Inside's pretty basic, they definitely lean towards takeout,

Michael B.

TLDR: As most of the reviews below state, this is 'pretty good' pizza. Definite standout from the sea of pizza chains, but it's a pricey alternative. Placed a medium mushroom-sausage pie order for pickup. Restaurant is pretty basic, a few tables and mostly designed for takeout. Staff was friendly and service was prompt. Toppings were fresh, decent cheese and sauce. A cut above a lot of chains. I'm a little mixed on the crust. Nice and doughy with a bit of chew, but overly thick at the rim, making the sauce and cheese pool towards the center. (See the picture, I'm not joking!) Overall, a good pizza but overpriced at +$20 for a two-topping medium. Still, since the quality was there, I'd give it a firm thumbs-up. This place scores a 4 out of 5 on the 'CTJ Scale', as noted below. 5 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Jesus good. Would be OK passing away after finishing a plate here. 4 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Mary good. Would be OK having a nosh here with Mother Mary. 3 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Joseph good. Would be OK having a beer here with Jesus' Dad. 2 out of 5 stars: Come-to-the-Apostles good. Meh. Wouldn't have my last supper here. 1 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Nobody good. I wouldn't have my penultimate supper here, either.

Someone recommended it to me recently so I thought I'd try it. Online ordering was a little confusing. Website looks like it was designed by a third grader in 1998. I don't know why they need my phone number AND email address for the order. After I finished, the site said I'd get a confirmation. Never did. Went to pick it up. Restroom looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a while. Staff was friendly. Pizza tastes pretty good. Sauce has a nice flavor; toppings were fresh. I have a little issue with hand tossed crusts. I like them, but they never seem to spread the sauce out far enough. A couple of the slices were only three bites. Seriously. Have a look at the picture. That's a lot of real estate that could have used more sauce and cheese. I would go back though. Maybe get a different type of crust.

I normally don't do reviews but I ordered a pepperoni pizza and got no Pepperoni, just cheese. First time trying it and will not be buying here anymore.

Not really a $24 pizza. They charges $2 extra for extra cheese and $2 for extra "fresh" basil. Flavor is okay, but it was a "ready made" crust...not at all fresh. Don't think I'll be back.

Sometimes you just want a pizza. This town is full of pizza joints on every corner. Garlic Jim's stands out from the crowd! It's nestled into a strip mall off of 1604 and Hausman, so it may be often overlooked. They are available for dine-in, pick up or delivery and I found out the hard (or easy) way that if you accidentally set your order for pickup and you meant delivery, you can easily call and ask them to deliver with no hassle. We've had a few different pizzas from Garlic Jim's but our favorites are the Cheeseburger and the famous Nutty Chipotle. The cheeseburger is topped with bacon, beef, cheddar cheese, classic red sauce, mozzarella cheese, red onions, Roma tomatoes and drizzled with Thousand Island dressing. I don't think it tastes quite like a cheeseburger but it is tasty. I think if they add some shredded lettuce on top that would be a nice addition. Then there is the Nutty Chipotle. I have never heard of such a thing but it is a very interesting choice. It comes with zesty chipotle pesto that is topped with spicy Italian sausage, pepperoni, red onions, tomatoes, and cashews. Cashews, you say? Yes, cashews. They are roasted right on top and you hardly notice them until you taste this interesting crunch from time to time. I add black olives to ours to gild the lily. In the past, we've had the Hercules (all meat) and enjoyed it as well. You have choices on the crust: hand-tossed, garlic thin, and gluten-free. We've tried the hand-tossed and garlic thin and I just can't decide which I like the best. I'd love for them to add a deep dish, but I'll stay happy with the other choices. Staff and delivery people have always been pleasant and accommodating. We don't order pizza very often, but when we do, it's usually Garlic Jim's. It's just a bit different and a good choice in a sea of Papa Johns, Dominoes, Pizza Hut, etc.

Had the hand tossed Big Jim. It wasn't bad. A little doughy still. Topping were a little under cooked as well. Not the worst pizza I have had, but nothing special really.

I've been here a number of times over the years. Pizza quality has always been decent but it seems that the staff is quite sullen. You can dine in, several tables are provided, but the dining area is poorly lit and the soda machine not well maintained. Yesterday an incident occurred that made me question why I bother to go out of my way to go here when there are other good pizzas in town. When I ordered a large pizza, the cashier rang me up for three dollars more than the posted price. I caught it and called him on it, so he reluctantly adjusted it to the price it was supposed to be. Made me wonder how often that happened on a daily basis. It could add up to a substantial sum over time! So next time I need a pizza fix, Garlic Jim's may or may not be under consideration. read more

We ordered from Garlic Jim's about a week ago after my pregnancy cravings for pizza kicked in. We recently moved to the area and were curious about the pizza scene here in Helotes. I have to say that I really enjoyed our takeout pizza from here so much! There was a bit of a garlic taste, but garlic is a flavor I don't mind at all (also hence the name). :) We ordered a large Sicilian pizza and it did not disappoint. I loved everything from the crust, gooey cheese, and plentiful toppings. Exactly what I wanted. read more

Tried Garlic Jim's for the first time last night. We were caught in the middle of a downpour and in the process of moving so we needed to carryout dinner. The young ladies there were very polite and courteous; answering my questions about particular menu items. I left with a large Big Jimmy, large pepperoni, Buffalo wings, and cheesecakes. We all enjoyed the crust on the pizzas even though we're diehard NY-Style pizzas. They were filling and proofed with flavor. The sauce on the Big Jimmy wasn't as good as I anticipated. It tasted very much like it was made with pre-cut, bottled garlic instead of fresh, but that didn't have any bearing on my review. The loss of a star is due to the price and wings. Our meal cost is $65 and the wings were pretty underwhelming and baked, which is never a good thing in my opinion. I'll definitely be back though as our overall experience was pleasant. read more

I wish I could give 3.5 stars because 3 is honestly low but 4 is to high (in my opinion). My husband and I actually did not agree on the food, he really enjoyed it where I was slightly disappointed. First I'll start off with the wings: the Buffalo sauce they use; amazing. It tastes so good and is actually a little spicy compared to most places where Buffalo wings are so vinegary. The blue cheese dressing they provide is also super yummy. I don't know if it's homemade but it sure does taste like it to me. With that being said, I didn't like the actual wing part because they were super "soft", I don't know if that's the right word. I'm used to really crispy wings and so I think it was just a preference thing. This was the one of two things my husband and I agreed on, we regret buying the wings. The Garlic Pizza: we both didn't like this pizza at all. I wish I could get my money back for it. It lacked so much flavor. Didn't taste any garlic, and honestly wouldn't have been able to tell you it had basil anything. My husband said it just tasted like dry bread to him which is disappointing since it did have tons of toppings. The other two pizzas my husband LOVED. The Sicilian was his favorite, he loved the flavor combos, loved how thin it was and said it was perfectly balanced; I thought it was meh. Cheeseburger pizza was probably the best out of all of them. I mainly only tasted salt but there was one part where I got the sauce and meat together and it really did taste like a cheeseburger. I think this pizza is a fun one and definitely worth trying. Overall, I think this place is okay. It's way better than dominos or Pizza Hut in my opinion BUT it wasn't worth the $94 spent. I wish I could get my money back and spend it elsewhere. read more

History

Established in 2004.

Garlic Jim's burst onto the scene several years ago and proved you can get a great gourmet pizza delivered quickly.... it's a concept that was designed by a group of guys with a whole lot of years of national chain as well as local pizza experience under their belts. All of them agreed that the national pizza chains understood how to deliver a pizza quickly. What was missing was a quality pizza. That is when the Garlic Jim's concept was born. The Garlic Guys have figured out how to make delicious gourmet pizza and also provide excellent and fast delivery service! Never again will consumers have to choose between quality pizza and fast, excellent service. Garlic Jim's is here. And now Garlic Jim's has perfected the next evolution in pizza; the individual Neapolitan pizza cooked to order in less than 5 minutes! These amazing pizzas are made in front of you with the toppings of your choice. It's a game changer; another pizza revolution from Garlic Jim's!

Dough Pizzeria Napoletana

Dough Pizzeria Napoletana truly lives up to its commitment to authenticity. Our waiter was…read moreincredibly attentive and took the time to explain the restaurant's philosophy: as many ingredients as possible are imported directly from Italy, and anything that can't be imported is thoughtfully sourced from local producers. That attention to detail definitely comes through in the food. I ordered the arugula salad with chicken, and it was outstanding. The combination of candied pumpkin seeds, creamy goat cheese, roasted beets, and balsamic vinaigrette was perfectly balanced, with every bite offering great texture and flavor. My friends ordered the pepperoni pizza and couldn't stop talking about how delicious it was. Then came dessert... and I completely lost all self-control--in the best way possible. We ordered the affogato, tiramisu, torta di polenta, and the Nutella torta. Every single dessert was beautifully executed and absolutely delicious. If I had to pick favorites, the affogato and the Nutella torta were the standouts, but honestly, you can't go wrong with any of them. Excellent service, thoughtfully sourced ingredients, and food that delivers from start to finish. I'll definitely be back!

I do with they would have comped a beverage or dessert for a birthday celebration. That was really disappointing especially considering the bills total.

We were warmly welcomed by our waiter, who seated us at a table with a lovely view of the river. We ordered the Funghi pizza to share between two people. The pizza was fresh, crispy, straight out of the oven, piping hot, and so delicious. I'd rate it an 8.5/10. The fresh mushrooms paired perfectly with the truffle, creating a rich and earthy flavor. The caramelized onions added just the right touch of sweetness, making the pizza perfectly balanced. This was a wonderful experience, and I would definitely love to revisit and try some of the other pizzas.

We went for lunch when hungry for salad & pasta. Pasta is not available until 4pm when dinner menu starts but we found plenty to be satisfied with. Meatball - will probably never pay $19 for one meatball again but it was good & large - Beef, Lamb, & Mozzarella. Caesar Salad - good. Margherita pizza - very good. Spinach artichoke pesto pizza - very good. Would be our favorite of the two if we had to choose. I'd recommend this place when visiting the riverwalk.

There is a bit of a wait for the food, but it's very clear why: everything is made fresh to order, and it is so worth it. We ordered the Colesseo pizza, focaccia bread, and the Green Poblano Chicken Lasagna, and every single bite was seriously delicious. We honestly did not have one negative thing to say about any of it. The focaccia deserves special recognition--it was hands down the most fresh and delicious focaccia I've ever had in my life. Light, flavorful, and absolutely perfect. If you're anywhere in the area, I highly recommend stopping by Pizza Vesuvio. It is beyond worth your time, and your taste buds will absolutely thank you.

Recently the waiters were all changed and cocktail service ended. We've been loyal customers so we decided to give the new crew the benefit of the doubt. We decided to grab some beers and watch the end of the Spurs game. The Brewery closes at 11:00, a waiter 5 minutes earlier closed our ticket courteously because they were closing. At 10:59 an employee, supposedly a manager, behind the bar, not assisting with any closing duties, rudely said in a loud voice " We're closing and shutting off the TV" Before that was said there was 50 seconds left in the game and we were putting on our coats. I said in response "this place sure has changed." Last time I encountered such rudeness was at the restaurant Ocho, also near the Riverwalk. They are now out of business. We will not be returning, sometime in the future we will look in to see if this person is still working here (though we have not seen her do much working besides lurk behind the bar and the ladies room door. Customer service is one of foundations of of any good business, hopefully this establishment will return to it's previous standards.

The food feels like the chefs were given good quality materials, but had no idea what to do with them. We ordered a funghi pizza to share then a cinghiale, a costine (short ribs), and a dentice (bass). Funghi pizza was the only dish that made coming worth it at all. It had a nice flavor, but if you're expecting the notes of an earthy mushroom flavor, don't. It's just a nicer version of a standard cheese pizza topped with some onions and mushroom. The cinghiale was just stunningly mediocre. The meat was flavorful, but the pasta itself was shockingly bland. It was just so... ok. The dentice was the best of the 3 individual dishes, but it is just what you would expect some average short ribs with random sauce to taste. The costine was just terrible. Salty on the outside, yet flavorless on the inside. Avoid at all costs. The service was passable, but they clearly overwork their servers as one server just handles an entire section and is too overwhelmed to be timely. I came to cheer myself up, but honestly it only made dinner comically worse. I seriously can't imagine what would cause someone to rate this as 5 stars. Maybe if they thought Olive Garden was 4.5, then I guess this would barely be a 5 in comparison? Either way, if you're looking for good food for your dinner, keep looking. You won't find it here.

We arrived around 5pm on a Thursday and got in queue which was out the door and wrapping around the front porch. Their host/doorman was kind, he offered the line water on many occasions and made pleasantries with almost all guests as the line moved. It was a hot day so those waters were clutch. By the time we made it to the front of order line maybe 40 minutes had passed. But ladies and gents the wait is worth it. When we plated our trays on the table my family all had heart eyes, and had equally loved our first bites. Their brisket is extremely tender. It's beautifully sliced and made for an amazing welcome back to the South taste for me. I was in heaven. I particularly enjoyed having the fresh pickled red onion for fresh, zesty cuts through the abundance of other saltier elements on the plate. Their menu is slammin! Their sides, and sausages all had crafty ingredients. I enjoyed their spicy link options and their macaroni was delightful. Their BBQ sauce was a nice 4/5 but certainly did the job. As a native Texan who's had their fair share, this was easily some of the best barbecue I've ever had. Top 5 top 5 top 5. I'm of course coming back and looking forward for more banana cream pudding especially. They were small, slightly sweet, and had great balance with the vanilla wafer ratio. That whip cream on top too had me hooked. I couldn't have asked for a better welcome back meal for the bold Texas cuisine, hospitality, and novelty animal and cowboy decor.

As a result sounds inside magnify to a point our servers have had to bend over or take a knee to gather clients food orders during busy times. I feel like I am ar a big Spurs game with the sound bouncing around. Those at our table have had a hard time to have a conversation with each other at times. The small room up front is designed so sound bouncing off hard surfaces is worst in this room. I have had to ask to be relocated twice from this room due the sound level. The kitchen area in the front do not have doors to abd from the kitcgen to the dinibg rooms. Another design flaw, as a result the seating areas loud sound comes into the kitchen area.

Color Me Surprised: Garlic Jim's Actually Won Me Over! Okay, confession time: I've never been the biggest pizza fan. It's just never really wowed me, you know? So when my friends suggested Garlic Jim's, I went along, but honestly, my expectations were... low. Boy, was I wrong! This place has genuinely made me rethink my entire stance on pizza. What hit me first was the smell. Not just your typical doughy aroma, but a fantastic blend of garlic (obviously!), herbs, and something genuinely enticing. I decided to be adventurous and try their Garlic Jim's Special. Now, I'm not usually one for a ton of toppings, but this combo of pepperoni, mushrooms, olives, and that signature garlic sauce? Seriously delicious. The crust had this perfect balance of chewy and crispy, and the toppings tasted fresh, not like they'd been sitting around. Then someone at the table ordered the Mediterranean Chicken Pizza. I took a slice, and wow! The feta, sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, and grilled chicken were a flavor explosion. It wasn't your typical heavy, greasy pizza; it felt lighter and more vibrant. And that garlic-infused olive oil base? Chef's kiss! Even their simpler pizzas seemed to have a quality that I hadn't experienced before. The cheese was gooey and flavorful, the sauce had a nice tang, and even the crust on the plain pepperoni was surprisingly good. Honestly, Garlic Jim's has done something I didn't think was possible: they've turned a pizza skeptic into someone who's actually looking forward to their next slice. If you're like me and haven't been blown away by pizza in the past, or if you're just looking for a really solid and flavorful pizza experience, you absolutely need to give Garlic Jim's a shot. You might just find yourself pleasantly surprised. read more

My boyfriend and I stumbled upon this place a couple months back and have loved it ever since. We have came here to eat 5 or 6 times so far and have yet to be disappointed. We usually just get a specialty (we like the gourmet garlic) because it can get a little pricey if you create your own. We have also tried their breadsticks wings and desserts and everything was good. Staff is friendly and awesome every time we've come which is refreshing. We both really love this place. read more

My wife and I tried this place a few days ago and we both left feeling satisfied to the fullest. Ordered a large hand tossed ultimate and a med thin sicilian, both were really great pizzas. The ultimate was loaded with toppings and they were all fresh. The thin crust on sicilian had a nice flavor. Staff was very friendly, seemed to keep busy cleaning (always a plus) and food came up quick. We will be back - probably very soon :-) read more
