| - Loved this place until they changed the menu, use to go to the queen east location, but was excited when a Etobicoke location opened, because it's closer to me, went a few times when it first opened and it was just a good as the Queen east location, but sadly they menu has changed, and now the food is BLAND, the pizza crust is too thin in the middle and soft and mushy on the edges, and it lacks the fun huge bubbles that use to be on the edges with the nice brown crisp on them.. the sauce is BLAND no garlic or flavor at all. and I don't want a salad on my pizza, too many weird toppings and I HATE ARUGULA, it's bitter and unless your going to put a balsamic reduction on it it's just gross, the pizza was cold, as I watched the poor servers have to wait for this new chef to dress and cut each pizza, so the pizza sit's on the pass way way too long..And now to the prices..way way too much for a small pizza, guess these owners don't know the clients they are catering too, old money, sad to say but they are cheap, they won't pay more than $55-$65 for a family of 4 to eat pizza's and a couple of appetizers and drinks, with this price increase it's going to cost over $100 for a family of 4 to eat..and old money just won't pay that..they are thrifty with their money.. I won't be going back to this location EVER again the queen east location has thankfully kept their menu the same, and I will be heading back there next time I want a great Pizza..I say fire the chef, who btw smokes, so limited pallet. go back to what works, lower the prices and the old money crowd will return, I was astonished that I was able to get a reservation at 7:30 that should have been my first clue something was up, 3 months ago you couldn't get a reservation at this location until after 8:30 9:00 it was so booked up.. I feel sorry for their WONDERFUL staff, they are forced to SELL this new menu, to customers only to have the disappointing Food arrive, 35 min's later, which is now way way way longer than before..and it's COLD too boot.. I have to say that over all the experience was disappointing and it's a shame because.. if it ain't broke-don't fix it..the place was excellent as it was, it didn't need to be shee shee foo fooed all up..
