Il Centro - Calgary

I like it. It's got a little family diner feel to it. Probably because it is. It doesn't look like much from the storefront but the atmosphere is great! The pizza is delicious! Great dough. Perfect ratio of dough to sauce. Super cheesy! Also, they're a good size. Sides and appys are awesome. I like the bruschetta and calamari.

The gnocchi was my favourite. The rose sauce was creamy and sweet. The gnocchi was fluffy and soft. Everything just melted on your tongue. I thought Il Centro’s version was even better than Mercato.

Delicious. The BF and I found ourselves here after a movie at chinook. This place does not look like it's a cute and cozy restaurant from the outside. When you get inside though it's adorable. Red and white checkered table clothes and a pretty decent ambiance save for the television. This is definitely a family business and you can tell they do what they do well but they also want to be comfortable. <br/ <br/ We ordered a large pizza which we were allowed to half down the middle with two different flavours. We also ordered the calamari. Despite being expensive the calamari was well worth it. Delicious and also the portion size is massive. Pizza was also amazing. <br/ <br/ The person that sat us who I assume was the owner checked on us several times and was very friendly and prompt. It was such a warm night when we were there that they had the doors open because it was a bit stuffy inside. Sadly this meant that the restaurant started to fill with mosquitos so though we wished we could have stayed longer we couldn't. It felt a bit like we were camping.<br/ <br/ The restaurant had two large groups and it can easily accommodate that but is also perfect for two.<br/ <br/ I would definitely eat here again.

Really good pizza in this hidden gem!! <br/ Pizza is very good and authentic thin crust.<br/ Make sure you order the jalapeños that are soaked in oil and garlic. Also the calamari is very good.<br/

Il Centro makes hands down the best pizza in Calgary! Really I've never had a bad dish here but the pizza is the best you can get in this city.
