Romi's Pizza & Restaurant

What is Romi's Pizza & Restaurant? Operating since 1966 before moving to its current Bloor Street West stretch in 2001, Romi’s Pizza & Restaurant is a family-run staple of The Kingsway. The unpretentious shopfront opens into a cozy, retro-leaning dining room furnished with simple tables, warm lighting, and a steady counter serving locals popping in for takeout. It functions as an everyday neighbourhood anchor where long-time regulars and area families gather for classic Southern Italian comfort.

Romi's Pizza & Restaurant Menu & What to Order The kitchen specializes in traditional hand-stretched pizzas baked with a rich, house-made tomato sauce and generous heaps of bubbling mozzarella. Go for the Romi’s Special Super Deluxe—loaded with pepperoni, mushrooms, bacon, onions, green peppers, and olives—or the artichoke-strewn Mafiosa. Hearty non-pizza staples also deliver old-school satisfaction, especially the saucy Veal Parmigiano, the popular Veal Sandwich, and a slice of homemade tiramisu paired with an espresso.

Know Before You Go Reservations can be made by calling ahead, though walk-ins are easily accommodated on weekdays; expect the room and takeout queue to get noticeably busier on weekend evenings. Drivers will find street metered parking along Bloor, while transit riders are just a four-minute stroll west of Royal York subway station. The restaurant opens for dinner on Mondays, serves straight through lunch and dinner Tuesday through Saturday, and stays closed on Sundays.
