Sophies Pizza

Awesome pizza sold here! Thick, crunchy crust LOADED with top quality toppings! Lots of yummy house pizzas & salads to try!

My favorite pizza in Calgary, well made and consistently good. Best parts for me are the cheese and sauce. A little more expensive than the big chains, but it is great value for a gourmet pizza. Highly recommended.

I tried a variety of their menu items between pizzas and desserts and everything tastes really good! Their sauce is the best I’ve tasted on a pizza, also they’re pretty generous with toppings! All in all I’d totally recommend that place for anyone who’s up for some nice a bit greasy pizza.

Love this place everyone I introduce this place loves it too! Not a huge fan of the chicken wings they can improve on them, but the pizza is full of sauce cheese and whatever toppings you may like

If you’re from or have been to Saskatchewan, you may be familiar with Western and/​or Houston Pizza — proper thick crust, tons of meat and cheese. Sophie’s isn’t quite the same as home, but it is a very close 2^nd and one of the best pizza places in Calgary!

First time at Sophie’s and I thought it was a top ten pizza… all time. I’m not a health nut… if I’m eating pizza… it’s time to sin… I’m not looking for light and fresh.
If I lived in Calgary this would be a default place.
Regarding comments about pricey… I paid about $ 20 for a large Pizza that fed two adults and a teenager after an eleven kilometer hike in the Rocky Mountains (Johnston’s Canyon ink pots). We all were full… for $ 20! Price complaints make no sense to me… that’s great value.

We have ordered from Sophies on a few occasions, typically because it is close and because the men in our family like the heavy-​meaty-​greasiness of their typical pizza. The women, though, protest and we order from Sophies less and less.
They used to accomodate my request to put the toppings (of my vegetarian pizza) on top of the cheese (instead of on the bottom, which for some bizarre reason so may pizza joints like to do). Last time, the man taking the order wouldn’t do it…“Too much time”. I am not sure what that means, but as far as I can tell there should be no great difference and the rudeness was uncalled for. If it was my business I would want to keep a customer. Toppings on the bottom (or bottomings) are ok with meat, but most vegetable toppings like spinach, tomatoes, mushrooms, onions, etc. leach out liquid when they cook, leaving a soggy mess of the crust, while they cook beautifully on top. Needless to say, if you are a veggie lover, the crust gets slimy and the cheese just slips off the top. Just gross.
So, if you are a fan of the deep dish, more-​about-​the-​crust, rock-​in-​you-​gut style pizza, go ahead. If you prefer a thinner, crispy crust with exceptional toppings proudly displayed on top… bypass this place.

Sophie’s pizza is more of a deep dish style. I ordered pepperoni and mushroom. Overall the pizza was fine but nothing special. Nothing really stood out for me except the sauce. It was slightly sweet and had a distinctive spice like nutmeg, or something I’d equate to baked sweets. Definitely not how I like my sauce to taste. The amount of toppings were adequate for the style. And the crust was fine too.
I also thought it was expensive, $ 15.50 for a 10″ two topping pizza.
I will not go back.

This is a very good looking pizza place. I went in early afternoon, and it was pretty slow. Very clean, well organized, and friendly. It actually looked like they were fairly busy on delivery, just no walk in customers.
Decided to give the basic classic pepperoni a try, since a simple pie is often the best barometer of how good a pizza place can be, paid, and waited. They said 10 minutes, I think it was a little quicker.
The pizza itself was pretty heavy — a medium that weighs more than a large at most Pizza places, so that’s a good sign, right?
Got home, and dug in — not going to lie, I’m pretty full, and my mouth was pretty impressed with the taste, except for one thing — I ordered a pepperoni pizza, and despite having a thick layer of pepperoni, and LOTS of awesome cheese, I can’t remember tasting the pepperoni once
The sauce, while uncommonly good, masked the taste of the meat, which is what I was looking forward to the most.
For a good, filling, reasonably priced for what you get pizza, this place is amazing — but if you really want to savor the flavour of the toppings, you can find better.

By the time I got home from work, the Mister had made dinner, but I was jonesin’ for pizza & it didn’t take much convincing! We wanted to try Sophie’s since we live in the area & like to support local business.
First off, the guy on the phone was very rude. I ordered a large pizza and asked how many pieces of Baklava you get for the price listed on the website menu. He said that they no longer had that deal. I asked if they had Baklava — yes. How many do you get for the set price? «We no longer have that deal». This went on for awhile. When we had the order down, he asked for my name and I answered. Silence. «HELLO? WHAT IS YOUR NAME?» Woah. I asked my husband what the service was like when he picked the pizza up and he said that the guy at the counter just ignored him and was talking to the two customers behind him the whole time. Needless to say, there is room for friendliness improvement.
The pizza itself was decent. I’m more of a healthy, thin crust kind of pizza gal & this was pretty deep dish style & greasy. I’m not going to say it tasted bad because it was good, just not my style. The sauce was really good — tangy and different. It is super heavy — I could only eat 1.5 pieces. The end of the crust is the best part — baked cheese stuck to chewy yuminess! My husband really liked it — I think it’s a pizza, grease, & beer kinda guy’s dream.
All in all, for me it is only a 2 star experience, for a deep dish lover, I suspect that it would be more like a 4!

Nice deep dish style pizza. They make a pizza that is similar to Speros (sp) pizza.
They are a bit pricy bit overall I would still go back.

Sophie’s is a neighbourhood pizza shop that delivers pizza with a Greek flare.
This is the first pizza I ordered when I first moved here, and it arrived hot and fast.
Now, I’m definitely a thin crust guy myself, and pretty picky when it comes to ‘za, so I can’t really rave about Sophie’s, but at the time it hit the spot. The crust is thick but still tasty, and they don’t skimp on fresh toppings. This is a heavy pizza — I think the box weighed about three pounds. The tomato sauce has a distinctly Greek taste — almost like cinnamon in there? — but at least they put enough sauce on the pizza.
The prices aren’t rock bottom, but I can assure you that they use decent toppings, so you are getting what you pay for.

Very Very good pizza little pricey, but as far as quality and taste goes Thumbs up. Store is very clean when you go in there. Get the «Damn Good Pizza» It’s my fave.
