Pie, ‘za, slice, pizza, however you slice it, we have a lot of options here in Austin, but I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I had my favorites around town.

“Nationally, New York City is known for a pizza style that resembles an oversized version of Neapolitan pizza: thin, flexible slices—often folded in half while eaten—that are light on cheese and other toppings.”
These are my favorite types of pies, especially the ones from the city, NYC, that is.
So much that I have a slice tattooed on my arm with little apples in place of the pepperonis.

Pedroso’s has many different types of pizzas but the one that stands out to me is their New York Style pie. I prefer it with their fresh mozzarella and small pepperonis.
an atx FYI: they sell slices during lunch so if you miss NYC slices, I suggest hitting them up

Feral Pizza is another one of our epic food truck pizzerias and they are LEGIT. Their pizzas are thin and crispy made with sourdough, finished with garlic oil, pecorino & oregano. They also offer Grandma Style Pies that are thin and chew with sauce on top of the cheese.
an atx FYI: preorder because they sell out quick… sometimes even a day prior!

From Westlake to East Austin, Sammataro has made quite the name for itself. Sir Sammataro, Issac Flores, worked to recreate his fave pies from Brooklyn during the pandemic by building a pizza oven in his own backyard.

By the slice or by the pie, Home Slice is the pizza mecca of South Congress. It’s the best spot to stop while you’re shopping in the SoCo district.
an atx FYI: I prefer their cold cut sandwiches over their pizzas and when their pizza wait is over an hour… the subs are usually ready in 15mins; it’s wonderful. Also, the antipasto is dope.

“…A type of pizza that originated in Naples, Italy. This style of pizza is prepared with simple and fresh ingredients: a basic dough, raw tomatoes, fresh mozzarella cheese, fresh basil, and olive oil. No fancy toppings are allowed!
One of its defining characteristics is that there is often more sauce than cheese. This leaves the middle of the pie wet or soggy and not conducive to being served by the slice. Because of this, Neapolitan pizzas are generally pretty small (about 10 to 12 inches), making them closer to the size of a personal pizza.
Neapolitan pizzas are also cooked at very high temperatures (800 F to 900 F) for no more than 90 seconds.” (SpruceEats)

Natural wine and Neapolitan pizza is what owner Steven Dilley focuses on in Bufalina & Bufalina Due. Using a wood-burning oven running north of 900 degrees for roughly 90 seconds, Bufalina has been on the top of many food lists throughout the years.

Pizza coming from a couple of native New Yorkers, Show Me Pizza has quickly made a mark on the ‘za scene. Opening up in the original Torchy’s Tacos location in 2021, they’ve been very innovative from the start. Show Me literally means show me… as they live stream their oven on Twitch every single day.
An atx FYI: they won ATX FYI’s March Madness Best Pizza in 2022!

From a wood-fired oven in a gas station to now in the old Gourdough Public House/Kerbey Lane location off south Lamar. This will definitely give them more space to cook and especially serve customers. Their sauce is claimed to be based on a 100 year old Naples recipe with everything being made by scratch.

I first experienced pieous when they were out in the west and was absolutely blown away by the pie and their meat plate (don’t forget to try their pastrami as well). This family-owned restaurant makes their wood-fired Neopolitan pizzas from scratch on sourdough crust.
an atx FYI: Pieous still has their dining room closed due to some medical issues with the owner’s family. But they offer great reheating instructions via video to help you after picking it up. They mention they’ll reopen in the future, but let’s give them some grace, given what they’re going through.

Toss makes authentic New York style pies but I think their specialty pies are what truly stand out amongst the other pizza shops in Austin. They serve pies by the half or full 20” pie with hand-tossed, house-made dough.
an atx FYI: Get the wings with half-pie, they’re some of my faves in town

East Side Pies offers really unique types of pies, for example, pies with black bean sauce, chimichurri sauce, pesto sauce, ricotta sauce and more as the base. They also offer the ability to order a half and half pizza, so if they share the same sauce, east side pie will allow you to get both of your fave specialty pies!

ABGB has great standard pies, but their specialty pies stick out to me because not only are they delicious but abgb changes up the specials so you get to try so many unique pies. Their sandwiches are also something you’ve got to try. Grab a pie, a beer, and enjoy the weather in their beer garden.

Another mention of this incredible food truck, Pedroso’s grandma pizza is one of their most popular types of pizza. Pedroso’s likes to make sure their customers know that this is not Sicilian or Detroit Style; they are all square and pan-pizzas but they vary in differences.

This isn’t a local Austin spot, coming originally from Dallas BUT since we don’t have anything else like it, I wanted to give it a highlight. Delucca is a Brazilian-type pizza spot where you pay one price for all-you-can-eat pizza. The servers serve 14 different types of dinner pizzas and four dessert pizzas.
