The Tangerine Tortoise

All I can say is WOW!! My boyfriend discovered this place with his friend and said it was the best pizza in the region, so I had to go and try it. I suggest making a reservation since it’s a pretty small place. It looks unassuming, but it’s hands down the best pizza in the region. I got the asiago and prosciutto pizza and my boyfriend got the cup n char pepperoni pizza and they were phenomenal! The flavour of the crust alone is amazing. It’s a quaint hidden gem and we’re lucky we live so close! If you’re looking for a pizza spot in St. Catharine’s, this is it!!

If you drove past you wouldn't even recognize this place, but it's truly a hidden gem. We got the pepperoni and meatza, both were incredible. The toppings were bountiful and fresh, and the dough was phenomenal. If you want a larger size pizza (16") you have to call ahead, but we found that two 12" did the trick for 4 people. If you're someone who appreciates a good pizza this is a great spot to check out.

Found this hidden gem after shopping at the Niagara Outlet mall. It is everything and more! We had the Asiago & Prosciutto pizza and the Pepperoni and they were to die for! I live in Toronto, so we have our fair share of great pizzas however, this certainly is an easy favourite now! I will definitely make the venture back! The ambiance is also great! Music playlist was definitely on point and set the vibe. Thank you!!

The food was simply delicious. Amazing and delicious pizzas. The salad was a perfect mix of creamy with a bite of sweetness and acidity to cut through. Very delicious. Tried pepperoni, prosciutto, and mushroom pizzas and loved all three. Would absolutely return and 100% recommend. Depending on number of guests, you may have to wait a little for your food. We thought the wait time was reasonable, as you can see everything happening right in front of you, and most importantly, it was worth the drive and the wait. Thank you again for an awesome experience! 🙌🏼

The best pizza I’ve had in ages! Highly recommend getting a reso if you plan to visit after 4/5pm as it’s a small and popular place. You can absolutely tell the owner enjoys what he does. Even with the slight wait we had, the service was excellent. We had the hot pineapple and meatza pies.

Absolute terrific experience! This hidden gem is one amazing eatery. Disguised as an appliance store, this discreet, Hip, Neopolitan style pizza joint is simply the best! Fresh, quality ingredients all formulated by a master chef that has amazing skills. The owner is super friendly and down to earth and even took the time to not only tell me what products he uses, but also his processes to create these masterpieces. This is a must try!

This appeared on my for you page for tiktok as it's an old appliance store on the outside but great pizza on the inside. Pre-ordered my pie showed to up on time. Pizza and pop. Have to say it was a very good pizza. Very good service. They use the grate tomato sauce from California and the owners seems very passionate. The pie was very very good

This is the absolute best pizza experience you can treat yourself too. The dough is a 3 day process, all the ingredients are fresh and made in house. Reservations are a great idea as I can see this place filling up. It is disguised as an appliance store. This pizza is an absolute must. I had the hot pineapple pizza and everything about it was perfect. The crust on this pizza is the star of the show. Great place to bring someone. A pizza experience you will never forget.
