This is probably the closest to the 'old school' Italian pizza that I have found around the Northcote area. The bases are lovely and fresh and they are always generous with toppings. The quality of the toppings sets them apart from a lot of other pizza shops around (in a good way). Its probably a fraction on the pricey side, but I guess we can blame COVID for that across all our favorite eateries...
Will definitely be heading back to this one!

This is our local and always has great pizzas plenty of toppings and really good bases. In the picture it is Gigi‘s favourite and Popeye which is on the menu. Good prices too. We’ve had a lot of pizza in Northcote over the years La Gustosa is certainly our favourite.

The pizza was unexpectedly really nice considering i paid $12 for a medium pizza. Flavour was great and toppings were all great quality. Service was good too 👌

We got a delivery and it was probably one of the worst pizzas I've ever had. We ordered a capriosa and the ham wasn't ham, just a stack of some sort of luncheon meat. I was expecting much better given the pics and reviews.

Tips for La Gustosa - don’t make online orders and avoid the pasta. I think they rushed my meal and it didn’t really turn out so well. Judging by the reviews the pizza should’ve been the way to go.

Ordered 4 pizzas all average at best. This place used to make great pizzas and has clearly taken a turn for the worse. So disappointing.
Evan Sam
The best pizza that I ever had, the perfect thickness of the base and the generous menu
Love it keep it up guys….

They're not lying, it's unironically some of the best pizza around. The shopfront really is more than meets the eye; it's a small place that makes some great pies. Whenever my local place isn't open I come here to grab a Picante and it's glorious - love the thin crispy crust with a little bit of charring around the edges. The ingredients are really tasty too, the roasted capsicum and chilli flakes to add some heat are excellent.

Probs the nicest pizza I've had from a pizza store. Don't let the location fool you, top quality pizza awaits. Fresh as everytime and the staff are really nice. Well priced for the quality of ingredients used. A well loved local businesses, and the only pizza I will order on a regular basis.

I have been getting pizza from La Gustosa for years, and I must say that it never disappoints. I have tried pretty much everything on the menu and its hard to seperate. Nothing nicer than fresh ingredients on your pizza. So lucky to have this as our local. Keep up the good work.

Best local pizzas for take away. Parking and supermarket easy. Piccante, meat lovers, gustoso and mediterranean twist favourites. Good quality and satisfying.
Dimmy Georgiadis
My favourite pizza shop in the area. Nice friendly staff. Fresh ingredients used and generous portions. Will definitely keep on coming back and will recommend

This place is owned by a childhood best mate of mine and I live about 30 mins away from La Gustosa and haven't really had a chance to come and visit and didnt want to just review because I'm mate without trying it.. so tonight I got my kids in the car and made the trip. I gotta say he has done a really good job. Pizzas were the best I've had in a while, base is soft, but crunchy heaps of toppings and good quality toppings I must say, tomato sauce awesome flavour, cheese nice,gooey and good flavour. Excellent job mate keep it up I'm proud of you.

Best pizza base I've ever had, crust was soft, fluffy yet crunchy. Base wasn't too thick. Toppings were plentiful. <br/>Our new go to pizza joint.

<br/>Felt like trying a new pizza place for cheeky beer and pizzas on a friday night. Was not disappointed! Very tasty pizza, great price. Quick delivery.

I think this might be the first time I’ve ever given a 5. We’ve had these pizzas delivered four times and each time I am impressed all over again. Delicious base, generous toppings and quick delivery. Oh, and reasonable prices - $14.50 for Margherita. And...the pizzas taste amazing the next day, cold or reheated. I recommend reheating to crisp up the crust. Honestly, it’s a pizza lovers dream. Thank you La Gustosa ❤️❤️
Meredith Shaw
I never review food but felt compelled to tell you about these great pizzas. Ordered 13 for home delivery for 22 people. Everyone of every age from 15-80 loved them. Some serious pizza consumers in the crowd and everyone was impressed. Generous toppings, crunchy base, high quality ingredients. The only disappointment was that they were scoffed on the night- no leftovers. Well done.
Mia
It's is great for takeaway and it's very cheap. But the pizza is a bit average and there is no space to eat in. But the staff are friendly and really give it that Italian vibe.🍕

Don't be fooled by the location ofthis place. Best value for money pizza going around. Pizza's are amazing, love their thin crust. Great service. A must try, you won't be disappointed, & won't be paying $25/pizza like other nearby pizza shops!
Robbyz
It's all about the sauce, stoked I can get delivery now, our office is on high St and when this place opened we were smashing the pizzas. Quality toppings generously portioned make this thin crispy based pizza a mist try
Simone Morris
Tasty pizzas, accurate with timing, and extremely well priced. Highly recommend for a good takeaway pizza.<br/>Quattro Formaggi is amazing!!!!!!
Armitage Shanks
This place punches above its weight. What it might lack in seating or 'ambience' (being located opposite a shopping centre car park), it makes up for it with delicious, well priced pizza. Really nice ingredients, crispy base, and not overloaded with toppings. Would def go again.

Top marks for the service and the pizza here. Nothing fancy, just reasonably priced, tasty pizzas. Highly recommended, hard to beat the value for money this place offers.
Imshouting
Best pizza I have ever eaten.. I've had a lot of pizza over the years, in many different states around Australia. This is hands down the best tasting pizza I have ever had. The tomato sauce is so fresh and tasty it sets the scene for the rest of the ingredients, which are also fresh, quality and mouth watering. It even tastes great when stone cold. <br/><br/>The staff are very friendly, and the care taken is top notch. Highly recommended.
Hollywoodmoment
Fairfield/Northcote best kept secret!. Trust me. This is not the kind of pizza you are expecting from a shop in a mall/plaza... Ahh back in the day when we were fools and would drive for 20+ mins to Rita's in Abbotsford... Now we have to fight the urge to not waste all the fresh fruit and veg just bought from Coles and ordering a sneaky pizza! They know they're stuff. Respect their seamless, authentic and consise menu. Their pizza is consistent and their service is genuine. You will be Pizza Tonight customers for life!
Eric Gur
Fresh, tasty the absolute best in Northcote. A real hidden little gem!
Dickmont Jones
Don't let the seedy looking corner shop front deter you away. Top qaulity ingredients a plus! Nice base and sauce! Very friendly gentlemen. They may have raised the prices but hey you gotta pay the bills! Best gourmet pizza in town!
Melodie Silva
Best pizza in Melbourne. Have tried almost every kind of pizza on the menu, and they are all so yummy! The freshest, finest ingredients are used for a truly authentic Italian taste! Service is outstanding and quick! My favourite takeaway pizza place in Melbourne.
Ped87
Love it! best pizza in Melbourne. great service too. My new favourite pizza place. Easy quick, great value for money. And super delicious!!!!!
Simon Jarman
Totally yum pizzas. Will be back!!!

Average Pizza but convenient. Its based in northcote plaza and minimalistic, comes out fast like 10mins,that's the positives and if ur in a hurry could work. Pizza itself though is super average, stiff hard bases so so toppings, its not horrible but the standard is so high in neighbouring suburbs.
Piglet
Best pizza ever! Tried it for the first time tonight and was truly blown away. There is a wonderful smell of warm bread and fresh ingredients when you enter this tiny shop, the staff are very friendly and service is super fast. I had the Italian Aussie which I must say is nothing like your average "Aussie" pizza. The base was thin, light and crispy with the perfect amount of topping i.e. You got a bit of everything with each mouthful. Will definitely be going back for more!

When I first reviewed Pizza Tonight, 2 years ago I was really positive about the pizzas and how quick their service was.<br/><br/>Sadly things have changed. The pizzas are good, especially if you just feeding kids and don't want the gourmet options from High St pizza places. However we were really let down by the service recently. I ordered 6 pizzas for home delivery because we had friends over for a casual Friday night dinner. Order was placed at 6.50 and we didn't get the pizzas until 8.10, despite receiving an SMS confirmation to say they'd be delivered at 7.38. I had to keep apologising to the horde of starving children and my adult guests. I did receive an apology phone call which was reasonable on their behalf at least.
Julinka Ulehla
Love this place!. Seriously some of the best pizza I've ever had! <br/>Northcote needed a good pizza joint! <br/>Would strongly recommend the Gustoso it is to die for, perfect perfect combination of delicious ingredients :)
Chrislizzy
Desperately seeking a good pizza. We have lived in Northcote for 20 years and for 20 years we have been searching for a quality pizza within a 5k radius of home. Who would have thought it would be found at Northcote plaza. It is serioulsy one of the best pizzas we have ever eaten. We have tried 6 from the menu and none have been disappinting, but love, love love the pancetta,. Well done on using such high quality ingriedients and still maintaining a reasonable price.
Attilio
A great hidden treasure at Northcote plaza. Pizza base was crispy and full of flavour. Premium ingredients used but great value. Great to see there are still great take always without paying afoot tune.
Jools Ristevski
I ordered pizza here after reading the reviews. Absolutely not disappointed with what I got. It smashes both For the Love of Pizza and PML up the road for price, quality, service snd most definitely taste. Awesome!
Claire Jacinta Boyce
Good price for a decent pizza. I am no pizza lover, so my partner was extremely surprised when this place caught my eye. When I walked in to look at the menu who should I see making the pizza, but the guy formerly Cafe Beddha and the Green Shed, or whatever it is called in Northcote. He is aimable, chatty, and offers decent pizza at a decent price. The last reviewer that knocked Cafe Beddha is obviously competition.
Rosiefrances
Sensational pizzas, cheap, lovely owners. I've been to Pizza Tonight a number of times and the pizza is sensational- never had a bad experience! The bases are neither thick nor thin but always crispy, and the ingredients are high quality. The service is great and fast- even when a mistake was made with my order the lovely owners graciously replaced it for me. A no frills kinda place but it's the best pizza in the north, and at 2 large pizzas for $22 it's also .excellent value.
Tandy
By far the best pizza in the North!! Beautiful crispy base, generous toppings and consistently good! Sorry but PML has had it's day, always burnt, always tight on the toppings which makes for bland, dry pizza! Although PML has good atmosphere both them and For the Love of Pizza are too interested in being urban hipsters! Leave it to the older generation who know about quality food rather than being cool dudes in skinny jeans with attitude! Grab two for $22 a 6 pack and enjoy the footy!
James Campbell
Have been here a couple of times now and really like it. Fresh I gradients, great traditional toppings/combos and reasonably priced. It's great to have found a place that does good honest pizza at a good price that isn't too bready or doughy and doesn't have a ridiculous selection of weird hipster topping combos like that 'For the Love of Pizza' racket over the road that will set you back $20 a pop for a large pizza.
Michael
Best Pizza!. This is the best pizza place i've been to in a long time. These pizza's have fresh, tasty ingredients and are well priced. Reminds me of pizza i had in Italy.
Kathy Fakhri
Seriously Delicious. Newly opened at the end of 2013, is this tucked away jewel at Northcote Plaza, near the Liquorland/Coles entrance, (on the outside). We were a bit dubious about what they may have to offer, but after a tonne of bad and overpriced pizzas, we gave it a try. This new local Pizza place is a breath of fresh air, well priced and value for money. Quality and tasty ingredients, very handy for pick up, as having no delivery service keeps the prices low and the quality high. Simple menu with great variety and some nice surprises. The base is light and the sauce delicious. We wish them well.<br/>Thank God, we've found our local Pizza place!!!!
Adamo Santos
Gustoso was indeed full of gusto. Decided to go into Pizza Tonight after shopping at Coles and turned out to be a great decision. The Gustoso pizza ( pancetta, caramelised onion, olives, cayenne pepper, garlic and finished with parmagiano cheese) was delicious. Will be back.
Vin
Below Average Food and Service. Average pizza, old bloke behind the counter is a bit off putting. Customer service needs to be addressed especially for such a new business. Whats with the table cloths out the front? Needs work to survive in Northcote with PML and For the Love of Pizza around the corner. Would even rate Café Bedda as doing better pizza than this clown.
Christina
BEST Pizza in Northcote. I am not usually a pizza fan as most pizzas are too greasy and taste too bland. I made an impromptu decision to get a take away pizza from this new shop one evening. The Sofia Special (seafood) pizza was delicious: freshly oven baked, full of yummy flavour and not greasy at all. The best pizza I have ever eaten, and I can't wait to return to try the other varieties. Prices are affordable, service is great and taste is tops. The store is a hidden gem located behind the bus stop, near the bigger Coles and Liqourland. Will be back for more soon!!
