Pizza Maru — Restaurant in Toronto

Tried this place for the first time on a monday night as a post-workout meal with a buddy. We arrived quite late so the shop was pretty empty and we had the whole place to ourselves.

There was one waitress on duty for the front of house but she was quite attentive to us and super friendly.

We ordered signature shrimbul pizza (w/ bread crumble crust), a crazy shrimp pizza (w/ regular crust) and soy fried chicken to share.

Soy fried chicken: The chicken was quite crispy. The chicken could've been juicier imo. I would say the chicken was good but doesn't beat any specialized KFC place like BB.q Chicken. The portion size was decent.

Signature shrimbul pizza w/ bread crumble crust: This was a super interesting pizza to me. It was definitely sweeter than what I'm accustomed to. The bulgogi was VERY soft and not overcooked which was great. I do wish there would've been more shrimps than sweet potatoes as toppings even though it tasted great altogether (but for the price, they should've given us more shrimps). This is not for everybody. Even the ranch sauce on this pizza is kinda sweet so if you're a stickler for italian tasting tomato sauce this pizza is not for you lol.

Crazy chicken shrimp pizza w/ regular crust: We got this pizza in 16" so we weren't able to put a special crust on it. I will say, there were definitely more shrimps on this pizza but for me, this pizza was WAY TOO spicy for me. My friend can eat really spicy and even he thought it was quite spicy (he eats buldak sauce like ketchup at home). I do think it was cooked well though for what it's worth and the waitress DID warn us that the pizza would be mega spicy LOL.

Would I be back? Yea I think so. The pizza did taste good. The prices are expensive though so I'm definitely not visiting as much as I would a Domino's or...

Ordered the Golden Chicago Pizza and Rose Cheese Spagetti for take out.

The pizza does not look anything like the picture on their website. It is different than the typical pizza in that it's sweet instead of savory. If you haven't tried a 'sweet' pizza before, it's worth it. Otherwise, over $30 for a pizza is not good value for your money.

Their website said there's shrimp in the spagetti but we couldn't find any. It's only $10 so you can expect the portion is small.

Finding parking at the plaza they are in is almost impossible. There are may be less than 10 spots and we guessed most of them are already occupied by the staff who works in the restaurants in that plaza. Nearby parking is hard to find too.

The customer service is terrible. The front staff looks grumpy and sleepy and unfriendly. No greetings or thank you or anything. The only good thing is he said it would take about 15 minutes for my order and that they delivered.

There are only about 10 seats inside the place and they are not very comfortable. It's more of a take out place than a dine in one.

Overall, if you have never tried the so-called "Korean" "sweet" pizza before, try it once. Otherwise, it's not worth the...

This was our 3rd pizza order from this new Korean pizza restaurant. Past 2 orders were great. We enjoyed them very much.

However, this 3rd order & will be the LAST ORDER, The Kaboom Cheese Bomb pizza was just TOO SALTY. We had one bite and had to throw away the rest ($36+tax+delivery charge+tip) My 82 year-old mother said it was the worst pizza she ever had in her whole life. When I called the restaurant just to tell them to be more careful from now on and try to modify so other customers DO NOT have to experience the same situation as us, I was told that it was SUPPOSED TO BE like that.

I'm very disappointed by the restaurant's reaction. I did not request for any compensation. All I wanted is just a SINCERE APOLOGY!!!

Also, I placed this order through Uber Eats. I've used Uber Eats many many times and their Delivery Navigation is always wrong!!! So we always have to wait about 10 minutes longer than expected delivery time and drivers get lost often. (Even if our Location is so easy to find) They should fix this problem ASAP!!! Thank you all for reading this long review! Hope this can help you decide and all of you could enjoy the...
