Off Eleven Pizza + Eats

I told my server (the owner?) when I arrived that I was a first time diner, brought in by the positive reviews here. He made the curious choice to take this opening to complain to me about his negative reviews (looking at you bun-to-chicken-parm-ratio-guy). I get that making conversation is a skill, but complaining to customers about customers is really not the best way to fill that gap. What a great opportunity that would have been to tell me about your favourite review! The choice of toppings did not disappoint - they've an interesting selection of recommended pairings, and build-your-own options you won't find elsewhere (although topping prices are oddly missing from the menu - he had to look them up). He was also gracious about more of this and less of that requests. Loved the novelty of outdoor dining on their patio, watching planes come and go. The end product was not a bad pizza, but not as good as the reviews & pictures had me hoping. I see pictures of puffy-edged crusts that leave me wondering what's changed. My thin crust didn't rise at all, to the point where I wondered whether it was even a yeast crust; The texture and salty flavour were more reminiscent of a boxed baking powder kit pizza. Still, the sauce and toppings were tasty and plentiful, and the view was charming. Here's hoping that crust was a one-off experiment gone awry, and the next new customer doesn't get an earful about this review 😉

Have to say the Pizza is very good, however I've changed up my order a couple of times to try other things on the menu and went with the House Made Chicken Parmigiana Sandwich on a bun. The Chicken was not bad, but it was served on a dinner roll. I think it was a brown dinner roll. So the bun to chicken ratio was way way off. The first time I thought maybe they ran out of proper buns, so curiously I ordered it up a few weeks later... same bun. off Eleven, do your selves' a favor, pull this from what otherwise is a very good Menu, until you can get a proper size bun that suits the sandwich.

Visited Lake Simcoe Regional Airport and heard good things about Off Eleven so decided to get a pepperoni pie for lunch. I asked for a well done pizza, and got exactly what I asked for at first sight, but then when I went to pick it up; there was flop. First bite impressions: nothing wrong with the pepperoni, crust was thin, cheese was good, and sauce was on point which rounds it to a 7.4. The resources inside the establishment seem a little cramped, particularly the ovens which make the pizza and holds it back from being in the 8's. A suggestion moving forth: consider a stand alone outdoor space where pizzas are made to get a true authentic wood fire or brick oven taste and likely a lots of more visitors past the airport year round.

By far the best pizza I've ever had in my life. Served hot straight after being made, ingredients were awesome and sauce finished off the flavor. I would drive 20 minutes from where I live just to have some more!

Ordered an assortment of their pizzas and was not disappointed! All of them had loads of toppings, really hearty sauces, and crust was quality and the perfect thickness. Really enjoyed all of the variations on the classics. 10" pizzas are a great idea too to be able to try a few flavours. Super easy to order online and set your pick up time too. Highly recommend!

We’ve been meaning to try this spot at Lake Simcoe Airport for a while since it has had good reviews and today was the day! Started with delicious squash soup, which is highly recommended. Then we had the Arrabiata and the Mediterranean Chicken (white sauce) pizzas - amazing flavourful sauce/toppings and cooked at a properly high temperature so that the crust blisters. Paired it with a lovely, fresh, fruity Provençal Rose from our cellar (BYOW since they have very reasonable corkage at around $11). Overall a great Friday night experience if you want to explore just north of Barrie and you get a perfect view of the runway while dining.

First time here two weeks ago. Hoping to see planes but it isn't quite Heathrow. Food was outstanding. Best pizza I've had outside of Italy. My husband had the Tropical pizza, pic left, and I had Prosciutto and Mushroom. Manager Tim was welcoming and cared that our food was perfect.

Decided to head home early from Mara Provincial Park due to gloomy weather and kids requested pizza. A friend in the group found Off Eleven Pizza on maps and we all decided to check it out as it had good ratings. You may get confused when you drive into the airport. You are at the correct place. Its at the far corner of the building. It was worth the extra drive, so do not hesitate. Lots of seating, and lots of parking. We tried a whole bunch of different pizzas as there was 13 of us. The vegetarian pizza, Margerita, Arabiata and the Tropical were the favorites. 5 star atmosphere, 5 star service and great food. Tim, Bill and Toufiq served us with a smile on their faces. Our 10 pizzas were out in amazing speed. Vegetarians of the group were really happy with their food which is a rare happening. A must try!!!
