About Pizza O'Clock

Freshly baked vegetarian kosher pies hit the counter straight from the oven on Carlisle Street. Regulars bank on the homemade dough—crisp along the rim, chewy through the centre, and ladled with rich house sauce. Slices skip the meat entirely across picks like the spicy Avi’s Special and the cheese-laden Village, backed by sides of seasoned potato wedges and golden fries. Late on Saturday nights for Motsei Shabbes, the room packs out with neighborhood families picking up piping hot cardboard boxes.

  • Kosher Vegetarian Baking: Certified vegetarian pies baked with homemade dough, savoury house tomato sauce, and zero meat toppings.
  • Motsei Shabbes Service: Open post-Sabbath on Saturday nights for hot pizza, sides, and takeout boxes.
  • Signature Pies & Sides: Locals turn to spiced Avi's Special alongside loaded Village pies and hot wedges straight from the oven.
