Hands down one the best Italian restaurants I have been to. Everything is top quality and homemade with love. You don't feel like you are eating at a restaurant, you feel like you have been invited to an Italian family dinner. The atmosphere and food is just divine!!! Will definitely be back next time I am on the island.

We are so glad we decided (majority vote between 6) to come here. From the start the service was amazing. They were busy, however still made us feel welcome and found a table quickly.
All the staff were amazing and the orders were taken quickly. The food came quicker than we expected. Another ✅.
Mix of entrees, pizzas and pasta. Not one problem at all. We enjoyed it all.
So if your on the island, please visit this lovely local place.

Staff absolutely lovely 💜 friendly and professional. I've been many times and really enjoyed it and was value for money in the past, but tonight our food was absolutely terrible really disappointing. Kids rigatoni was the size of your palm and not boiled enough. Kids ate it because they were hungry but at $26 for two serves it was not even ten bits of pasta each. Hawaiian pizza looked so bad, dry and burnt we didn't touch it and got it takeaway because kids didn't want to eat it (at all) and Hawaiian pizza is their favourite. Parma had lemon squeezed all over it under the cheese. The salad was

Typical summer pizzeria, well air-conditioned, bright inside, excellent background music. The tables and bathrooms were clean and fragrant.
Very interesting is the idea of contextualizing the restaurant, with the international motorcycle circuit, where it is possible to admire the suits and helmets with the dedications of the great champions on them.
As for the pizza, unfortunately, I must note that it is not up to the standard, in fact the dough was not very leavened and also the capricciosa with that ham sticks was neither good nor beautiful to look at, I suggest you review the recipe

This is an Italian restaurant situated within the main commercial area of the Cowes town on the Phillip island. The service and the infrastructure is good and both indoor and outdoor dining facilities are available. The staff is friendly and helpful. Based on an experience of pizza only, the taste is authentic and nice. However, prices seem to be tourist-oriented probably due to the island being a popular tourist destination.

My sister lives in the island and Pino’s is a regular spot they go to. I tried it for the first time last night and I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to go!
Received a high level of service from staff, the calamari was fresh & light, the pizza base was perfect thickness with balanced about it topping, panna cotta melted in your mouth & the macchiato was spot on!
Last night took me back to Italy!
Can’t recommend it highly enough & will definitely be back again to try more from their delicious menu.

We just decided to walk in on a Thursday weeknight and it was full house! We were lucky to be seated without a reservation fairly quickly. Food was served in decent time and the waiter who served us was very courteous and nice guy. Price is reasonable. Nice ambience. Enjoyed our meal. Pizza was really good. Loved the dough. Tasty vongole pasta. Would have loved if there were more clams in it. There were more empty clam shells then the actual clams meat. Great dessert! Tiramisu and panna cotta👍 Our kids loved the ice cream. We ordered warm water and was served in a stainless steel tea pot and
