The fourth area Gionino’s Pizzeria will open Monday, August 4th in Patterson Park. Franchise owner Tony Clark brought the Ohio based chain to Dayton in 2019 at 1528 E. Third St., next to his video arcade, DK Effect. In 2021, he added Kettering and Bellbrook locations. He’s been working on this Wilmington Ave location for a while, but delays from Kettering’s planning office on approvals took longer than expected.
Known for its scratch-made dough, signature sweet tomato sauce, and real aged provolone cheese they also offer a wide menu beyond pizza, including the standout Italiano Fried Chicken, Jo-Jo potato wedges, subs, salads, pasta, and Gionino Bread—garlic butter with melted cheeses and red sauce.
Two of their most popular pizzas are:
-
Gionino’s Best Pizza: Loaded with pepperoni, sausage, ground beef, mushrooms, onions, green peppers, bacon, black olives, and banana peppers
-
Caprese Pizza: Thin crust topped with fresh mozzarella, provolone, spinach, basil, tomatoes, and Parmesan, finished with their signature sauce
- 3 All-White Meat Fried Chicken Tenders
- 4 JoJo’s
- 4 oz. Coleslaw
- Dipping Sauce of Your Choice
