Pizzeria GAGA — Restaurant in Calgary

Seriously, guys. Seriously. If you are anywhere near Calgary, go here. It looks very unassuming; don’t be fooled. It’s a powerhouse landmark. It’s a small little shop stuck in a corner of downtown. There are maybe two places to sit and eat inside, and the decor is snappy, Eastern European-influenced. It’s clean and smells amazing. I am NOT kidding when I say this place has the BEST pizza. Honestly, it is my top 3 pizza experiences of ALL TIME. It was magical it was so good. The toppings are unique (no “meat lovers pizza” here) and the sauce is perfect—not too runny, not too thick. The price is comparable to other pizza places—even those not nearly as good as this is. But what sets this place far above the pack is the customer service. The owners are a husband/wife team and when we were there, the wife was making the pizzas in the back and the husband was running the counter. As soon as we walked in, he gave my kids chocolate candy bars from Eastern Europe, and he entertained us with his commentary with other customers. But the kicker was when we went to pay for our dinner after a very long day driving in from Montana, our credit card did not work. I got on the phone to see what was going on, and the owner came up to us and said “eat the food while it’s hot! The kids are hungry. I’ve sold lots of pizza today. Go home and enjoy it. Next time you’re in Calgary, come back again.” Seriously. He GAVE us dinner. We ordered four pizzas! We were blown away by his kindness. I don’t know any place in America where a restaurant would give food away to a foreign tourist because her credit card was glitching. So we already loved the pizza before we took a bite. And once we did eat it, we were forever hooked. This is one of those places that you don’t forget and you make a special effort to return to. Go for the pizza, stay for the customer...

🎩 Hats off to the best pizza place in YYC!

As a pizza lover, who understands and respects the delicacy of an artisan Italian pizza dough, I can assure that you will thank me for this recommendation!

Pros: You choose any pizza from the boards and all come with (i think) the same tomato sauce. It’s tasty, thick yet not heavy and smooth! The toping options come with a good range of variety and innovation, I mean I would have never expected in my life to put a FIG on a pizza and call it best pizza ever! 🤷🏻‍♀️

The owners are very friendly and have good manners, you will feel appreciated. They are also very punctual, if you be there late .. try not to! 😁 Ps., the atmosphere is nice, cozy and different, it almost gives a European cafe vibe. Cons; Food is perfect, the sauce that they use as a base for all the pizzas is a bit salty for me. But not in a way that would stop me from going there!🙂 They have only two tables available (8 sittings), so consider this when going with a large group. 😉 Lastly, they have NO delivery!! 😕😒

Pps., if you wanna be surprised in a good way try their home special🙃🙂😊☺️ I also added pics of the sitting areas and...
