Finding good pizza in Korea is like climbing a mountain in flip-flops. Sure, you can still do it, but it isn't easy. Luckily for everyone Pizza da Gennaro is an easy to find establishment that will leave you satisfied. In terms of pizza in Changwon it is in my recommended top place to go and it is also my favorite place to take out from. I wasn't a big fan after the first time I had it, but that was probably because I didn't really give it a chance. After reconsidering and going in to the restaurant to sit down and try what they offer. I was blown away. Hands down, this place is the best pizza you will get in Changwon.
I want to start with the pizza because it is that good. This pizza here is their 8,000won option. It is heaven. Wonderful thin crust pizza with the right amount of cheese and sauce. Highly recommended.
The next pizza we tried was a potato pizza that had some real ham baked under the cheese. I'm not usually a fan of pizza with potatoes inside of it. However, if you are craving the more Korean style pizza options than this will satisfy you. It was still delicious, I just preferred the other one.
Because it was cheap and I was hungry, I decided to order some Paninis. They were, dare I say, better than the pizza. They use all handmade bread for the Paninis and I am probably going there tonight to get two for dinner. They were seriously awesome. My words cannot reflect the groaning and watering my mouth and stomach are doing respectively. I can't wait till 5 o'clock.
I don't know if you can tell what this is, but it is the menu completely translated to English. This is awesome if you don't speak Korean. The woman and man who are usually running things behind the counter are just awesome. I can't explain adequately enough how nice they were. It really helps to meet nice people. It brightens everyone's day. Pizza also does this. Why not have both at the same time?
This is what you see when you walk in. That is the oven that they use to bake the pizzas. It smells awesome here. Seriously. Go now.
To finish up I'd like to point out that there is a patio that you can dine at. It's awesome. Patio=win. It's unfortunate it was a bit chilly when we went and there weren't many seats. A hippo and a dog were reading and drinking coffee. They must have been there for hours.
PROS
-Easy to find.
-Cheap. Not one pizza was over 17,000 won and the most delicious won is 8,000 won.
-Excellent staff. Very kind.
-Delicious. Beyond delicious. Magnificent pizza.
CONS
-The only con is that it is thin crust. I am deep-dish through and through.
LOCATION
This is located on the main drag in Hapseongdong. Any bus that goes to Masan will let you off on the main drag, just listen for Hapseongdong. After getting off a bus from Changwon you will need to use the underground cross-way to get to the proper side. Once there, while keeping the main road on your right-hand side follow the sidewalk a ways down. Keep going until you see the patio. Use this number to call ahead for take-out--> 055-256-5545
Pizza Da Gennaro is next to the building with the yellow square.
