We went last night to check it out! Overall nice place, staff was nice. Pizza was just okay, we had the pepperoni pizza and the chicken buffalo pizza. We tasted something sweet to the sauce on the pepperoni pizza and didn't care much for it. The chicken buffalo was better. Not sure if we'd go back for the pizza, but maybe to try the grinders or calzones. The place reminded is of Pinthouse Pizza but smaller scale. read more

Aviator Pizza & Drafthouse - Pizza Near Me - Austin, Texas

See all

First time here and really enjoyed it! Marley and Caspian were super friendly and helpful when we were ordering. This is a place where you order at the bar and they bring your food to you. The place is also dog friendly in case you want to take your pet. We ordered the large margherita pizza plus a lg. pepperoni/basil. Both were TASTY and hot--just the way I like it! The reason I didn't give 5 stars is that the margherita pizza was missing a smidgen of more flavor. Other than that, the place also has an easy going vibe. Definitely will be back! read more

Just had a spinach & artichoke pizza. I picked it up at the assigned time. The pizza was undercooked, cold & had very little sauce. Very disappointed. read more

Fantastic pizza with quick & friendly service on a week night. I was surprised there weren't more people there considering how great the place is. Their "South Austin" pizza and cinnamon + pecans dessert were both delicious. I'll be back! read more

Holy moly, I'm so glad I live nearby to this fabulous pizza joint. The service is always phenomenal. Tonight Araceli was the ultimate host, so generous, sweet, and tentative. We were celebrating my partner graduating and she made sure to make this an extra special moment for our party. Highly recommend this place. Great outdoor seating. Wonderful draft beer selection. 10 stars. read more

Pizza tasted really good However I think it was way too expensive I was just trying something new out and I wanted to try them they were delicious don't gwe me wrong I could definitely taste the authenticity but I don't think it was worth $40 for one large pizza and breadsticks. It was a nice try I really liked it I really like the way it was original but I probably won't beBack and it's not in a mean way it's just not in my budget but I'm sure it's in plenty of other people's budget because it's tasting very good. Keep up the great work! read more

All I have had here are their salads, but the ones I've had were so good and very large & filling! My friend gets their pizza and loves it. You order at the bar & you seat yourself. We'll will keep coming back. Would recommend checking out. read more

The South Austin pizza on gluten free crust is terrific! Great staff too! I live in NY and come to Austin from time to time. It's nice to know there's a place like Aviator just down the street from where I stay. read more

Aviator Pizza & Drafthouse - Austin Special on gluten free crust. Delicious! - Pizza Near Me - Austin, Texas

We love Aviator! Consistently delicious pizza and grinders, cool interior, ridiculously friendly staff and owner. Everyone there is fun and enthusiastic. We've gotten a LOT of different pizzas with zero complaints. I get the sense that if one had a complaint, it would be addressed quickly and happily. read more

Words cannot explain how good this pizza is. I'm a huge huge huge huge fan. Going to become a regular. A few months later: I'm a regular. Still think this is the best pizza in Austin read more

Great Za, great staff, great beer. Time is money, money is power, money buys pizza. Pizza is power

Hard to mess up a cheese pizza but this place knows how lol. Super doughy, undercooked, no crunch

This was our first time at Aviator. The service was great, really friendly and welcoming. They have a great beer selection and have several wines available. We shared the Flying Garlic pizza; it was delicious! We managed to save a couple of slices to bring home, they won't last long though. We'll definitely be visiting again! read more

There is a pizza place in California i am always trying to top. This is it!! Great beer selection and staff as well!! Love!!!

Food was good, but 3 stars for the lack of hygiene. The cashier/beer tender pulled all of the interior garbage cans and without washing his hands went to get our food. Another employee began mopping while we were finishing our meal (mop water smell is not appetizing). They both seemed bothered to have more customers coming in, even though the restaurant was open for another 40 minutes. read more

Super good pizza. Awesome customer service. The wrong pizza was brought out to us initially, but was made right by letting us keep the wrong pizza and bringing us the right pizza. On top of that, they gave us a free dessert. Definitely visiting more often and making it a regular spot in my family's rotation. read more

Aviator Pizza & Drafthouse - A "PEP" O-Roni Pizza! - Pizza Near Me - Austin, Texas

After being a hardcore Dominos guy for the first 8 years of adulthood I have finally conceded a better pizza. Although I will still frequent dominos more because of pricing, Aviators is far and away the best pizza I've had. We ordered the pepperoni and basil, sadly the only bad thing I could say is that they don't offer pineapple as a topping, but the pizza was outstanding. read more

This was a good place for our group's happy hour. They have good beer and bread sticks. One of the very cool bartenders steered me right on wine. The atmosphere is not exciting, but a good casual place to meet up. read more

I never leave bad reviews so that speaks for itself. Maybe I need to try it again (because I always see a bunch of people there) but maybe the worst pizza ever. They messed up our order (which is totally fine and I don't really count that against the place because mistakes happen) so they gave us a free pizza and we disliked it so much we couldn't even eat the FREE FOOD. which is saying something. Customer service was good so I threw in an extra star. read more

Good pizza I enjoy it. During Covid they stated doing curbside and the service was very quick. They have a variety of toppings.

Not for me. Crust is sweet. Didn't like the sauce. It had a funky smell that filled up my car the minute the pizza was inside. Salad wasn't good just iceberg. Paid for the extra chicken in the salad which was nonexistent and was hard to recognize as chicken. Two pizzas and two salads $60+ before tip. Next time I'll pass....... read more

Good food, but horrible customer service. I called to place an order during their "busy time" only to get placed on hold for almost 30 minutes. While still on hold, I decided to drive to the restaurant (which is only about 5 minutes away from my house) to see what was going on. Expecting a huge crowd, I walked inside only to see a handful of people seated at the tables. I approached the bartender to let her know what was going on and she informed me that they had to "take the phone off the hook because they were so behind on orders." I had never heard of that in my life and was extremely disappointed. The least they could have done was taken me off hold and let me know the situation before I had to drive over there and waste my time. I didn't even get an apology. I will not be going back. read more

This pizza was so flavorless and messy. The cheese just fell off when you pulled out a piece. Plus, I asked for light sauce and there was mounds of it. The honey sriracha Brussels had no flavor. For the price, this place sucked. You're better off with dominos. read more

This place is good. My only real complaint is the crushed red pepper seemed to lack a kick. The pizza was great. The beer selection was awesome. The service was great. And the prices reasonable. Not much more is needed. read more

Great modern and industrial looking interior. Fresh and clean. Fantastic beer and pizza! Plus, they have bands perform there on the weekends. read more

My boyfriend and I always come here when we're craving pizza! It's always super delicious! There's a patio outside which is also dog friendly. I recommend this place! Also, I've been receiving emails that they have live music now sometimes, I haven't gone to a live show but I definitely will be soon! read more

Pizza and service is great! The only negative is that the two locations don't offer the same menu. I love the Curry pizza from the Elgin location and the Austin location does not offer it :( read more

I have to give this place 5 stars! As soon as we walked we could smell delicious food. It's a little pricey but definitely worth it! The pizza came out fresh and hot and so delicious! We also split a ham and cheese sandwich. I was so pleased that it was a hot sandwich with vegetables. We will definitely be back! read more

Aviator's Pizza is delicious! I got to have lunch with my best friend and we had a great time in such a comfortable environment. There was a lot of seating and the restaurant seemed to be very clean (: read more

Fave pizza place in Austin! Perfect ambiance and even better beer selection. Employees are great with helping new customers choose from the menu options and navigate through the full beer menu as well! I highly recommend this place! read more

Omg very disappointed they don't have a good pizza they are better off ordering pizza hot and resale it. Nice on the beer.

Fantastic pizza. Cool atmosphere. I will certainly be back when I come to Austin again. My only complaint is the peculiar sink in the bathroom (I was confused about how to turn on the water). read more

This place is freaking awesome, the pizza is fantastic, the music is effing legit (like 70s and 80s metal and hair bands), they have a bunch of beers on tap, and they have wine on tap. What? That's crazy and amazing. And everyone was super friendly. When spring/summer hits, I'm eating here every weekend out on the patio when I'm allowed to eat like the fat kid that I am at heart. read more

Excellent pizza & beer! One of my favorite spots for specialty pizza and a great draft beer selection. Take pizza & jugs of beer make it a great pick up and go place. read more

Very delicious pizzas. Great beer selection and friendly staff. This place is a little pricey though. Has an awesome patio though. Great for groups and sharing. read more

Good pizza for first timer to this place, empty when late lunchin' like what we did. Place is clean and family friendly. Not a fan of beer so didn't really try their beer but i'm sure some will review them. For out of town first timer for a late lunch, this is definitely an awesome place :) read more

Had it for the first time recently and really loved the different pizza options. Our order came out quickly and the staff was very friendly. Their pizza was delicious and a great price for the quality! I loved that the restaurant and their staff seem to be taking precautions very seriously. That goes a long way with my friends and me. read more

This place is a joke. They want to charge 3.50 or something like that for a veggie for veggie substitute. Also attitude for not coming in with a mask on. Like wtf im literally about to sit down drink a beer and eat pizza read more

With all the Yelp reviews on here I was expecting greatness. The pizza was "ok". The cinnamon dessert was also "ok". Our order was wrong. We were charged for the cinnamon pecan which we ordered but got home and realized it was plain cinnamon. Best part of the meal was the sandwich. I'll stick to Pinthouse Pizza. read more

Decided to take my son out for his birthday here and was a bit leary after reading the other reviews but the location was convenient. I was a little bit disappointed to say the least. I had the small artichoke and spinach pizza. The crust was raw inside and the artichokes were not sliced up thin instead they set like a big blob on top of each slice and the 3 other pizzas were undercooked as well. The flavor was bland and just kind of blah. The staff was ok and friendly at first, until I complained about the food and then they were kinda left speechless. Don't think it's worth a second trip. Sorry guys! read more
