THE PIZZA:

The pizza was ordered by slice rather than as a whole. It was a Sicilian-style pizza on a thick focaccia crust. Despite its thickness, the focaccia crust was relatively light and had a good amount of salt. The sauce was pretty intensely tomatoey, with very little sweetness. There was a decent amount of cheese and the quality of the meat was good. 

Pizza Rating: 7.9/10

THE POUTINE:

The poutine featured good quality frozen fries. They were very crispy and held up well to the other ingredients. There was a good amount of gravy. It was a pretty standard brown gravy with a nice consistency. It covered a generous amount of cheese curds.

Poutine Rating: 7.1/10

Overall, this was a fun spot to try. The pizza was unique for the area and could be someone’s favourite if the focaccia crust resonated with them (I suspect their Italian sandwiches are very good). The poutine is clearly not their specialty but it was definitely serviceable in spite of the absence of fresh-cut fries.

THE PIZZA:

The pizza featured a medium-thick crust. It was crispy in parts with occasional bits of char, but still relatively easy to chew. The sauce had a deep tomato flavour reminiscent of tomato paste. The pepperoni was moderately salty. The sausage seemed to be of good quality. The meats were actually mostly under the cheese, of which there was a fair amount. Small pieces of onions were laid on top of the pizza.

Pizza Rating: 7.8/10

THE POUTINE:

The poutine featured frozen fries that didn’t hold up very well to the gravy, which was fairly standard brown gravy. There was a good amount of shredded cheese.

Poutine Rating: 5.5/10

Overall, it’s hard to complain with any local (non-chain) pizza places these days, because they’ve become fairly obsolete. This pizza pretty tasty, though not necessarily my favourite. The poutine was just serviceable, but one shouldn’t expect much more than that from a pizza joint.
