The Backspace Reviews
My 7 year old loved it! We had the pepperoni , fennel and sausage pizza and the spaghetti and meatballs. He said it was the best food he’d ever had…and he is a picky eater!
Perfectly seasoned veggies and delicious gluten-free shrimp pesto, and gf pizza. Service is often great. Great happy hour too.
Dietary restrictions: Gf pasta and pizza crust
I'm from NY, Austin is a desert for good Italian food...I'm happy to say I located an oasis. The food here is very good, it tasted like Italian from NY. The marinara is excellent. I had chicken parmesan, the chicken was tender, the noodles were fresh. Yum... I plan to return to try their pizza in a few days. oh, and the best thing is that it's near my home.
