Crudo Pizza & Panuozzo

An unreasonably long wait for a completely average meal.

The service was so slow, and the food was mediocre, that ordering two days in advance and paying, left me feeling rather disappointed. I got 4 cold sandwiches for 120 dollars. The most disappointing part was the fact that walkins recieved their food before I did, even after checking in for a update on my order 3 seperate times while I waited at the order desk. Each time I was assured my food would be made shortly. Here's the kicker, my food was ready, well before I recieved it. Don't forget I never stepped away from the order desk. I personally watched my sandwiches being loaded in to the box and being placed aside. I had a feeling that was my order which is why I checked in three several times, each time providing my first and last name so they "could check on my order". All the while they were sitting right there, so much for customer service. The sad part of all my time spent at the order desk, I literally watched at least 80 sandwiches being made. One thing I observed while patiently waiting, was that when the "rush" subsides you can see how this place may have recieved it's hype. The sandwiches are made with pride, constructed with passion, assembled with precision. Unfortunately that same degree of execution is not consistent across each order. I'd love to say this was my first visit, but it was not. I reserved my review prior to give this a second place a second chance. Sadly the only thing consistent was the level of my disappointment.

Every panuozzo you order is with freshly baked pizza dough . They are very generous with the ingredients and for $20, it's a pretty big sandwich. I was only able to finish half so you could definitely share. Only down side was it didn't have any sauce in it, so it lacked a lot of flavors despite having fresh ingredients. It would be perfect if they added pesto/truffle paste or any sauce really. Otherwise it just tastes like a caprese salad.

Drove 1.5 hours to finally try this place out after seeing all over TikTok!!! The cafe crema was an amazing little dessert treat. Pizza was delicious but the crust. The crust!! I don’t eat crust but this one I did 😍
Sandwich was packed with mortadella, lots of pistachio sauce and tons of cheese. Again, the bread!!!! Brought a tuna pizza home for tomorrow and the mortadella pizza for a friend. Who said it was the closest pizza to a New York pizza she’s ever had.
Delicious food, comfortable seating, and the young lady serving us was lovely and patient while I tried to make up my mind. Missed out on the meatball sandwich we wanted, but will go back earlier next time.

Value, freshness and portion is perfect. If I could do 4.5 I would. Crudo is superb and tasty. Wish there was an option to do a half/half sandwich so I can taste as many sandwiches as possible. One sandwich easily satisfied 2 adults. Can't wait to come back to done in.

It was huge and really good! We got the Estate and Mortadella. I personally liked the Estate a bit more but both were lovely. It was really filling - 3 of us went, got 2 sandwiches, and still packed half of it home hahaha.

Freshest ingredients and that bread/pizza crust they use for their Panuozzos and pizzas…fire! Had the Tuna pizza (believe that it works!), mortadella with pistachio cream and stracciatella sandwich, spicy salami with spicy eggplant and hot peppers (damn hot!). It was all fabulously delicious! Do yourself a massive favour and just go already!

I had the best sandwich I’ve ever eaten in Toronto at Crudo. This place is a hidden gem! The quality of the ingredients is outstanding, and you can really taste the difference. Everything is fresh, simple, and full of flavor – true Italian excellence. Highly recommend it if you’re into authentic Italian food. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Food is good, I ve had better sandwiches but the service is by far the worst I ve ever experienced. They ll ask for your number and never message you when your food is ready and on top of that when you end up picking your food they don’t apologize for making you wait 40 minutes and they re very snobby and rude from the moment you walk in. Definitely won’t be going back

The food is excellent but... The staff is a bunch of ignorant, snotty little teenage girls, the place is tiny and cramped and it's minimum and hour long wait for your food !
I'll absolutely NEVER go back

Wow...What you have seen on social media is all true. Awesome quality and generous quantity. Too many sandwhiches to choose from and I'll just have to make my way down the list. Bread was crunchy and supple all at the same time. The meats are excellent quality and the fresh mozzarella makes a huge difference and contrast to the rich meat. Can't wait for my next visit.

I recently tried Crudo Sandwich and Pizza, and I’m genuinely blown away! The sandwiches were fresh, flavourful, and made with high-quality ingredient. the perfect balance of texture and taste. And the pizza? Simply delicious! The crust was perfectly crisp, and the toppings were generous and well-balanced. You can truly taste the care they put into every bite. I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend to anyone who appreciates great food and friendly service!

Oh wow! This was my first reaction! I just got this place randomly while heading home! I just saw it along the way and told to myself, let's give it a try! The "subs" here were absolutely fantastic! A bit overpriced tho, but I guess it is because of the quality of the ingredients they use! You can even feel/taste the quality on each bite! My "subs" were absolutely fantastic! So tasty! The service was phenomenal! They were very friendly with me even when it was my first time and I had no idea what to expect! Highly recommended and I'll come back again, like often! Try the specialty of the house (prosciutto)!

We finally made to Crudo. After a long day at the ROM and building up an appetite, we headed to Crudo. Everyone must go and meet the wonderful people who greeted us like family. The food was absolutely out of this world and the portions are exactly what u see on their social media. The bread fresh from the oven and steaming, the porchetta was juicy and melt in ur mouth. The other sandwiches we sampled were amazing. I highly recommend a visit to Crudo. Don’t wait just go and enjoy.

I have worked in the service industry for 8+ years. I went there on Saturday night after all the hype i have seen online. I got 2 sandwiches, both were amazing. I don’t understand reading some of the reviews on here. It’s $20 a sandwich that’s about 1.5x the size of subway and it’s filled with REAL freshly sliced meats from Italy, fresh delicious bread, and don’t even get me started on how good the cheese is…

Your sub probably costs $14 and it’s processed garbage. This place is not expensive for what you get. The wait time is long, and worth it, however it can be avoided by ordering online. I went at night and saw them taking orders all the way up until 7:55pm.

I was respectful at the counter(unlike most people) and tipped $5, around 11%, and was offered coffee, espresso, water, etc for free. The staff here are the same when I show up for lunch, or for dinner, they work long hours but they are amazing.

Amazing work crudo team.

Ordered the pizza which was expensive for 4 slices but that's besides the point. We ate a slice warm which had no taste. Then we waited for it to cool off and had our second piece. We were able to taste a little bit of the sauce but it was still tasteless. We also got the mortadella Panuozzo which was much better than their pizza for a similar price. They put a lot of meat in the Panuozzo which is nice and the pistachio sauce helped alleviate some of the dryness. Definitely worth trying their Panuozzo. Pizza was lacking in flavour for the price.

Tried for the first time after seeing videos about their sandwiches (Panuozzo). Ordered in store and waited around 50min to 1hr. I ordered the il crudo and mortadella. Portions were generous but it was like $20 before tax. The taste was also pretty good and everything was freshly made to order. Personally, idk if I would wait an hour for a sandwich but I do see why people like this spot.

Amazing food. Best sandwiches in the city. Great pizza as well. Chef from Napoli. Taste of Napoli in Toronto. Good value. Good vibes

Incredible, authentic Italian pizza and panuozzo crafted with passion! Their generous portions, made with the freshest quality ingredients, are prepared to order right before your eyes. A true taste of Italy in every bite!

Unless you fly to Italy, it’s impossible to beat the authenticity of their Neapolitan pizza! Prices are not inexpensive, but with inflation I really can’t complain.
Please note that they will NOT sell takeaway pizza by the slice: whole pizzas only.

The pizza and calzone are outstanding - so authentic! It’s like being in Italy .. kinda hidden in the suburbs but so worth the drive ( beats any pizza joint in the city!)

Let’s start by saying the sandwiches are unbelievably fresh. That’s saying the bread is freshly baked in front of you and the meat is freshly sliced as it goes into your sandwich. The pizza is unbelievably delicious. The dough so tender it melts in your mouth. I have now been four timesand each time it’s a treat. These gentlemen are truly dedicated to the art of food. Everything is authentic. The place is clean spacious and the ambiance makes you feel like you’re in a small shop in Italy. I highly recommend this takeout or eat in. Call had to make reservations as not a lot of t and each time it’s a treat. These gentlemen are truly dedicated to the art of food. Everything is authentic.

Call ahead to make reservations as there are not a lot of tables. I would describe this as a hidden gem
