East Side Pies is one of those Austin gems that reminds you pizza can be both creative and seriously satisfying. The atmosphere is quirky and laid-back, a perfect match for the East Side neighborhood vibe. The menu is full of inventive combinations, but the spinach pizza stole the show for me. It’s loaded with fresh, vibrant spinach that tastes like it was picked that morning, layered over a tangy tomato sauce and just the right amount of gooey cheese. The balance is spot on—fresh greens meet indulgent, cheesy goodness without either overpowering the other.

The crust is thin and perfectly crisp around the edges while still having that nice chewy bite in the middle. Every slice feels light but still filling, which is a rare and welcome feat for pizza.

Service here is friendly and unpretentious, and my order came out hot and fresh without a long wait. The prices are fair considering the quality of the ingredients, and you can tell there’s real care in how everything is prepared.

The only thing holding this back from a perfect five stars is the limited seating. On busy nights, it can be a challenge to snag a table, but that’s also part of its charm—it’s the kind of pizza you’d happily take to-go and enjoy at a nearby park.

East Side Pies is proof that great pizza doesn’t have to be complicated—just fresh, flavorful, and made with love.

This used to be our go-to pizza place, but it’s gone way downhill. The pizza is now soggy with too much cheese, and the cookies are stale/expired. The staff has an attitude and didn’t refund us for cookies they didn’t have. We gave it one last try after two bad visits, but the pizza was still terrible. The sauce cup was smashed into the pizza, and the receipt was sitting on top of the food. We’ve been coming here for over three years, and the guy who used to work the front and answer calls was always awesome, no idea what happened, but the service isn’t the same. We won’t be back unless the reviews seriously improve.

Stop by this place and ordered a slice of pizza. I was given a burnt pizza so I went back to let the girl at the window know. She goes on to tell me that all the pizza are burnt like that with an attitude. I put the pizza on the counter inside the window and ask for my money back because I am not paying for the pizza. She throws the pizza back out the window and tells me to throw it away for health reasons and that I cannot get a refund. The whole time she had a bad nasty attitude which in return I gave her that same attitude back. She then said she would give me another slice and threw a pizza in the oven and then ask another clown that works there if he could do a refund. He comes to the counter and tries to give me a refund and I check my account and the payment was still pending. I let him know that the money was not refunded and he says he can put another slice in the oven because there is a no refund policy. I ask him for the managers name and phone number and he puts the number on a receipt and scribbles the managers name on the paper. I passed words when him as well. Now the thing that is so funny about the whole ordeal is that while I was standing there waiting for my pizza I notice that the Permit to Operate a Food Enterprise was expired.
You have an unprofessional female working the register and cutting up pizzas without washing her hand after handling the front window with a nasty attitude that pretty much was saying to me “you take that burnt pizza because you aren’t getting your money back and a expired permit! I’ve been to this place many times and never had a problem and the workers have always been professional. This could have got ugly because people are tired of being disrespected! If you don’t like your job or the color of my skin you might wanna find you something else to do! I did receive the refund after speaking with my bank also. Austin has been ruined by people like this and I’m sick of it like everyone else is!
This happened at the Location on Rosewood also.

Ordered pizza with 3 toppings. They forgot to put one of the toppings on. Went back and politely mentioned that the third topping was missing. Staff was annoyed and did not seem happy that I asked. Doesn’t make sense why you’d treat your customers like that.
