Visited the place for our 10th wedding anniversary, as we got a GC gift from our friend.
Good vibe and great tasting food! ("Great" as in it exceeded my expectations). Kudos to the gentleman who brought our drinks. He poured my beer into the glass for me.
I was surprised by how well the chicken was fried (texture was a bit chewy, but wow timing was perfect). Pasta was great. Pizza was amazing but just not my preference (my wife loved it).
Service was very below average. No table visit from the initial tastecheck til the end. Not once the server asked for another drink (I'd already finished my beer by the first bite). I saw her playing around with the phone right next to us multiple times, but now I'm thinking it's a payment device. Wasn't really a pleasant sight though.
My wife asked for a dessert menu and for 13 minutes the server didn't come back to take the order. By the time she came we weren't interested in increasing any sales for her.
I wasn't disappointed by the experience (no offense but I just didn't know what to expect). Rather, I was surprised by how good the food tasted.
As a multi-unit restaurants operator, it was mixed feelings for me. Sad to see a place with such a great potential to degrade itself with the service level. At the same time, I'm happy to say that I don't need to consider this place as a serious competitor (different types of cuisines but hey, it's a competition for all)
I do recommend all to try to the venue, providing that the review helps with their...
Read moreUNA Pizza + Wine is next-level amazing. My partner and I usually hit up our regular spot before a Friday night movie at Cineplex, but it was packed, so I decided to give UNA a try based on its glowing reviews, and I’m so glad I did.
We had about 20 minutes before our movie, but the estimated pickup time for our two pizzas was 25-30 minutes. My partner thought we’d have to bail on the order, but I asked if there was any chance they could get our pizzas ready a little faster (even 20 minutes would have sufficed). The host immediately introduced me to Corbin, who went above and beyond. In less than 5 minutes, Corbin readied and assessed my order, and put it in my hands. I was honestly blown away by the level of service. The place was buzzing, and yet the team at UNA was working in sync to make my request happen without missing a beat.
I can’t even begin to explain how rare it is to get such friendly, attentive service, especially when a place is as busy as UNA was tonight. And don’t get me started on the food. The 4-Maggi pizza? Totally unlike anything I’ve had before—hands down the best cheese pizza I’ve ever tasted. The Margherita was equally incredible, and honestly, I’m still thinking about it.
From the lightning-fast service to the top-tier hospitality, UNA made my entire week. Thank you to the team for making such a great impression; I can’t wait to come back. You all truly deserve the recognition for creating such a...

Margarita pizza was a healthy size! Ingredients tastes fresh with the drizzle of pesto and basil. Exceeded my expectations! As did the ARANCINI cheese balls. Lightly battered with parm cheese on top with a cheese/pesto sauce at the bottom of the dish. Very flavourful and generous portion, may I add. Sipping on the rose sangria. The most tart out of the 3 the waiter mentioned. Slightly sweet but didn’t taste like juice. Very refreshing.
As for the space (forgot to take those photos) it was bright sitting on the patio with some good air circulation. Not too hot. Dogs are allowed! They’ve got a cute wall of polorids for all the doggy’s that come in. Relaxing atmosphere throughout the place but on the smaller side. Resos recommended to ensure you secure your spot. High top seating in the dining area as well.
Waiter was awesome. I think he mentioned he was the manager. I could be mistaken but either way, he helped create a memorable afternoon as my mom and I enjoyed a ladies lunch. We’ll be back to tried the fried garlic bread, turtles donuts and more refreshing cocktails!
Parking is plentiful considering the restaurant is located in the heart of south Edmonton common. Shopping surrounds...
