The pizza is incredible, the owner is an absolute gentleman and TRUE Italian in every sense of the word. The pizza margarita is sublime, simple, delicious and full of authentic flavours, feels and renoncent reminders of visiting Italy and it’s true approach to pizza prepared. As a gluten sensitive individual - giving up pizza for the last few years has been devastating. The gluten free margarita here? Is truly chefs kiss! The front of house team (servers) are warm, patient and approachable. This building (previously occupied by the late wonderful Bob and the beloved team at stoneface) has clearly inherited another gem - in Del Piacere. Love this place! A must try and repeat - repeatedly ❤️

Back to this restaurant after a 15+ year gap (while we were living elsewhere) and everything is still great. Table wait staff were very well trained and the maitre d's were attentive, personable and were easy to converse with. Both dishes that we chose and the appetizer were large, generous portions that we took home. They have a whole page in the menu dedicated to gluten free options (not just footnotes).

We sat outside and it was not the most beautiful BUT there were actual linens on the table and that was very nice. The food was average I would say. The owner is a very good man and has been a restauranteur for decades in Ottawa. We enjoyed visiting with him and for his hospitality. The bruschetta has too many red onions in it, do not recommend. They do not bring bread unless you ask. The veal piccata was delicious, but the veggies and potatoes were not very hot or fresh. The pizza was good, but do not order gluten free pizza it is a terribly hard crust (which the owner deducted from our bill). The veal marsala was not particularly amazing. Overall if it weren't for the kindness of the owner I am not sure I would choose this again. There is a private room option for a group of maybe 20 people which is good to know.

The meal was delicious with more than a few gluten free choices. The noise level seemed to prevent a quiet conversation at peak time.

Pizza was tasty and excellent staff. Pizza was doughy (as usual for gluten free) but really good.

What an amazing place to get takeout pizza from! They say a 1 m piece feeds four, I think it feeds six to eight! The hot honey is amazing, and the Cesar salad was the best I’ve had in Ottawa (they use anchovies in the sauce and there’s no bacon bits, and you can get gluten free, so it’s halal, pescatarian and can be gluten free, amazing!).
