Pizza Nova — Restaurant in Hamilton

I love how a guy who's only ever done one review (5 months ago) on Google knows the people who run this place by name. 1st warning sign of Google reviews!... As I post on many pizza places I have to say the "undercooked" reviews are very helpful. Unfortunately in today's greedy world there is no vetting on franchise owners! Worse still they have their friends and family do reviews to try and prop up not only their terrible businesses but also their unscrupulous business practices. Most of these places have the same type of owners and in turn the same terrible product. Maybe it's me but this is one reason I love Montreal, most pizza places are owned by Italians and Greeks who have been doing it for decades. Stick to what you are good at!! Cutting corners in service, toppings, and quality is not a recipe for success! It may earn you a few extra dollars at the start but it always gets exposed for what it is... GREED! In the end I'm happy to walk back out seconds after I walk in. Which is the main reason to never order takeout unless you are very familiar with the establishment. I don't pay a dime until I see the...

We’re all the way across a pretty big pond, but that doesn’t mean that Italy, the place where this all started, is ever far from our hearts and kitchens. It’s the country the Primucci family immigrated from, and we do our best to honour Italy’s  heritage and culinary traditions with the food we make and the great care we put into making it.

Domenic Primucci, the President of Pizza Nova, comes by his passion for Italian food, and the ingredients that create it, honestly. His father and uncles opened the original Pizza Nova in Scarborough, Ontario in 1963. The first franchised Pizza Nova opened in 1969, and since then, Pizza Nova and the Primucci family have helped hundreds of families own and operate their own Pizza Nova store. Even with a network of over 140 stores, Pizza Nova still operates under the simple mandate of serving the best food possible.

We do that by not only sourcing the freshest, locally grown ingredients, but also using the best recipes and traditional preparation methods. We invite you to Taste the Difference!

Grazie, buon appetito!

The call-centre style ordering method is fundamentally flawed. Instead of placing my order directly with the location, I had to place an order through their website, which then proceeded to send me a confirmation email saying that my order was placed and would be ready for pickup in 20-30 minutes. Fast forward 25 minutes and I arrive at the location, only to find that my order WASN’T placed, as they were missing ingredients.

Apparently the call-centre was supposed to call me to inform me of this. This didn’t happen, so instead, I wasted the time, gas, and journey through our random mid-March snow storm just to find out that I would have to return home to my family empty handed because there is poor communication from Pizza Nova, and their ordering system is flawed. No one at the location was willing to take responsibility for the mix-up as it “wasn’t there job to call me” about the ingredients missing.

All-in-all, extremely unprofessional and unfortunately would...
