Danforth Pizza House makes some of the best pizza east of the DVP. Take-out is the name of the game here as the service is quick and the prices are reasonable.

Danforth Pizza house has the best Pizza however everything is very old school, no delivery, and if the phones get rammed with orders expect busy signals for at least a half hour.
Top notch ingredients and top notch taste

Extremely rude owner. Warning: no affection may be shown in the restaurant. Gave my girlfriend a hug and he kicked us out. Toppings are extremely sparse and low quality. Pizza is not authentic, way too much crust.

Personally I believe this is the best Pizza in the city. This is by no means a gormet Pizzaria. The shop itself is a mear hole in the wall one man shop with absoluetely no curb appeal and a cold atmostphere inside. - I know, once you've made the sale, stop selling...

I admit it may not be for everyone... but that being said there are many different opinions when it comes to food.

The pizza itself is litterally unlike any other pizza you've tried. I know that is a bold statement, but it is most definitely true. Though I admit that the toppings themselves are not of great quality. That is hardly where your attention will be focused. The dough/crust is hand made and so authentically italian it beings be back with every bite. The crust of this Pizza is akin to the fine Italian breads in bakeries. Angelo bakes it the same every time, just perfect. Lastly, the cheese... Wow. This is the x factor of Angelo's masterpieces. Every pizza gets two handfuls of curded mozzarella. Some may find it greasy, unfortunately that's just the way it is.

An absolute 5 out of 5 food and a 5 out of 5 for experience. Although the atmosphere may be viewed as cold, its very authentic and even more consistant than McDonalds.

When I first went to Danforth Pizza House it was on the advice of an Italian neighbour. The pizza reminded me of Pasquales pizza on Wilson Ave in Downsview 40yeats ago. Angelo is a kind man of few words who insists on original old style ingredients. Old style pizza with returning customers for 30 or 40 years. I've been ordering for 18.

Get a room, axe grinder. Best pizza in the city, period.

Pizza was pretty good - reminded me of Libretto, but thicker. Brace yourself for a total lack of customer service and the absence of all "restaurant social cues" - just an old man in a ramshackle space on the Danforth making pizzas.
