Brigade Pizzeria Napolitaine

Great place for some really nice pizzas. Vegan friendly place. We've been here a couple of times before the pandemic when we used to take a class at YMCA next door and loved the pizzas and the ambiance. Came here for the first time after the pandemic and the place is still the same. We tried Viva Vegan and Rick (vegetarian). Loved both. We also got the Cannoli which is also great, especially the Pistachio one . However they have this weird rule that you can order Cannoli only one, four or six. So if you want to order two or three, you can only order one after the other. But that will take a lot of time. The staff was great. There's street parking outside which will generally have some spots available. Highly recommended.

This is by FAR the best pizza place I’ve ever found. It tastes fresh, the crust is baked to perfection and they make it in a wood oven. The atmosphere is really nice, whether you wanna do a night out with friends or study while eating delicious pizza, this is the place for you! You also get to choose your own toppings. I definitely recommend.

It's an excellent place to take out the pizza/dine if it's open because my experience with home delivers is not good as it loses the wood-fired taste and fragrance. The Neapolitan-style pizzas are my favorite. I am never disappointed with the pizzas here. You can make your pizzas, I usually go for the regular red sauce, but I recently tried pesto base I loved it. Garlic bread is doughy and woodfired baked. The seasonings are optional.

Ordering a Margherita pizza is like being naked - there’s not much to hide. With just dough, sauce, cheese and basil you gotta nail it… and they did! I added banana peppers for some heat and it was awesome. The other pizza was the Calabrese with some spicy honey, you could really taste the sweetness! Fast, cheap and delicious! PS, don’t bother going to Pizzaria Napolitana in little Italy - $18 for a margherita are you joking?!

We were so excited to drive all the way to downtown to try the deep dish Detroit style. We read all the reviews before coming in. Even though, there were some 1star reviews saying that the deep dish isnt cooked for long enough, we were still impressed by the long reply by the owner and how much he seems to know about his product. However, his knowledge does not reflect on the deep dish pizza we bought today. My heart dropped when opening the pizza box knowing that we just paid $28 for a pizza which dough doesnt even smell as good as any pizza not cooked in the oven. It tastes like a frozen pizza. Pizza Hut is even better tbh. I havent tried their other pizza but dont recommend their deep dish 🙃 The attached photos show how soggy and thick the dough is...

Haven't been to this place in a couple of years (pre-COVID) so was excited to eat their pizza once again! My lady friend always has a Margherita and I ordered the Butcher (Italian Sausage, Ham & Bacon). My pizza was somewhat overdone but quite edible. Unfortunately my friend's pizza was extremely overdone to the point of being "burnt toast".(see photos). Needless to say, it was another major disappointment to dining outside the home since COVID restrictions were relaxed. ADDENDUM - in reply to Brigade's response to my initial posting above. Hello JD, We have been patronizing your establishment for a few years and was always very satisfied with your pizzas. Of course, that was pre-COVID days when we lived in the Plateau so it's a short trip via STM bus. However we're now living in St-Leonard and the trip took over one hour but we figured it would be worth it because of the high quality of your pizza. In fact, my lady friend says your Margherita pizza is one of BEST she's ever eaten due to the crust which she knows it's because you use "00-flour". That's why she was in shock and so disappointed to get this very burnt pizza. She noticed that everybody else's pizzas looked the same so she was reluctant to complain. In hindsight and your comments, we should have brought this matter to Grace's attention. Also, my sincere apology for the "lack of heat" remark (which I have since deleted from my original review). It was written in the "heat of the moment" (no pun intended). So I've upgraded this review to 3-stars and hopefully the next time we come - it will be the usual "Five Star" experience like those prior visits to your pizzeria! .
