Its a cool tiny place. Love the patio set up and especially limits parking space for their customers especially is downtown. Thank you for the accommodation. But good lucks if they are busy you might not be able to find free parking except looking for P parking on the streets. But all their Pizza is delicious 👍 even when we bring home and reheat it on the tiny Oven is still yum. My children's love the Big Cheese Pizza, we also have Peter Piper, Pineapple express, Three little pigs lol cute name 😅

Really good quality pizza with excellent service. The crust is amazing, completely perfect and I cannot suggest more that you need to get the garlic dip. It is so so good. All the pizzas we had were really good - had Three Little Pigs, Fungus Among Us and Peter Piper. Couldn’t recommend it more! One pizza is more than enough for most people. I had 3 and was very full. Parking wise there is some parking spots at a 45 minute time limit, not a huge lot.

I recently visited Slowhand Pizza and tried two pizzas: Double Trouble and Peter Piper. The Double Trouble was a solid Detroit-style pizza with good flavor, though it didn’t quite have that ‘wow’ factor for me. However, my friends absolutely loved the Peter Piper, saying it was flavorful and unique. One must-try addition is their garlic cream dip—it really takes the experience to the next level! The atmosphere was nice, and the staff were friendly, making it a pleasant dining experience overall. I’d recommend Slowhand Pizza for a casual night out or if you’re craving Detroit-style pizza with a twist.

The BEST Detroit style pizza in Toronto! The sourdough truly makes this a celebration of bread while the the toppings were so flavourful but not heavy. Highly recommend the three little pigs

AMAZING SOURDOUGH PIZZAS! Whether you are vegetarian or a meat lover, this is the place to be especially if you're an avid fan of pizza! The store it self gives you a kind of cozy feeling of sitting in bed, eating pizza and watching movie on a rainy day. The pizzas may look small but one can fill your entire stomach to the brim! My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our first time here and the flavours and unique pairings of ingredients, are the reasons why we will definitely be back and more than once!

Delicious pizza! Sourdough crust so it’s a bit thick but it’s so flavourful and delicious. Had the Peter pie and three pigs. I expected to like the three pigs more but the Peter pie was amazing. By the end though your jaw is tired from chewing but still delicious

Finally got to try Slowhand pizza after hearing and seeing all the hype. We ordered the Peter Piper, Pineapple Express and Fungus Amongus along with their hot honey and garlic cream dip. Absolutely loved the Peter Piper and Pineapple Express with the two sauces, I was a little disappointed with the Fungus Amongus as I kept hearing how great it was. However, the crusts of these pizzas were crazy good, if you like a thick crust pizza you definitely need to check this place out, my friend said this was the best they’ve had! Definitely recommend going with a few friends so that you can try a different ones, they only do whole pizzas that come with 4 slices. The vibe at this place is also amazing especially during the summer time!

I made a three hour trip just to have this sourdough Detroit-style pizza and I would do it everyday if I can. People in the vicinity have no idea how rare this is and how lucky they are to have access to this gem on a daily basis. I wolfed down the entire pizza and in addition to enjoying the complexities in flavor of every single bite brought forth by the use of high maintenance sourdough, after I was done I didn't feel dead full and could have easiky gone for seconds. I also felt great for the remainder of the day and it didn't wear me down. But really, it's all about the taste here. I only go to sourdough pizzerias and it's so hard to find one. But for Detroit style it's downright impossible to find one. Thank you for making this decision and you deserve all the success in the world. Please always keep it sourdough. Also: Thank you for having all-beef pepperoni as an option!
