I come all the time and am delighted by the food and workers. It's some of the best pizza I've had and the employees are always very kind and welcoming. It's a great place to eat and I would reccommend it to anyone in the area.

Cute little place, lovely pizza and friendly service. Their sourdough base is thicker than the typical Naepolitan pizza and the crust is a bit harder, so keep this in mind if you prefer an airy crust, thin base. Great toppings, fresh and tasty. We brought our own beer as they offer BYOB

So glad we found this place after visiting Tramway museum in this neighborhood. We had 2 different pizza Pollo Picante and Capricciosa, light, tasty, fresh, thin base, both delicious. The staff was very attentive and we had great service. The atmosphere in Dini pizza was very welcoming. Highly recommend.

Lovely family run cafe/restaurant. I've eaten pizza here twice and the food is amazing. Really tasty and fresh. You can take your own wine and pay corkage. Friendly service. Thoroughly recommended!

Ordered 12 pizzas to add to buffet at party recently. Didn’t manage to get any myself but I’m told they were fabulous. Excellent service and scrumptious pizza (so I’m told!) Would recommend

A great addition to the neighborhood. The service was brill and the staff were genuinely friendly. The pizza was fantastic and they accomodated my vegan requirements by swapping the mozzarella out for a different topping. It was BYOB so we picked up some bottles from the shop around the corner before going.

We had a lovely pizza dinner here last night. Standard base was reportedly (by my family) great and my gluten free base and spicy chicken (with sweetcorn addition) was amazing!! Friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Would highly recommend.
