Book NowAbout Gigi Pizzeria
King Street’s plant-based pizzeria pulls off Neapolitan dough with blistered crusts and rich San Marzano sauce that leaves omnivores none the wiser. Table turnover is fast inside the loud, plant-decked dining room—worth noting since it operates strictly on walk-ins. Regulars head straight for the wood-fired Sporcaccione or the Regina topped with plant-based cheese, followed by a slice of vegan tiramisu.
- 100% Plant-Based Italian Menu: Pizzas, bakes, and desserts are made completely without animal products, using house-crafted cheeses and rich tomato bases.
- Neapolitan Dough Craft: Wood-fired Neapolitan bases feature blistered, chewy edges without leaving diners feeling weighed down.
- Walk-In Only Seating: Seating operates strictly on a walk-in basis, keeping the bustling King Street room lively and quick-moving.

Why Choose Gigi Pizzeria
Why locals and visitors choose Gigi Pizzeria for authentic plant-based dining
Uncompromising Plant-Based Italian
A 100% plant-based menu where classic Italian pizzas and pastas deliver authentic taste without anyone feeling like they are missing out.
If we didn't specifically look it up, we would have been none the wiser to know if it was fully vegan.
Teace Moloney Extensive All-Vegan Menu Variety
Diners enjoy a wide array of high-quality traditional dishes, pizzas, and desserts crafted without animal products.
The menu has plenty of variety and it’s a big plus that everything is fully vegan.
Diego Cassotta Traditional Neapolitan Dough Craft
Pizzas feature expertly prepared bases paired with balanced San Marzano tomato sauces and delicate plant-based toppings.
The San Marzano sauce was well balanced, the base nicely cooked, will def order again.
BV Blistered Crusts and Rich Flavours
Artisanal dough fermentation and wood-fired baking yield a soft, charred rim that complements plant-based cheeses and fillings.
The dough is cooked to perfection; the base is thin, the crust is soft and slightly charred, and it has a nice flop to it.
