" Deninos is a crowd favorite for a reason! The food is absolutely delicious. The thin crust pizza is perfectly crispy and holds up well under all the toppings. I opted for the clam pizza, and I loved the flavor burst with every bite. The atmosphere was bustling but enjoyable, filled with laughter and conversations. Service was decent, but they could improve on attention. Overall, a fantastic experience that I will rave about to friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food was spectacular, to say the least. I ordered the spaghetti with marinara sauce and a cheese pizza. The pasta was perfectly cooked, and the sauce was flavorful; a clear sign of authenticity. The pizza was equally impressive with fresh mozzarella melting perfectly onto a crisp crust. The service was warm and friendly, but there were times where we felt ignored by staff during rush hour, which affected the overall experience. I am definitely coming back again to try more of the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our visit to Denino's was everything we had hoped it would be! The atmosphere felt very much like a traditional neighborhood pizzeria, bustling and full of life. The food was excellent; we ordered a couple of different pizzas to share and every slice was better than the last. I particularly enjoyed the M.O.R. pie, which was loaded with toppings but still maintained that perfect crispiness. The service staff was friendly and kept our glasses filled. My only complaint is that it was challenging to find parking, as the place tends to attract large crowds, especially on weekends. Still, I'd highly recommend it to anyone craving genuine Staten Island pizza! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mix of experiences while dining at Denino's. The ambiance was packed and energetic, just how a good pizzeria should be! The pizza was delivered to our table hot and fresh. I ordered a simple cheese pizza and it was very decent, but I was expecting something more flavorful based on the reviews. The service was fine, but it took a little longer than I had hoped to get drink refills. Overall, I might give it another shot though I was slightly disappointed. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Denino's for the first time last week after hearing all the buzz about their pizza. I have to say, I was not disappointed! I ordered the cheese pizza and a side of calamari. The pizza had that authentic New York taste, with a crispy base and just the right amount of cheese and sauce. The calamari was perfectly cooked, seasoned just right, and the marinara dip was a nice touch. The service was friendly, but I noticed it took a while for my drink refill, which is why I rated the service a little lower. Overall, a delightful meal and I would certainly recommend it.

" Denino's never fails to deliver amazing food and service! The last time I went, I tried the fried calamari and pizza with all the toppings. The calamari was tender and crispy, perfectly seasoned. The pizza was outstanding; the crust was crispy without being hard, and the sauce was flavorful. I appreciate how the staff are always friendly and attentive. I came with my family, and they were accommodating with our seating needs. They've definitely found a repeat customer in me! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last night at Denino's was phenomenal! The thin crust pizza I ordered was completely spot on, crispy yet chewy. I had the classic cheese with pepperoni, and it was just right. The flavor of the cheese was rich, and the sauce had the perfect tang to it. The service was swift, and the place had a comforting atmosphere that made me feel cozy. I will definitely make this a place I return to often! " (*Curated Review*)
