Dino's Pizza — Restaurant in Burbank

2020.12-28: We screwed up and strayed away from Dino's because they were closed Christmas Eve and NEVER AGAIN!! WTH. We will never eat pizza from anywhere else ever again. Nothing compares to the quality of Dino's Pizza. The toppings, the dough, just fresh and delicous. We had to make it right and order from them again to redeem ourselves. Immediately, when we picked up the pizza, you can smell the quality of their ingredients. We will never stray away again.

2020.11-20/1800; Haven't been here in six years. The staff there is SUPER nice. Still great prices for the portions you receive. That hasn't changed so that helped. The guy taking the orders and money was really awesome, too. We felt bad for him because in the midst of this COVID BS, we witnessed him dealing with a lot of rude people on a Friday night. Extremely rude.

They still have great pizza so that's good. We decided to get a thicker crust with their signature Meat Lovers pizza made with pesto (subbing the pizza sauce). Their toppings are SO good! Quality is incredible. So fresh. We loved the pizza and the flavor of the dough!

Sadly, the egg in our Chef's salad was frozen. Weird. Other than that, the salad was good, too. They should give you more dressing but that's a personal preference. You get two 2 ounce souffle cups of dressing for your huge, delicious salad. The box was packed. I'm sure there was a whole head of romaine in that box along with a half pound of turkey and ham, it seemed! It was the freshness of the salad that I liked because I knew I should have gotten a Caesar Salad, too. I bet it would have been delicous judging by the Chef's Salad.

We were let down by the garlic knots but the flavor of their soft dough redeemed it. Not much garlic flavor at all. For some reason, we thought they would be doused in a fresh garlic butter sauce. They came out with super light dusting of garlic salt (there wasn't any type of hint of garlic flavor at all). They were more like bread knots-moreover, knotted breadsticks. I'm sure the flavor was in the Marinara sauce. I was told it had a little sweetness to the sauce. I can't comment because I'm allergic to tomatoes, sadly. All in all, in was great! Now we have delicous leftover pizza...

The service here is amazing. Seriously, the guy at the counter knows his stuff. I think his name is Ben. Amazing soda selection, and he said that he does the ordering, so he's been there a while.

The food, unfortunately, has never impressed me. I've only been here 3 times in the past 4 months, but that's enough for me. I've ordered three entirely different items each time, and without fail, each time it's been a disaster. This last time was the worst though.

I ordered the BBQ chicken pizza. Ben brought it over to my table at a decent time with a friendly demeanor. This simple pizza is a standard across pizzerias country wide, and usually consists of BBQ sauce as the base, then you add cheese, chicken pieces, red onions, and cilantro. But not COVERED in cilantro. You would have thought that I ordered a cilantro pizza. I began looking deeper into the toppings and could not actually identify ANY cheese because of the amount of cilantro. I now think that they were trying to conceal the lack of cheese. The dough was entirely too thin to hold up to the toppings, so the first slice I pulled ended up being nothing more than a piece of bread with sauce on it. Not BBQ sauce though. Tomato sauce. Why would you mix tomato sauce into a BBQ pizza? Weak move folks. The chicken tasted old, like it hadn't been properly covered in a fridge. It certainly wasn't cooked fresh that day.

I walked up to my house with the rest of my pizza in a box and gave it to a homeless man by my entry. I came back about 30 minutes later to check the mail and even HE had thrown the pizza away. You honestly couldn't...

Great casual Italian cuisine restaurant in Burbank. I had a pizza, it was delicious, fresh, tasty, generous and toppings are honest. Service is super friendly.

I dined by myself and had a small pizza (more than enough for 1 person) with 3 toppings: mushrooms, olives, anchovies. It was soooo delicious! Toppings, tomato sauce and the dough were all perfect. It was my 1st time there, I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and I will come back asap with friends & fam.

Conveniently near (a 5-min drive from) the BUR Bob Hope Burbank airport.

Generous: I could barely finish the SMALL pizza, it has 6 slices, and could easily be shared by 2 people.

Honest toppings: I paid $1.85 per topping. But I got more than that worth of each topping. My small pizza with 3 topping was just under $18, and worth every penny.

Dino's serve in non-disposable plates, great for the environment but still plastic knife & fork. I hope they can soon switch from plastic ware to reusable silverware.

I was also a little surprised to not find the classic Napoletana pizza on the menu. But heck! I created my own by ordering these 2 toppings: olives and anchovies (plus yeah I added mushrooms, my own extra!)

For 2 people I'd recommend to share a salad and a small pizza.

Service was super friendly. Setup: order at the counter, and they will bring your food to your table by calling your first name. My pizza was ready in about 10 minutes. Perfect. I saw them in the kitchen, toss pizza doughs in the air. It doesn't get any fresher than that.

Great job Dino's team! See...
