Dion’s Pizza is the Southwest’s beloved regional chain — founded in Albuquerque in 1978, now running 29 locations across New Mexico, Colorado, and Texas — famous for its green chile pizzas, fresh subs, and homemade dressings. In 2026, a small gourmet pizza runs roughly $8.56–$9.12, a medium Dion’s Special about $14.31–$15.94, and subs around $5.65–$7.06. This guide covers the full Dion’s menu with prices, the must-try pizzas, and where to find one. For a national fast-casual pizza comparison, see MOD Pizza’s menu with prices.
Dion’s publishes prices per store rather than nationally, and third-party delivery listings run higher than the counter price — so the figures below are ranges from 2026 delivery-menu observations with an in-store note where available. Your local Dion’s menu is the final word.
