Il Padrino's Pizza Pasta Restaurant

Padrinos is a budget-friendly pizzeria perfect for anyone craving a hearty, generously topped pizza! The only downside is that the decor is a bit outdated and the staff can be unfriendly. However, the food is excellent, providing a satisfying pizza fix that will leave you feeling 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!

I have always considered this restaurant to be my favorite pizza place in the St Albans area. They offer a wide variety of pizzas, pastas, and other dishes at competitive prices. However, during my recent visits, I felt that the quality of the pizzas had declined slightly. This could be due to a change in ownership or staff. The pizzas still have a decent amount of toppings and are cooked well in the oven, but at times I found the sauce to be lacking in certain areas. The service was good and efficient. Parking is limited in front of the restaurant, so it is advisable to park on the side streets or in front of the local Woolworth. The seating area is small, but typical of most pizza places.

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. <br/ 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. <br/ <br/ 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
