Great hospitality and fantastic food! You can't go wrong with any pizza they have. Fresh, tasty and packed with flavour. Rather skip your usual fast food pizza place and visit Panteli's. I've yet to try any other dishes on the menu, but I'm only expecting that there will be other reasons for me to love this restaurant. Well done guys and gals!
This is about the 7th time my wife and I have eaten here. There food us absolutely outstanding, always fresh, and the staff are pleasant, friendly and very efficient. Definitely the best Italian restaurant ive been to in years. My new favorite spot
What an absolute treat coming here! Celebrated my 12 year old nephews birthday party - table of 10 and not a thing was amiss! The superb staff behind the scenes loved handing my 2 year old niece some dough to play with and were just so so so awesome! Owner is always around, checking on things and the fact that the staff are local teenagers is just amazing. Never mind the food that was just divine! Highly recommended!
What a wonderful evening. Thank you so much to your wonderful staff for a great meal and awesome atmosphere they created. We had a large number of people and your staff were so helpful.
This place is the bomb!!! Friendly, cosy, professional, super awesome food, and fabulous atmosphere! I love this place!
Over promise by the waitress, that I will be enjoying a pizza beyond my wildest expectations.
WOW, did they deliver! One of the best pizza's I've eaten in a very long time. Totally impressed and will be back for more.
Had a glass of wine while waiting for my take away. Very impressed with the service and staff. Food is great.I’ll be back�
Best pizza in town by far with a great ambiance in summer or winter. We’ve never been disappointed with the quality of their food. Waiters and managers are friendly and professional. We’ve been back again and again and will continue to eat there regularly in future.

Absolutely amazing restaurant. The food is fresh and prepared just for you. The hospitality and service is first class and the restaurant has such a lovely, family vibe. I would really recommend it to anyone.
This must be the most fantastic pizza restaurant I've ever been to in my life and the staff are world class!
The best service I have receive in a long time. Manager came to apologize for the food taking long. Offered us complimentary drinks/dessert and entertainment app vouches.
Always a good evening at Pantelis! Whether with friends, family or just your better half. Staff are all so accommodating and the food to die for. You won't be sorry !
Love this place food is awesome owner is the best
Absolutely awesome restaurant. I've been here many times and not once was I ever dissapointed. Great fresh food, relaxed environment, friendly staff and an absolutely awesome owner Panteli. All restaurant owners need to come and learn from him. Always welcoming and friendly and willing to go the extra mile. He engages with his customers and nothing is too difficult for this owner when it comes to customer satisfaction. Absolutely welcoming with that friendly smile to meet each and every one of his customers. My absolute favorite restaurant. You cannot go wrong. We absolutely love it.
A great family restaurant with great food and reasonably priced. Friendly staff and owner.Keep up the great food and service PC
Best pizzas, awesome food, very nice sangria, excellent service and super friendly staff and owner.
Our favorite “go to” for all our Italian needs. Their delivered food is neatly packaged and always warm.
Well taken care of by the waiter & the pasta & pizzas were very good. We were a table of 7 and the restaurant was quiet enough to have a conversation between everyone. Quality ingredients used and I'm a sucker for a pizza prepared in a wood fire oven. No Debonair style sauces to be found here. They just let the ingredients do the talking
Highly recommended! Very good service. Please keep it up guys. The food was amazing. This is what other establishments should strive to be like. Nachos, pizza and pasta were all good. Great atmosphere. Prices were decent and all around it was a great experience.
Delicious food! Good service:) First time eating here and definitely wont be the last! Love the little children's area where they can make their own pizza!
This is by far my favorite Italian place the food is always good. Pizza are a beautiful thin base prices are very good. No corkage which makes me love it even more. Waiters are friendly... Will always come back
Such a lovely place. Lots of families but also good if you're on a date and pick the corner spot. Food was amazing. We had the Steak Romgna and the Berena. Both were fantastic and difficult to choose from such a selection of amazing looking pasta dishes. It came with a table side of garlic, Chilli and parmasan but nothing needed to be added (a first for me).
What was also really great was that the waitress. Very attentive and sweet but not overbearingly so. She also was clued up with the Entertainer app and didn't have to go around asking.. Another first for me. So great service. We even spoke to some of the other waiters as they clocked off and were outside. Such a friendly bunch of people.
The only thing separating 4 stars from 5 for me is the wine list. With such an amazing list of food, I felt that the wine list could have done with a bit more options.
All in a all, a perfect evening.
Came for dinner for two, service and food were amazing. The snails with Blue Cheese is affordable and a must try! Overall great and will be back!
I am so impressed with the quaint eatery, the food was delicious and the service was great ! What value for money ! Ample options for vegetarians and swapping and additions to current menu items were allowed without a fuzz !

A random trip to this lovely italian restaurant based in Boskruin.
On arrival the managers were friendly and even though the restaurant resembled to be VERY busy which it was - we were seated immediately.
The food was wholesome and hearty just the way I like it! Especially on a rainy-cold evening.
A must try. Reasonably priced. Lovely atmosphere.
The food is absolutely delicious whether your order a pasta or pizza or even a toasted sandwich. I have just had a burger it was one of the best burgers I have eaten no possibly the best. The staff are kind and extremely attentive and go to any lengths to make your meal enjoyable.

This is one of the best Restaurants we have ever been to. Waiters and all the staff are really friendly and helpful. Great job to all and the best service ever. I highly recommend this wonderful restaurant.
Panteli's buzzes! It's busy but the service is excellent. They have a small army of friendly, attentive, young waiters. The food is good and the portions are generous. I brought home at least half of my arrabiata pasta. The chilli and tomato base was quite spicy so be warned. The food is good value for money. It's not the ideal spot for a romantic date but it's a great spot to grab a bite with friends
Really good pizza and service. Thank you Jordan for being our host this afternoon. It was lovely watching the 2018 World Cup Final at Pantelis. Family vibe, very cozy and relaxed environment.
Love this little spot by far my favorite pizzas. It has a warm cozy environment. The staff are awesome and so eager to please and are more than willing to help you costomize your favorite pizza to suit you tast. The truth be told I don't thing there pizza menu needs and customization there is a pizza to suit everyone pallet.
Excellent hidden gem. We come here often and they never disappoint. Their service is outstanding
Food is excellent. Banting pizzas outstanding. Friendly atmosphere
I have been here on numrous occassions for numerous reasons and have been met with the same consistency as described below...
Such wonderful service and food from this fantastic Italian restaurant. The staff are always smiling, the place is always clean and the decor still superb.
I will definitely be reccomending, posting as well as returning to your establishment.
I have to say that I've been to this shopping center about 1000 times and never have been to this restaurant, well do I regret that. I went there last night and it was packed! However the staff were very welcoming and accommodated us the best way they could, they placed us on the waiting list and sat us by the bar, we were continually checked up on by multiple people and didn't take too long before being seated. Their sangria is DANGEROUSLY good!beware to drink it slowly! The food was delicious and didn't take long to make, I had their chicken halloumi salad which was fresh and beautifully presented and my brother had a pizza which he thoroughly enjoyed, I have to say the service was impeccable! I would highly suggest going! Their prices are good for what you get. Will be coming back for sure! Thank you pantelis ands HUGE thanks to all the staff working there, you made our time there well spent.
The reviews was spot on, best pizza I have had. The staff and our waiter was very friendly. One can taste that every ingredient used is fresh
The service was excellent; efficient & attentive. The food was absolutely delicious and certainly good value for money 🤤🤤 we were stuffed. I love that they don’t play music so we can hear ourselves speak without competing with the nearest table.
Unreal......if the smell doesn't lure you in, the reviews from others who have been will.
Not a big pasta fan but these dishes are unbelievable and have amazing flavours. I've had 3 different dishes and can't decide which is best. Friendly service, portions are tasty and big....well worth trying if you want Italian. My new favourite Italian restaurant
I have been going to Pantelli’s for a couple months now. It has become my family’s Sunday ritual. I’ve tried a lot of their pizzas and pastas and I have never been disappointed. I had their Alfredo yesterday and it was the best one I have tasted. Creamy and flavoursome. Their pizzas are some of the best. Good value for money Restuarant.
Food is amazing and is value for money. Staff are quick, friendly and helpful. Would definitely go back again. They definitely know how to keep customers happy and go out there way to do so
All I can say is wow ! I'm so glad we found this hidden gem . Firstly the service was IMPECCABLE ! Our waitress Jade was amazing, we had two very messy toddlers and she just breezed through it like an absolute champion! 5 star service is an understatement. The food is really something to brag about! If ever you feel like Italian I highly recommend this place. Absolutely delicious and the pasta was perfectly cooked (which I never compromise on) and not to mention the enormous portion sizes. I will definitely be back. If you haven't been here you're missing out!
Friday nights are busy, you need to book, pizza's are the best, the manager, Dylan, is so attentive and willing to please. The staff are always friendly and polite, one of our best for sit down and take away.
Great experience at
Pantelis this afternoon with the family
Huge thanks to Warrick and Dylan who treat their customers like family
These guys made the difference
Absolutely great service
Well done guys
And the food was the cherry on the top
Awesome 3hrs spent at Pantelis
Will be back very soon
Amazing food, Great service, friendly staff!
Best alfredo pasta ever and focaccia is to die for!
We are always blown away by the warm welcome, great atmosphere and the way our children are welcomed too! Family favourite, for sure!
This is a great little hidden gem. The power went out at around 6pm last night and we needed a spot to eat. We waited for about 10 minutes to be seated because the restaurant was full at the time. The restaurant was packed with hungry families and the take away boxes were stacked and ready for collection. We both opted for pizza. Great flavours and generous toppings on a thin crispy base. The menu is not too big to be confusing but had more than enough options for everyone. It was clear that more than half of the guests were regular customers and we will certainly be regulars too! I will definitely be back to try more pizza options, pasta and the great looking burgers that passed our table.
I really enjoy this little joint. The atmosphere is cozy with the big pizza oven as main centre piece. We were there a bit early for sunday lunch so it was a bit quiet but did not detract from the experience. They have a nice selection of pizza options and some nice craft beer. We opted for the Margaretha and Mafia hit pizzas with selected extra topings, we were not disappointed. The base is strong enough to hold the generous amount of toppings, with just the right amount of chew and char. As mentioned they are not shy with their toppings and enough cheese to satisfy anyone, and for the price i must say it is really impressive. Well done guys, keep up the good work
Food and service is always devine and fresh! I love going there for mouth watering pastas and scrumptious pizzas!! And the staff and managers are always friendly.
Best service, great pizza, what more can you ask for? The Pulled pork and cranberry pizza is a must try and our server might have been in training but it certainly didn’t come across that way. If we weren’t told, we wouldn’t have know.
Fantastic atmosphere. Well prepared, fresh, tasty food.
Great friendly service. Rootentootively amazing 👌. Real Italian food. Unique and delicious.
What an amazing place. Had the Americano pizza. Great taste. Great service. Super impressed. Food arrived quickly. Our waiter was friendly. Luckily the place is right around the corner from me. Definitely going back.
I really love this place, so warm and friendly you can tell there is a real love for food in this restaurant. Wonderful for a relaxed family dinner. Service is always really great 😄
Some of the best pizza that I have had in a very long time! We will definitely be back. I can strongly recommend them for Italian food - very good, friendly service on top of it all!
I just love going to Panteli's Italian Kitchen. Their food is of good quality and is always tasty. The one thing that trumps good foor for me is service. Most of the time their service is excellent. I like the fact that the owner is almost always around and greets each costumer personally. In winter it is great to go because it is nice and toasty inside and is summer you can catch a cool breeze outside. My recommendation on this menu is the Firenze pasta!
The pizza is amazing and reasonably priced. Exactly what I've been looking for.
Delivery in less than 45 minutes, it just gets better and better.
Always good and friendly service too. 👍🏻
We have been many times and will keep going back. The food is great and the service is always fantastic. The owner always makes you feel welcome.
This restaurant has the best staff who always greet you and make sure you are having a good meal. The food is the best Italian food in Randburg it is my naughty treat every weekend
![Zomato]( "Recensione")
Panteli's is definitely a hidden gem. It has a cosy and relaxed ambience, with simple New-York-style Italian dècor.
The menu offers an array of options so there is bound to be something for everyone. We have had the Buon Giorno pizza, the Mafia Hit pizza, the Ye Ol' Style Regular burger, the Bolognaise, and the Lasagne La Nonna. The pizza base was tasty and cooked perfectly with a light crisp to it. The spaghetti Bolognaise was flavourful and the pasta was cooked well, just past al dente. The burger was surprisingly flavourful considering its an Italian restaurant so one would assume they excel mainly in the pizzas and pastas. The burger patty was moist and packed with flavour, and the chips were crisp and well-seasoned. The lasagne is a personal favourite. The thickness of the individual layers of pasta, sauce, and meat, complement each other well. The white sauce is both creamy and tasty.
The service here is excellent from both the waitering staff and management, and the pricing is more than reasonable for the quality of your meal. It has always been a pleasant dining experience at Panteli's!
Last night we decided to give this place a try. We booked a table for 7pm - thank goodness we did. The place was packed and smelled amazing (of food obviously). The restaurant is beautifully decorated and the staff are so friendly. The service we received was amazing! The manager, who sounded like he had lost his voice (I hope he feels better), sent over a garlic and mozzarella focaccia for us to enjoy while browsing their menu. It was divine, by the way, the thing crispy base and wonderful amounts of complimenting garlic and cheese!
It was difficult to decide what to order but I ultimately went for the chicken alfredo with fettuccine while the rest of the table ordered pizzas. The food arrived relatively quickly despite the restaurant being so busy. The portion sizes were much bigger than I anticipated and everything looked so good - it tasted just as good too! Perfectly cooked and great flavor (tasted good reheated for lunch too 😁). Their milkshakes are also so yummy!
I was very pleasantly surprised by this little hidden gem. I've never heard of it before, but a friend invited us out.
From the start, the service was good - even though they were pretty busy. I had trouble choosing between pizza and pasta, but ultimately went with the buon giorno pizza. It was the BEST decision. I also loved the crispy, yet fluffy pizza base.
I also tried some of the strawberry milkshake, which was pretty good as well.
As we left, the manager stopped us to ask if we enjoyed our experience. I always appreciate small gestures like these, because that's what usually makes me come back often.
Love this restaurant! Friendly atmosphere and staff, lovely fresh food and have not once had any problems with having to wait too long or getting an incorrect order, not even when getting a delivery. My
Families favourite place to eat!

The BEST ITALIAN FOOD in the North! Warm and friendly atmosphere! Service is always FIRST CLASS! Great value for money! Food is always great with every visit! Clean and tidy. Will always come back to my favourite pizza and bolognaise
Lovely atmosphere and place! We found this place through the Entertainer app. They were super fast and we had our food right after we've ordered it. The burger, the pasta and the Kiddie's ribs were all
GOOD! We will be back! Good family food!
The pizzas are always excellent, well prepared, and served hot! I enjoy the Scusi in particular. The staff are extremely friendly and always willing to go the extra mile.
Booked marked this place for a while and alI i can say is WOW.....WOW WOW the service awesome, the pizza really good, nice thin base and not soggy in the middle ... (I realize others so pizza but to have a good one like this....WOW)
The staff are all youngsters so first impressions was hmmm maybe a long night they won't know what they doing( They showed me)
Only heard good things and all the good Things lived Up to what i expected
Quick update: returned after a few months and nothing has changed the pizza still outstanding and the service really good
Will 100% go back
Thanks team Pantelis
Great service and great food. Manager is always around and with a smile. Our new favorite place to eat in Boskruin / Randpark area.
Good pizza and great salads.
Best Burgers in town and the service is exceptional. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who's looking for a real Italian place with food that will make you come back for more.
Probably the 10th time we got pizzas from Pantellis, and will be back again. Service is excellent and the pizzas are amazing. Can recommend to anyone.
Pantelli's is down the road from our home- we could take a walk there if we were feeling really energetic.
I loved this place. A few new restaurant flaws to be ironed out such as the waiters not being fully aware of the drinks on offer- but not a big issue.
We ordered two different pizzas that were great- they tasted so fresh and wholesome. The vibe was also great with all the staff there in high spirits. We will definitely be taking advantage of the Free Delivery service. Its so nice to have a new and fresh local pizza restaurant set apart from all the big generic chains.
Just absolutely excellent meals as always! Today I tried the Fit Bit, which is three succulent chicken breasts and a salad. Wow! I actually have never tasted chicken that good and so dam delicious. My little one always has the Spaghetti Bolognaise and it never disappoints ! Awesome restaurant
Best pizza ever. Ever. Just went in for a quick bite and ordered the mafia hit. I can't think of a better tasting pizza. Glad we went there will visit again
We had a power outage recently and decided it was a great excuse to try some pizza.
Was I impressed! It's been a long time since I've had such tasty pizza. It the perfect base (thin and crispy), delicious fresh toppings and baked to perfection.
We will be ordering here again!
Best place to go to in Randburg for pizza and pasta, the owner is always watching the staff and is always smiling.. I love the hospitality of this place Greek's know their business
I'll amend this review with a full one soon. For now you can trust me when I say that this place is amazing. The guys there are top-notch on customer service, the food is consistently fantastic (pizza, wings, burgers...everything) and the prices are really affordable.
Please support these guys. We cannot afford to let such an awesome place fade away in our area! Try them out, you will not regret it!

Service is a big thing for me and I was really impressed with the service here. I've seen the different restaurants come and go at this location and Panteli's is by far The Best to be here and I'm sure will stay for a long time.
As we entered and shown to our table, a young fella asked us for our drinks order straight away. We found it strange that he didn't know much about the wines on offer - only white, red and that it was from the bottle. As soon as he went to get our drinks the owner approached us and informed us that the waiter is a trainee and if he could offer us a complimentary foccacia for our patience. Of course we agreed and it was really good. We really appreciated that the owner took time to come to us and explain the situation, that way we were also happen to give advice where needed, instead of being annoyed.
The food is also superb. The wings are full 2 piece wings, not those wing sections one gets normally. We ordered some wings and ribs, which compliment each other and are absolutely delicious! We also had a pizza, one of the best around town, and a banero pasta dish, which was also really delicious - just the right amount of chilli!
Love the vibe and fresh look of the restaurant. We will definitely be coming back and hope they keep up the superb standards. My only tips of advice would be to have a wine list, alternatively to mention what wine is on offer and to have a baby changing table. They do have a kiddie loo, which is really sweet and so catering for the smaller ones would help too!
Best Pizza and Italian food we have eaten in a long time...and we eat there on a regular basis, besides good food, the service is impeccable and the owners and management go out there way to may your experience an enjoyable one.
Going to be doing any future business functions there and our many overseas guests will be treated to at least one meal there.
Keep it up guys

I am converted - best damn pizza in SA! Luckily all at the table chose different pizzas so we had opportunity to pick from each other's plates. All of the pizzas were excellent. Top food, service and good vibe. Need to find this hidden gem in Boskruin. The centre is newly renovated and spruced.
Best pizza, friendliest service, and best part is that they deliver!! Will definitely be frequenting and recommending it to all of our friends1
Although I have not yet dined in at Panteli's, I have had a take away pizza from them. Well distributed toppings on a thin wood fired base is my idea of pizza perfection and that's what you get at Panteli's. I'm looking forward to dining in for the full experience and suspect it will become my new regular, reliable pitstop for pizza.
I've had pizza here before and it was very yummy, we have also tried the pasta and it was very good. A nice Italian restaurant close to home.
Would definitely recommend! Went in a big group, absolutely incredible service, orders all spot on and food came quickly. All the staff is incredibly friendly and our waiter was amazing. Stunning decor- very pretty with a lot of attention to detail. And lastly the food- so so yummy! Everyone at the table was very happy with their meal.
I am always willing to go to a place that I hear makes a good thin base pizza and that is how I ended up at Panteli's.
They definitely didn't disappoint. My pizza had a nice thin, crispy base with a generous amount of toppings on it. My dad had the chicken breasts and a salad which were still nice and tender and my mom had the alfredo which she also really enjoyed.
The staff were all really friendly and the manager/owner was a very nice guy as well. The food was also quite quick.
Definitely somewhere I would go back to.
Awesome place and really reasonably priced
Went in a big group and service was great!
Had the Americano pizza with pulled pork and cranberries - was really yummy
Love the thin pizza bases
Everyone enjoyed their meals
Been to Pantelli's a few times now, pizza are really, really good!!! They deliver in my area so that's a big +. The owner PC is hands on and wait staff amazing!!!!!!!
Discovered this place not to long ago and have always been saying we need to try their pizza. Finally did and it was delicious, i regret waiting so long.
As it was in the middle of the week and had a tiring day at work, we opted for take-away. The wait is so short, you can barely call it a 'wait'. The setup is inviting and relaxed and you are always greeted by a friendly face.
We have the Cyprus pizza, halloumi, rocket, avo and cherry tomatoes - so lovely and tasty... Definitely on my list of fav pizza places.
Wowwwww what unbelievable customer service, especially for delivery, phone etiquette was fantastic and efficient. We have actually been there before for a meal and the service and attention to detail was amazing... this has topped it for us and the food is fantastic all freshly made. Thank you Izzy, chefs, management and the gentleman that delivered blown away!!!!
What a sweet little Italian joint hidden away at Summerfields Shopping Centre! The menu offers a great selection of typical Italian cuisine, along with options such as burgers. I had the Alfredo, which was very rich (a true Alfredo trait), and arrived in a generous portion. The service was superb and everyone at my table seemed really pleased with their meals.
Rustic atmosphere tucked away in the heart of Boskruin. Friendly service and delicious meal. Recommended family restaurant for a good time put.

What a lovely dinner. Izzy was our waitress. I had the 250g ribs with chips (R60) and they were yummy! Hein had the Pulled Pork and sundried tomato pizza. It was great. Thin crust, good flavour. Cappuccino's good.
It's a great little restaurant with a few different seating areas and quirky decor. We had Dayna, a trainee, and she was good.
few months ago:
Our pizzas were good, but since we had 2 different pizzas and they looked almost identical ... that was just a bit freaky to me! Crust was thin, but mine had bacon and blue cheese and I couldn't really taste the bacon.
My wife and I decided we would give Panteli's a spin. The vibe is really great, good music and the atmosphere was warm. The service was really good, great to see friendly smiling staff. All this is is just the cherry on top of the cake.. the proverbial cake being the amazing food. I had a Pizza and my wife had the bolognese. Both were exceptionally delicious. It was refreshing to see people putting passion into the food they serve. It was so full of flavour there was none left over for lunch the next day! Pity we are moving to CT at the end of the month this would have become my new top dinner spot.
Been there twice now and glad to see it is growing its fan base! Had their burgers and pizzas and absolutely yummy! Nice thin and crisp base with fresh toppings can't go wrong plus excellent service from staff and management! A really nice refreshing break from all the franchise pizza places, definitely becoming regulars!!
Absolutely brilliant service and extremely accommodating owner who is obviously passionate about food and customers. Their gluten free pizza base tastes just like the real deal.
Think this may just become a weekly deal!
Edit: three months later and still come here pretty much weekly. If I could give this place more than 5 stars I wouldn't hesitate!
Excellent hospitality! Most delicious pizzas and pasta that is reasonably priced. Quality ingredients and oven fresh! My new favorite pizza place!
