Dion’s Pizza has announced Farmington as the location of their 27th restaurant. Featuring handcrafted pizza, salads and subs, and fast, friendly customer service, Dion’s will open near E. Main Street & 30th/Gila in early 2022.


The restaurant is world-famous for its homemade Ranch dressing and pepperoni and green chile pizza, known as the 505. Recognitions include Most Admired Company in New Mexico’s Private 100 list, Restaurant Neighbor of the Year, and dozens of “Best of the City” awards.
