Sample the delicious gourmet pizzas in this relaxed and quirky New York styled bar. At Filadelfio’s Restaurant & Bar, located at the start of North East Valley, you can also enjoy the excellent wines and ales on offer. Filadelfio’s aims to make anyone feel at home, from the quirky student population of down-south, to the warm family atmosphere.
In true Kiwi entrepreneurial style, the founder of Filadelfio’s set up the business in 1995 after enjoying this style of eatery on a trip to New York. Current owners Logan and Jo Beck have been enjoying the ever-growing business since 1998. (Franchises have been set up in Christchurch in 2002, Dunedin at the Terminus in May 2004, and Oamaru in July 2006.)
Always love going to this place. Great pizza, great wine and the desert pizzas are definitely worth leaving room for. Delicious. Some of the vegetarian options are even tastier than the meat ones! And I’m by no means a vegetarian.

We decided to go out with several students in exchange in Dunedin for the semester. Our criteria was quite simple: we were looking for the best pizza place in town!
We followed the fingers that pointed towards Filadelfio’s and landed in the heart of New York City. We ordered 4 large pizzas for 7 people, thinking about leaving some room for dessert. Big mistake, we weren’t even able to finish what was on the table, and we took the leftovers back home in doggy bags.
The food was amazing, and we played pool for an hour while enjoying a refreshing pint! A must do!

Good Pizza. Good service. Very welcoming atmosphere.
One of the best places to get pizza in Dunedin.

I have eaten at Filadelfio’s many times over quite a few years, most recently two weeks ago. Never once have I had a bad experience. The staff are always cheerful, friendly and efficient, despite often being run off their feet. The pizzas are superb and starter/side dishes such as wedges etc are always first class in quality and generous in quantity. Good food plus good service in pleasant, relaxed surroundings adds up to a dining experience that keeps us going back for more, often introducing out-of-town visitors who are invariably impressed. Vive la Filadelfio’s!

We got a takeaway Arizona last week.
It’s certainly not authentic pizza, but it’s pretty good. My only complaint is their base which I think is far too chewy. It has a French bread consistency and is pretty thick. We both got sore jaw muscles from chewing so much!

Defiantly won’t be returning here anytime soon absolutely appalling service took 45Min’s for 1 medium pizza and then they got the pizza wrong. Rude staff members and not a very nice atmosphere. Very very disappointing.

I went here last night with two of my friends to celebrate one of their 24th birthdays. We were allowed to enter, grab some menus and be seated. When we went up to place our orders, we were served apple cider (as requested) and then out of the blue, we got asked for our age IDs. Only one of us had a driver’s license…So we were quite happy to follow the rules and just eat pizza, not ask for any alcohol. However, the guy at the counter was not polite, and told us we had to leave the restaurant since we could not even prove we were over 18. (We are international students in the range of 22-24). After a bit of banter, we had to up and leave, which I thought was extremely rude and embarrassing. Not to mention, the staff member did not appear at all apologetic. Firstly, is it true you need to be over 18 to eat pizza? Secondly, why were we allowed to be seated in the first place? We shan’t be going to this restaurant ever again, and thanks to word of mouth I am sure several of our friend circles are not going there either.

I have been going to Filadelfios for years and have always enjoyed my time there. Superb pizza, excellent service and great ambiance. I tried the dessert pizza for the first time a short while ago – I highly recommend you leave room for it as it was delicious!
