Gino's Pizza & Wing Machine — Restaurant in Mississauga

When you walk in to a franchise you just expect the get the same you get everywhere . Let me tell you about this place . I was heading up north after a nice time by the lake , and kids called asking for pizza . This place popped up on google maps , so I stopped. As I entered and the conversation started I realized that the owner is not like any other owner I met . The respect, honesty, politeness was absolutely amazing . This is a man of values and customer service . The. Came the part to get the food , so as I said I expected to get what I get any where else as a Gino’s , but when I arrived home and we took the first piece of, I discovered that this is fresh , extremely well prepared like a proper professional original Italian pizza , and when I say that if you know what I’m talking about , you will know that Italians don’t mess up when it comes to pizza , so all respect you you sir , and wish you all success at your Gino’s pizza Royal Windsor Drive . Keep it up .

I’m sorry I didn’t take a pic of the pizzas but that because it was all gone before I was able to grab the pic , but will be back to enjoy the pizza...

I am hoping to try a different Gino's...
