Our Story
16 inches of pure Toronto taste.
As Toronto's first Somali-owned pizzeria, we didn't want to open just another pizza shop. The city has plenty of those. We wanted to build the pizza we couldn't find: a massive, 100% Halal 16-inch NYC-style pie that doesn't compromise on quality, sold at a fair price without hidden fees.
The 6-Month Test Kitchen
Before serving our first customer in North York, we spent 6 months testing dough hydration, sauce fermentation, and oven temperatures. We perfected our thin, foldable NYC-style crust, sourced hand-slaughtered cup-and-char beef pepperoni, and blended rich fior di latte mozzarella with Pecorino Romano.
Then, we invited 100+ of our Toronto neighbors to try it. We didn't ask for fake reviews. We asked for brutal honesty.
"97% of our taste-testers said they would order again. That's when we knew we were ready."
