Dario Pizza & More

About Dario Pizza & More

Dario Pizza & More is a small Italian restaurant at 6 Clementi Road, opened in February 2015 by Chef Dario as the realisation of a long-held dream built with perseverance, hard work and a genuine love for pizza and Italian food. From its cosy West Coast dining room it has been bringing Italian taste to this corner of Singapore ever since.

The food is the heart of it: authentic Italian pizza made by an experienced Italian master pizza chef, the most famous traditional pastas, and delicious homemade desserts like tiramisu, panna cotta and a crunchy Nutella tart. The menu runs from a simple Margherita to signature pies like the Beppe with gorgonzola and garlic oil, plus folded calzoni, homemade lasagna, gnocchi alla Sorrentina, and Italian beer and wine to pour alongside.

Chef Dario has always believed the keys to the restaurant's success are consistent quality of food and a warm ambiance delivered by professional, friendly staff. Whether you settle into the small, cosy room for dinner, book a table in advance, or order in through Deliveroo, Foodpanda or GrabFood, the promise is the same — a good dining experience where, as they put it, Italy has never been so near.

Dario Pizza & More: Homely Italian Pizza, Pasta and Tiramisu on Clementi Road, Singapore

Dario Pizza & More occupies a modest spot on Clementi Road, and that is precisely its charm. Since February 2015, when Chef Dario opened the doors on a dream built with perseverance and hard work, this small West Coast pizzeria has been serving authentic Italian food with the kind of warmth that turns first visits into standing habits. The restaurant's own philosophy says it best: consistent quality of food, and a warm ambiance delivered by professional, friendly service.

A dream baked into every base

At heart, Dario pizza&more is a pizzeria, and the pizzas are made by an experienced Italian master pizza chef. The menu splits neatly in two. The classic list runs from the simple Margherita and garlic-scented Marinara to the Diavola with salame, the Carbo with bacon and egg, and the white-base 4 Formaggi with gorgonzola, parmesan and smoked scamorza. The Italian selection goes further: Bufalina with scattered mozzarella and bufala cheese, Estate topped with Parma ham and parmesan, and Contadina with grilled eggplant, capsicum and zucchini for vegetarians. Two pies carry the house signature label — the Beppe, loaded with salame, onion, gorgonzola and garlic oil, and the 4 Stagioni, quartered with cooked ham, mushroom, artichoke and black olives. If you prefer your pizza folded, the calzoni, stuffed with mozzarella, ham and mushroom or with salame and gorgonzola, do the job nicely.

Pasta, dolci and something in the glass

The 'more' in the name earns its keep. Pastas, in spaghetti or penne, cover the Italian canon: aglio & olio in bacon, prawn or mushroom versions, arrabbiata with garlic and chilli, amatriciana, carbonara, and a traditional bolognese. The homemade lasagna — baked sheets layered with Bolognese beef sauce, mozzarella, béchamel and parmesan — is a fixture of the restaurant's gallery, alongside ravioli tartufati in a delicate creamy sauce and gnocchi served either in Gorgonzola sauce or alla Sorrentina with melted mozzarella. Save room for dessert: tiramisu, panna cotta and crostata alla Nutella are made in-house, and the affogato — gelato drowned in espresso — is the perfect full stop. To drink there is Peroni on draught, bottled Italian beers, and a serious Italian wine list spanning Prosecco and Pinot Grigio to Barolo and Brunello di Montalcino.

The experience

This is a small, cosy room — a proper neighbourhood Italian restaurant with a bar, a Vespa adding character by the entrance, and staff who smile as they serve. Start the Italian way with bruschettine, caprese or bufala with Parma ham, or share truffle fries over a cold beer. Lunch runs from 12pm to 2pm and dinner from 6pm, with slightly later closes on Friday and Saturday nights and a straight-through 12pm to 9pm service on Sunday. Can't make it in? The kitchen travels too, via Deliveroo, Foodpanda and GrabFood.

Good to know

All menu prices are subject to a 10% service charge, and vegetarian choices are marked on the menu. A few dishes, like the bruschettine, are weekday only and unavailable on weekends and public holidays. Tables can be booked through the website's Book a Table page or by calling the hotline on 9446 0253. As Chef Dario likes to say, Italy has never been so near as before — try them and believe.
