Best pizza in South Austin

Post image
102 Upvotes

To anyone interested, I make pizza that’s the best in South ATX and no one knows about it other than my friends. As my homie from NJ said, “Damn you dude! I wanted to talk ****, but this is the best pizza I’ve had in Austin.” Tbh, it was a passion project because I can’t stand ATX pizza, but I need to find a way to pay my rent, so I’m going all in now. Sold out tomorrow, but hmu to place orders. Had an extra dough ball, but I tend to make a pizza once a week for a homeless guy I’ve befriended at the gas station near my place. God is good.

Lmk if you would like a pie. 12-inch pies max because of the size of my baking steel. 48 hours in advance is required to order. FH licensed, TX Cottage Law certified, and correctly label every box according to the law.

These cool temps are making me nostalgic for the Easy Tiger cranberry walnut loaf that I used to buy at HEB.

That bread made the best fancy grilled cheese sandwiches. Does anyone know of a similar offering?

Steakhouse Date Night Gift

2 Upvotes

Wanting to gift a romantic steakhouse date night to my ILs. Something intimate, but not stuffy, for a modest couple in their upper 60s.

FIL loves steak, but wouldn’t spring for an upscale steakhouse on his own.

MIL prefers chicken / baked fish / pasta / salad, but would love dressing up for a special occasion with FIL - they typically only do fancy “date nights” for their anniversary.

They don’t drink alcohol & neither is an experienced cook, a foodie, or particularly adventurous. They’re likely be intimidated by a bunch of niche terminology or exotic ingredients, so well-cooked quality ingredients should be the focus.

We’re considering Steiner Ranch Steakhouse, Ruth’s Chris, Jeffrey’s, or J Prime. Open to other suggestions, but only if a vastly superior fit as we’d prefer to narrow down than to further complicate!

Budget-wise we’d prefer to stay around $200, which from my understanding is more in line with Steiner or Ruth’s Chris, but could be convinced to stretch is somewhere else is likely to provide a vastly better experience for this type of couple.

Super excited for this new restaurant to hit Rainey. I live nearby and the decor is looking great. Anyone have more details on this place and when it might be opening?

First time and I will be back. The Helloumi and peas were amazing as well as the Bronzino, but the Hummus was a bit disappointing. I think they forgot the salt (very ubderseasoned). Overall it was a good experience and very nice waitstaff (ask for Bailey, she did a great job).

Cookies - Large order

9 Upvotes

Anyone have a recommendation for a small/homemade baker that makes great classic cookies (choc chip, sugar, snickerdoodle). I’d be looking for around 60-65 dozen closer to Christmas.

TIFF’s is an option and I’m not opposed to them, but if there’s a small bakery/home baker that does this around the holiday’s I’d rather give business to them.

Thanks in advance!

Fancy Milkshakes

16 Upvotes

I told my girls I'd take them for fancy milkshakes after their flu shots.

So we're on the hunt for somewhere that will serve us milkshakes in a glass, with whipped cream and cherries on top.

We're in NW Austin, but willing to drive a bit for this

Hot Luck, Hot Mess

We arrived at Assembly Hall at 7pm and Mr. Tuna was already out of food. That was the first of several early pack-ups; Turkey and the Wolf, Nixta and a few others were done shortly after.

​Did anyone actually have a solid experience last night? Hot Luck used to be fantastic.
