  After walking by Dino's half a dozen times on our trip, we finally decided to stop in; weirdly, it does not seem that Seattle has that many pizza choices that are not extremely fancy.
  
  I was thrilled that Sicilian style was an option since it's almost impossible to find back home, and it's one of my favorite styles of pizza. We stopped in during happy hour, though I just opted for a ginger beer and a Sicilian-style slice of pepperoni. My friend had a round slice of pepperoni, garlic rolls, and a beer. My slice was everything I hoped and dreamed it would be; crispy yet fluffy with the perfect amount of melty cheese and tiny grease pools sitting in their pepperoni bowls. YUM. It was also a huge slice and more than enough to fill my tum for an in-between lunch and dinner snack.
  
  Everyone was super friendly and service was quick. The dim/red lighting was delightfully divey, but red lighting in the bathroom was very disorienting.
  
  Highly recommend stopping by Dino's if you're looking for a quick delicious Sicilian slice.

  To be fair, it takes a lot for me to start docking stars on here, but Dino's is great. They have both big square (Sicilian?) style pizza and the traditional round and I've had both and loved both. In fact, before the 8 bus stop got moved from right on this corner, I used to eat it MUCH more often because getting off the bus and walking past that smell without stopping was difficult.
  
  As a note, they will ID you to come in here unless you're getting it to go, so I don't think it's kid-friendly.
  
  As for service, some of the people are friendly and some are decidedly not, but it's hit or miss and maybe they already had their patience used up by drunk idiots those times. Hard to be mad about that.

  Dinos has a great location, good pizza, but terrible service. This is the only place that does Jersey style pizza, so that's the only reason to go here. Another good thing is that it's open late daily.
  
  The vibe of the place is weird, and you feel like an outsider and unwelcome as you enter from the demeanor of the staff. The ambiance is dark, and the place is funkily decorated in a good way. It's a reasonably sized restaurant with booths on one side and a long bar on the other.
  
  We tried a jersey style pizza, which was very unique. I enjoyed the food, but that's not a standard pizza you'd stuff when super-hungry. It's definitely worth trying. We had a mix of toppings like kale and broccoli, and it came out really well, much better than expected.
  
  The service, on the other hand, needs a lot of improvement. The host/bartender/food runner seemed really pissed at something, and annoyed to be there. His attitude was very uninviting. They didn't have table service when we went, but the bartender who took our order was friendly enough. Weirdly, they did not have proper flatware, and only provided paper plates. We had to go to the bar to get silverware. Not the kind of service that's acceptable when the default tip option is 20%.
  
  The prices are on the higher end, appropriate for specialty pizza in a full-service restaurant. The food was good, but the lackluster service did not warrant the price.
  
  Overall, just another not-great joint on the hill. The only reason I'd go there is to get that specific style of pizza.

  Having grown up in NY, I can authoritatively state that Dino's is the place to go to when you want a NY slice.  They're pretty inconsistent though, with the pizza coming out a little burnt sometimes, and perfect other times.  The only worthwhile pizza in my opinion is the cheese pizza, and their cheese delivers (their menu also warns customers that adding too many toppings will not make a pizza better).  The sauce is great, cheese is thin and not chewy, and the crust still a little moist when its not burnt.
  Interior is dim and old-fashioned.  Service is not terrible.  You order both your pizza and drinks at the bar.  The drinks are cheap relative to the other bars in Cap Hill (even the ones next door).  For reference, a Rainier tall-boy is $3.  It's loud on the inside.  There's a lot of booth seating that can fit up to 6 people and a few bar seats.

  I had a friend in town recently who wanted pizza before he left so I brought him to Dino's via a recommendation from my roomie who used to live in the Cap Hill area. This place was perfect on this night because we both wanted a cheap beer along with some pizza. We ended up getting a regular Sicilian style pizza. It was pretty delicious! It's a good size too, we ended up eating half of it and then ate the other half for breakfast. The service and atmosphere here is great, especially if you're showing a friend around or coming in with some friends. All in all, I'll definitely be coming back. Oh! I almost forgot, they also sell pizza here by the slice. My only complaint is that it's hot as an oven in here. But, that's not a deal-breaker.
