Downtown pizzeria located on Phillips Square. I've been going there for years, and though there is better pizza out there, this is pretty darn good. Over 70 different pizza combinations can satisfy anyone's taste. The outdoor patio is busy, but makes for a nice evening. Because it's a busy spot though, don't expect to sit around all night. Service is... more

They now have a selection of 75 pizzas. The Sumarino (Italian sausage sub) is great too, never tried the calzones though. Place is always packed for lunch. Get there early, especially if you want to sit outside on the patio. Considering the flow, you could say service is good. Downside is the beer on tap: Belle Gueule is not that... more

Il Focolaio Pizza was conveniently located next to my hotel, Le Square Phillips. As a casual dining restaurant, Il Focolaio more than met our needs. Although the extensive menu options may be a bit overwhelming, the pizzas are amazing and the salads are fresh and light.

Obviously though, I keep... more

The Pizza Milanese (with artichokes, olives, sauce and cheese) was great, the beer was cold and, as I said, the service was second to none. I will definitely... more

We ate pizza at Pizza Il Focolaio twice while staying at Le Square Phillips Hotel in Montreal in late June. They offer approx. 40 different pizza combinations cooked in a wood-burning oven. We are very fussy about our pizza and thought theirs was great! An added plus: They have a covered outdoor seating area right on the square, along with... more

This place has 70 types of pizza, all cooked to order, and, if the two that we sampled are any indication, all good. If you're looking for reasonably priced pizza with a twist in downtown Montreal, this is your spot. more
