| - I was looking for pizza in the neighbourhood in mid-January, and this place was recommended. I spied the prepared slices in a display case and decided to take a pass, so can't comment on the pizza here.
The house dish, a Turkish bread called "pide" (pronounced pee-da), stuffed with various ingredients and baked, is the way to go. I had the spinach, feta and mozzarella, and it was quite good. The pides are pizza-like, but contain a different type of dough and lack tomato sauce. If I was to have it again, I would probably ask for some sauce, and customize my ingredients like a pizza. Hopefully, the very friendly owner would go for that.
Greg C. makes a good suggestion with the bonus veggies. Alternately, you could just squeeze the lemon on the onion (and tomato) as was suggested by the owner, and eat away. They are mild white onions, and are delicious. Care is obviously taken with the fresh ingredients.
I was happy to patronize this independent local eatery, and probably will again.
edit. Went back today since Danforth Pizza House was closed. Asked for a bit of tomato sauce on my pide, added mushrooms to the spinach, feta and mozzarella, and liked it better.
