Great location; always top notch service. We were there just for dessert and drinks- it was perfect!
Our family went to the 23 Ave location on Friday '17Feb10 ~ Nice place! Great service/Friendly/Helpful! Incredible mozza balls (appie) and pizzas! Will be visiting again. Thank you to the staff!
I've been driving by this place a few times now and we finally went 2 wks ago. The wood - fire pizzas, and Polpette AL Forno was awesome. Like the atmosphere is great. I'm not sure if there something wrong with our server that day, but one of the cup she gave us had lipstick stain and she disappeared in mid service. She then left with her jacket/etc when we were 3/4 done our meal. She seems like a nice girl. The boy that took over afterwards was kinda awkward and didn't say anything about he's taking over etc... I dunno. Being in the food & beverage industry, I don't think they handled whatever that's going on very well that day. More training is needed for staff... reason why I am not giving this place a 4.5. Overall, everything else was great, even the service was good. Would Def recommend this place.
Stop one tonight. Appy's of tomato bisque and salads. One Gorgonzola and walnut one Caesar with prosciutto bacon. Soup is full of flavor and dressed perfectly. Gorgonzola salad has large pieces of cheese, half walnuts, and crisp greens. Service was great tonight. Chatty, personable, and fast with our appy's and drinks. Thanks for a great start to our night.
One of the best "healthy" pizza places in the city. A bit pricy for what u get but good overall theme and concept. And tons of locations too

Great pizzas with thin and crispy crusts. The variety of toppings will please all kinds of tastes. You can try all of them and enjoy each one. Service is great with friendly staff.
Will definitely come back for more!
Perfection. Best location in town, always delivers an excellent experience and wonderful pizza. Staff is very friendly and looks after you without being in your face. Looking forward to next time.
Top notch Pizza. Probably one of the best Famoso pizza's I've had in Edmonton, I found this location to be better than the other ones I've been to. The food just seemed to taste better, and service (which wasn't expected since it's a order/sit down place) was great! The pizzetta and soup combo I had was fresh and didn't take long to make. The environment in the restaurant seemed more cozy than crammed, unlike the one on Whyte Ave which I find to be crammed to fit the most amount of people into it. Loved the Famoso at this location, and would be willing to go slightly out of the way just for it.
I don't even eat other pizza anymore because I would end up comparing it to FAMOSO. The staff is awesome, the food arrives quickly even when the place is full and it is always great. Love the FAMOSO and Napoli salads and the soup is so good I have tried to make it aT home with no success. If they ever take the cavoletti away again I will start a mutiny. So lucky this is in my neighborhood
The dough sucks, but everything else is over-the-top good, so why not let the bygones be bygones.... The service.
At this location.
Is simply breath-taking.
How can the service at an order & seat-down place be better than any restaurant that I've been to in a very long time. I'm talking from fast food to fine dining to all walks of life. Crazy!
I liked the food here. I compare to what I ate in Rome and what I eat in Edmonton & Calgary. Top notch I'd say. It didn't taste like fast food but more restaurant quality than anything in terms of freshness, presentation, and temperature. The dough really needs improvement but maybe it's just something healthy and you have to suck it up. This ain't no pizza hut lard dough or even papa john's dough that is soft. This is proprietary famoso dough that is neither greasy, tasty, nor soft.
I used to be a famoso-hater but this visit changed my view 180 degrees.
Great Pizza. Well I have been to this location twice and just realized they opened one up on the west, just outside of west Edmonton mall which is closer to me, I actually find the west ed lecation much nicer with the brick building and just felt more cozy inside,
as for their pizza these guys are so consistent with quality, every time its perfect and taste great, truly one of the best pizza I ever had and im a picky guy I never say greatest pizza if I didn't like it, I have always liked deep dish pizzas but always felt awful after eating it, this one here I eat the whole thing and I feel nice and light after and great tasting at the same time, even my wife now makes me go there and reminds of it when we crave pizza...service is also great except the set up is kinda weird at first as in going inside, seating yourself first, then you get up and place an order yourself then sit down and wait for your pizza, then not sure if you have to wait for the bill but I have always got up and paid at the counter ( I think that's how you do it) but I really don't mind, you will get used to this kinda set up ( I actually like it better than full service) and the waitresses always coming around asking you if you need anything, great great service and food, if you have not been there then you should try it.
Always good. I have been here many times, it's always very good.
