I can not believe the treatment that I just received at this establishment. I went in to pick up an order for a friend which was simply two slices of pizza and a calzone in which my friend thought was reasonably priced, not expecting it to be $18 as we are college students. However, once telling the owner that I did not wish to have the calzone and merely wished to buy the two slices of pizza, the owner, a very fragile older man, threw my card at me and the two slices of pizza at me. He also states while trying to gather my things" Your kind is always like that! Wanting something for free!", after I have already stated that I wish to PURCHASE the two slices of pizza. Once I gather my composure I begin to head out the establishment in which I hear someone call me a racial slur that begins with a N. I have never experienced this type of treatment before at an establishment and am honestly disgusted. I never asked for free pizza, I merely did not want to pay $30 for two slices of pizza and calzone, which is honestly ridiculous. My friend was trying to try a new pizza place but knew she should of just ordered from the more reasonably priced, cleaner, best quality food, friendlier pizza place right across the street from Mr. G's. read more

So there aren't many gf pizza places in town so we decided to finally give this one a try. It is a mom and pop place that is a bit dated but "rustic". My husband ordered the calzone and dear Barbara this thing can feed seven people easily. He said it was very good and the crust was delicious. I had the gf supreme and this is the best cooked crust in town. It's how a gf crust should be, crunchy and not burnt or soft. The sangria was okay. We will be coming back when the pizza mood strikes again!! read more

Mr. G's Italian Pizzeria - Calzone - Pizza Near Me - Bryan, Texas

Wow! I went to this restaurant for the first time and I am so impressed. I ordered a cold beer and a 16" Chicken Alfredo pizza. Great authentic Italian pizza! Sizable and cooked perfectly. Mr. G kindly stopped by my table, the waitress was efficient and friendly. I plan on coming here first for my next pizza craving! read more

My family and I love Mr G's! Such a clean family friendly environment! Would recommend

More like worse pizza in the world. It took them 1h since we order to get us a pretty meh pizza. They even have an office with desk and computers in the middle of the restaurant! Very 70-80s atmosphere... will never come back. read more

One of the best pizza place in town. Definitely a OG spot! The crust is awesome! Some people don't eat the crust but this one is super tender light and crispy. Their ranch is homemade I could just drink it lol my favorite would have to be chicken alfredo add spinach and onions and the margarita pizza!!!! read more

Mr G's is AMAZING & authentic! We love his pizzas and the calzones! The pizzas & calzones are HUGE! Always a treat when Mr G is there on premises! read more

I love this place! Mr. G's has the best pizza in the Bryan/College Station area. My boyfriend and I have been coming here for a few years and the pizza is superb. Large slices, not too much sauce and just enough cheese. It is kind of greasy though so if you are not a fan of greasy pizza this is not the place for you. The waiters aren't always the friendliest but I can get past that for how delicious the pizza is. I do wish they would give you more napkins, they tend to be quite stingy with them, even if you ask for more. For Valentine's day they give you your pizza in a heart shape which is super cute! read more

Mr. G's Italian Pizzeria - Classic 16" Pepperoni Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Bryan, Texas

Mr. G's has great pizza but my complaint is over the subpar service my friend and I received tonight. When we got seated we asked if we could order pizza slices and our server, Kristof, told us that that was only available during the week and since it was Friday we couldn't get it. We ordered a whole pizza and were fine until we saw the very same server take plates of slices of pizza to the table literally right next to us. I asked the guys sitting at the table and they told us he said nothing like that to them and they had no trouble ordering it. I'm just very confused and upset as to why that table was able to get their slices and we were made to order an entire pizza. read more

Hands down best pizza in bcs. No discussion necessary. You either know or you don't. Dough is fresh. Toppings and cheese are high quality imports. Has a good fellas feel inside. Do yourself a favor and go check it out. read more

I've lived in BCS over 40 years. Unfortunately, I have just tried Mr G's. I will now be a weekly patron as this is amazing pizza in an amazing place. !! Try it! You will not be dissatisfied. This is the oldest pizzeria in town with too many new guys trying to put it out of business. They are not going anywhere. read more

The food is amazing and has excellent service beautifully decorated and had lots of places to sit.

A beautiful building, excellent fresh food, great service. The pizza, calzone, salad, and caprese salad were all fantastic in a family like setting. I highly recommend Mr. G's. read more

Some of the best pizza I have had. Also the owners and the wait staff are extremely friendly. The Calzones are huge!

The pizza was very good and the calzone even better. We came in Friday night and there as live entertainment. The gentlemen were so fun but we were meeting friends there and it was so loud we couldn't talk without screaming. All in all, we will be back, but hopefully we can enjoy the company as much as the food. read more

This place is your stereotypical "Kitchen Nightmare". I was waiting for Gordon Ramsay to pass by at any moment cursing up a storm. The decor is odd, to say the least. The menu has a gray scaled head shot photo from Mr. G's audition for the 1995 Scorsese film "Casino" (sarcasm), a large 3x3' painting of his face, and random photos of him scattered about the restaurant. As for the food, the crust was good, the sauce and toppings were fair, and the serving of bottled soft drinks was comical. Obviously this guy is completely full of himself, which is wildly apparent after reading his bio on his website (please, go read it if you want a good laugh). The poor waitress was sweet and helpful, but Mr. G stared down the entire staff so much that they looked intimidated. I felt it was a little too expensive for the product, but the decoration and ambiance of the restaurant is what bothered me the most. At the end of our meal, we were presented with a dollar coupon off a future purchase...with you guessed it, his face on the front. My suggestions: loose the pictures of Mr. G, tidy up the place, make an office in the back instead of in the dining room, buy a filing cabinet, and buy a soda fountain. read more

Have been to both locations. Some great pizza and good service. I had heard the get busy, so each time I have gone at off times, such as a late lunch, or an early dinner and got a table right away and the food pretty quick. I'll be back for more. read more

In the kingdom of the blind, the one eyed man is king With these superfluous reviews, I decided to finally try this place. It's basically Sysco pizza ingredients on a nice Sysco crust. What's the big deal here? Crap Pizza. I could get something better in the frozen section at Kroger. read more

We came here craving good, cheesy pizza and we got it! The alfredo spinach pizza was delightful. Our waitress suggested we get the chicken alfredo pizza and add spinach- definitely going to do that next time. Friendly staff and tasty chocolate cannoli. read more

Having lived in Chicago for more than 20 years, I'm a freaking huge pizza snob. Don't even get me started on the continual "Chicago vs. NY" pizza battle (in a nutshell, you're mistaken, NY pizza). I live right around the corner from Mr. G's; I moved into my boyfriend's loft after he'd already lived here for two years. He said the pizza at Mr. G's was good, and I tend to believe his opinions about food (um, he's a chef). But I was still skeptical. I gotta say, that's some delicious pie. I'm an occasional vegetarian, so for the first one (for me), we got their Margherita, which has tomatoes, mozzarella and basil. It's delicious. Except for one foray into pepperoni territory (*see below), we get that every time. It's hot, fresh-tasting and Mr. G gives me parmesan to go. *The pepperoni pie was really good. The sauce is super-authentic tasting, with clear garlic and oregano notes and the crusts are nice and crispy and don't hog the show. I have to say though that for the money, the sizes aren't necessarily all that generous. Also, I can't speak to an in-restaurant experience because we always get ours to go. Mr. G is always there, and is a great host. It's as if Tony Bennett were your grandpa. Edit: I realized I'd originally reviewed the incorrect location for Mr. G's, sometime back in November. This is the correct spot, in downtown Bryan. read more

love their pizza!!! always very delicious. i normally order the pepperoni and sausage pizza

Some say that Stalinist Russia was repressive, but clearly those people had never been to nor worked at Mr. G's pizzeria in Bryan, Texas. The food is fine but it is like many New York style pizzas. It was definitely nothing to write home about. The service and the atmosphere though is what reminds me of the regime that murdered millions. First of all, the hours are extremely short, and Mr. G is very particular about those hours, turning away customers 30 minutes before they actually close. Along with that, if you are unfortunately there at closing time, Mr. G will begin turning off the lights, ushering people out, and turning off the air conditioning. A long with that, the wait staff is legitimately terrified of him as he stares like a hawk at all of them from his open office in the middle of the restaurant, calling them out if they do things differently than what he wants. He literally has no regard for the customer and would rather you leave than stay and buy his good. I will never go there again and fortunately (this could be the only difference between he and stalin) he can't come find me and have me silenced forever. Viva la revolucion! read more

Mr. G's is great. The only reason I don't make it out here more often is that it's located in Bryan. But fear not! They also have another location, one they share with Cenare, an Italian food restaurant that is located on University Drive, just past the intersection with Texas Avenue. The restaurants are owned by the same person, so if somebody in your groups feels like a greasy slice, and another person wants shrimp scampi, Cenare/Mr. G's is a great compromise. Hell, it's not even really a compromise! The service is fantastic and as I already mentioned, the menu is diverse because of the melding of the two restaurants. Besides just great pizza (which is enough) they have gigantic calzones which are some of the tastiest I've had. This place is a favorite of mine in the area and I highly recommend it. The Verdict: Come for the pizza, leave with leftover calzone. read more

Well I will start by saying the pizza wasn't bad but not great either. Went here on a weekday and was pretty quiet. Been looking for a good pizza place in BCS and wanted to try Mr. G's. The crust was cooked well and not soggy. The sauce was ok but not great along with the toppings. Seems like this place has been around for quite awhile. Hopefully they can spice thing up a bit. I did see someone order the calzone and it was enormous. read more

Mr. G's pizzeria is delicious. Overall a great place to dine and enjoy some really tasty pizza. Their Greek salad also has amazing dressing. I highly recommend if you are looking for authentic "pizzeria" pizza with delicious classic flavors. Their service is friendly and the restaurant has a really warm, homey atmosphere. I will definitely go back. read more

Mr. G's is real Italian pizza and it's the best in Bryan/College Station! They throw your pizza dough right in-front of you it's FRESH and delicious read more

Such a great pizza place in downtown Bryan. I think we tried almost everything on the menu and it was all fantastic. The flight of wine recommend by our waitress Lauren was also a great and came with a small charcuterie board! read more

For homecoming, my friends and I decided to eat at Mr. G's. They did an amazing job working with us and getting the whole upstairs prepped for our group. Maddie and Morgan were our waitresses and did a fabulous job. Not to mention Mr. G's has the best pizza in town. Highly recommend for a place to eat and even for a big group!! read more

From a purely food standpoint, this would be 3.5 - 4 stars; mainly due to the Gyro Pizza - delicious! Feta, lamb, tzaziki all on a pizza! They have calzones the size of a man's torso, but unfortunately I didn't really taste much meat (if you get the original). For starters, try their sausage rolls - pretty tasty upgraded versions of pigs in a blanket. Besides the Gyro pizza, the others were mediocre. I've had better. Service wasn't necessarily unfriendly; I just don't think they know how to handle larger crowds or when there's a lot going on at once. There was a party upstairs, and lots of people in since it was graduation weekend. They got our order wrong by giving us the wrong pizza, and when we told them they said they'd put in the original order - but apparently they never did and we never got our pizza. read more

Being a newbie in town, I have been taking recommendations on places to eat out. A local friend recommended this pizza place so I headed over. As other reviewers have mentioned, this may be good pizza if you don't know or have ever had good pizza. The margarita pizza's crust was bland and the cheese was lacking in any flavor. The killer for me was the dried herbs liberally sprinkled on top of the entire pizza- they were crunchy and just off putting with the fresh tomatoes. I had the drink special of the night, a margarita, and I couldn't finish it. The drink tasted like salt, cheap mix and bad tequila- they used iodized table salt on the rim instead of sea salt or other less processed salts- yuck! The one positive is that the servers were nice and prompt, and the owners were friendly. Can't say I will be going back again. read more

My boyfriend and I were in Texas this past weekend visiting his family and on our last day his mom wanted to take us to her favorite pizza joint in town. She is from New York so we knew we were in for a treat because she obviously knows her pizza! This pizza joint is located in the small town of Bryan near College Station. The area itself was cute....there was what looked to be like antique stores and ice cream parlors around it so it seems like the type of area to have a little day venture before or after stopping to get a bite to eat. The pizza was SO GOOD! If you are a fan of the thin crust then this is definitely the place to go! They brought it straight out of the oven and it was so gooey that it was difficult to even cut the pieces apart! We ordered a large and it was plenty for the four of us. It was 2 slices a person, but they were generous sized slices. The decor and building is definitely old, but I actually think this gives the place a little character. There are old photos around with simple table and chairs. I was told the Mr. G is always there and sure enough he was. He made sure to greet us and bid us good bye prior to us leaving. They are losing a star due to our waitress. I do not eat pork and the rest of our table wanted pepperoni so instead of doing half and half my boyfriend's mother asked if she could make two slices with just cheese. The waitress looked at her like she was crazy and was not friendly in saying no and acted like that would be such a hard thing to do. Now I've never made a pizza before so maybe it really is hard, but it was have been nice to receive and explanation. If I am ever in that area again I will definitely be going back! My mouth is watering just thinking about it! read more

How has this place not been reviewed yet?! This is a travesty. If you've ever eaten here before, you know why I'm reacting this way. This has got to be the best pizza place in College Station/Bryan. Mr. G is there every night and you'll see him peering over the counter watching how much you enjoy his food. (Side note, although the pizzas are delicious, my favorites are actually the calzones.) You'll also see him scowl (and probably say no) if you want to change up any of the pizzas--and you gotta love him for that. Everything is homemade and you'll watch them pull out the dough and make your crust right in front of you. The waitstaff usually isn't great and there tends to be a high turnover in that area (this is a college town, what do you expect?), but with Mr. G there to smooth things over, you'll never have a bad experience there. This is one of my favorite places of all time to go and eat a filling meal. There is always plenty to take home, even when you share. I definitely recommend that you don't try to order anything just for yourself--you'll just be taking home an even larger box than if you'd shared. Support local owners and you'll be rewarded with a great dining experience. read more

Calzones that would make the Sopranos blush. Mr. G and his family have redefined Italian - in ways that often make me wonder how all this Italian flavor could be concentrated in such a small town. Mr. G's Pizzeria is a shining statement to what one man, a dream, and a vision can do when applied correctly. He started with this small downtown Bryan location, and started cranking out pizzas that yet to have a rival anywhere in the United States (with the close second being Grimaldi's in Brooklyn, though that is a bit far away and the ONLY place that comes close to Mr. G's). The one aspect of this place that makes it truly makes it shine is its association with the calzone - I was eating calzones here before Pizza Hut made the name popular. The relationship Mr. G has with the calzone is VERY personal. He will hand prep the calzone himself before handing it to the oven handler. The marinara sauce he uses is a closely gaurded secret - he makes the same sauce for his son's and wife's restaurant (each serving different types of Italian and hitting a different market) by getting up daily at 4:30 and getting them ready. Mr. G is a man of pure simplicity - and he, like his food, is true and authentic. Simple wine selection (you are here for the food) and a dedication to Aggies, his love for the local community comes through in the time he spends to create his masterpieces. The experience is purley local and you can feel the sense of history the place has just when you walk in - this is a place built for one purpose. To eat, to drink, and to be merry. I ate there every week in college, and I make the hour-and-a-half drive as often as possible to go eat and then come back to Houston... BECAUSE IT IS THAT GOOD. Pizzas and calzones are the main stay, try anything else at lesiure, but I haven't had anything beyond the calzones & pizzas, wine and the (extremely and lovingly strong) coffee. One Mr. G's calzone can easily feed three, by the way - and I mean three people with voracious appetities. Fall in love with what great calzones and great pizzas all over again. Also, take time to appreciate Mr. G's portrait on the menu, it is true Italian man machismo in all its glory. read more

Really good pizza and calzones in the BCS area and part of the Bryan Downtown area. I would usually split a regular and meat calzone, which are really large and rich, with my brother and friends. One calzone is enough for 3 or 4 people. Don't expect to get Mr. G to change your ordered calzone though; you're asked not to on the menu. The decor is not the greatest but you come for the good food. Large place and never had to wait for a table. Keep in mind, Mr. G's closes at 9 except on Friday (at 10) and is closed on Sunday. Too long of a drive to find it closed... read more

I recently ordered take-out from Mr. Gs. The waitress who took my order was great. She was very helpful, polite and attentive. I'm not from Texas, but have been warned recently that pizza in Texas was not very good. Mr. Gs was better than I expected. I had the white pizza with anchovies. read more

This was the worst pizza place I've ever been to. It took well over an hour for our food to arrive and what we got was a pitiful runny pizza. I've had Little Caesar's that was better and for a fraction of the price. Definitely not going there again. read more

I love the Mr. G's location in downtown Bryan -- it is quiet and quaint and Mr. G's is definitely the quintessential pizza place. The pizza is amazing and the ranch is just as good (it's made in house, after all). This is the perfect place to go when you need a break from studying or just want a good, hearty meal. The only downside is the atmosphere -- not the greatest. It's pretty standard, noting exceptional. read more

The homemade ranch is delicious! Overall it's a bit pricey but you can tell it's all fresh and worth it to support a local business that's been here forever. read more

Worst restaurant I've ever been to. If I could give this place zero stars I would. The food was okay at best but the service is what earns this place no stars. Waited and hour for food and the waiters were very rude. We asked our waiter for an itemized receipt and a different waitress yelled across the restaurant that she would get us a menu and pen and paper and that we could write our own receipt. We told her this wasn't our job and she proceeded to curse us out across the restaurant. "Do it you f***** self" "Quit being b******" Just a few of the statements made all while the owner was watching this go down. I cannot believe this service and would urge anyone not to take their money elsewhere. read more

Not sure where some of these reviews are coming from, but this is pizza...that's all you can say about it. It's not "good" pizza, it's just pizza. I have not yet had the calzones, but I DID order a large thin crust sausage and green pepper pizza not too terribly long ago and to be honest, I've had better pizza from the freezer section. The green peppers were cut into ultra thin ribbons that were overpowered by the cheese and the pre-cooked sausage was of the 'rabbit turd' variety typically found on a Totino's. I'm a Chicago boy through and through. A south sider to boot. I know pizza, and this ain't it. Central Texas is a pizza wasteland, and Mr. G's isn't about to change that. read more
