Gentile Pizza Parlour isn’t your average pizzeria. Run by the second-generation Gentiles—Anthony Jr., Paolo, and Anna Maria—the Westmount spot expands on the family’s well-loved Café Gentile brand with a deep dive into New York-style pizza and Sicilian “Brooklyn-style” squares. Designed by Zébulon Perron, the space channels the charm of 1980s New York and childhood rec rooms with a bit of Italian retro flair and a slice counter that feels ready-made for the neighbourhood.
In the kitchen, pizzaiolos master their dough to the fore through every detail from hydration levels to a just-right pepperoni with intense dried-cured flavour. The pizzas range from classic 16-inch pies to indulgent creations like the white truffle and seven-cheese pizza with cipollini onion and truffle honey. It’s elevated while staying humble: light yet satisfying, with each ingredient in balance.
