Milorad and Vesna Gutovic are no strangers to the market scene. For many years, the Yugoslavia natives operated a produce stand in the market in their hometown. The Gutovic family now makes its home in Kitchener, where they own and operate Bolero Pizza & Pasta House during the week. On Saturdays, they have working locations on both the upper and lower levels of the market. They are perhaps best known locally for their thin-crust pizza which is the staple of their market shop. Their menu also includes noodles made fresh each morning, as well as a variety of specialty pasta dishes, salads, soups, sandwiches and freshly squeezed juices.

Impress your guests with Bolero’s fresh meals by ordering in advance for a special occasion.
