During the pandemic, account manager and former line cook Josh McIlwaine started Mac’s Pizza, a Saturday-only side hustle, in his apartment—and sold out of the NY–style pies every week. At his new Bloordale restaurant, he turns out whole pizzas and floppy slices to stay or go. Eating in? Grab a wedge of his Grandma Pie, crispy-chewy focaccia-like crust slathered in a straight-up sauce of Bianco DiNapoli tomatoes, and a glass of natural wine. 759 Dovercourt Rd., macspizza.ca
