The Grand started like every
great recipe: with passion.
A passion for Neapolitan pizza and dishes made with only the best ingredients. From Italy and our own backyard. A passion for the city we live in and the places we eat. And a passion we’re happy to share with our guests. While we are best known for bringing authentic Neapolitan pizza to Ottawa, that’s only the beginning of our story.

best pizza in town
Founded in 2009, honoring the traditions of Napoli, the birthplace of pizza, our pizze are baked in a custom-made oven and cooked in extremely high heat for less than ninety seconds. The result is a malleable pizza that is soft on the inside and slightly charred on the outside.
Voted the best pizza in Ottawa and beyond. ❤️ -
Located in the historic ByWard Market
Built in 1877 as a grocery store by Thomas Coffey, Sr., this building was the Grand Central Hotel from 1889 to 1907, and a Salvation Army hostel from 1908 to 1949.
