    Inside's pretty basic, they definitely lean towards takeout,
    Michael B.

    TLDR: As most of the reviews below state, this is 'pretty good' pizza. Definite standout from the sea of pizza chains, but it's a pricey alternative. Placed a medium mushroom-sausage pie order for pickup. Restaurant is pretty basic, a few tables and mostly designed for takeout. Staff was friendly and service was prompt. Toppings were fresh, decent cheese and sauce. A cut above a lot of chains. I'm a little mixed on the crust. Nice and doughy with a bit of chew, but overly thick at the rim, making the sauce and cheese pool towards the center. (See the picture, I'm not joking!) Overall, a good pizza but overpriced at +$20 for a two-topping medium. Still, since the quality was there, I'd give it a firm thumbs-up. This place scores a 4 out of 5 on the 'CTJ Scale', as noted below. 5 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Jesus good. Would be OK passing away after finishing a plate here. 4 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Mary good. Would be OK having a nosh here with Mother Mary. 3 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Joseph good. Would be OK having a beer here with Jesus' Dad. 2 out of 5 stars: Come-to-the-Apostles good. Meh. Wouldn't have my last supper here. 1 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Nobody good. I wouldn't have my penultimate supper here, either.

    Someone recommended it to me recently so I thought I'd try it. Online ordering was a little confusing. Website looks like it was designed by a third grader in 1998. I don't know why they need my phone number AND email address for the order. After I finished, the site said I'd get a confirmation. Never did. Went to pick it up. Restroom looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a while. Staff was friendly. Pizza tastes pretty good. Sauce has a nice flavor; toppings were fresh. I have a little issue with hand tossed crusts. I like them, but they never seem to spread the sauce out far enough. A couple of the slices were only three bites. Seriously. Have a look at the picture. That's a lot of real estate that could have used more sauce and cheese. I would go back though. Maybe get a different type of crust.

    Order was made wrong.

    I normally don't do reviews but I ordered a pepperoni pizza and got no Pepperoni, just cheese. First time trying it and will not be buying here anymore.

    Not really a $24 pizza. They charges $2 extra for extra cheese and $2 for extra "fresh" basil. Flavor is okay, but it was a "ready made" crust...not at all fresh. Don't think I'll be back.

    Nutty Chipotle with Black Olives

    Sometimes you just want a pizza. This town is full of pizza joints on every corner. Garlic Jim's stands out from the crowd! It's nestled into a strip mall off of 1604 and Hausman, so it may be often overlooked. They are available for dine-in, pick up or delivery and I found out the hard (or easy) way that if you accidentally set your order for pickup and you meant delivery, you can easily call and ask them to deliver with no hassle. We've had a few different pizzas from Garlic Jim's but our favorites are the Cheeseburger and the famous Nutty Chipotle. The cheeseburger is topped with bacon, beef, cheddar cheese, classic red sauce, mozzarella cheese, red onions, Roma tomatoes and drizzled with Thousand Island dressing. I don't think it tastes quite like a cheeseburger but it is tasty. I think if they add some shredded lettuce on top that would be a nice addition. Then there is the Nutty Chipotle. I have never heard of such a thing but it is a very interesting choice. It comes with zesty chipotle pesto that is topped with spicy Italian sausage, pepperoni, red onions, tomatoes, and cashews. Cashews, you say? Yes, cashews. They are roasted right on top and you hardly notice them until you taste this interesting crunch from time to time. I add black olives to ours to gild the lily. In the past, we've had the Hercules (all meat) and enjoyed it as well. You have choices on the crust: hand-tossed, garlic thin, and gluten-free. We've tried the hand-tossed and garlic thin and I just can't decide which I like the best. I'd love for them to add a deep dish, but I'll stay happy with the other choices. Staff and delivery people have always been pleasant and accommodating. We don't order pizza very often, but when we do, it's usually Garlic Jim's. It's just a bit different and a good choice in a sea of Papa Johns, Dominoes, Pizza Hut, etc.

    Expensive and not very good. Also took a little too long to prepare when I was waiting with my kids. Nothing special about it at all, sadly.

    They amazing! They're lightly breaded and the flavors are really good.

    I was in San Antonio for a work conference and somehow ended up at Dough two nights in a row…read more Honestly, after the first meal there was no way I wasn't coming back. The first night I was greeted by a friendly host and sat at the bar, where Billy took great care of me. He recommended the Cotto e Salsiccia, and I'm so glad he did. It was easily one of the best pizzas I've had. While I was there, the cheesemaker let me try a bite of the fresh mozzarella they were making in-house. It was still warm and absolutely delicious. The next night I was feeling a little homesick after being away for work, and all I could think about was that pizza. I walked back in and the host greeted me by name. I sat at the bar again, where another bartender remembered me from the night before, and Billy came over just to say hi. It seems like such a small thing, but when you're traveling alone, being welcomed back like that can completely change your evening. What really impressed me was seeing that it wasn't just me. The guy next to me ordered two pizzas to go, and when the chef brought them out he smiled and said, "Oh, Jose! I thought this order looked familiar!" You can tell they actually know their regulars and genuinely enjoy what they do. The second night I ordered the Fontina e Salsiccia, and somehow it was just as good as the first pizza. Everything is cooked in the wood-fired oven--even the wings--and you can taste the difference. The crust has that perfect char, the ingredients are fresh, and it's the kind of authentic Neapolitan pizza that keeps you thinking about it long after you've left. I've eaten at a lot of good restaurants while traveling, but very few have made me feel as welcome as Dough did. Great food is one thing. Great people are what made me come back the very next day. I'll absolutely be back the next time I'm in San Antonio.

    Ok pizza! Great waiter…read more Burned my forearm on the hot plate next to the entrance. Why? They have people Coming in and out! When I asked why they have a hot plate shelf next to the entrance and that I burned my arm on it, the manager and greeter state? There is a sign! They took no responsibility for the ill placement of the sign! As you walk in, we saw several People back into the shelf to allow others to get buy! I can see a child burning their hand terribly on this! What did the restaurant do? Nothing... several times we suggested something be done and not until the manager realized that yes, this is a problem did he do something remotely responsible. I couldn't enjoy the food! I was upset? Hurting and taken back by the terrible way they handled the situation. For reference, I'll show you the picture with the barrier.
