Food tasted amazing and the service was wonderful! Loved the atmosphere as well. We had gotten the Primavera pizza, pazzo swizzle drink, and the pazzo garlic bread - all were made very well and was the perfect amount for two people. Definitely money spent well and a great time.

Service was extremely slow and underwhelming. Took quite a bit of time for server to greet us and take order for beverages. Once the food was brought to our table we didn’t see our server until it was time yo pay. Never came by to ask for more coffee or water refills. Crepes were over cooked. Not impressed.

Authenticity in service and in great taste. Truly enjoyed the selection around classics and new found favorites in pizza pies too!

Delicious food, wonderful service and great atmosphere! Looking forward to dining again next time we are in Stratford!

Delicious food, we like the pizza, spaghetti and salad. Also, we enjoyed the dessert. Very crowded and hard to get a seat or reservation.

High quality food with the best service and nice art atmosphere. My seafood Linguini dish was so good. Bf said one of the best pizza he ever got. The Risotto my brother got was awesome and my friends all like their dishes. Def we’ll come back if we visit Stratford again.

It has been years since l've been here but we will return again sooner than that. We ordered the following pizzas: Italian Stallion, Marco Polo, The Vatican- all delicious. Not ONE piece was left!

These are large pizzas that can easily be shared by 2 people but my son and husband gobbled theirs up.

My daughter has now found her favourite pasta and attested to only ordering the Penne Milano from now on.

I ordered a Ceasar Salad and enjoyed that the dressing was a bit thinner than most, l thought it could be a bit more garlicky. I would have loved some anchovies but didn't ask if that was a possibility.

Overall service was quick, friendly and EXCELLENT! Trully appreciated the water refills - were constant.

Next time we will order dessert but we were too full!

Make sure to make reservations because this place is busy. We had reserved for 5: 15 right after seeing RENT at the Stratford Festival.

We went to Pazzo twice while visiting Stratford for the weekend and could not recommend this restaurant enough. We had amazing pizza, delicious cocktails and desert. The restaurant has a great atmosphere and we received great service.

I think it's the only place worth eating at in Stratford. Nice job folks! Loved the pickles on the pizza, btw!

In town for the Statford Festival and was hungry after a long drive. Stopped in and loved this place! Great, fresh food and a tasty pizza crust. Definitely recommend!

A taste if Italy in Stratford. Was in town for a soccer tournament, was planning to over night but after a long day, and an early game in the morning we decided to stay. Looking for something to eat we found Pazzo's. We dined in the basement with the perfect late evening atmosphere. We ate with an Italian from our same town and he gave it his approval. The food tasted amazing and had good portion sizes. If you are in Stratford, find this place, it is worth it.

I had my 56th birthday here. They gave us the wine cellar. It was an awesome birthday Thanks Pazzos you never disappoint.

I had a a small pizza and pop and I think garlic bread. I will admit I actually hated the pizza and when I got the bill I was in shock considering how bad it was. The service was good though and the atmosphere was nice, if I ever happen to go back I think I'll be trying the spaghetti because I saw alot of people eating it and it definitely looked delicious. I'm sorry about the bad review but I'm just being honest, it may be different now because it was last year when I was there.

Not only were the food, drinks, and service excellent at Pazzo, but when we went out for dinner last weekend after having seen a show and I left my sunglasses behind in our booth, one of the servers actually ran more than a block to catch up with me and make sure I didn't leave them behind. I couldn't believe this! And I really appreciated it! We will certainly be back.

Very tasty pizza and pasta! Can't go wrong with anything on the menu! Great place for a friendly lunch, date, or for a gathering!

Incredible experience! I reached out to Pazzo with one weeks notice for a business lunch for 50 people. Meghan the manager was an absolute pleasure to work with. She reserved half the restaurant for us and assisted with narrowing down the menu to ease the flow of the day.
So much of the menu is affordable that we kept all the pizza and pasta options. And most of the apps.
Literally every item that was brought out, from the salads, to the crostinis, the pizzas, drinks and desserts were some of the best I've ever eaten. Every member from our group was raving about the pasta, even the pickiest of eaters. Every member of the Staff was accommodating and all smiles.
It was an absolute pleasure and we are so happy to have chosen Pazzo for our lunch. We will certainly be back. Thank you again Meghan for all your hard work and hospitality!
It doesn't go unnoticed!

Had a great experience at Pazzo. Great atmosphere, very unique looking place. The food came out hot and was delicious. Shout out to our server Shawn, great knowledge and recommendations!

Just a fantastic dining experience. Loved the cellar vibe and excellent service. And just great food to top it off. I don't think I've ever had mussels cooked this well. Actual tender mussels. Sampled my wife's penne and just as amazing. Great spot, can't wait to go back again.

The crust was thin and done to perfection. Sauces and flavours were all on point. Definitely one of the best pizzas I've had. We had the Italian Stalion which had prosciutto, Italian sausage, pancetta, spicy calabrese, roasted garlic, and pazzo's fresh herbs. We went in for take-out and the bar attendant still asked us if we wanted water or anything while we waited. We sat outside on the patio to eat the pizza, and it was a good view to people watch and take in the small town vibe.

Would have been 5 star, but service was very slow. Seems like a great spot tho. Spaghetti and meat balls was great! Pizza's looked very good as well.

Friendly staff, clean family restroom, food variety not great. Did not see kids menu in the main menu (we was with a 2yrs old kid), so we ordered:
SPAGHETTI AND MEATBALLS- good. Pasta al dente (as I like), good tomato sauce.

ROASTED RED PEPPER AND TOMATO WITH BASIL PESTO DRIZZLE - very good. I love tomato soup. Every restaurant I go, I order tomato soup when they have it.

FUNGHI CROSTINI- very good. My kiddo loved the mushrooms on it. The goat cheese ricotta spread was amazing. This mixture with ricotta makes goat cheese flavour less stronger. Perfect combination.

CAESAR SALAD- just fine. Nothing special.

STRATFORD PILSNER - great. Mild bodied, perfect carbonation, delicate and refreshing.

Overall was a good experience.

Admit food was tasty but Mother’s Day lunch service was horrible. One person in our table of five was not served meal at all No apologies or suggestions to compensate when we asked for bill just told us they won’t charge his lunch. Wine was poured for us once and no follow up afterwards. Not first time service was bad. I’d recommend take out only

The place was busy as it was around supper time. I simply wanted to have a latte coffee and it was excellent. Quite impressed that needless how busy they were they could fill a simple order like this.

I went for dinner April 29th with a friend.

I ordered braised beef short ribs, mashed potatoes with mascarpone, roasted squash with braised radicchio on top of the squash.
I first tasted the potatoes which, disappointingly, were ice cold as if they had come straight from the fridge.
The squash and radicchio although very tasty were also cold and yet the beef was not. The dish was sent back to the kitchen and returned several minutes later with still ice cold potatoes but now accompanied by hot gravy sauce poured around the potatoes. The squash was still cold but surprisingly the radicchio had mostly disappeared from on top of the squash with just a couple of very small bits remaining. This kind of looked as though it had been picked off perhaps by a hungry staff member! Lol! Back to the kitchen it went a second time and during that wait because I was ravenous, I sampled my dinner companion's pizza which was fantastic. Loved the perfect thin crust and the toppings combination.
Sadly when my meal returned, the mashed potatoes were still stone cold which my dinner companion verified upon tasting.
The beef was good and I proceeded to finish that. The veggies were flavourful but only somewhat warm.

Hot food or, at the very least, nicely warmed food should not be that complicated for a restaurant of this calibre.

The server was excellent and very professional, going above and beyond to try to rectify this, but hey, she was not directly in control of what was happening in the kitchen. At this point, I was feeling like the kind of customer everyone despises and could not bring myself to ask her to send it back a third time. But with no prompting from us, she offered to have that meal removed from the bill which was the appropriate action.

Truly I was dumbfounded at the carelessness of the kitchen staff.

I was sad to leave there still feeling kind of hungry.

The server informed me that this choice was soon to be removed from the menu. Probably wise!

This post was generated by a very seasoned traveller and restaurant afficionado.

I would stick to the pizza if I were ever to get up the courage to dine there again. After all it is a pizzeria.
