My family is from Ontario and we’ve been going to La Hacienda for forever - my parents and extended family since before I was born. Honestly- I’ve never had anything but the pizza and wings - it’s so good we crave them and drive to the states just to have them. Local gem with lots of character and their pizza and wings can’t be beat!

Best pizza I've had in the Falls, far and away. Perfectly cooked, steaming hot, NYC style pizza. I, personally, like regular pepperoni better than the WNY style cup-n-char, but it isn't bad. Love the sauce. The best sauce I've had outside of NYC. Only reason I gave them a 4 for service is because, I tried calling both numbers on a Monday, which they're supposedly open on, called 20 or so times. Both numbers. No answer. Glad they did answer this time though.

Ive been coming to this restaurant for over 30 years when my parents would bring me here as a little kid. It was always the best pizza I'd ever had, and the quality never took a dive in all that time. When Aldo passed, I was concerned that it would no longer be the same, but had to find out for myself. I am thrilled to say that the new owners haven't changed a thing, they they take pride in maintaining the legacy of the restaurant. The food is as excellent as it ever was. Aldo would be proud!

We are from Ontario and just ate here today on a recommendation from a stranger we asked at a trampoline park at the gallaria mall. The food was fantastic! I’ve never wanted to ask to hug the owner before today. We are experienced chefs by trade and very fussy customers to make happy. Honestly the sauce on the gnocchi and the huge ravioli was just fantastic! The ravioli was so creamy and flavourful. We also had the green and beans soup, the calamari, cheese pepperoni pizza and a sausage, pepperoni, hot pepper pizza as well. This place is now my favourite Italian place! There’s nothing fancy on the plate, just good quality old school fantastic tasting food that is perfectly cooked! I have not a single negative thing to say! Perfect home cooked food! I hope this restaurant is around for a very long time now that we’ve found it!

I have asked Dave Portnoy to do his pizza review here. He has ignored my request. I understand he probably gets a thousand people everyday asking him to do reviews at their favorite hometown pizza places. I am now publicly calling out Dave Portnoy to do a pizza review at La Hacienda. Unless he retired and he is too old to drag his old ass to Niagara Falls. Dave Portnoy get on your private jet, come to Niagara Falls grab a pizza from La Hacienda go to the falls let’s get that 8.8 to 9.0 score. Let’s goooo !!!! Best Pizza this side of the Mississippi

The best pizza in Niagara Falls. I’ve been going here since childhood and the pizza has always been consistently delicious even as ownership of the restaurant has changed. Trust me, get the pizza! Note it’s cash only.

Amanda was very welcoming, cheery and friendly. This was our first visit to La Hacienda. Celebrating a birthday and the food was fresh, wholesome and very good value. Definitely coming back

Best pizza and wings ever. Massive chicken wings, crispy and juicy with traditional Buffalo wing sauce and a large portion of real blue cheese dip. Pizza was cup and char pepperoni and I can honestly say hands down best I've ever had and would come back again, again and again for this meal. Top notch.
