    They were NOT KIDDING when they said this was the best pizza. I've had pizza everywhere. Literally. The best pizza I had had until this point was in Paris, France (sorry Italy). Eddie and his crew have crafted something absolutely genius. Between their unique and varied options, they have perfected both flavour and crust combinations. You can't miss eating here. I travelled from Oshawa and I would travel here again from Ottawa or beyond just to have the Keanu or Butter Jam Jam. Ridiculously incredible. Don't settle for a Pizza Pizza pizza again!

    The folks over at big trouble pizza are making a big wave over at their location on Geary avenue. With a stellar, but tight menu, you cannot go wrong with any of the pizzas they have. Their staple however, the butter jamjam, will always be a hit. In addition, the well kept secret here is that they are in contention for one of the best smash burgers in the city. You wouldn't anticipate it from a pizza shop, but it's one hell of a burger, we can tell you that much.

    Expensive but WORTH the price. One of the most unique pizzas I’ve ever had; it was sweet, salty, and savoury all at the same time and they definitely don’t skimp on the cheese. Totally worth stopping in for a pizza, you won’t regret it!

    LOVE HERE. Went two times in one day. Owner noticed, you are back so quickly. He is so friendly. Everyone that comes brings along someone to share the amazing food and service.

    4/5 Would return for the other flavours. Definitely chose the wrong pizza here as the pepperoni is nothing to write home about. Crust is interesting as it is much lighter and fluffier than it looks. Otherwise needed maybe 2 mins more in the oven for pepperoni to cup more. Edit: Shame they moved.

    Super chill spot with the best smash burger in town. Try it, you won't regret it. You'll probably want to order another one right away. Their pizzas are amazing and they have such interesting take on flavours. My favorite is the Keanu which appears to be a permanent menu item. There are some other rotating flavours and they are all worth a try. If you want some alcohol to go with it, they are just a short walk away from several different brewery options.

    We had the Butter Jam Jam and the mushroom pizza and they were SO GOOD!! We spoke with the owner for a bit and he ended up offering us an entire pizza for free! Definitely going to be coming here more often. Great service, great price, great pizza, and in a very cool and unique part of town! What more do you need?

    Been going here since they were still in Kensington back in 2018. Decided to go to the new location recently and I'm so happy that everything is the same! The 'Butter Jam Jam' is easily one of the best pizzas I have had in my life. Love the funky and delicious combinations y'all put out. People here are always super friendly and chill to talk to as well. 100% worth taking the time out of your day to come here!

    Incredible pizzas and smashburgers, and owned by some of the best people. Their pizzas are unique with a crispy and fluffy dough and really understand flavours so there are no bad options to choose from. Aside from amazing pizzas, they arguably have the best smashburgers in Toronto as well. It's worth the trip out to Geary.

    Heard about this place a while back and was finally able to try them out. Definitely one of the best smash burger spots in TO. Perfectly cooked burger patty with that distinct smash burger crisp and a simple, Perfectly layered amount of lettuce, tomatoes, house sauce and ketchup between fluffly potato buns. Managed to try out a slice of their MF Prashoots pizza, which was also delicious, especially with the crunchy crust. Very pleasant and friendly staff. Will definitely come back and order again and try out the other pizzas! 😋😋

    I really loved the light crispy and crunch of their one of a kind pizza dough! The toppings were well crafted and everything tasted so amazing together. The staff was incredible and patient in helping us navigate through the menu and very welcoming and inviting for having us dine on the open patio picnic tables out in front. Definitely coming back to try more!!!! I typically do not eat pizza crust- however, for this- I cannot stop thinking about the crunchy crust 😍

    Amazing new concept! Their choice of toppings is super diverse and unusual. The crust is puffy and you want to eat every piece of it! Totally worth it, I highly recommend it!

    Excellent customer service, delicious pizza with zesty ingredients and a nice outdoor space with a beautiful graffiti mural equals one of the best hangouts ever in Chinatown. This pizza joint offers a range of different specialized pizzas each packed with unique ingredients and toppings at a medium to high price range. Overall, highly recommended.

    Some of the most interesting flavour profiles in pizza ive ever tried. The dough is totally unique and addicting, the flavours pair so well its surprising. Also the owner is a lovely guy, had some great conversations to go with my pizza break. Seriously, support these local guys!!!

    Was at Blood Brothers Brewery and stumbled upon this pizza and burger joint. Quite honestly the best pizza I've ever had in my life. Worth every penny. Had the mushroom pizza and balsamic reduction with lemon (cant remember the names off hand). You can literally taste the love that went into crafting this oven toasted masterpiece. Will be back for their burgers, I can only imagine. Can't recommend this place enough, you won't be disappointed.

    Really amazing food. Tried their big trouble burger and the keanu pizza. Both were fresh, the quality of the ingredients were spot on. The pizza really stood out though... no one's doing pizza like these. The combination of ingredients is so creative and delicious! The burger was amazing too, everyone seems to be doing smash burgers but theirs is definitely not one to sleep on. The edges were crisp, the bun was soft and toppings fresh. Will definitely be back. Good job chef's.

    Awesome pizza and awesome burgers on Tuesdays in the summer. The crust is very unique and delicious! Big Trouble is an amazing little shop cranking out quality food!

  • 5/5 Char B. 2 months ago on Google • 4 reviews New
    Absolutely blown away by how delicious and unique the pizza was here. Dough was light, flakey, crispy and ingredients were gourmet and fresh. Mikey is kind and thoughtful. Definitely try this place out if you’re a foodie and love pizza!

    I ordered two pizzas - Kiki's Memories (pictured) and a Spicy Pepperoni. The former was like a levelled-up Hawaiian, and absolutely delicious down to the crust. The missing star is due to the SP - I appreciate that there's only so much you can do with a pepperoni pie, but I was taken aback by the discrepancy in quality between the two products. Based on KM, I'm sure this shop does other good stuff, so I'll be sure to try the other offerings.

    Really delicious, creative flavours and fresh ingredients - one of the best pizza places in town! The best part is the staff - always kind and welcoming full of life and flavour. Thank you 🎉

  • 5/5 Kristena S. 5 months ago on Google
    Amazing smash burgers and pizza. The fries were crispy and delicious. Limited menu but you cannot choose wrong. Restaurant is set up in what looks like an old garage and is very casual but you cannot beat the way the food tastes. Perfection.

  • 5/5 Raymond T. 5 months ago on Google
    Their smash burger is my favourite burger of all time. Their fries are so fresh and crunchy. Their pizza is so fluffy and well seasoned. I love this place a lot!

  • 5/5 Erez Y. 11 months ago on Google
    Great pizza, even better people. Hidden secret menu pizza is the Kīlauea! The only way to get it is to walk in and ask for it. Say you saw it here, and they'll make it - not available for pre order!!

    Nice big place open concept very friendly staff Pizza could have used a little more crispy the raspberry jam pizzas different.

  • 5/5 joseph b. 10 months ago on Google
    This place has some delicious and unique food. Personally, I love the smashed burger here. I haven't had such a good smash patty in a while, and they do not disappoint. The pizza is also legit and pretty unique.

  • 5/5 Nick C. 8 months ago on Google
    Always great here! The Pizza and the Burgers! The team here is super friendly and they respect every ingredient they use, they’re also very innovative with their pizzas!

  • 4/5 David B. 8 months ago on Google
    Tried the pepperoni slice. Was small and very average. Crust was thick and non-traditional but had a nice crunch and was still decent. Tomato sauce was fairly bland, as was the pepperoni. The slice was definitely not worth $10 including a can of ginger ale and a $1 tip. I was left hungry afterwards. Not sure why they have such a high rating though perhaps it's because of the creativity of their other pizzas but, still, you gotta make a good pepperoni pizza.

  • 5/5 matt h. 9 months ago on Google
    Fantastic smash burger! Meat was nice and seared. I really enjoyed my burger. Next time I come I'm going to try their pizza. My only complaint is the seating isn't comfortable. But this isn't the place where they want you to hang out so take it with a grain of salt.

  • 5/5 Erik P. 9 months ago on Google
    Love this spot. Smash burgers are easy to find these days but not many places nail them like this. Also a lot of great pizza options in this area but theirs are very unique. Butter jam pizza is not something you'll find anywhere else, the keanu is probably my favourite.

  • 4/5 Michele G. 9 months ago on Google
    Pizza was fresh! The burger was delicious! I'm not a fan of coated fries but they were also fresh. The milk carton stools were really not cool or comfortable, so we opted for the Algonquin chairs out front in the hot sun. A couple patio umbrellas and decent chairs inside would be a fantastic addition.

  • 5/5 Jen 9 months ago on Google
    This place is criminally underrated. This is the greatest pizza I’ve ever eaten in my life no joke. Especially if you love truffle, this is the place for you. All the pies are great but the funghi is my fav!! I’m eating a slice as I write this. I’ll never order pizza from anywhere else. Why wait in line at Badiali? Long live Big Trouble 🫡

  • 5/5 Samudra G. 9 months ago on Google
    We picked up a pizza and some smash burgers and all I can say is go before the queues start, cos they’re gonna start real soon. Possibly the best smash burgers and pizza around these parts 🥲
