Jersey vegan girl who recently moved to Austin here! I love getting a little "slice" of home…read morewhenever I'm craving good vegan pizza, and Home Slice always comes through. Their Vegan Slice has spinach, tomato, mushrooms, and vegan cheese. It's crispy, flavorful, and almost doesn't taste vegan. We've only ordered takeout, so I can't really speak to the full dining experience, but for takeout you can order at the counter inside or at the window outside, then find a seat and they'll call your name and bring the pizza out to you. It's a very efficient process and usually moves pretty quickly. Parking can be a bit annoying, but we've gotten lucky finding a spot in the lot a few times. I obviously can't speak to the non-vegan pizza, but my partner enjoys his slices every time we go. It would be great if they added another vegan option down the line, but even if they don't, I'll keep coming back. The location on South Congress is super convenient. Highly recommend!

Well worth getting their hot honey if that's your thing. The homemade garlic butter is fantastic! For dessert go ahead and treat yourself to one of their Canolis. Can't wait to come back and try something else next time. Daisy at the front gave an amazing recommendation and service, thank you!

Over Eats delivery for dinner last night. NY Style cheese pizza with sausage, 5 meatballs, chopped…read moresalad, and pistachio cannoli. Overall solid dinner, nice packaging, and decent price for Austin. The great: Cannoli large, firm, but too hard of a shell, tasty chocolate chips on the ends, and fresh tasting stuffing - creamy and delicious. And, great value! The very good: Meatball. Nice size, pork and beef (I think), tasty red sauce. Quite Italian. Good value. The good, but: Chopped salad. Good size, a lot of meat, balsamic was tasty, good cheese, but not a legit chopped salad. Real chopped salad- go to Tony Cs. Pizza - Tasted fine, but too doughy for legit NY style pizza (and, I grew up in NY and get there 2-3x a year). Skimpy on the sausage, but excellent flavor/tasty. Would I order from here again. Probably not, as the non-pizza options are limited and the pizza was just okay.

Amazing wood-burning oven pizza…read more Venue: order and pick up style. Few small tables. Service: not a full service type of place as you order and pick up but everyone here were very friendly. All I can say is "wow" - what a craft pizza. The dough was perfect - crispy outside and chewy. I got hot honey pepperoni which I thought I was being bold ordering something unusual but I had a taste profile in my head which will go and uniquely and I am so glad I ordered it because it was beyond my expectations of how delicious hot honey pepperoni pizza. It was perfectly Sweet and salty. Margarita pizza was amazing too- perfect portions which rich in flavor. I'm glad we stopped by here while we are in DT Austin. Highly recommend to stop by for an amazing pie! Price: reasonable

My daughter wanted to try stuffed crust pizza, and instead of ordering from Domino's, we decided to…read moregive Desano Pizzeria a try. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with such positive energy and a warm welcome, which made for a great first impression. I really liked their lunch special, which includes a personal-sized pizza. It was the perfect option since everyone could customize their own pizza with the toppings they wanted. My daughter ordered the stuffed crust pizza, which is filled with ricotta cheese. It was her first time trying ricotta, and unfortunately, it wasn't her favorite. I built my own pizza with Italian sausage, onions, and fresh basil, and I highly recommend adding the garlic butter, it was the perfect finishing touch and added so much flavor. Overall, the pizza was good, and the friendly service made the experience even better. While it wasn't quite the style of pizza I'd personally rave about, I can absolutely see why so many people enjoy it. If you're visiting Austin and looking for authentic Neapolitan-style pizza, Desano is definitely worth trying.

The price might give you a little sticker shock at first, but it was absolutely worth it. The sandwich was massive and easily fed both my son and me. He ate about 3/4 of it and I still walked away full after eating my portion. Photographic evidence of bar dining, casual dining, outside seating and dine in options. Easy 5 stars again.

My friend moved to the North Loop recently, so we had to check out this location of Home Slice…read morePizza! Lovely outdoor patio area with misters containing a turfed play area for kids. As a mom of two littles, I really appreciate family friendly restaurants with built in entertainment for the kiddos! Indoors is a different vibe - dark and moody with funky art and decor. We had to wait 30 mins for a table on a Thursday night, but put our names down and grabbed drinks from the bar which offers an extensive wine, beer and cocktail list. Once we got our table we were ravenous. We tried the Sicilian pepperoni pizza, a pan style. Pizza came out piping hot and fresh - flavors were on point! Absolutely delicious. Worth the long wait. Service was slow and spotty - we never got our water refilled, she never came around to check on us or ask if we wanted another round of drinks. After bringing out our pizza we never saw her again. There is also no signal in this restaurant, so make sure you sign into their wifi upon arrival if you need access to texts/calls. A solid experience overall, but service could certainly be better.

I came in and grabbed a beer at the bar and worked on my laptop while I waited for my buddy to join. Even though it was a busy week night, there was still plenty of seating. Every single employee is incredibly friendly and seems like they truly care about the work they do. We ordered a pizza, salad, and Italian sub. The pizza and salad were fantastic as always. I probably wouldn't order the sub again but that won't change my love for this place.

Pinthouse is an Austin classic with good pizza and beer. This South Lamar location has more space…read morethan others, so we came here with a group of around 36 people. We waited maybe 20 minutes to order then another 45 minutes for food, which wasn't that bad for a busy Friday night. We were crowded outside, and we didn't really have enough table or chair space. That's to be expected when we descended upon the restaurant with such a large group. For six people, we ordered three pizzas to share. We definitely could have shared with more people because we had some pizza left over. We got The Works, Shroomin' Goat, and Texas Chicken Ranch pizzas. The Texas Chicken Ranch was by far our favourite. It was really good, while the other two were alright. The crust was weirdly bubbly and amorphous looking. There was a lot of crust. The Works was okay. The sauce and meat weren't particularly tasty. The Shroomin' Goat was a vegetarian pizza with a lot of arugula, which is not my type of pizza, but our vegetarian friend said it was okay. Great vibes at Pinthouse overall though, and I have enjoyed their other pizzas in the past.

Shout out to La Volta for 1) the fantastic Bolo Pasta (rigatoni with a great Bolognese sauce) and…read more2) the bartender and a server last Thursday night (1/8/26). I'd just flown from the West Coast and things had gotten delayed. When I finally dropped my bags at the B&B and found La Volta, I walked in and asked for something to go. The bartender suggested pasta, which sounded fine. By the time I crossed the street to buy a bottle of wine and got back, my pasta was waiting. I asked for a plastic fork. Server said they didn't have any. Apparently, the clientele mostly eats there. The bartender again intervened and affirmed what the server said. I must have looked tired and desperate. He gave me a regular metal fork that I promised to return the next day. They sent me off with friendly smiles and the dinner I so needed. The pasta was well beyond my expectations and truly revived my tired body. I hope to return in the future and eat in. And Volta employees, I hope that Bryan, owner of La Brava, got your fork back the next evening when I had moved on.

Great slice shop! Had no idea this tucked away window counter service pizza would be in the area,…read morebut after Mayfield Park, saw this and stopped in for lunch on Father's Day. They have an indoor area where you can grab drinks but just pull up to the window and get what you want. What I really like about it is buying by the slice is about the same as if you would buy a whole pie, so it makes it easy to mix and match and try a bunch of uniquely topped pies. The slices are huge, so 2 is easily plenty. Arguably you can be fine with one. I highly recommend the cacio e pepe, a playful take on the classic Roman pasta, but you can think of it as a white pie with some tingling black pepper. Sausage pizza is also great, though a bit on the wetter side with all the honey. Plain pepperoni really highlights the expert simplicity of a classic pie - the crust really shines and the pepperoni is top tier. Cheese is fine. Stracciatella is kinda like a margherita slice with a thick dollop of fresh dairy, but it adds a bit too much water to the pie to stay crisp. Corn pizza was the summer special and while it was interestingly spicy and sweet from the corn, would say it was far and away the least favorite from our crew. Make sure you grab some hot honey and ranch for the crust! Also don't sleep on the caesar salad. It is very well dressed and has a nice combo of crunch from the shallots and freshness from the lettuce. You won't notice the miso but it adds umami punch (instead of the anchovies that normally are used presuambly).

We had a pizza dinner on Saturday before going up to mt bonnell…read more We came at 530 hoping we would beat the dinner crowd but it seemed We came at the peak of it. We waited about 30 mins to place our order abd it took about an hr to receive it. It was a quick easy method to play your order at the booth. Everything is self serve. It was quite hot outside and seats are limited for the indoor a.c at the adjoining bar. The pizza was great when it did come. The pepp and pep was my fave but my husband loved the cheese. I will say the most disappointing thing was the water. We always find it perplexing when a restaurant served seemingly high quality food but provides trash unfiltered water. It makes us really then question the quality of the food.

My husband and I decided to return to Pieous to eat some pizza. We went for a later lunch and got…read morethere at 1:30. We parked easily and walked in. We were able to order right away. We paid, got the buzzer for the table, and picked where we wanted to sit with no issues as there weren't very many people there because it was after the lunch rush. My husband ordered the Pepperoni Pizza and I ordered the Fat Queen. The Pepperoni Pizza was good. The Pepperonis were small and tasty. The Fat Queen was just as good. It comes with Pepperoni, Soppressata, and Italian Sausage. I really liked the flavor of all of the meat in the marinara sauce plus the pizza crust is light and fluffy. Overall Pieous is a great place to get some good pizza. The service and pizza were good. I suggest going at an off time that isn't the typical lunch or dinner time.

Make note of their hours as well because they are closed in middle of day. 4-8pm I'm the afternoon does not give a big window to choose your dining time. But the restaurant checks all the boxes. Great ambience. Fun indoor and outdoor seating. Tasty food. Big outdoor space for little ones to play. Convenient location. Decent pricing. The salads are served on big trays which makes sharing easy (even when I didn't really want to share my yummy tossed salad with toasted garbanzo beans and Chunks of fresh mozzarella and a super yummy dressing. The pasta and pizza tasted really good. From an owner of a few pizza places in Houston, I was disappointed in the crispness of the dough. I don't care for pizza that can hold its shape when being held. But if I just told myself it was bread instead- I enjoyed it. It was really the pasta and salad for me. We didn't try too much because we were actually surprised it was open. Many friends mentioned the desserts were to die for. Even Guy on DDD mentioned the caramel rolls were what cinnamon rolls wish they could be. He also LOVED the pastrami sandwiches. So I'd i could do a 1-10 scale I'd give it a 9 for the extra work we had to put in to align with their limited open hours and for the soggy crust. But highest marks on the rest. They also have a room you can rent out in the back or the restaurant and good parking. Next time you want pie- Give pieous a try
