[[HIGHLIGHT]]A casual spot with a standout menu, Dovetail is a great mix of approachable atmosphere with fantastic presentation and service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Very easy to split based on portion size, and the lunch prices and happy hour deals are definitely something to look into. This is some of my favorite pizza in Austin (on par with Homeslice and Via 313) and a sure spot to bring visitors back to. read more

Dovetail does a mean pie! Did you know they have gluten-free options? Yep, it's true. Did you know their dough is naturally fermented? Yep, it's true. Did you know they only use fresh, locally-sourced ingredients? Yep, it's true. That pizza sauce packs some incredible flavors. Bursting with the taste of freshness. The tomato is incredible. We love grabbing a pie with pepperoni, Yum!! read more

Always sooooo good with great service! It comes out fast and is a great price. We never have to wait for a table read more

Went to Dovetail on a Friday at 7:15pm expecting a mad house but was pleasantly surprised that it was only mildly busy. We sat at the bar where we had the most friendliest bartender (a blonde, I think her name was Leigh Ann). She was so nice!! She let me sample all the red wines to figure out which one I wanted, which was totally unnecessary but I REALLY appreciated it. We ordered a pepperoni & mushroom pizza and loved it. We especially love the chimichurri sauce they give you. Great little spot for date night, and plenty of parking. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The barely negative thing I noticed was at one point it got very hot inside the restaurant, but it got better eventually.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We will definitely be back. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Good vibes, very chill, attentive service, and pizza isn't overpriced.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] PARKING IS FREE, just go inside and the valet kiosk is inside. And for Austin to have parking? so nice. It was a group of 7 with kids, and the pizzas came out quick. Flavors aren't aren't as typical as you'd expect based on the titles. read more

4.3 stars. I really loved the pizza - pepperoni and they use a sourdough crust which really works well. What's more impressive to me is they get the sauce and cheese mixture right. Not only was the pizza fantastic, the leftovers were amazing. Tried the spaghetti and meatball and was really underwhelmed by the meatball. maybe that's the jersey in me. I've heard they have good salads so maybe next time I will try the salad. But i can't wait to go back and get more pizza. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great vibe and decor here too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would highly recommend and might take some family here that are coming to visit soon, but not 100%. But the pizza will be something I mention in those "best pizza places in Austin" convos. read more

In a few words this place has the BEST pizza in Austin. Bufawho? Little Delwhat? Sorry I can't remember because those places that also sell pizza are so easy to forget when you've tried what I argue is the TOP TIER most DELICIOUS crust out of anywhere in town. Criteria for outstanding crust is that it holds up and doesn't just flop over when you pick it up without having to fold it. It isn't overly dense like a bagel or greasy. The pizza has a light and crisp airiness about it with the perfect chew but not so filling that you can only have a slice or two and isn't so thin that it crumbles like a cracker when you bite it either. Every time I come here I'm angry that I don't come more often after I take the first bite of pizza. I always wonder why I waste my time anywhere else for any other pizza and then I proceed to forget any dietary goals I have and devour half of an entire pizza on my own. In this case I will say I personally stick to good ol' pepperoni pizza because it's just done so well. This is coming from a person who purposely avoids red pies cause of heartburn and usually gets white based sauce on pizzas that are usually consisting of veggies. But when I'm here pepperoni pizza drizzled with their HOT honey is for lack of better words stupid good. It's (how doesn't this get into a debate more often) incredibly good crust. The service is always pleasant and easy going the staff is fun and friendly and the drinks are actually also really good. They have pasta that my kids also seem to really enjoy when they aren't wanting pizza ( insane right). [[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside is on the smaller side with outside seating available but it surprisingly doesn't feel crowded or too loud when packed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Like many restaurants in the area that do have their own parking it is very tight and limited but not impossible to find something especially if you have a larger SUV. We had to park on W Mary St across the street but probably better off for an easy exit. read more

Dovetail Pizza has quickly become one of our go to date night spots. The pizza is on point, perfectly charred crust, a balanced sauce, and toppings that actually taste fresh instead of thrown on as an afterthought. The fresh mozz pizza is a standout on its own, but do yourself a favor and add the sausage, it takes the whole thing up a notch. However, the real star of the show is the burrata. Creamy, decadent, and makes you wonder why every restaurant doesn't treat their burrata with this much respect. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe is relaxed but polished.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Austin's got no shortage of pizza joints, but Dovetail is setting the bar. read more

I was really excited about this place! We shared the prime rib pizza which was phenomenal. However I might have enjoyed short rib on there with the glazed onions a bit more. We also ordered the Brussels sprouts which had an artichoke aioli and this was my favorite. All the flavors are so rich and compliment the Brussels sprouts. I've had a lot of different pizza places in austin, I would like to come back and try the pepperoni pizza. read more

Real anchovie paste in the caesar... *chefs kiss* Ask for a side of anchovies too if you're feeling zesty. They're bright and seem pickled(?) so good. Fried olives are fire. Frank Rodrigues hooked us up with the BEST recommendations. He tipped us off to the mezcal marg and gluten free supreme pizza which were both amazing. I like that the marg is not sweet.

Delicious! My vieja and I walked in and were promptly greeted and seated (I'm a poet and don't know it). We opted for the Bittersweet (I always think of big head Todd as opposed to bittersweet symphony) and fried aceitunas. All of the food was deliciously cooked, the atmosphere was quiet but lively, and I got to ogle the hottie sitting across from me. What's not to love? read more

Food was ok. I expected it to be better. The photos posted from how it tasted were not good! Service was great from the host to the server. Caesar salad was ok. Not enough green romaine it had a lot of the yellow romaine it wasn't fresh enough specially when it's $16. It was enough to share with someone. I wanted pasta but the pizza looked great so we ordered the fresh mozz. It was ok. I felt like it was all thin pizza barely any sauce or mozzarella. Not much flavor. I was expecting it to be cheesy. I don't recommend their pizza. I won't be back sorry! read more

Great food & staff! Came here solo and I was blown away with the service!

Can't wait to be back to try the pizza in house! read more

Dovetail is THE best pizza I've had in Austin. Can easily clear a whole pan to myself, and it's worth every bite. The crust is buttery and crisp, cheese is bubbling when they set it in front of you, and the pepperoni is meaty and salty. The chew is great, and the sauce makes me want to sing. Also the buffalo wings are some of the best I've ever had. They're worth burning the roof of my mouth for, and make the perfect appetizer to the DELICIOUS pizza. I make a visit to Dovetail anytime I'm in Austin read more

We arrived for lunch ravenous right at open at 11am. They are definitely quieter during the lunch hour because nobody else sat down while we were there! The interior is still cute and we didn't mind. We ordered 2 single serving pizzas and it was the perfect size for two. We got the fresh mozzarella pizza and the pepperoni. Both were delightful! I enjoyed the cheese and pepperoni one so much. Probably more than the fresh mozzarella, but both were great nonetheless. I will attempt to come back here the next time I'm in ATX as this pizza is worth it. read more

I came by here tonight for the first time. We loved the food so much. We got the shrimp alfredo and the pepperoni pizza. Both were insane- I also love the added touch of the chili oil and the other oil at the table. Unfortunately our service wasn't the best. At one point it had been 30 min since we had our server come over despite trying to make contact with him. The other server was very kind and ended up helping us. When our server came over I ordered the swirl soft serve with chocolate chips and when it came it was just chocolate ice cream with sprinkles. At that point I didn't want to complain- I just wanted to grab the check. Again- the server was kind- just not attentive. The other servers were also very sweet. The food was amazing and I hope to have a better experience next time. read more

The pizza had a good crispy crust with a nice wood-fired texture, but some of the toppings felt unevenly balanced. A few slices were overloaded with sauce while others tasted a little dry, and the cheese didn't always blend well with the rest of the flavors. read more

Wow! The food portions are surprisingly big. It was my first time seeing oval pizza cut like that but it works! I was able to finish whole slices. The pizza is large so I recommend sharing among 3-4 people. Although I love meat, the Cacio e Pepe stood out to me more than the meat pizza, and I loved the flavors. The meat pizza was a bit salty for me. Bolognese and chicken parm are ok, nothing special to me. Tables are kind of small so it doesn't seem to be a place for a large party. The servers are really friendly and explain what the dishes are. There is even chili oil and garlic chimichurri sauces on the table that you can add to your pastas or pizza. Dovetail has its own parking lot, which is always a plus! read more

Solid Italian restaurant! Both their pizza and pasta are good. I would say 2 pizzas are enough to feed 3 people, they're a good sized oval portion for the price. Both the meat pizza and the cacio e pepe pizzas were enjoyable. I actually really loved the chimichurri sauce that they provide at the table, and the chili oil is also similarly good. It was a unique touch to an Italian spot, I suppose it could be added to either the pizza or the pasta. Service was very attentive and came by our table to fill waters and check on us often. They even boxed our leftover pizza up for us in the back. There is a small parking lot to the side/behind the restaurant but it was almost full when I went. read more

Went in for an offline offer, I'm glad that I did! Great location with lots of free parking next to the restaurant. We visited on a Thursday night and it's not super busy. Good service and great pricing. We ordered 2 pizza and one pasta and the portion is much bigger than we thought. Pizzas are really cheesy, I have never had Cacio e Pepe on a pizza and it tastes pretty good! Bolognese is delicious, couldn't go wrong it. I would recommend it if you are in the area! read more

Been holding this review since this is one of my hidden gems. It is too good for me to hide it any longer. Down in South Austin you will find a perfectly cooked pizza with an odd shape.

We stopped by Dovetail on a Saturday evening around 7pm and were pleasantly surprised to find seating without any hassle. The atmosphere was on point. The music matched the space, the energy was relaxed, and it felt like the kind of place where you can actually have a conversation without shouting. We ordered the pepperoni pizza and buffalo wings and both were incredible. But what really took the experience to the next level was the service. Our server DJ was easily one of the best parts of the night. She was attentive, warm, and genuinely made us feel welcome. Her recommendations were on point, she checked in at just the right times, and she introduced us to their lineup of house made sauces. DJ's personality brings serious value to the place. Give her a raise. Seriously. The chimichurri and chili oil were both solid, but the ricotta ranch was the star. Creamy, tangy, and honestly addictive. If you're getting wings or pizza, that sauce is a must. No complaints at all. Great food, great energy, and standout service. We will definitely be back for the meat pizza next time. Sorry I did not get a good picture of the pizza, guess you will just have to see it for yourself. read more

Fried olives. Why hasn't this always been a thing? Better yet, why didn't I think of it?? These are perfect little poppers. A bit of crunch with the salty brininess of the olives and a pop of whatever delicious dipping sauce they served with it. Amazing. We ordered the bittersweet pizza with pepperoni. And for a kale hater, I might be a new convert. The combination was delicious. The crust could've been a little crisper, but I'm not knocking points off because it was really great. The service was wonderful! Definitely a place to keep on my Austin go-to list. read more

This is not my favorite spot to get pizza (there are SO many options in Austin). It's a cute spot and service is very good. I also really appreciate that they have vegan cheese and a vegan pizza option (the Bittersweet with vegan cheese). It was fine, but just not nearly as good as other spots. I'm also just not a fan at the way they slice their pizzas-bizarre honestly! I tried a mezcal cocktail and it was also fine, but not great. Totally solid place, but average in my eyes. read more

So, for starters the order ran 20min late after I was told it was ready. Both hosts were avoidant and acted annoyed just by someone walking in, mind you it was dead, it's always dead and now we know why. The food is TERRIBLE. Save yourself so much money and order from a chain. We ordered a Cesar salad, the fried shrimp Alfredo and a mozzarella tomato pizza. The cesar salad had mushrooms in it which is fine, I mean luckily we like mushrooms, but it's a sad attempt of something special, what little amount of shrooms they added they were better off just doing without. The fried shrimp Alfredo was awful, they boxed it with paper in the bottom? I think they maybe added truffle to the Alfredo sauce, I don't know but it doesn't work. The worst part of it all was the pizza. The wrong type of tomatoes, the cut was awful, long weird sized slices, it was giving way too sweet, maybe the balsamic they used? and the flavor profile was terrible all around on every single dish. I DO NOT recommend. Spend your money ANYWHERE ELSE!!!! I will no longer wonder why this place is never busy. Extremely overpriced and very under tasted. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance would've had a tiny chance and the lack of hospitality wouldn't have even mattered so much if the food was even a little decent but Austin has infinite options and like I said anything is better than this place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Olive Garden hits harder on a Thursday night. Made me very sad, the first two times we ate there was great and food was good but tonight was unacceptable. As someone 15+ yrs in the food and Bev industry this was awful. Maybe they should only offer dine in and if they do the staff needs training on hospitality. Very disappointing experience tonight. read more

Three of us ended up here while waiting for a flat tire repair; it was very random. We had the lunch portions of Dovetail pizza, ribeye pizza, and chicken parm sandwich. We each found our dish to be flavorful and fairly priced. The ribeye on the pizza was very thinly sliced (+) but was mostly fat (-) and the great flavor profile could not overcome the unappealing mouth feel and "gross" feeling. Still, we all said we would return for both in-store and take out pizza and sandwiches. Two ordered sweet tea, but one sent it back for cola because it was not sweet as expected. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was very clean and aesthetically pleasing, and parking was free and easy to access (mid-day on Thursday.)[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The server (too bad name wasn't on receipt) was welcoming and attentive without being intrusive, and we appreciated him. All 3 of us highly recommend this place and while we live 90m away, we are in the area for the airport regularly and agree that this is a great go-to both before and after flights. Well done, folks! read more

Great place! Our plate our family stopped by to have a fast dinner. We started with delicious fried castlevetrano olives along with a chopped kale salad. We had a ribeye, thin, sliced meat pizza with caramelized onions that was excellent. They sneaked in a few super hot red pepper slices! We also had a bittersweet which included kale Eggplant and thin slices of very hot red pepper. on a thin crust. This was excellent. we also had a delicious chicken parmigiana. Our server was excellent. The place was crowded, but we only waited a few minutes. An excellent time for all of us! read more

We came for early dinner at 5 PM. It was pretty empty so great time to come if you don't wanna wait in line. The ambiance is very open and bright. Great service and our waiter gave a great recommendation on the prime rib pizza For food, we had the fried Olives with a ricotta dipping sauce and the Prime rib pizza. If you add chili crisps and chimichurri sauce, it's tastes great. The crust was light and crispy which made it seem like it was a little healthier which is good.
