Ordered two pizzas from Dave and Mel’s. They were soooo yummy and fresh. The crust was very crispy. Got a Pesto sauce as well and wow it was amazing!!! Highly recommend this place for pizza.

Where do you even start with this place? Honestly the best pizza my partner and I have ever had (and we eat have eaten a lot of pizza!). Every single time we order it’s THAT good too. You expect a slip up / let down every once in a while but they deliver the good stuff every single time. Normally food this food would come with some bad customer service but not here, they are both super sweet, friendly and lovely people who always have big smiles on their faces. If you like good pizza, and want to support good people, eat here. The only downside would be is that after you try this place other pizza places suck in comparison. 100/10

Amazing quality ingredients! Culinary chef in the kitchen, fun friendly staff behind the counter! Newly opened but very experience culinary wizard behind the scene. Worth the drive from cloverdale today! hands down best pizza in North Van. I tried a few of their slices. 5 cheese pleaser, family favourite and the Shredder. Got a few shots of the menu tonight!!!

Popped into this small pizza shop for lunch today with my daughter and we LOVED every slice. We went back for more because we loved it that much! The service was great too, the guy who I think was maybe the owner was so sweet. Would definitely come again! Might be our new go-to for the north shore. 5/5 pizza slices Recommend: cheese or pepperoni because that’s what we had. But I’m sure all the others are great too!! The pepperoni on the pizza were the mini ones and there were plenty spread all over the slice. It was perfect! The cheese was classic, great sauce, lots of cheese without being heavy.

Friendly owners who are passionate about pizza and highly skilled in the craft! They have personal sized pizza which you can customize and order to your liking! They have well proofed dough and use top notch ingredients. A must try if you're a pizza lover. Head on down and try it out.

If you're looking for top-quality pizza in Lower Lonsdale, Dave & Mel's Pizzeria is the place to go. Their pizzas taste like they came straight from a high-end restaurant—perfectly chewy crust, packed with flavor, and made with top-notch ingredients. Every bite is a delight! Jafar, the owner, is incredibly friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. You can tell they put real care into their food and customer service. Definitely a must-try spot for pizza lovers in North Vancouver!

Absolutely delightful as far as pizza goes! Me and my partner were thoroughly impressed. We ordered on DoorDash so we were shocked at how big it was when it arrived. Definitely couldn’t finish the 16inch in one go but I’m excited to have it as leftovers - it was that good.
