Wonderful place and staffs. Really good food. A great opportunity at Jasper Avenue.
would like to thank Pablo. My auntys last wishes are to have their pizza and he covered it !!! God bless him and all of the staff who work there
Got the Prawn Pesto Pizza. It was great. Flavours and everything, too large, so ate if for lunch the next day. Great, great pizza. WAY BETTER than Boston Pizza. Glad I found this place. Service was great too,
Skipped the dishes tonight to order up some Famoso. Ordered two dishes, the Caprese Salad and the Primavera Pasta. They both were delicious.
I’ve heard much about this place, so I stopped in for dinner. Was greeted with friendly smiles by all the staff.
The kitchen is open, so you could watch your pizza being made and talk with the skilled chefs. They serve pizzas in the Neapolitan style; thin crusts baked in a fire oven. Not those type of pizzas that make you feel like you just ate a loaf of bread here!
I ordered one of their special creations called “Korean BBQ Beef”. Totally enjoyed it. A bit of sweet, a bit of heat!
I’d recommend that you give this place a try also!
Lunch at Famosa. Fast and friendly service from the staff today. Ordered a Favorite dish for my lunch the appetizer tray. Salad is arugula and roasted peppers, mozzarella is a soft bocaccio served with a garlic pesto, sopasetta and prosciutto ( 3 small half slices of each) and ajar of rosemary olives. All served with warm flat bread.
Was in the area visiting my uncles restaurant with a few friends during the week and we decided to go for lunch afterwards. I have not been to a Famoso in a very long time but a friend wanted pizza so we ended up here as it was near by. I always enjoyed famoso pizza as it was really good before Blaze Pizza and LOVEPIZZA came along. I think they are a bit over priced compared to the 2 pizza place I just mentioned. None the less, it was some good pizza that my friend and I ate. Service was good, atmosphere good, and staff was friendly.
Wide variety of delicious pizzas, they also have daily specials that are always great. The salads and tomato bisque are very nice as well. If you're looking for pizza, famoso is for you (whether you like a more classic cheese pizza, or bold and interesting new flavour combinations). However, I wouldn't recommend the lattes, as the foam isn't consistent with how latte foam should normally be, and I wouldn't recommend the sandwiches. Everything else is beyond great
I had never eaten at any of the Famoso Neapolitan locations in this city before, and I was curious, specifically after a friend told me that they made the margherita pizza, which is an original Italian version of the well-known staple. I decided to order from them through SkipTheDishes.ca, and along with the margherita pizza I ordered the prosciutto-wrapped mozzarella balls and their tiramisu. The pizza turned out to be good if not great, though to be a bit fair, I deliberately ordered the most basic version because I had never tried this type of pizza before. I'm willing to try it again, but with more toppings like the mushrooms and a meat of some kind (likely sausage). The mozzarella balls, however, were just fricking awesome, soft balls of the cheese wrapped in salty prosciutto and cooked in a rich tomato-based sauce packed full of flavor. I could seriously have just drunk that sauce, it was so good. The tiramisu was also very good as a way to end the meal, though I would not rate it above that which can be had at Cafe Amore which is my go-to Italian cuisine restaurant. All in all, it was pretty good food that didn't make me regret the amount of money I spent, especially those mozza balls. I would definitely eat from this restaurant again.
We got primavera and funghi pizzas and marinated olives. They were all so tasty and delicious. The service was kinda slow. But the staff were nice and very helpful about the menu. We loved our food.
Not only is the pizza delicious, but you must try their desserts! I highly recommend the Nutella pizza & Nutella Mocha. I would honestly go their just for dessert. We have been going to famoso for a few years, and will continue!
This is one of my favorite pizza places in Edmonton. Being close to home, I frequent Famoso quite often and always enjoy their meatballs. I most recently tried their Spicy Thai pizza and found it very enjoyable. Take out is a good option as well since they are extremely efficient and they do not keep you waiting too long. The service is great as well and staff is always attentive and warm.
