The best lemon aid hands down! They are dog friendly and even have a menu for them, love that they include the dogs.

The food has generous portions but the pizza lacks flavour the beef topping was dry.
Over all really pet friendly and good service.

Great food and fantastic service! Our puppy enjoyed his Puppaccino and his Frozen Hoof as well! The staff made an extra effort with our pup which is always comforting! I highly recommend this restaurant!!

Really good pizza! Very tasty, the sauce is prime and good quality cheese.
Unfortunately there wasn't tables available for us (my two boys and I) then we had to take it for the road. Next time I'm making a reservation and bringing the whole family with.

Loved that this restaurant is dog friendly which adds to the warm friendly ambiance.

The menu is also great, catering for vegetarians and vegans with multiple options.

For starters we ordered the mozzarella balls and melanzane, both were quite tasty and very cheesy. Would have liked a bit more flavor in both the dishes though.

For the mains both pizza’s we ordered was really good. Love the sauce to base to cheese ratio. Bases are nice and crispy - not too thin/thick either. Very generous with their toppings and special mention of the vegetarian pizza which is a must try! (Veggies are sautéed really nicely before adding to the pizza)

The spinach and ricotta lasagne was delicious but a bit disappointing as the portion size was extremely small for the price. The lasagne only has one layer (defeats the point of it being called a lasagne). It was also overwhelmingly cheesy - which was nice but once again not really what i expected from the dish.

For desert we had the tiramisu, which was tasty as well but also disappointing as the cake component had a few ice crystals (probably for benign stored in a fridge too cold). It made the dish less enjoyable.

Tip: chili and garlic are an on cost but really worth it because they’re both so potent.

Overall verdict: Definitely coming back for the pizza, will probably give the starters and dessert a miss.

Pizza is tasty and they're generous with their toppings. The vibe is ok, nothing special really. Its cool that we could bring our dog but then not much room in the outside seating area for him to actually walk around.

Are you kidding me!!! How is it I've never been to Massimo's until today. What excellent service, ambiance is warm and inviting, and the food, mama mia!! Pizza and fish of the day was delish, we will certainly be back

I really liked Massimo's. The pizza base was perfect and the flavours fresh. The service was good and atmosphere felt relaxed.
We ordered desserts (tiramisu and creme brulee) but neither were really up to the standard I would expect so will probably skip dessert next time. The tiramisu was icy in the middle and the creme brulee was very runny and the top too thick.
I will visit again though and will try the pasta dishes. I'll definitely have their pizza again.
