Red Ember Common

Delicious. Each pizza I’ve tried has been delicious. Lots of flavour, fresh pizza dough (great chew), and quick service. Always a pitstop for me when I go to the Forks.

Their margarita pizza is seriously delicious and the strawberry lemonade is addicting! The pizza sauce was very rich and flavourful. The cheese melted in my mouth and the tomato’s were a delightful burst of flavour. The crust is very soft and on the thin side which I prefer but if you prefer pizza with a thicker crust this probably isn’t the right pizza place for you.

I had the most amazing experience at this pizza place! From the moment I walked in, the cozy ambiance made me feel right at home. The pizza was cooked to perfection with a crispy, golden crust that had just the right amount of char. I ordered a margherita pizza, and the fresh basil and ripe tomatoes paired beautifully with the gooey, melted mozzarella cheese. The sauce was rich and tangy, adding a delightful burst of flavor in every bite. What really stood out was the variety of toppings they offered; I was tempted to try several different combinations. The staff was super friendly and attentive, making sure our drinks were filled and checking in on us without being intrusive. Plus, the prices were reasonable for the quality of food we received. I can't wait to go back and explore more of their menu!

Red Ember makes some very good pizza tops, but they sure don't make good bottoms. The flavors above the dough are excellent. I loved the meats, sauce, and oils I had. However, the dough was extremely flimsy, soft, and literally soggy when served. It clearly needed to be cooked longer or somehow firmes up. This is otherwise a five star review, but I can rate this higher while the bottom needs work. For $20 that should be the last thing needing correcting.

The pizza is no different from any other. It is tasty, the dough is well-baked and crispy, and there are a lot of toppings. If you're in the forks and you're craving pizza, this is the only place you can go and you won't be disappointed. One of the few dishes that you can take away in a box and eat outside, e.g. on sunbeds. In my opinion prices are little bit too high..

We couldn't decide on the classic or Margherita, so the person taking our order offered to do a half and half pizza. Both sides were absolutely delicious. One of the best pizzas we've had in a LONG time.

This ours so greasy the toppings fall off, yuck. I thought this was supposed to be gourmet. Update: can’t even use a knife and fork because the crust is raw.

This is my go-to place for gourmet pizza in Winnipeg. They always make it just right, so there's no need to ask for extra cheese. They are generous with the toppings.

I thought the person I was with ordered The Crete-Za which has dill walnut pesto and goat cheese and pickled onions. The onions were not bad but I really love goat cheese and it just wasn't very flavourful or very strong tasting in this pizza. Goat cheese is usually very strong tasting. A very strong cheese. The pizza overall was okay in a mild cheese pizza kind of way but I prefer cheese to taste like high quality cheese. Maybe another option would have had more authentic flavours. Service was normal but a bit terse/tense.

The pizza here was a true surprise. The dough is a bit thicker than traditionally made pizza but it turned out to be what makes their pies so good. They put in the effort to proof dough; no shortcuts and no hurry. A shiny electric oven that reaches over 800 degrees is what brings out the flavors and makes the fresh ingredients so good. Honestly, I can say that this is some of the best pizza I've had in Canada.

The pizza is pretty good, but the staff are not super friendly. I left a big tip and didn't even get a thank you for a takeout order.

This place is the best. The "Hot and Honey" and the "Twist and Sprout" are delicious, unique pizzas that you can't get anywhere else. In the summer, they do a tomato salad with mascarpone and mint that I wait all year for, and we always get an order of their olives with honey and lemon. The staff are always very sweet, and the food is done in under ten minutes, which is a relief when you're sitting there salivating over the thought of dinner!

+.5 for service The opening of Red Ember Common in The Forks Market was met with huge fanfare, as Red Ember is a popular pizza food truck in Winnipeg. I've also been looking forward to this place ever since I tried their pizza at ManyFest and really enjoyed it. Their menu isn't too extensive, but all your Red Ember staples are available here. I had the GOB pizza, which I had when I went to ManyFest. There's still some teething issues when it came to the cashier, which resulted me in not paying taxes for my pizza. Huh... The pizza actually came pretty quick, considering the popularity of this place. While the size of the pizza looks quite big, it's actually quite puffy, therefore it's not really that big at all. Although the pizza was delicious, it was unfortunately burnt in a few spots. The price was reasonable, if not a little bit higher than expected. Regardless, Red Ember Common is a fantastic addition to the bustling Forks Market. It's not a place I'll go religiously, but it's another option in the list of places I'll go to when I'm here.

Third time going here for a pizza and it's always great food! Our favorite is the GOB

You have to work really hard to ruin a simple pizza. I ordered a pesto pizza; the pesto was mostly low quality oil with green food coloring little parsley and defiantly no pine nuts or walnuts. There was so much pickled onion that it became the base flavor. I asked the server to bring some red pepper flakes - never happened, I can't blame busy I was only one of two people sitting at the counter. I ordered a glass of Chardonnay, it had turned and was closer to a sparkling wine. Did I say anything no, why bother these were nice kids just turning a buck - they'll get paid wether you eat there or not. The food court has lots of options, try something else.

pretty great pizza all around. I had one gross piece but that's bound to happen with pizza, not all pieces will be good. Anyway fast service and i got my pizza within 8 minutes of ordering. vegetarian friendly and it isn't disgusting.
