"Soft and round, the crust sings a tale, A perfect canvas where no flavour fails."
"Great place great prices good service local family owned"
"Very polite and friendly staff and pizza was good quality for the price."
5 I’ve been going here for years. Such a hidden gem. No matter how many times I order, I’ve never had an issue with their pizza. Always delicious and fresh. In Ramadan, you can also call early to order ahead. I believe it’s under new management and it’s sad to see the old owners go, but the quality is still the same! And the employees are always friendly.
5 AB king is the best place to get pizza in the city. Literally a cost leader. A delicious XL is just $19. Highly recommend this place.
5 Great value for money, especially with their two slice deal (small personal pizza and drink) for $8. Pizza tasted good. Not much space to sit and eat inside, better suited to takeout. Solid choice for budget friendly pizza.
5 Not too glamorous of a place but it gets the job done and the tummy full. I like how they offer unlimited toppings truly unlimited with no strings attached or stupid little policies that other places have. Toppings such as the meat have a good flavour to them and vegetables seem to be fresh. Pepperoni and salami is cut paper thin which is a down side. Otherwise good stuff
5 As of this review the new owners are still doing an excellent job. This pizza is still a great value and the best pizza in the city.
5 “Best pizza in town — hands down!” I’ve tried a lot of pizza places, but AB KING absolutely blew me away. The crust was perfectly crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, the sauce had a rich homemade flavor, and they don’t skimp on the cheese or toppings. The staff are super friendly and make order ready right on time. The shop itself is clean and cozy — perfect for a quick bite or a casual dinner with friends or delivery (dont forget to tip ), If you’re a real pizza lover, you owe it to yourself to try this place. I’ll definitely be coming back (probably too often)!
5 We had always gotten pizza from here when we lived a few blocks away…over 10years ago. Living in the SE, a 25min drive, we still get pizza from here. Consistent every time. Non-greasy and friendly service. Definitely considering to order lunch for the staff.
5 Amazing service thanks to Nabila! I had a great experience at AB King Pizza, mainly because of Nabila. She was super friendly, patient, and made sure my order was perfect. You can tell she genuinely cares about customers and does her job with a positive attitude. Service like hers really makes a place stand out. Big shoutout to Nabila — she’s a real asset to the team!
People often enjoy their XL pizzas and the two-slice deal for a quick, tasty meal. Unlimited toppings are a highlight, especially the flavorful meats and fresh vegetables.
It’s great for takeaway or a quick bite, as seating is limited and better suited for fast, casual visits rather than long, relaxed meals.
A B King Pizza tends to be more relaxed during lunch hours or late at night, making these good times to avoid crowds.
The place works well for solo diners and small groups, but larger groups might find seating limited; it’s casual and informal overall.
Yes, the restaurant offers wheelchair-accessible entrances and parking, plus accepts credit, debit, and NFC mobile payments for convenience.
