il Padrinos is an affordable pizza place for anybody looking for heavy, loaded pizza! only issue with the place is decor is outdated and staff are rude. Food is top notch though for a quick pizza fix and you can expect to get full!
I’ve been going here since I discovered it 13 years ago in my uni days and it’s probably been my go to pizza place in Melbourne since. Quality pizzas and service all the time and good prices!
Generous toppings, tasty sauces and a nice buttery crusty/soft warm freshly baked bread-y type of base, what more could you ask for?! Il pads is always our go to pizza hookup in St. Albans and they never disappoint. I will say though, at times their customer service is not at a fine dining restaurant level but please remember that at the end of the day, you're ordering a pizza (most likely) and all these hard working human beings are just doing their job. If you want above and beyond customer service to be part of the price you pay then go and find yourself somewhere that does some above and beyond fine dining. If you're after a delicious pizza that ticks all the boxes, give this place a go and enjoy.
Nice and friendly staff. Always a tad busy but they do their best to get the orders out promptly. Always fresh and served hot. Their pasta bake is always a good choice and a nice option if you don't always feel like pizza.
This shop is always my favourite pizza shop around the St Albans area.
There are large variety selections of pizzas, pasta and other meals and the price are very competitive.
However I do feel the pizzas were still good but not as good as before from my recent visits. Maybe this Is caused a change of ownership or staff or both.
The pizzas always have decent amount topping and well cooked from the oven, but sometimes I found the sauce can be lacking in certain area of the pizza.
The service were good and timely. Lack of parking in front so have to try the side streets or park in front of the local Woolworth.
The seating area is relatively small, but similar to most pizza shops.
Can honestly say the best pizza I've EVER had is from Il Padrino's. The crust/base is so ridiculously good, regardless of the toppings the pizza is always 10/10. Don't be fooled by the current 3.1 zomato rating, I guarantee if you try this pizza you'll never look back!
My partner and I have ordered from here twice via Menulog and have got to say both times it was really damn good. First time we ordered the burgers with a side of bacon covered wedges. Everything arrived hot, burgers were great with fresh ingredients and the wedges were still crisp which is a rarity from past experiences with other restaurants. The second time we ordered, we got the supreme pizza and the cabonara. The Pizza had an amazing base; not too thin not too thick, nice flavours and was cooked perfectly. The cabonara was amazing, probably the best I've ever had from a pizza place. Will be a regular customer now, nice work guys!!
Ordered meatlovers ($8.90) to compare to a BBQ chicken pizza that I had at "My Mate's" further up the main road, so this review will be a side by side comparison. Meat was a solid 5/5, perfect. Very well cooked and flavours were spot on. Sauce 5/5, left me feeling very satisfied and blended perfectly in the pizza. Base & crust perfect as well 5/5. I could not be happier with their pizza at this price range.
I've tried other pizza places in the west. Cannot stop raving about this place to friends so thought I'd mention it on Zomato as well. I am unhapppy that the current rating for this place is only 3.1, and feel that it misrepresents the quality of food.
Staff are very friendly, they hire locally. Prices are very reasonable for pizzas, mains, and drinks. I love this place and will keep coming back. Comparing this to other
The best pizzeria I know of in the west. The pizza bases take a lot of the credit being thick and light. Toppings are appropriate and tasty with the option to tailor to your own liking. Great value too, offering a competitive price with others in the area. It's hard to go past the pizzas on the menu which are numerous and include all the common varieties plus more. But if you are feeling like something different they do respectable burgers (including a tomato rich Yankee burger) and the most popular pasta dishes. Highly recommended! Impressive from such a humble establishment in a down-trodden area
This place never fails. I've been coming here for years (if I'm in the area) and it has never disappointed my pizza-palate. This is the best pizza place in the area. And it absolutely caters to vegos. The margarita pizza is a winner. But if you would like to try the vegetarian ones, toppings and all, I would highly recommend it.
It's also great for dine-ins. Very relaxing atmosphere inside. You sit down, mind your own business, and enjoy.
