Follow the tantalising aroma of Italian fare to Pizza Minded on Union Road in Ascot Vale, for pizza and pasta just like Nonna makes. Relax indoors among black suspended bulbs, blond wood and a colourful wall mural depicting the food regions of Italy, or perhaps perch on a stool at the front window and watch the world saunter by.

Those seeking a leisurely weekend brunch may opt for dishes such as scrambled eggs, avocado and maple glazed streaky bacon. Pick up a slice of tartufo pizza, topped with mushroom, spinach and goats cheese, and a balsamic reduction; or the Pizza Minded Special with ham, mushrooms, red onion, capsicum and pineapple, paired with a glass of Italian red.

I don’t know if the place has changed hands.. but man o man was the pizza disgusting. I could have had better pizzas from Pizza Hut or dominos. I always support local businesses their pizzas were just sad.. this place has really disappointed me and I would either look for a good local pizza shop or settle for the mediocrity of Pizza Hut and dominos.

Delicious pizza, great service! Would thoroughly recommend.
Initially the pizza, ordered through Menulog, was delivered to the wrong address. Contacted the restaurant through Menulog and they speedily rectified the issue and were very helpful.
Thank you very much, Pizza Minded. We'll be back!

Good vego/vegan options but be warned that they charge extra for swaps which I think is a pretty bad/unfriendly service. If you're taking something away for something equivalent it shouldn't be extra.

The absolute best!
The pasta, so fresh and delectable - it takes all of my willpower not to gobble it all up in a single bite!
I adore the gnocchi carbonara- that sauce should be bottled! I could honestly drink it!!!
The garlic cheese pizza - our house smells like garlic the next day - it makes me want more!!!
Love love love ❤️

Since the time I have moved in Ascot Vale, I have bought pizza from this place. The pizza sizes are huge (4 options to choose from) and the prices are not too high as compared to other places. My go to food here is their pizza, wedges & foccacia. The pizza has been consistently good. They have their specials on Tuesday & Thursday. So go checkout this place.

I’ve been buying from here for a while because there is no place better in my opinion. Usually order however went into store and was greeted with a nice store and an even nicer worker. The pizza they produce has great crust and massive variety of toppings and options. 5/5 will definitely be coming back more

Just had two large pizzas delivered to my cafe as we do some maintenance. Ordered the Bbq Chicken & Pizza Minded Special, both were top notch! well balanced and really delicious they lasted about 10 minutes, highly highly recommended and will definitely be ordering again! Thanks for the great meal and keep up the great work.

Take-Away (Half/Half) Pizza was Great, My "Chorizo" pizza was amazing, just added some baked potatoes and it was the perfect balance ... the mushrooms half was just perfect without any additions.
Love it, and will be back soon for sure.

Small shop in Ascot Vale that serves really tasty food. Service staffs were really friendly as well. There might be abit of wait for your order but it's worth waiting as its seems their food is freshly made upon order.
