Fun fact: this dough takes two full days before it’s ready to use. 🍕

To get that signature Paninni’s crust, we use a custom blend of two flours, a slow cold ferment, and an experienced pizzaiolo who knows how to stretch the dough and read the wood fire.

When you only use four or five toppings, there’s nowhere to hide. Every ingredient has to pull its weight.

Put it all together, and you get the airy, blistered crust of Naples, the light crispness of Rome, and big, honest flavours that speak for themselves.

If you’re local to Brisbane, come grab a table or order takeaway tonight.

When was the last time you had a proper woodfired pizza?

Meet the sweet and savoury combination you didn’t know you were craving. 🍅🌿 It starts with a delicate swirl of our signature honey garlic base, layered with melting fior di latte, rich roasted cherry and sundried tomatoes, crisp Spanish onion, and tender baby spinach, all crowned with creamy Persian feta. It’s a complete powerhouse of flavour.

If you’re hunting for Brisbane’s best pizza, add The Daisy to the top of your dining bucket list. 🍕

Customer comments on Google Reviews are similarly mixed. One customer wrote that they had a "fantastic experience" at Paninni's and appreciated the friendly staff and delicious food. Another customer complained about poor service and said they wouldn't return to the restaurant.
