The normal pizza looked great, so I'll give them that. But the gluten free pizza was tiny, the crust was overcooked, the rest of the pizza was undercooked, and the toppings were pitiful. Worst $20 I've ever spent for 4 small slices of GF pizza. I wish I had ordered one of the salads instead.

Was absolutely surprised by this pizza place. Didn't expect a lot when I first saw it, but the pizza we got was fresh and delicious. Solid option after a long day on the beach.

Underwhelming. Tonight they were out of all salads and the burratta appetizer, exactly what I had planned on ordering. The restaurant smells moldy and old, no hint of food smell at all. We had the meatball appetizer and flatbread appetizer, under seasoned and bland. Our pizzas were cooked well but also bland. Overall nothing went wrong we were just unimpressed, nothing was bad just not good either.

We used Dylan’s to cater our wedding, they did appetizers for cocktail hour, a special menu for dinner and bartending services. I can’t say enough good things about them. They showed up early that morning to get a layout and set some things up, and even brought some decor for their table that matched our wedding decor. The food and drinks were incredible. We hired them for a buffet style dinner, and they were attentive while still having people walk around asking if we needed anymore food or drinks. The bartenders were amazing, so sweet, lots of fun, the whole wedding party couldn’t stop talking about how great the bartenders were. We went heavy on good food (steak and salmon) and an open bar, so the price tag reflected that, but I would pay that and then some for the service we got. 100/10 recommend. All I cared about on my wedding day was good food and drinks, and they did just that and then some. They made the day perfect ⭐️
This is a Zero Star review based on being lied to multiple times as to why our single 12” pizza took 90 minutes to bring to our table. We arrived on a Thursday around 5:15PM. The place was not very crowded yet as they opened up the 2nd dining room for us. We were the only ones in this area for about 5 minutes. Other groups began to come in. Our waitress was attentive from the beginning. We ordered an appetizer that took about 15 minutes to bring. We ordered our one 12” pizza at the same time we placed the appetizer order. Our waitress continued to be attentive by asking to refill drinks and asking if we needed anything else. We began to get suspicious after almost 30 minutes when another group got a pizza that arrived well after us. Then our waitress told us it was going to take longer because there were a lot of other orders that were submitted right before ours. That didn’t make much sense unless they were online orders. We began to get irritated when table after table was receiving their pizza that arrived after we did. We asked our waitress why all those other tables were receiving their pizza and she said the oven wasn’t hot enough. We knew this was a lie. She then told us there was a hole in the dough and they had to remake it. Another lie. Then the manager came over and said she was sorry and our pizza was free. Our waitress came by again and told us another lie that there was a mixup. We knew then that our pizza order just wasn’t submitted when we ordered our appetizer. Our waitress finally brought the pizza rack and said “yours is up next”. That was 20 minutes before we waved to her to just bring our check as we were done. This was now 90 minutes without receiving our pizza. Other large groups came and left long before. We paid for our drinks and appetizer and as we were getting up to leave she brought the pizza in a to-go box and apologized. The manager paid no attention to us as we left. Absolutely terrible experience with all the lies. The pizza was good when we finally got home after starving at the restaurant. Never again at this place.

Amazing!!! Just don't get caught outside after sunset. Those mosquitos are no joke. The food, service, and atmosphere were so very enjoyable. I loved this place. We will be back... before sunset.

The service was so bad, it completely ruined the evening and any positives with the food and atmosphere. As a former service worker, I'm pretty forgiving when it comes to service. I get everyone has bad or off days and I get that mistakes happen. Those types of things really don't warrant a poor review, particularly if the establishment owns up to it and tries to make it right. That said, what I absolutely cannot stand is being lied to, which is what happened here.
We were the first table sat in a backroom area that looked like it's used for overflow or larger parties. We ordered drinks, then an appetizer and our pizza. All items were ordered before any other tables were sat in the area. We got our drinks and our appetizer just fine. The server made sure our drinks remained full and the appetizer (wings) was delivered in a timely fashion and was tasty. During this time, another 5 tables were sat in the same area we were in and ordered. A considerable amount of time had passed (45 minutes) and we still hadn't gotten our pizza, but at least 2 of the other tables had. We asked our server if she could check on it. She came back and told us that the kitchen had gotten behind because a lot of tables came in at the same time, but that ours should be out soon. Several minutes pass and nothing, so we ask again. This time the manager comes out and gives a different excuse (actually multiple): one of the ovens wasn't hot enough and there was a hole in our pizza so they were remaking it because they wanted to ensure quality. By this time, 2 other tables had received their pizza. She assured us it was in the oven "right now" and will be out soon. By now, we're sitting at an hour since we ordered and we've now had 3 excuse why our pizza wasn't out, even though everyone else was getting theirs. Another 15 minutes goes by and nothing, other than the last table in our area getting their pizza and we still don't have ours. The server came out and apologized and gave yet another story (mix up with the tickets) as to why it still hadn't been brought to the table, but that it was the next one out. Not long after she said that, I saw a table that had been sat LONG after us in the main dining area get their pizza. At this point, we decided we were done and told the server we wanted our check and to forget the pizza. Then and only then was our pizza brought to us in a box with our check. To their credit, they had comped the pizza, but after an hour and half of waiting and being lied to multiple times, they should have comped the entire bill, but they probably know we'll never be back, so didn't see a reason to do so.
To be clear, if they had just owned the mistake and been truthful and actually fixed the problem quickly, we probably would have left there happy and been fine with paying the entire bill, even with it taking longer than usual. I am absolutely positive the server simply forgot to ring up the pizza and only did so when we asked what was going on. At that point, she should have owned that and the manager should have told the kitchen to make it a priority instead of putting it at the back of the line once it was entered.
We took the boxed up pizza back to the condo and ate it. It was okay, but certainly not worth all of that.

I ordered a build your own pizza, my wife had the Bianca with pepperoni. My pizza came out about 5 minutes sooner than my wife's. I waited to eat until her pizza came out. By the time hers arrived, mine was warm at the best. Can't cook two pizzas from the same order at the same time? Other than that, the pizza was delicious.

Perfect location, excellent taste, handmade pizza with Italian ingredients. Great variety of dishes and good size. Perfect as a plan after the beach and the atmosphere is perfect for family time.

Perfect post-beach dinner for your pizza fix! The salads are huge, the wings were crispy and had great flavor, and the thin crust pizza hit the spot after a day in the sun. We built our own pizza and were really pleased with the meal. Bonus was the walkability to Dylan’s while staying in Cinnamon Shores!
