We ordered two Margherita pizzas from Woodstock’s distributor for tonight’s dinner at home and were so impressed. We heated in our own oven but their pizzas had that wood fire taste and bubbly crust. We added anchovies to one of the Margherita bases and ham, mushrooms, capsicum and chilli to their other and they made for a perfect Friday at home meal. Would definitely have again and look forward to dining in once covid restrictions are lifted

Second time we were here. The meals are better prepared during the weekdays. Friday dinner is such a rush . The blue swimmer squid ink spaghetti is amazing but pricy.
Signature Woodstock pizza was ok . May try other meals next time.
Quick service during lunchtime on weekdays. Nice taste pizza very Italian style. Not overflavored.
Friendly staff and very quick service. Food came out within 10 minutes. Loved the amount of cheese on the Margherita pizza. Delicious
Really enjoyed it here! Pizza was great, very big serving and the drinks was good! Price can range from $20-30 so pretty average. They make the best cocktails 💕 will definitely come back again
This is one of my parents’ favourite places to have a meal when they visit me from Melbourne. They serve excellent pizzas and I’m in love with their Pappardelle Al Ragu Della Nona. It’s so tasty, and they even provide you with a side of powdered cheese. Being a big fan of cheese, you can expect that I added lots of it! 🤤
The mrs and I came here and tried the Woodstock Pizza. Hands down best pizza I've ever tried. Loved it. Didnt give it 5 stars because it was a little pricey but oh well

So I am not sure why this place does not have 5/5 star reviews but I guess some people are bored and one slight micro problem makes them become keyboard maniacs. I will have to say we come here 3 times a week! I am not the type to write a review but I must shut some peoples mouths on here! The service is FANTASTIC! I was in Italy and I still didn’t find a better carbonara than the one we eat here! As for the fish I AM IN LOVE! All the staff are so nice! I purposely don’t cook 3 times in the week so I can come here and enjoy the best Pizzas and pasta! LOVE LOVE LOOOOOOVE THIS PLACE! You MUST try it!
Best pizza ever! My friend & I went here before our movie, we were a bit skeptical at first as it was busy & weren’t too sure if we would get our food in time. We were quickly shown to a table & had a look at the menu. My friend & I got to share 2 pizzas; one being the Bunga Bunga pizza & the other being the San Daniele. We also got the potato croquettes. The food came out extremely fast! You could see how hard working the staff in the kitchens and on the floor were working! The pizza was delicious! I really liked the Bunga Bunga because it had potato on it. I didn’t particularly like the potato croquettes since there wasn’t much too them & they were $15. But the pizzas were definitely relatively priced for how good they tasted!

How good is it to be able to find a wood fire pizza in Chadstone? Super good I’d say. I love coming here for lunch after having some retail therapy. Thanks for always providing decent meal and lovely service 😀🙌🏻
We came here based on recommendations from our friends, and it didn’t disappoint. We had arrancini balls for starters and then shared pizzas for mains (plus the kids spaghetti bolognase). The pizzas had fantastic flavours and light and fluffy bases that were just the right thickness. Like many of the previous reviews we found that this restaurant was on the pricey side ($150 for 4 1/2) however well worth the visit.

I love this place!
The pizza dough itself is absolutely amazingly yum.
I love that they have a FULL vegan menu with pizzas, pastas and appetizers.
On Wednesday they have specials on the vegan menu too, so I often go on my lunch break!
A great place to bring a friend or a date before/after a movie, or while you are shopping at Chadstone.
Edit: recently went AGAIN and was looked after Amanda who was amazing. Would definitely recommend you try and vegan pizza AND pasta. Just divine. They have sorbet which is vegan too. I was stuffed!
We went here before our movie, and we order a couple of pizzas. The pizza was absolutely delicious and while we were surrounded by some crazy kids we did enjoy the food!
Ordered food on a Friday night busy full resturant food was out within 5 mins which was shock and tasted great . Authentic pizzas with real Italian workers, will definitely come back.
We love to sit & watch them pump out all the pizza orders for a busy Saturday lunch crowd. The efficiency & precision is just amazing. We had calamari to start. Then we share a porcini mushroom pizza & a Napoli pizza. Nice variety.
The staff were friendly and accomodating . The pizza I ordered came out quickly . It was very tasty . Well worth going . I have been a few times to Woodstock .
The service here was disappointing to say the least. No simple smiles or communication. However the woodfire pizza was exceptional. Perfectly balanced and well cooked. Great toppings, sauce and presentation
Some delightful pizzas! We had a few coffees also to finish up our meals and they were fantastic. The food was damn good and attentive service. The deserts were pretty pricey though. I recommend booking as it was super busy for a Friday night!
Out for a light meal with a friend and had arancini balls which were really nice. We had a sorbet coffee mousse after which was a definite winner.
Good size meal and all the dish we ordered were delicious!! Staff are all friendly. Took a while for all the dishes to come out but it didn't bother us
Absolutely amazing. Food came fast and hot whilst still busy. All the food was amazing, Polpette, pizza, pasta, chicken, wine , chips. All fantastic and the waitresses / waiters were great. Thankyou- refreshing to smile when you pay a bill at a restaurant lately!
Enjoy this restaurant alot. Excellent pizza and few other dishes which we tried. Very good service. Reasonable prices. Will definitely be back again.
We enjoyed a nice lunch at Woodstock after a busy day shopping around Chadstone. Their pizzas are woodfired and very yummy. We highly recommend trying the antipasto meat platter for an entree. We finished off our lunch with a yummy donut or two! All staff were very friendly with most of them being from overseas.
I ordered the lamb salad it was really filling and refreshing. Substituted the beetroot for avocado for no extra charge which I thought was really accomodating from Woodstock :)
Could have had a little more dressing but overall good experience
Food was served really fast too
Woodstock Pizzicheria has been around since their Nicholson Street store first opened in 1994. Since then they have expanded to different locations such as Brunswick, Essendon and their most recent location, at the Chadstone Shopping Centre. As Woodstock Pizzicheria was introduced to Chadstone along with Chadstone's massive renovation and the opening of the new dining terrace, they recently celebrated their 1st birthday. We were lucky enough to be invited to share in this celebration event with them and to meet some of the people behind Woodstock Pizzicheria, as well as try some of their food.
What an awesome dining area that Chadstone boasts now and Woodstock is part of what makes it great. Delicious pizzas, pastas and starters, it is a proper dining experience even though you’re in a shopping centre.
As I write this their current zomato rating is 2.5 which I find really hard to believe. Staff and service was good. Had the Woodstock pizza (potato, zucchini, eggplant etc). Was very tasty and came quickly. One or two spots on the edge were charcoal burnt so a slight negative but no big deal. I enjoyed the pizza and watching the guys cook them with lots of attention. Decor of the place is good. Their average rating should really be closer to 3.5.
Woodstock offers traditional Roman-style pizzas, as well as pastas and salads. We shared a ‘Capricciosa Pizza – San Marzano tomatoes, mozzarella, smoked ham, mushrooms, Ligurian olives, and artichokes ($23.00)’.
Unlike some other reviews here, we had a great experience. We only had about an hour as we had to catch a movie, we advised the staff of this and they looked after us to ensure our pizzas come out reasonably quick. Hubby and I both ordered the Minchia (spicy salami with roasted red peppers) and it was delicious! Thin based crust with light toppings. Overall, we were impressed and will be coming back.
Food was great and service was excellent.
Pleasantly surprised given the reviews on Zomato. We went here for a girls dinner prior to movie. We were in a rush and had noted this to the wait staff, they made note for food to come quite quick. I had the seafood pasta which I was craving for, absolutely delish (I love that it came out in parchment paper too.. super cute). The pizza's were all delish, some better than others - would recommend the margarita pizza and the potato, the eggplant pizza was slightly soggy. I ordered the pasta so wasn't disappointed.. cooked aldente, just how I like it!
The food is very authentic and the staff are fabulous and a lot of them are actually Italian with gorgeous Italian accents. We sat in the one of the Booths at the back of the restaurant which was flooded with natural light. ( we were there for lunch ) Great ambience and beautifully fitted, the pizzas are to die for and very traditional. If I remember correctly there is a long family history to do with Italy and a dough recipe handed down from generation to generation . Oh.... and we didn't make it out of the restaurant without giving in to a refreshing gelato to go from the Italian Gelato stand at the front of the Woodstock Pizzicheria. I highly recommend the Stuffed Olives, they are truly delicious and a very different flavour. Enjoy! 5 Stars from us! 👍🏼❤️
Loved loved loved the pizza here. Traditional Italian style. We had the Minchia. Absolutely top quality ingredients.. Molto Bueno................
Mama Mia! 🍕😍 🇮🇹 THIS PIZZA FOR ME❓😳

📍 Woodstock Pizzicheria (Chadstone Shopping Center) 💥🍕🍕🍕❤️😍
The true taste of Italy - Excellent service, very clean, friendly staff and one of the best pizzas I've ever had! I will definitely be back.
Book ahead! We've been wanting to try this a few times but have never been able to get a table so we Finally booked ahead last week!
Decor and environment of the restaurant is great; comfy and relaxing. The perfect spot for a bite before/after the movies. The service wasn't too bad either. We shared an entree, a pasta and a pizza, with two wines. Extremely quick coming out of the kitchen and the food was good. Not amazing but good enough. And all for just under $100 - not bad at all.
Came here on a Saturday night and were seated quite promptly at the kitchen pass on high stools. Here we could see all the action and were even given a try of the olive and veal starters by the chef directly
The vibe of the restaurant is warm and friendly with Italian being spoken by nearly every staff member. Food was tasty but not worth the price we paid and the service was a bit slow. So room for improvement, but certainly a place to visit
Chadstone shopping centre has been well known as the fashion capital, but now can also lay claim to being one of the thriving food hubs in Melbourne. Last year in October , Chadstone underwent a major redevelopment , and as a result, the shopping centre now boasts two dining precints consisting of well known establishments such as the Burger Project, New Shanghai and Fonda. Along with these restaurants, there is also Woodstock Pizzicheria, New Shangahi, Mama's Buoi, Marae Izakaya and Mezz, which shows that Chadstone offers a high caliber of food offerings for all visitors.
Woodstock, Chadstone shopping center, cuisine- Italian. OMG chadstone has a restaurant section now! Much needed, one thing this whole new chadstone development has done is made parking a nightmare- but anyways I don't review parking so I will leave that grudge for now 🤐. So after a movie what do you do - find a pizza place, luckily there was one right there. Much busy we managed to get a table in 10-15 mins (much less than the time spent to find parking!! Sorry - I will let it go!). We ordered just a pizza and it was definitely one of the better ones. There were 4-6 vegetarian options so I liked it. Not one of the best pizzasI have had - well Melbourne has places like Gradi and Tipo00 so standards have been raised. However definitely one of the best in the 'burbs so I shouldn't complain ( will not talk about parking again 😤). Not very many vegetarian pasta options which is always a disappointment for me. Great place to hang out after a movie or a shopping spree and watch the massive crowd that descends on chadstone everyday! @woodstockpizzicheria @chadstone_fashion @hoytsaustralia #rating3.5 #foodconossieur #pizzalover #missedpasta #woodfiredpizzaalways #vegetarianrocks #lovefoodlivefood #lovebeingavegetarian #vegbourne #melbournefoodie #melbourne #chadstoneshoppingcentre #hoyts #moviedate #instablogger #foodblogger #tryingnewplaces #lovemylife ❤️❤️

Been here about 4 times now, and I'm always satisfied with the food. Pizzas are well made, delicious and service and ambience is excellent! Would recommend.
Friendly manager and the beautiful atmosphere to dine in. They exactly know how to take care of their customer and the food was delicious. We had couple of pizza and eggplant melangaine and few drinks to share and that was more than enough between 3 of us...
Excellent authentic pizza and delicious pasta. Friendly and attentive staff, and quick service even during busy times. Good prices too, considering the high quality of the food.
Really friendly staff and delicious food!!! We had the meatballs to start and then pasta afterwards, such generous serves and yummy! Will definitely come back!

TAKE MY MONEY!
Whether you order something as simple as the arancini or the Melanzane Parmigiana, you will not be disappointed. This restaurant provides not only friendly service but an authentic Italian menu followed with amazing flavours. Have yet to not enjoy anything on this menu and ensure you ask for buffalo mozzarella with your veal stuffed olives.
10/10 and will continue to return to Woodstock @ Chadstone!
A lazy Saturday afternoon at the shopping centre, we stopped here for a rest and a coffee. Average coffee and fries. Very nice place though, relaxing and beautiful decors. Staff were also very nice and tentative. However this place was quite on the expensive side, two coffee and a bowl of chips set us back $20. Maybe ill just come back for a quick coffee next time.
Came here for lunch and it wasn't that busy. The pizza in our opinion was pretty average tasting, we can't really taste the truffle in it. The antipasto was great and had a wide selection of toppings. Service was friendly and helpful which helps with the rating.

We have eaten here a few times over the last couple of years and always order a pizza as they are deliciously authentic cooked in a wood fired oven. The menu has changed since our last visit with some new welcome additions and a few favourites now gone. Prices have also increased but you get what you pay for with the ingredients fresh and beautifully cooked. Staff are always very pleasant and knowledgeable... Highly recommended... 😋
Pizza and service is always amazing
Espresso Martini? Mmmhm
Desert plate anyone? $14.95 for this huge plate of crispy doughnuts and homemade nuttela poured all over . It satisfief the 4 of us.
Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. We ordered a chilli prawn pizza, salmon salad, steak with mashed potatoes and arancinis. Everything was ok, very decent flavour and well presented. Portions were ok. Not abondanza but reasonably priced. My favorite was that silky mashed potato with truffle... really enjoyed it.
The food was good but service could be improved. We had the braised beef cheek and the lamb with potato mash. The staff were mostly attentive but the waiter serving our food didn't know what dishes they were and just placed them down. When we were paying our bill, the waiter was talking to his colleague and didn't say good bye or acknowledge us as we left.
