Reviews for PizzaForno in Edmonton, AB
Straight up the worst pizza I?ve ever had
The idea is super cool don?t get me wrong, but the pizza was awful. The crust was like cardboard and the sauce and toppings were... nothing to write home about. I really wanted to like it, but it was so disappointing. Maybe just do it once to say you did? Read more
The first thing I will say is that we had some trouble finding this automated pizzaria. We wandered around the first (ground)... level of Heart of the Robbins building for thirty minutes eliciting several side-glances from young students. This automatedpizzaria is NOT in the cafeteria. Go upstairs one level and you will see the machine. (Its about the size of a single widemobile home). Additionally, the pizzeria is operational 24/7 so don't be dismayed by opening and closing hours of variousmacewan food vendors. Just some back story on PizzaForno; the machine doesn't actually create the pizza, they are made off-siteand stocked in the morning, never frozen. The machine (from an unnamed French manufacturer) puts your selection into a high techconvection oven and blasts hot air on it for 3 minutes before boxing and projecting it like your old copy of IndependenceDay. Once you find PizzaForno get ready for the most thrilling and satisifying food ordering experience ever. A large touchscreen prompts you to choose a type of pizza, typically there are approximately 6 options. My dining companion chose pepperoni,which was half price due to national pepperoni pizza day! The "hamburger" pizza seems like a hit with the locals, since it wassold out. With the half price discount their pizza was only $6.00. I paid a little more for my vegetarian pizza, however it wasunsurprisingly worse than the pepperoni. It looked like someone shot the toppings on it with a vegetable shotgun, blasted intoin a cluster near the centre of the pizza. The moisture of the vegetables was great enough that it prevented the high qualitymozzarella from reaching it's chewy browned potential. Even though their recipes need honing, I didn't dock a star since thequality was obviously still high and the pepperoni pizza was hard to slight; chewy flavorful crust and perfectly cookedthroughout. My dining companion and I enjoyed our delicious pizza's in the comfortable seating area next to the pizz Read more
Definitely solid cheap fast slice. Forget the naysayers this is solid pizza
