Dion's Pizza is a privately owned restaurant chain specializing in pizza, salads, and subs, with a strong presence in New Mexico, Colorado, and Texas. Founded in 1978 by childhood friends Jon Patten and Bill Scott in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Dion's has grown to operate 28 locations across these states.

The menu at Dion's is diverse, featuring a variety of pizzas, salads, and subs. Pizzas come in sizes ranging from 10" to 16" and include options like the "Dion's Special," combining Italian sausage, pepperoni, red onions, mushrooms, black olives, green chile, ground beef, and smoked ham.

Gourmet pizzas such as the "Napoli," "Santorini," "Duke City," "Tuscany," and "Kansas City" offer unique topping combinations, including feta cheese, spinach, artichoke hearts, and BBQ sauce.

Salads at Dion's are made to order using fresh vegetables and crisp lettuce, with dressings prepared from scratch. Options include the "Chef Salad," "Greek Salad," "Chicken Caesar," and "Crunchy Spinach," available in half, full, or family sizes.

Subs are served on toasted white or wheat baguettes and come in varieties such as "Turkey & Swiss," "Roast Beef & Provolone," "Meatball & Provolone," and "Veggie," each customizable with a choice of side.

Dion's is committed to quality, using the finest ingredients and making food from scratch daily. They source products from reputable suppliers, using a signature Bonta Pizza Sauce free from preservatives and mayonnaise made exclusively from cage-free eggs.

Additionally, they incorporate local products when possible, including a custom blend of green chile from Bueno Foods in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

In addition to its regular menu, Dion's offers catering services suitable for corporate events, parties, and other gatherings. Catering options are designed to be both affordable and delicious, with delivery available for orders over $200 with 24-hour notice and applicable service charges.
