Nitza’s Pizza

Reliable delivery. Fast on time delivery within the st albert community. Fresh ingredients. Hot and soft fluffy crust.
I work in st albert and my workplace has been ordering from nitzas for over a decade. We order ahead of time and the food comes piping hot at the exact time we ask to receive it. They even rush our order if we were working too hard to preorder.
If we say 1200pm. It arrives by 1158am. Its amazing how on spot on the delivery is.
The pizza is good. A pan crust is not overly greasy thick and crispy. The toppings are generous and fresh, I personally like the unique flavour combinations offered here like chicken artichoke, or the donair with extra sauce,
The city loves nitzas and Im never dissappointed with the pizza. Fresh. Quick. Decently priced. No complaints. We order this weekly at my work and there are plenty of great reasons why!!!

Nitzas was a family favorite since I was a kid– since the new owners took over a few years ago it has been awful. Every single time I have ordered delivery it has been over an hour and 45 minutes to come (once was 2 hrs and ten mins on a Wednesday and the pizza clearly had been sitting under a heat lamp the entire time– completely dried out and disgusting). Owner offered to «get hs next time» and the next time I called they refused to honor it and said they have nothing there. Out of the last six orders, five times my order has come completely wrong. Another important note is that the pizza there is not even subpar anymore– always cold and old tasting. Will never eat here again…

Good for their fries, but their pizza isn’t anything to brag about. Also the pasta prices and sandwich prices are way too much.

Oh Nitzas you are an institution in St Albert. Even way before I lived here I came for pizza or after a night at the crown you were there for me. Our company in Edmonton would drive out for pizza if we needed some for overtime employees. All in all you are amazing. The prices arent bad and the food is great!

I moved from St. Albert around 8 years ago into Edmonton’s Whyte Avenue area which is littered with tiny donair and pizza shops. Not one of these compare in taste and quality to the divine and exquisite awesomeness that is a Nitzas donair. The pita is always soft and fresh, they don’t over stuff with donair meat so the flavours of the sauce and cheese are pronounced and they don’t put on lettuce unless requested which is the way a donair should be. I have never understood this lettuce idea. Speaking of the sauce, the homemade donair sauce is perfect in consistency and flavour. An excellent sweetness which isn’t to runny or to thick and will leave you craving more. The pizza as well is some of the best I’ve ever had, but of course everyone is the most knowledgable critic in the world when it comes to pizza. It’s a medium crust which is fresh light and tasty and never overdone. The toppings and cheese are the perfect amount and of the highest quality. I really recommend the do air pizza and the simple but always satisfying pepperoni and mushroom, with a side of donair sauce for dipping. The jalapeño poppers are fantastic as well as is the ceaser salad and the simple but lovely cheese toast. If you are in either St. Albert or Sherwood Park, and are craving a pizza or donair, Nitzas is the place you want.

The guy was working the till and hand pressing the pizza dough without first washing his hands.
I just read an article on the widespread ADHD in recent years, and here’s an extract that I quote:
«Avoid all paper receipts. Most have BPA or BPS (bisphenol S); they have the same effect. You don’t absorb BPA/​BPS through the skin. However, if you get it on your hands and then touch your mouth or food – bingo! — you get 1,000 times the dose that you’d get from food or drink packaged in plastic.»
My understanding of why they are popular is because they buy customers by giving relatively tiny sums of money for the publicity they get, to Bellerose School, as seen on photos on their wall.
So it seems the students of Bellerose and their friends and family patronise this place and pay a hefty price for it! Makes me wonder what the ADHD numbers are at Bellerose.

Was house-​sitting in St. Albert and our original plan for dinner had fallen through, so I looked online for a decent pizza place that delivers, and Nitza’s kept coming up, so we decided to try it. They do a 2-​for-​1 which is awesome, but like the other review said, their pizza sizes are misleading (M = 10″, L = 12″, XL = 14″ — they should really just rename them S, M, L).
We ordered a ‘special pepperoni’ pizza (special pepperoni sausage (which when I asked, turned out to be the same as their regular pepperoni), asiago, green peppers, mushrooms), and a donair pizza (donair beef, mushrooms, onions, fresh tomato slices, slathered with donair sauce) since it seems to come highly recommended from many other reviewers. Both come with mozzarella as well. I asked if they have a garlic dipping sauce but they only had tzatziki, so I ordered that as a side. The lady on the phone was really nice and actually called me back to clarify if I had wanted the tzatziki sauce on the whole pizza, half, or the side.
Delivery took the shorter end of the 30 – 45 minutes that she had told me, which was great. The crust is a regular crust (not thin, but not super thick either), not fantastic but held up the toppings well. I couldn’t identify any asiago cheese on the special pepperoni pizza, but it was was still tasty — lots of large slices of pepperoni, real sliced and cooked mushrooms, and cubed green pepper that was neither under nor overcooked. And the cheese was melted just the way I like it — a little bit brown on the edges (I dislike undercooked pizza, where the mozzarella looks white and barely melted — although I find that with better quality pizzas, the cheese can be white and still melted and gooey). The donair pizza was completely slathered in a white, sweet donair sauce, and had a fresh tomato slice on each slice of pizza. The beef was tasty and the onions tasted like they had been caramelized (which I love). Didn’t notice the mushrooms? Overall a tasty pizza but there wasn’t as much donair beef as expected. The tzatziki sauce was excellent — thick, fresh and creamy with dill in it.
Total came to around $ 37 — I think the 2-​for-​1 pizzas were $ 32 each, and the tzatziki was $ 2 and there was another $ 2 service charge. Enough food for dinner for two and leftovers for both our lunches the next day. They do accept credit cards. I’d be interested in trying out their other Greek offerings due to the tzatziki being so good!

AMAZING pizza!
Nitza’s will cost you more than the big chains like Pizza 73 but their tatste and freshness is amazing! Their price would compare to Panago’s.
The best Donair pizza in the world and it’s NEVER greasy! Their wings are delicious and they serve up some mean souvlaki and calamari if that’s your thing!
I don’t know the owner’s name but he is super friendly and always greets you with a smile! They have a slurpee machine and if you pick up your order you get a free slurpee or bottle of water — and I can assure you we take advantage of that!
And if your’e simply craving a slurpee with your pizza, they will deliver a slurpee to you!
FYI — Their pizza sizes are smaller than most… So an XL at Nitza’s is like a Large elsewhere.
Hands down the freshest and most delicious pizza available in St. Albert! I tell everyone about this place and I hope you will give it a try!
