After the demise of the last VPN-esque pizza joint in these parts (PIE Wood-fired) I was amazed to see somebody else try to take a shot at that market. I fully expected this to be PIE (with all its crazy pizza combinations) relaunched as fast food/takeout. But it isn't. Not even close. Way better.
The best way to describe Vis-a-Vis, it's Blaze/Mod Pizza without the Subway/Chipotle/Mucho Burrito style "toppings bar". You choose from one of their 12 signature pizzas or create your own, they assemble it for you, and then the pizza bakes in the 1000F rotating oven imported from Italy, which has both gas and wood fire in order to get both consistent heat and the smoked flavor and avoiding having to rely on staff to keep the pizzas moving around for even cooking. Once in the oven the pizza is done in less than 4 minutes. I believe this is the oven they have: http://marraforni.com/products/enclosed-facade-wood-gas-fired-ovens/
The pizza was delicious, and I'd say much better than Blaze (they aren't stingy with toppings like Blaze, and you won't need to add parmesan/pepper flakes/salt, very flavorful and perfectly seasoned), however you definitely pay for it. Pizzas start at $8.50 for a small margherita all the way up to $29 for a large Veggie Mania.
If you feel like Blaze Pizza but don't want to go all the way downtown to Yonge-Dundas Square or don't want to pad LeBron James' bank account, give Vis-a-Vis a try. I hope this place does better than PIE did, but going the QSR route rather than full service restaurant/bar is the right way to go.
