“ They Makea Gooda Piizza - Authentic Italian Person Who Knows What Pizza is Good ”
“ It's a takeaway pizza shop, much like domino's. There are tables out the front, we decided to stop and eat our pizza there. We got spicy meat ball, couldn't see the meat balls, but the overall flavour was great. Definitely would buy it again, Definitely will be back to try different pizzas. ”
“ Ostend Pizzeria isn’t just a place to grab a pizza—it’s a quiet savior in the dark hours of culinary desperation. On a night when Waiheke Island had seemingly packed up and gone to bed, leaving me stranded in a foodless limbo, they stayed open. Not just open, but welcoming, like a lighthouse guiding a weary sailor to shore. The pizza? A masterpiece. The base had that perfect balance of crispness and chew, a reminder that simplicity executed well is its own kind of luxury. The toppings were thoughtful, abundant without excess—each bite a symphony of flavor rather than a chaotic jam session. This wasn’t fast food; this was care in every slice. But what truly set them apart was their quiet heroism. They could have closed. They could have gone home, leaving me to forage for scraps like some tragic protagonist in a Victorian novel. But they didn’t. They stayed. And they delivered—on all counts. Ostend Pizzeria doesn’t just make pizza; they make moments. And on a night when all seemed lost, they reminded me that a good meal isn’t just about sustenance—it’s about connection, care, and maybe just a touch of magic. ”
“ Got this vegan pizza with alternative Chicken and Bacon and was very surprised by the amount of toppings. Was delicious, perfectly cooked, and the sauce was great. Nice guy behind the counter too. If this place was in AKL it would be my new go-to. Well done, thank you. ”
“ I always come to visit for some relatively cheap, yummy pizzas with my mates! Quick, easy to order, and lots of variety. They do takeaway which is great if you wanna take it and eat in a park, compared to having to wait in a restaurant and eating there. I took mine to the skatepark today! ”
