Fantastic place for an intimate dinner. The tables were pretty close together which draws your attention away from your own if there are any distractions, otherwise great food and atmosphere.

Let me start by saying I wanted to so badly give this 5 stars and was so close to doing so. The start of our dining experience was great. The appetizers were fantastic. However, we waited probably 30 plus minutes for our single 12’ inch pizza… all the while a table of 8 who sat after we finished our apps got 2 pizzas way before us-after we already ordered ours 15 minutes prior. They never came by to give us a status or anything almost like they forgot about us. There was no acknowledgment of error or apology. Plus the fact our pizza was semi undercooked which was a bummer. Overall the food is good and I think it was a unique bad experience that most have not had here. Good food and atmosphere but was met with bad service on the second half of the dining experience.

Our first stop in Austin and we loved the atmosphere and server we had. He recommended some great local venues and was nice to chat with. The Margherita pizza was very good (4.5 stars), but I should have ordered 2 of them!

We were surprised at how few menu choices there were. There are some old pics on here of the menu that made us think there were more choices. Pizza was good, very small tight space so I hope you like strangers!

It's a cute little spot that gets a little crowded when full. Makes for a tight fit but the pizza here doesn't disappoint. The wine is a little high price at $15 a glass, but they do have a beer option that came out 2/$12 so we opted for that while we waited on our pepperoni pizza option. When I tell you this is a gourmet pizza, I'm 100% serious. The smoky crust from the pizza oven is amazing, the housemade sauce is delicious, the pepperoni isn't that processed meat in a bag, the cheese is real. Every bit of this experience was delicious!

Best pizza in Austin! Always felt welcomed. One block away from 6th st. Only complaint is I wish they were open late night but can’t win everything! Fennel sausage pizza is my go to, phenomenal sausage and pizza dough is top notch crispy and
