The verdict

Boleh

A return visit to Fino's Pizza that lands at mid-tier: the wood-fired pepperoni is juicy but the dough was soggy and inconsistent with past visits. The free honey-glazed chicken wings were the standout, and the charity pizza drive plus honest service earns goodwill.

Highlights

  • Price: Drinks RM10 each, on the pricier side
  • Taste: Juicy pepperoni and wood-fire taste, but soggy dough and inconsistent crust
  • Ambiance: Friendly service with free chicken for the wait and a charity pizza drive
  • Other: Ask for the unlisted napolitan thin crust for a better pizza

Last review, Fino's Pizza. Okay lime pop, strong on the fish, strong on the lime, strong on the pop, it's a very lively drink but it's 10 ringgit so it's Mahan and Mambrose and there is lemongrass. It can sometimes taste like dishwasher, car perfume, so tasty but got dishwasher after taste, 6.5. This is the cranberry fish, lemon slice. Ribena style with lemon. You can clearly taste a 50-50 of ribena and lemon, 10 ringgit. A bit on the pricier side, 7.2. This 8-slice 12-inch pizza, half big breakfast and half pepperoni. Pizza dough was okay but I'll touch on that later. Plus it's soft and fluffier, it had a good wood fire oven taste. The pepperoni itself is delicious. It was so juicy, easily the best part of the pizza. We were recommended the big breakfast but it was not bad, just nothing wow. Sausage is juicy, but it makes it even soggy and I don't like that. Big breakfast is a unique flavour of trying to put it on pizza but you're mostly tasting the English breakfast sausage. I've tried that pepperoni before and it felt like a totally different pizza dough. And it wasn't as soggy. There was also a good cheese pool but this time not so good also. Any type of pizza you prefer lah, I don't think you would like your topping to eat. You easily fall off as soon as you pull out your slice. Then I found out you can request for napolitan or traditional thin crust. It's not stated anywhere in their menu but if you're like me, get a thin crust. But for this pizza, 6.2. They gave us free chicken also because we were waiting a bit long. But they already let me know the reason why before I ordered. You see all that pizza there? It's for charity. Great customer service and I can't be mad at the reason. Big thanks to Finoz for giving us free chicken wings. Oh, very good. Skin very crispy, meat very tender, marinated all the way, juicy crispy honey glazed chicken wing. This chicken wing is a 8. That's good.
