👍👍 First time and all we indulged in was some garlic bread (average) and one large pizza (half and half). The pizza was brilliant. The facility is cosy and interesting. The staff were nice and attentive. And the price excellent. I mean there was no cordage cost hence the price for 2 people was very che...

    This pizza joint has been my go-to spot for years, and it's simply amazing! Their pizzas are out of this world, and I keep coming back for more. One thing that really stands out is the generous portion size and wallet-friendly prices. I always leave feeling stuffed and satisfied, and the prices won't break the bank. The staff are super friendly and always make me feel welcome. The vibes are chill, and they provide great service. And let's talk about the pizza toppings! They pile them on generously, and each bite is a flavor explosion. It's a pizza lover's dream come true! With their killer pizzas, generous portions, affordable prices, friendly staff, and epic pizza toppings, this place is my absolute favorite! Can't wait to keep coming back for more of their amazing pizzas!

    Authentic Italiano food. Oysters Kilpatrick is my favourite! Nostalgic place especially if you are big fan of Al Pacino.

    10 to 15 minutes, is what they always say whenever I order a pizza, it’s been over 15 minutes and I’m still waiting, Harry needs to get back asap, because tbh. This place is about to loose another regular customer. Timing is everything….fix it. Another thing I’ve noticed is a constant slight change in the cost, $20 last time…$21 this time.

    When Harry isn't around the place falls apart. Found what looked like a very thick dark hair in the dough of the pizza. I gave the plate with slice of pizza to the waitress who took it to the staff at the front and they said it was a loose strand from the oil brush. No apology and no offer to replace the pizza. They didn't even have the decency to bring me a new plate and fork. And was charged full price for the pizza! Absolutely disgraceful and Harry will be furious to read this as we have been going there for a very long time and now we are looking for a replacement!

    I've eaten in, but we mainly get our pizzas and pastas delivered from here. Pizzas 🍕 are loaded with toppings, and we quite like the 4corners BC it gives us some variety. Food is good fresh and also next day😉

    WORST OF THE WORST! Seriously, people cook in this restaurant should have cooking lessons! The pizza was soggy and falling apart. Other dishes also not fresh. I can cook better food at home with my eyes closed. If you are the owner reading this, please watch how to make pizza videos in YouTube. That’s the least you could do!

    We've been coming here for years, for take away pizza. Delicious pizza, great local family run business, always people there dining in. Good old fashioned daggy restaurant that people love. Don't change a thing.

    Had dinner there last night. All of the main courses were spot on, large and great value. My Al Tonno pizza was the best I had for ages and just so tasty. Plus comfortable and very welcoming service. Recommended.

    I recently had a last-minute New Year's Eve dinner with my family at this place. Despite the unimpressive exterior, the cozy atmosphere and diverse menu options inside pleasantly surprised us. The prices were reasonable, and the staff, especially were friendly. I highly recommend it for family dinners, earning it a solid 4 stars.

    Ordered a pick up from Pacino's Monday night and we were truly pleased with this place. Quality fillings and beautiful flavours. The prawn pizza had generous serving of prawns, with pesto to die for! The vegertarian was again a wholesome dish with a ton of mushrooms, capsicum and eggplant pieces. Both pizzas were topped with a pickled sun-dried tomato which was again perfect. Will order again. Well worth it as it carried over for two nights for two people. Thank you!

    Very nice and friendly staff. Highly recommend the pasta - the menu is huge with every favourite option to choose from. The atmosphere is very cosy, with lots of Italian decorations and choices of local or Italian wine. Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Nick H. 2 months ago on Google • 6 reviews New
    Delicious traditional Italian food. Can taste the pasta is homemade and very generous portions. The wine list is amazing value, even for genuine Italian bottles. The service is very friendly and welcoming.

  • 5/5 Jake B. 3 months ago on Google • 3 reviews New
    Wow must say I was really impressed. I ordered a large meal, 2 pizzas and a pasta. Through door dash as a first time customer. After a massive day of not eating anything we absolutely loved the food. If your into that really modern pizza style this is not the place but if you want a great tasting pizza with a huge amount of toppings and a really unique great flavour that I haven't had from other pizza places in this price range I would 100 percent recommend Pacino's. I got a large capricosa with hot salami and anchovies and a large margarita with pineapple along with a spag bol. And honestly the capricosa was absolutely next level, the margarita was exactly what you would expect and the spag bol was really really good. Sometimes you get these average frozen taste from takeaway joints but this place is NOT that. It tastes great honestly give it a go I guarantee you will like the food. The price point was really good I had a discount through doordash so I pain 38 bucks for two large pizza and a pasta and the pizza isn't a fake large either they are a proper large size with a heap of fresh toppings. I will definitely be ordering again and will from now on make this my go to Italian place as I recently moved into the area. I ordered simple good but let's be real we all love a classic margarita and spaghetti Bolognese takes you straight back to your childhood and that's the fundamental of Italian food and why it's so good...SIMPLE and FRESH can't go wrong it's a proven method! Next time I will try the steak and maybe a fancier pizza and fancier pasta but for tonight we just wanted some good old fashioned Italian comfort food !!

    I literally could not find a single fault with this place. I love everything about them! Absolutely the best value for money without compromising quality hands down in all of Doncaster!

  • 3/5 Kay S. 5 months ago on Google
    Compared to two months ago, the food was a disappointment. We (6) had regular meals not pizza. The chicken and mushroom crepe was unrecognisable and the schnitzel was submerged under the sauce. Perhaps they have a new chef.

  • 2/5 Niu J. 5 months ago on Google
    1 hour to deliver a pizza is actually embarrassing. It should NOT take so long to deliver food. The pizza was quite tasty but definitely on the very greasy side. Just can't fathom why it should take an hour to deliver pizza, locally!!

  • 5/5 Nigel N. 4 months ago on Google
    Very much a family owned business feel, menu has expansive choices in pizza or pasta dishes, flavoursome and good value!

    Got a small Hawaiian pizza for takeaway that I ordered online for pick up. Sooo good and the crust was crunchy and cooked so well. Good price too, guy making the pizza was nice.

  • 4/5 PINPOINT L. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely little local restaurant. Saturday night & was fully booked so must have good reputation. Like so many hospitality at the moment, appears to be understaffed & not well trained. No customer talk, wait too long & not all orders correct. Food was classic Italian & value for money.

  • 5/5 Vinson Soon Sian T. 10 months ago on Google
    The pizza here is really value for money. Even better than Dominos. Friendly staff where the staff are mainly family members

  • 5/5 Jojo T. 1 year ago on Google
    Great local pizza place. Super friendly, fantastic pizza and pasta. Can recommend

  • 5/5 Danesh P. 2 years ago on Google
    Humble, comfortable and clean dining environment with cool Al Pacino wall arts. Great pizzas, generous in size without the overly cheesy/greasy fill. Crust is very easy to digest too. Also, you don't get the usual "sorry kitchen is closed at 9 pm" like most other pizza places in Doncaster.

  • 5/5 Deshan g. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the best Italian restaurant I’ve been to in Melbourne. Kind and friendly service. The staff makes sure that you are happy with everything and the food is just amazing. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for an Italian dinner night!

  • 1/5 Renee B. 1 year ago on Google
    I had made a Menulog order, ordered a steak and chips and upon eating my meal the steak was like rubber. Absolutely dry, chewy and not edible in the slightest. I had called the restaurant asking politely if they wouldn’t mind making the steak again or offer a refund as it was not medium rare like I had asked. I was told if I wanted another steak I would have to pay for it despite their mistake. Extremely unprofessional.

  • 5/5 Basil S. 1 year ago on Google
    We ordered seafood pizza, pasta, and chicken parma. All items were fresh and the service was spot on. The staff was quite friendly too!

  • 5/5 Carol M. 1 year ago on Google
    Friendly family run restaurant with great food and services. Good variety of pizza, pasta and mains. Lovely place keeps us coming back!!

  • 5/5 Viggy C. 1 year ago on Google
    We ordered Bolognese last night and staff gave us the other pasta accidently, but it was really tasty and we were happy to have it, but staff insisted to give us the correct one. Good service and nice food! Become one of our family's favorite local restaurants now!

  • 5/5 John H. 1 year ago on Google
    Used to come here regularly pre covid, was always very good food, lovely people and guess what nothing's changed, Pizzas 🍕 are exactly the style i prefer, plenty of topping nice and thick , nice crust well cooked and still at the moment very good reasonable prices , in my opinion based in the area if you like this style of Pizza, if you like Artisan style Pizza go to Da Pino but you'll pay double the price! Sit in food is great too but you'll have to book early .

  • 4/5 Sarah C. 1 year ago on Google
    Good food and drinks. Nice staff. Service is a little slow. Be careful as some items on the menu cost more & it gets you when you go pay at end even after telling staff menu price is cheaper and is price they legally have to charge. Just told we need to update the menu prices. Online menu is takeaway price which is cheaper then in store.

  • 5/5 Megan N. 1 year ago on Google
    Exceptional food and service, had a friend's birthday dinner and the staff were amazing ☺️, food was to die for, will definitely be returning back for another meal. One of my new favourite places to eat out or pick up.

  • 1/5 Sofia Anne C. 1 year ago on Google
    The lady in charge is so rude to shy away customer who has a booking ! I make a booking at 6:15 pm today and when I arrived . She told me that is fully booked and her staff make a mistake of putting up a reservation . If you have put for a reservation you should have honour the booking. What the point of having a booking and you shy away customer away . Don’t recommend this place .

  • 5/5 Shannon Y. 1 year ago on Google
    A family favourite for dining in and take out with something on the menu for everyone. Great food! Attentive service! Affordable prices!

  • 5/5 Axle M. 10 months ago on Google
    Enjoyed the food sooooo much, great pizza, pasta and service. Authentic taste, Nice relaxed friendly atmosphere. Can't wait to try the other meals on the menu soon. Thank you!!!

  • 4/5 Cee K. 1 year ago on Google
    Warm Friendly staff, delicious food Favourite venue but it looks like they charged me 1.5% surcharge with no notice for Amex

  • 5/5 Angelo G. 11 months ago on Google
    Nice place... Old style pizza which is great... Nice service...

  • 5/5 Jia Yue F. 11 months ago on Google • 1 review
    Delicious pizza absolutely packed with toppings! The boss who made our pizza was extremely welcoming and service was fast. They said 20 minutes for the entire combo of large The Lot pizza, pasta, garlic bread and a 1.25L drink for $32.50 and was done on time. Definitely recommend this take away deal and the pizzas here!

    The best Italian in Doncaster. The menu has all the classics that you want, cooked perfectly and with generous portions. The service is always very friendly and efficient. Lots of regular customers come every week because it’s the best food and really good prices.
