Great food Great service Excellent staff & owners
great pizza and great vibes!
If you feel so guilty about being on “stolen” land, sell your business and all of your assets, donate all the money from that to the local fn band and move back to Italy.
Unless you’re not Italian, which brings up questions around cultural appropriation.

Basic Goodness Pizzeria is a popular Italian pizzeria in Tofino, known for its authentic Italian pizza made with primarily Italian ingredients. The owner, from Italy, brings his passion to baking delicious pizzas in a wood-fired oven, which gives the pizzas a warm, flavorful taste. The friendly staff is patient and accommodating, making it a good choice for families. The casual and relaxed space is well designed, suitable for lunch, dinner, or a quick bite. The pizza crust is perfectly chewy and crunchy, with a look that reflects authentic Italian pizza. The menu offers a variety of pizzas, including a vegan option with shiitake mushrooms, kale, roasted garlic, olives, roasted red peppers, and artichoke, with a crust that is both chewy and crispy. Portions are generous and big enough to share if not too hungry. The location by the waterfront adds to the appeal, though it can get busy during peak hours, so a wait for a table might be needed. Service is prompt and friendly, with the owner happy to share about the restaurant and the island. Customers praise the pizza, especially the Diavolo with spicy pork sausage, and enjoy the lively atmosphere with upbeat background music and live hockey on TV. The crust is crispy and easy to chew, and the marinara sauce is often highlighted for its flavor, served in a medium bowl with olive oil and basil. Overall, Basic Goodness Pizzeria offers excellent pizzas enjoyed by many and provides a genuine taste of Italy in Tofino.
