You can’t go past Stefanos for good honest pizza - best genuine Italian pizza in Nelson. Alway fresh, quick service, great range of flavours and very reasonably priced.

Love Stefano's - Great pizza. Most authentic Italian Pizza I've had in a long time.

Without question the best pizza ever. Authentic, crisp Italian bases with a great range of toppings and specials to die for.

Best pizza in Nelson, without a doubt. Hot, tasty, nice thin bases and quick service. Tuesday nights can be chaotic (cheap night at the movies) so book a table or you might miss out. My fave is MOB - Mushroom, Onion and Bacon. Yum

Definitely the best Pizza in Nelson - a light thin soft crust, the toppings are simple (i.e not too many things on one pizza) but there is always plenty of it. Highly flavoursome and great for sharing, and very well priced. And especially good - order one for delivery to the Free House and enjoy it with a craft beer. Perfect.

I love going to the movies and right there is one of the best pizzerias in the world. The pizzas are simply primo, and as the sign outside says "Life is too short to eat bad pizza" Toe pizzas they come so fast, with a smile, and a smell second to none #cafetab

I just love the wood fired pizza ... mmmm yum SO good #darkhorse

If you want genuine Italian cooked by a genuine Italian, go to Stefano’s. Excellent thin crust pizzas, cooked in a pizza oven, great prices and very authentic prices. Pasta and salads are also on the menu as well as delicious NZ wines. Can’t fault this place even though it is usually busy, the service is pretty good and the atmosphere casual (its upstairs at the cinema).

Great pizzas, great atmosphere

Everybody’s favourite pizzeria – upstairs at the State Cinema, but you don’t have to go to the movies to enjoy a Stefano’s crispy pizza. You can get a basic small pizza for as little as $6 – gotta be the best value dinner in town – and there are plenty of options under $15. The pizzas have a beautiful thin base so the topping takes priority and they offer gluten free base options.
