We’ve been to about 100 pizza joints and this one is in the top 2! Excellent service. Friendly staff. Dogs allowed inside and patio. The pizza is outstanding. Perfectly proportioned between crust and toppings. I could taste every single item on my pizza! I got the Meat Head. Hubby got a Hot Honey Pepperoni 🍕 and 💥 bam it hits the mark! Absolutely amazing food. Delicious cocktails and it’s a place you wanna hang out in. Thanks y’all 🤩 Tony, Karen, Finn and Rail 🐾🐾

We stopped in for a quick dinner. We ordered the Greek salad and Hot Honey Pepperoni pizza. Both were good but could have used minor tweaks to be great. Would recommend!

I don’t know how this place has such great reviews. The customer service is some of the worst I’ve experienced in all my traveling. The hostess had to be the most unsociable woman ever, the bar tenders were so so, and after almost 2 hours we were invested to stay and try the pizza, it was good but not great. They care more about getting the to-go orders out the door than filling the tables that are open to the customers that come to the restaurant.

Sometimes it's not about the food. I have had bad service, poor service and meh service. This is the first time I've had NO service. First off when we entered I went to what I thought was the hostess counter to be treated with a blank state and a "women" who just pointed and rolled "her" eyes at me when I asked to be added to the wait list. "She" so graciously pointed to the real hostess with a grunt and another eye roll. The real hostess informed us it would be twenty or so minutes. We waited just shy of one hour for our table asking multiple times if we were overlooked. The answer was always "about another five minutes".
There were multiple large party tables inside and out open that they refused to sit people at. Those tables were never used during our visit. I don't even remember if the food was good or bad. But I can for sure tell you the service was the worst and I believe it is due to poor management. There is no way a properly managed popular restaurant would run that poorly.

Nice, quaint pizza & brewery. Don't let the outside fool you, it's way bigger on the inside. Got the beer flight and a pizza. Crust could've been a little crispier but great flavor. Pepperonis weren't greasy. Yea! Great selection of brews. Michelle was an awesome server. Definitely will return!

Dietary restrictions: They have GF options.

Parking: You can street park for free on Sundays.

My son and I have eaten at SQZBX several times since moving to HS. Friday I was so disappointed. We had waited half an hour for a table and I asked to go ahead and order "to go". A table came available as I was paying and I said "oh we can just sit there and eat the pizza I just ordered!" but the hostess said they couldn't seat us there because it was just my son and I and the table that had come available was only for larger parties. I was shocked. We were next on the list and no one had even been on the wait list behind us until I paid for our pizzas. The manager was summoned to issue my refund because I just couldn't let my money go to a restaurant that lacks logical, friendly, customer service. I told her how disappointed I was and that we had been weekly customers since moving here and she just smiled and said "It is our policy." They should really look into fine tuning their policy and making it a little more genial. It would have gone a long way to have been treated with kindness and understanding.

My partner loves this place. It's one of our favorite local pizza places! He likes the meat head and wide load. I had the hot honey pepperoni, and it was amazing!

Really cute pizza place with amazing gluten free menu/accommodations. Our table tried 3 GF pizzas (Margarita, Hot Honey, and Pineapple w/Jalepeño) and the GF veggie sandwich (added chicken). We also enjoyed the pepperoni cups as appetizer and the wine offered went well with the meal. Service wasn't super fast, but very friendly.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free menu! And vegan options!

Won’t be back service always sucks never get refills until after we have to ask another server and that’s after we find one. There is always hair on our pizza since apparently they don’t go by rules for restaurants that you either have a hat on or a hair net on. No one in the kitchen has either on. Brought half our pizza home and there was atleast four hairs on half of it!! No telling how many we eat. Such a gross thought. Won’t be back.

Passing through town for one night and see the “good” reviews on this place and order ahead. How hard can it be to mess up a chicken Caesar salad?? First no chicken and she says oh I didn’t get that and offers to add some for $3 more to the $15.60 tiny salad, see photos ? I’m guessing they have their employees put fake reviews because I did not get good food. They advertise fresh grated Parmesan and I’m quite sure this is not, what little there is of it and the “house made” dressing tastes like watered down bottle variety and not the good kind. She asked if I need utensils and I said yes a fork please and she gives me a prison spork what the hell! With the prices being charged you’d think they could at least get real plastic forks. The $11 garlic knots are over cooked and has the cheese all clumped in the middle. All this for a mere $30 dollars??‍♀️ I would definitely give this place a hard pass

Everything about the place was really good. We asked for olive oil to dribble over the pizza and they willingly provided it. Loved their restrooms too and the concept of handing over a card if it needed attention.

Very different and unique compared to the other pizza places in Hot Springs. We went late at night and everything was fresh and full of flavor. The waitress was awesome and took care of us well.
