    The most European pizza place in Edmonton, and perhaps the most delicious! I recommend starting with a margherita pizza if it is your first time there.

    Absolutely Great! First time users of this place should note that you are required to seat yourself and once seated go to the front counter to order your meal. First time I was rather confused.

    This place defines gourmet pizza. After you've enjoyed the most amazing and authentic pizza in town, order the tiramisu with a nutella mocha for a real treat.

    Don't eat your crust, save it for the end of your meal and dip it in the honey that they have by the cutlery and straws

    If possible, ask for outdoor seating. MUCH quieter, enclosed, and heated!

    When you get that "I'm craving something great!" feeling the answer is always clear...the Vesuvio.
