time I 've ventured outside my 'Turn any salad into a pizza ' selection. Went with the Spicy Thai and it was delicious if you love fresh vegetables and spice on your pizza this choice is for you. With a scope of Nutella gelato on the side my bill was $22. Great joint.
