Best spot for a pizza and beer in town. It’s always busy, good to have a reservation, but whenever we went, we didn’t have to wait more than 15-20 minutes for a table. The pizzas are delicious, lot of toppings, lot of options.
Gino's has been serving Italian meals for more than 40 years. The menu offers hearty food and caters for everyone's taste.Had Sunday lunch in the outside area. It was packed to capacity- surely a good sign. Service was a bit slow due to the high volume of customers. I had a pizza that had a generous topping of mushrooms,olives,ham,salami and artichokes. My guest had a generous helping of Ravioli - also very tasty.Gino's is a perfect family restaurant with a wide selection on their menu.
Wow what a gem of a place! It first it seems to be at first seems to be a student hangout only, which it is, but if you stay you will see that it is much more. Great food, great prices, and owner managed.The owner is a very friendly chap who is clearly not greedy. He told us to take a small portion as the large portions are really huge. Nice afternoon under the trees. Big screen TVs for sport.

Year round one of the best places in Stellenbosch. Excellent pizza with a vast amount of "build-your-own" toppings. Great drinks menu with a lot to chose from. G&T, Brandy, Wine or a redbull and vodka to get you stared
Had pizza for lunch. Was very good.Friendly service.
