Owner's description

People as far as the northern suburbs were venturing for the first time to Robertsham in the southern suburbs to find Johannesburg's best kept secret and get a taste of the best pizza in town. The waiting list on Friday and Saturday nights were sometimes an incredible five hours for large tables prepared to wait for a meal at Gino's!

The restaurant, which was intitially called "Paesa", which is how you would address someone from the same village as yourself, moved premises to the industrial area across the road, where a central kitchen was located upstairs from the restaurant. Gino's was now officially called "Gino's" thanks to the customers who could not pronounce "Paesa" and so used the name of the restaurant's bar instead.

Today Gino's has two family run restaurants. The original Gino's still remains in the heart of Robertsham and is run by Gino and his sister Carmela. Gino's two daughters help out on weekends and school holidays and many of the original staff members are still loyal employees at the restautant. Babbo and Antonia have retired and spend their time in their village, Monte San Giacomo, in the south of Italy and South Africa. The second restaurant is in Stellenbosch and was started on 12 August 1996 in Die Boord shopping centre by youngest son and brother Domenico. The restaurant has just recently relocated to the oldest street in Stellenbosch, Dorp Street, to the beautiful historical building of De Kelder.

    Very satisfied with the food ! I’ve been going to Gino’s since I was a small boy , enjoy it every single time ! Food is always amazing especially the calzone ! Service is good , although I do think it could be slightly better . Gino the owner is brilliant ! Always excited to see you walk in . Ambiance is the same as it was when I was small and that’s the way it should stay ! This is a brilliant classic family restaurant. Definitely worth the drive from anywhere in Gauteng . What makes me more happy is the fact that Zapper is available! Brilliant!
