“Gino's Pizza is a great spot if you’re craving classic, no-nonsense pizza. The slices are fresh, cheesy, and satisfying, with a crust that has just the right balance of softness and crispiness. It’s the kind of place that keeps things simple and gets the basics right.

The menu usually has a good variety of options beyond pizza too, making it easy to grab a quick meal whether you’re dining in or taking out. Service is typically fast and efficient, and the staff is friendly and straightforward.

It has a casual, neighborhood feel that makes it a reliable go-to whenever you want something quick, filling, and tasty.

★★★★★ 5/5 — Great pizza, solid portions, and a dependable spot for a quick and satisfying meal.”

“I was visiting friends in NY, and on the day of my return to FL, my girlfriend took me to Panino Rustico, where I met JACK, he was excellent and authentic New Yorker, with accent and all (adorable).. The menu choices are excellent, we had truffle fries, I had the P48 Panini (steak, mozzarella with peppers & onions) and to cap off as a desert, I had the Iced Nutella Latte... All were excellent. I love a Hot Panini and it was perfect, flavors were cheesy perfect. Even the ambiance was charming and the Service was impeccable. I truly cannot say enough. So when you go, say HI to Jack!!

I also really appreciate how easy it is to customize; if there’s a specific ingredient you don’t like, they’ll make the adjustment without you having to pick a whole different wrap. The balance is perfect too - never overly sauced but never dry either. On top of that, the staff is always super friendly, which makes the experience even better. Highly recommend!”

“Half chicken with chicken fried rice was good so no complaints there. I ordered some BBQ ribs on the side and got 5 ribs in a bag for $10 which I didn't think was too bad although the ribs were a little dry. I had asked for duck sauce and they made sure to accommodate me by giving me 6 whole packets of duck sauce so I guess they either really care about accommodating their customers, or maybe they were being petty idk. Regardless, my go to Chinese spot closed down some months ago so this might have to be my new go to. Honestly, my favorite thing about this place is probably the prices, as the places closer to my house are more expensive.”
