Tony’s South Austin Pizza

We love Tony’s! Their pizza is tasty. Mediterranean and golden pepperoni are my favorite, but we’ve never had a bad pizza. Their salad is delish. Greek salad is my favorite. It’s my version of «healthy» when hubby wants pizza. Their pepperoni rolls are amazing… not so healthy but totally worth it. We have never waited more than one hour for takeout.

When my family and I moved to Austin this past summer, Tony’s was our go to delivery. Within only a few months, this place has gone down hill. The dough is not always cooked long enough and some of the quality ingredients once used are now either used more sparingly or have been substituted with noticable inferior selections. The nail in the coffin was a delivery time of over 2 hours last night. After letting them know my frustration, they offered me a 50% refund in which I did not take because I did not feel comfortable giving my credit card information over the phone again due to my complaint. We will NEVER order from Tony’s south Austin again.

I called ahead to pick up my order from their new trailer location, gave them about an hour’s notice. My food was hot and fresh, they knew I was coming around 7:20pm and so I did not have to wait at all. They were actually pulling one of my pizzas out of the oven when I arrived. The guy who took my order on the phone was very nice, very patient explaining to me the actual location (because I am terrible with directions and Siri is a turd sometimes). Being on 1626 made it easy to drive there, not much traffic.
We ordered a Maui pizza, a supreme pizza, and a pepperoni calzone. The trifecta made my car smell AMAZING and it was hard not to reach over and snag a slice while I was driving (but I didn’t because that’s obviously unsafe). I really liked the bell peppers and onions on the Maui, they were cooked nicely. Usually I just think of Hawaiian pizza as simply pineapple and Canadian bacon, but their version was much better than the typical boring Hawaiian. The supreme was loaded with toppings, definitely did not get cheated there. The calzone was okay, but that is just due to me being boring and only wanting pepperoni and cheese. They have like 20 different fillings (you can pick three for the calzone) and I only wanted pepperoni, so that’s on me for being lame. I’m sure if I had branched out, it would have been even better.
Their whole menu looks delicious, I’m going to try the pizza rolls next time. Or their meatball sub. Probably the Fiesta pizza too, it’s hard to find a good «taco pizza» around here. Actually everything on their menu sounds good right now because I’m hungry.
P. S. if you have a problem waiting for pizza to be delivered to you, then go get it yourself. It’s definitely worth the drive, and I definitely would recommend.

If you like waiting WELL OVER two hours for delivery, and getting ice cold food, then yeah! Otherwise, no.
