    Hidden Gem ! I've always passed by this little pizza place and finally decided to give it a try , Mr.Eli was extremely welcoming and kind , this place really makes you feel at home , the pizza is a little pricey but MAN do you get what you pay for , the sauce is amazing , the crust is perfectly crispy , the cheese has the perfect cheese pull , this is hands down THE BEST pizza around, definitely worth the money and will be returning soon . If you haven't this is a MUST try !

    Order out only. Friendly service over the phone when I called, friendly service in person. I was picking up my order about 8:30 p.m. Drove up to owner outside chatting with a lady seated at a small table chatting with her dog hanging out on a leash. My order was ready, I was given a preview sneak peak into the box and given the total of $22.80. It was a large, 3 topping pizza with pepperoni, sausage & mushrooms. Let the lady know I was a first timer and she said "you're gonna love it! Everything is fresh." Sounds good to me. Got home 5 min later and tried a slice. It was good. Fresh gooey cheese, there was a bit too much (I know! Who complains about that! Ugh! & I love cheese!) mostly because it overpowered that sauce that was so tasty sitting on top of the yummy, crispy yet chewy crust. Toppings of pepperoni, sausage & mushroom definitely didn't overpower that cheese. They were good and they were fresh. For my first time, I'd say this place made a good first impression. For the service alone, I will be back. Looking forward to trying those Sammie's I read about from my fellow Yelper's! Nice little neighborhood gem established in the 80's! They gotta be doing something right!!

    Cheese, meats and Supreme from the best New York style in town!

    I love this place. Just moved into the neighborhood and can't get enough Maria's pizza The crust is prefect, crispy and golden. The pies are never greasy. Do yourself a favor and get some Maria's pizza.

    This hidden family run pizzaria was a great find. Pack your patience and prepare for a delicious fresh pizza. Crust is crispy and tomato sauce is light and tasty. It did take 45 minutes mainly due to peek Saturday 7pm rush and just mom and pop running the operation. I assume due to COVID, kitchen help is a luxury. Owner went out of his way to hand out sodas to those of us waiting and apologized... Now that's customer service!

    Really nice people but I've had better frozen pizza. The salad was just okay too. High prices for average quality and quantity.

    I was in San Antonio for a work conference and somehow ended up at Dough two nights in a row…read more Honestly, after the first meal there was no way I wasn't coming back. The first night I was greeted by a friendly host and sat at the bar, where Billy took great care of me. He recommended the Cotto e Salsiccia, and I'm so glad he did. It was easily one of the best pizzas I've had. While I was there, the cheesemaker let me try a bite of the fresh mozzarella they were making in-house. It was still warm and absolutely delicious. The next night I was feeling a little homesick after being away for work, and all I could think about was that pizza. I walked back in and the host greeted me by name. I sat at the bar again, where another bartender remembered me from the night before, and Billy came over just to say hi. It seems like such a small thing, but when you're traveling alone, being welcomed back like that can completely change your evening. What really impressed me was seeing that it wasn't just me. The guy next to me ordered two pizzas to go, and when the chef brought them out he smiled and said, "Oh, Jose! I thought this order looked familiar!" You can tell they actually know their regulars and genuinely enjoy what they do. The second night I ordered the Fontina e Salsiccia, and somehow it was just as good as the first pizza. Everything is cooked in the wood-fired oven--even the wings--and you can taste the difference. The crust has that perfect char, the ingredients are fresh, and it's the kind of authentic Neapolitan pizza that keeps you thinking about it long after you've left. I've eaten at a lot of good restaurants while traveling, but very few have made me feel as welcome as Dough did. Great food is one thing. Great people are what made me come back the very next day. I'll absolutely be back the next time I'm in San Antonio.

    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!

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.
