Reviews Summary

Joany's Pizza & Donair on George is frequently praised for its delicious pizza, particularly the donair pizza, and consistent quality with great crusts and generous toppings. While many rave about the flavors, some reviews mention issues with topping distribution on larger pizzas and a few have noted it's not a true deep-dish pizza. The location inside a convenience store is noted by some, but overall, the food quality wins out for many repeat customers.

"The pizza was amazing. I got the Canadian classic and it had tasty thick cheese and a perfect amount of tangy sauce. This is basically my ideal pizza. Homemade crust too."

Mark E

"OK if you are looking for a deep dish pizza this is not it. from the uncut pizza picture it looks like its going to be a 10 but once you cut into it , it's all just bread almost no cheese or toppings. take a look at my pics then google Deep Dish pizza. its not even close. I cant say anything about the regular pizza as I haven't tried it. now I am not saying it tastes bad it tastes pretty good but it is just not a deep dish pizza. if I had to put it in a category I would say its a pan pizza. maybe its a cost thing. I have paid $30-$50 for real deep dish pizza before. anyways just know what your getting when you go here."

Kevin Penney

"Pizza was okay, not outstanding, but not bad. It's a hard thing to mess up. The big problem was that we got a large, but it only came with enough toppings for a medium, at best. What toppings there were, were all huddled in the middle, and there was a large empty space around them with no toppings at all. For twenty seven hard earned dollars, that's not acceptable. Nobody orders large pizza for the surface area of the bread, do they? You want the whole thing covered in toppings. Dripping with toppings.
The bread is just an edible plate. So, sad to say, I won't be back. The service was pretty jolly, and yes, the bread was okay, but overall it was not remotely worth the money."
