Hot Oven Pizza And Pasta

Suddenly they decided that they are not coming to my place when they was in this area many times when I ordered before
There is no specifying what are the delivery area limits
They charge for delivery and I think this is rude.

Ordered a Hot Oven Select pizza and some honey garlic wings for delivery. I wasn’t expecting much from this place, as I’ve had some bad experiences with a couple of other family owned pizza places in the area. Was pleasantly surprised that this was actually really good.
The food came in around 45 minutes, which was pretty standard with a lot of pizza delivery. A bit on the expensive side though. About $ 5 more for a medium compared to the big chain pizza places… but worth it.
The honey garlic sauce on the wings was great. Some of the best wings I’ve had, actually.
The pizza was very good though. It was a deep dish pizza. Not as deep as I thought it’d be, but thicker than your average pizza. The crust was amazing. It was light and crisp, and easy to bite through. The toppings were spot on. Great flavour.
Loved it — can’t wait to try more of their selection, and maybe their pasta too.

I live in the neighborhood so I have tried many places in this area! This one is just OK. I wouldnt reccommend it. It is a good snack to grab if you are not in the mood to cook and want something quick. Honestly you are better off going to Da Mario across the street for some real Italian food. I have only tried the lasagna here but it is nothing to rave about. It tastes like a packaged lasagna that you would purchase from the grocery store… except if is much more expensive. It is a decent portion but it is waaaaay overpriced. If i remember correctly it costs roughly around $ 15.00.

The myth and legend surrounding this place is almost incredible, not unlike a restaurant like Antons has a restaurant been hyped up so much, and like so many of these hyped up restaurants, they fail to deliver, none moreso then Hot Oven.
My friend lives in the area, and once in a while we’d drop by and pick up usually the same old same old which to us is:
1 Large Hot Oven Select
1 Carnivore
1 Baked Ravioli
Based on these three items, the food does not dissapoint. It’s weighty, tasty, and generally very well done.
Just don’t tell any of the staff this.
I live 9 KM away from their store, and have called countless times asking them if they can deliver to me. They say they can’t and that it’s too far. So Apparently a 9 KM delivery which would take 20 minutes is too far. Bull!
So the last time, I made a point to take a cab across town to their shop and I asked them why they don’t deliver for what would be a 20 minute drive and the person up front slammed my pizza box on the counter, and walked away telling me they wouldn’t serve me the pizza.
I’m frankly shocked, and while I mentioned I enjoy their pizza, it’s not worth the stress and hassle. No one from Panago, Bella, or even Flying Wedge slams a pizza on a counter, refuses me service, and storms off.
You’re reading this wondering if this place is worth it.
It’s not.

Ordered a pizza here one night on a walk-​in with a friend. This was the first time I tried Hot Oven. Ordered a medium with a few toppings and the price came to around $ 20, which I found to be slightly on the expensive side.
Pizza came about 15 minutes later. Since we were eating in we were given a paper plate and some napkins. The pizza was alright. Not greasy at all and that was with extra cheese.
As we were finishing the meal, the delivery man, who had just spent 2 – 3 minutes parking his car, entered the store and began swearing at us for staring at him and laughing as he tried to park correctly. Swearing at paying customers is no way to do business so for that reason I would not return to this establishment.

Good pizza, good lasagna, good service. Not my favourite sauce (I like a tangy pizza sauce and this is more of a hearty tomato pasta sauce) but always delicious food. We order a pizza, lasagna and salad and everything arrives in a timely fashion on a Saturday night. Very good meal!

We had the Greek — feta, tomato, peppers, black olives & onion — it was thick with toppings. This is not a pretentious pizza — think prairie Greek restaurant pizza and you’ll catch my drift.
Good ingredients, but nothing sundried or thrown on top as a whole leaf.
Good crust, not soggy, brushed w garlic oil after going in the oven.
It was about 1″ deep, and crust built up like a rim. Definitely deep dish.
We paid about $ 20 w tip for a medium. Standard comparable price. Was served by the owner I think, nice people worth supporting.

First the pros… great pizza!!! In my opinion probably the best on the heights.
The cons… they always say 45 mins for delivery, yet every time I order it took an hour n 10 mins minimum! Last time I ordered delivery the driver left my gate open knowing I have a dog!
Conclusion if u like quality pizza dont mind waiting an hour and a half for it, and you dont mind going outside to double check on your gate, this is your place!!!

I read some of the reviews for this restaurant and I simply can’t understand them.
First of all, this place is family owned. The staff have not changed since it opened. The guy who answers the phone is the guy that brings your order and is possibly the owner. I didn’t get a chance to speak to him myself, but I over heard him speaking and he was extremely courteous.
The food is simply amazing. I don’t eat bread, so we ordered the following:
Sweet Chilli Chicken Wings (20) — These were shiny, perfectly seasoned without being too-​sauced
Meatballs in Sauce — Oh my god. Best meatballs I’ve ever had from a restaurant. The sauce is just a little spicy, thick, and packed with extra meat. So satisfying.
Large Greek Salad — I am a feta cheese fanatic, so I know when it’s done right. This was done right. Lots of olives, crisp cucumber, firm tomato, and small pieces of onion.
Let’s just say we have leftovers, but not a lot of them. The meatballs didn’t stand a chance.
Mr. J has ordered from this place for years and he advised me that three years ago when he ordered meatballs they were very much the same and equally worthy of praise.
This was my first Burnaby delivery experience and they more than earned their 5 stars. We only order anything for delivery maybe once a year, but I know we will be back. Heck, I might even compromise on the bread and try their pizza…

1) IF A CUSTOMER HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE SERVICE OR THE FOOD, DONT BE SARCASTIC AND ASK «WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO ABOUT IT?» THEN HANG UP! BUSINESS SUICIDE, MY FRIEND!
2) This place hasn’t had a review in over a year, good or bad! This pizza place has gone right down hill, cold pizza straight from the «hot oven»!!
3) When Hot Oven first opened it was one of the best in North Burnaby, now it’s one of the worst around, due to cheap, rude and generally stupid staff!
4) Forget about this pizza joint and call Viva Sues and tell Tony you’re jumping ship from shit pizza! You’ll be very impressed with what is in store for your taste buds!

Not your average-​joe pizza. Deep dish, with overloading flavors :)
not for your thin crust pizza lovers. its like a lasagna packed pizza! two layers! double the flavor, double the joy!
a little bit on the pricier side. which is the only thing that partially parts you from over dosing in calories :)

ordered from here on a whim — figured I should ordered everywhere else in n burnaby.
pizza was good — great toppings, zesty sauce — but different. this ain’t no p’hut nor panago — it’s a hand crafted cared for pizza.

Daring pizza lovers, I present to you: Hot Oven Pizza (and Pasta).
When I say ‘daring’, I’m not talking about loading your pizza with spicy banana peppers or ordering a pan-​sized lettuce-​laden monstrosity that’s supposed to resemble a taco (I’m looking at you, Panago). No. I’m talking about utilizing common food items (and dare I say, uncommon?) and fusing them with toppings we have never visualized on a pizza.
Here are some examples:
«Spam» — Spam, potato, corn, onion and gravy.
«Chili Dog» — Meat sauce, hot dog, banana peppers and cheddar.
«Tuna Melt» — Tuna, onion, tomato and cheddar.
My favourite? Hands-​down «The Orient». Where else can you find BBQ duck, chicken, green onion and tomatoes in a deep-​dish pizza?
Aside from the aforementioned pizza creations, there are also the classics and create-​your-​own. The pizza itself and dough is not overly greasy, but it is packed with toppings so you might mistake juice and sauce for grease. At the end of the day, these pizzas are delicious and they will fill you up — that’s what we’re looking for, right?

The below reviews should be ignored because they’re an opinion thing, not a quality thing.
Great service, I remember when we used to live at SFU and they’d still deliver regardless of how far we were!
The pizza has a thicker, chewy crust, loaded with toppings and a sweet glaze on the edges of the crust. If you like this type of pizza, which we do, please give it a try!
The bbq duck pizza is AMAZING!

Fresh and Yum — I think this joint is Asian run, perhaps Korean, and boy do they ever know how to make a decent pizza! The toppings are generous and fresh, like other reviewers have noted and the crust is fairly ample (although not as good as Bella’s Pizza — I am more partial to a traditional, crusty on the outside-​soft on the inside yeast-​leavened crust — just my preference). Hot Oven’s is softer and a bit more lipidy (is that a word?) — like they’ve used oil or shortening in their crust.
Anyways, for any medium ($ 16 for 4 toppings) or large ($ 19 for 4 toppings) pizza you can order ½ + ½: Can you say SCORE!!! That means you can try 2 flavours on one pizza — perfection!
Recommended!

Two slices and i was stuff. Hearty toppings, almost deep dish style, thick crust. It was good but i am the pickiest pizza person. The leftover piece was almost better the next day. So filling though so if you are insatiable, go here!

I was lucky enough to win a Family Pack from Hot Oven Pizza a few weeks ago, just in time for the Canucks vs. Blackhawks game. In the spirit of hockey and pure irony, we ordered a Canucks «Chicago style» pizza. The Family Pack came with a lasagna, Caesar salad and 2 pieces of garlic bread.
While the toppings itself was delicious, Hot Oven Pizza reconfirmed why I’m not a huge fan of Chicago-​style pizzas. Whether it be the fault of the style of pizza, or the one who made it, I found that the deep-​dish pizza left the thick-​crust below the toppings soggy from the pasta sauce and oils from the meat.
There’s nothing much to be said about the salad or garlic bread, except the bread was slightly burnt. No big deal.
The lasagna — fortunate for me, unfortunate for them — was delicious. It was cheese-​loaded (a huge plus in my eyes), meaty and flavourful. It also had a wonderful tang in the tomato sauce which I can’t quite put my finger on.
I will most likely order from them again, considering my choices split between them and Pizza Hut or Panagos, but it might just be for the lasagna.

We just ordered three pizzas from here: Alexandra the Greek, Pesto Pollo, and the Canuck. I found the pizzas to be okay. It wasn’t my favorite. But I did like that they were loaded with toppings. But maybe it was too juicy for my liking. Also, the crust had a sweet glaze on it which I wasn’t sure if I liked.
What I did like was that the Canuck pizza had real bacon on it… mmm!
