Pizzeria Aléa — Restaurant in Montreal

Very happy to finally have a great pizza place in the area. We discovered this place two weeks ago on one of our confinment walks. Yesterday was the 4th time that we ordered there which probably says everything about this place.

What we like about this place is that it not only has great tasting pizza but its also a great balance between the preferences of me and my girlfiend. While it offers some more classical pizza options for me who is more of a conservative when it comes to eating, it also offers a lot of creative and interesting pizza options for my girlfriend who is more of foodie and likes it a bit more experimental (I have to admit that even I liked several of the "experimental" pizzas she has been ordering)

Obviously tast of the food is the main driver of us coming back, but I don't think its the only reason we are enjoying Pizzeria Alea so much. For us two other factors really make us feel like this supporting this place even more:

owners: very friendly and allways good for a nice chat but very attentive not to force you into a conversation so if one day you just feel like picking up your pizza thats is as fine as staying a few minutes to talk a bit

covid: they take their responsibility of being a place with a lot of customer contact very seriously and really try to minimize the risk in any possible way. Wearing masks, aeriating the restaurant, conciously keeping sure distance is kept, offering desinfectant, asking people to come back when pizza is ready, ...

Really love this place and can only encourage everyone to...

Kept on driving by and hubby decided to give this place a try. I was hesitant but pleasantly surprised. If you are looking for that bubbly style neopolitain crust perhaps this is not your place however their crust was amazing nonetheless. Their toppings were of high quality and out of the box . It was honestly a top pizza experience so glad I finally gave it a try. The pizza crust reminded me of a more Northern Italian style pizza but the toppings had such a finesse as far as both the amount and the placement. You could tell these guys are passionate about what they are doing. To both Eric and Fred thank you for a wonderful date night out . The locals are truly lucky to have a place like this in the neighborhood. Will be back oh and that vanilla...

We really enjoyed coming here for their pizza. They changed their menu and added some seasonal pizzas which is always great but they removed one we really loved and come back for everytime. It was a raclette style pizza with ham (can't remember the name but it perhaps started with Alea?). We hope it returns back on the menu soon because we honestly and sadly wont go back if its not on there. On another note, tonight we had Trout Tarare which was really delicious. We also grabbed the Alea V and Magarita pizzas. Sadly the Alea V was too salty and the Magarita pizza was bland and missing seasoning. The service is always top and everyone is so...
