About Paloma Pizza & Pasta Restaurant

Paloma nails old-school suburban Italian with heavily loaded pizzas, rich pastas, and zero pretension. Regulars rely on the Wantirna South staple for weeknight family feeds and club breakups where value and portion size matter. Bases arrive toasted on the edges with dough soft enough to support piles of toppings—think the house special or classic Americana. The kitchen accommodates dietary needs with a dedicated gluten-free menu, turning out everything from crisp vegetarian pies to chicken Valentino and soft gnocchi.

  • Heavily Topped Pies: Toasted crusts carry generous, piled-high toppings across meatlovers, vegetarian, and house special pies.
  • Dedicated Gluten-Free Selection: A dedicated gluten-free menu provides broad options across pizzas and homestyle mains.
  • Family & Group Friendly: Generous portions and warm service suit weeknight takeaway boxes and large group functions alike.

Before you head over

Practical advice on timing, dietary options, and group bookings for your visit.

  • Ask for the Dedicated Gluten-Free Menu

    Paloma features a dedicated full gluten-free menu covering pizza and Italian dishes, but guests with strict dairy or non-standard dietary requirements should communicate allergies carefully when ordering.

  • Book Ahead for Large Gatherings

    The dining room accommodates large parties and team breakups, but booking in advance ensures coordinated kitchen pacing and smooth service for 20+ guests.
