5 stars for food and service! The owners are so friendly and will share the story of their businesses (they also own Arepitas next door). They will let you sample the gelato which they make in house. The pizzas were perfect size and generous with the toppings. The crust was nice and crispy but soft inside. We will definitely be back again! read more

This is my main pizza place now in Central Texas. I spoke with the owner and he explained that all the ingredients come from Italy and my son who cannot eat gluten has no problem eating pizza here. It's just like being in Europe, where you can eat the breads and pastas with no problem. The food is excellent. It takes a little time for them to prepare it because it's really being prepared and not being thawed out and nuked. If you're looking for a healthy alternative to fast food, this is it. read more

As one of the few fire baked pizza restaurants in the area, the pizza is always delicious. During our last order, which was on Valentine's Day, the pizza took extra long, even longer than promised.

We substituted for the cheese ravioli and I appreciated them calling so that I wasn't surprised upon arrival. The pizza's were both really good and my wife enjoyed the ravioli.

Been looking forward to trying this spot out after seeing their Facebook ads featuring their woodfire oven. Super cute little pick up place with a classic, but super modern, feel. Was greeted immediately and had my order handled (called ahead). Y'all this is the real deal. Every amazing ingredient on it's own coming together to make something just wonderful. If you're looking for a good authentic crust, it's here. Regretting not getting a sandwich because of how incredibly delicious the bread products are. Crunchy, but soft and chewy. I think the only "complaint" I could have is being unable to see the full menu online. What you see of the menu here, listed and in the images, is not the complete menu. There are more delicious options to try! I guess that leaves more to order next time! read more

The service here is AMAZING!! The people here are always so nice and welcoming! Plus the food here is out of this world. I ordered a Sicilian style pizza. This brought me child hood memories of the pizza place I went to in little Italy in San Diego. The Sicilian pizza I had there, reminded me of that same place. I think the food quality is outstanding. Everything there is organic and imported. Usually whenever I eat pizza from other places, I my face breaks out or becomes really oily. When I ate at this place , that did not happen! The food is pricey, but the quality of the food is definitely worth the price. You can tell that the people here love what they do, and that it's made with love and care. I have tried a lot of pizza places here. But this place is by far the best pizza place in town!! I just wished more people knew about it, because it's somewhat of a hidden gem. Plus the gelato there is delicious!!!! If you're visiting, or live here. This has to be one of your new stops to grab food at. Because you can't miss out on it!

This review is for last week. place is nice as ever but half the pizza I ordered was uncooked and thought is was cheese but was dough. Get it can be tuff to make but double check pizza for perfection and presentation. lucky the other pizza turned out great. forgot to write this review but lucky found my notes for this place and remember everything clear as day now. I should of made this other review a couple months back but had a lot on my plate. The day I was there I witness something negative awhile back. I saw and over heard a conversation when waiting for my pasta. either the owner or manager I believe was harassing an employee over a burnt pizza and threaten on taking half his check then went to the back to talk more. I assume he was new so I understandable if he messed up but didn't deserve that kind of treatment if he is learning. he looked depressed after that. since then haven't seen him worked there. on another note my pasta was good but some of the pasta was a bit hard and needed more sauce but other then that good wont see any reply's if anyone sends anything nor I will reply back read more

Since it's a small space and echoey, we could not hear ourselves over the group of people talking. Drinks: We started with the Queen Bee cocktail and a red wine. The cocktail was good but I didn't feel the mixture of flavors worked well for my taste. I can't recall the name of the wine but it was a nice wine to pair with red meat. Appetizers: we started with the fried green tomatoes and the Caesar wedge salad. The tomatoes were a little bland and came out cold (not sure if that was on purpose?). The wedge was good but was slathered in dressing which made it a little too rich. *Side note: I realized after we left that complimentary bread was mentioned on the appetizer menu, but I'm unclear if we had to ask for that...? It was never offered nor brought out. I decided against ordering the French baguette because I assumed there was complimentary bread. Entrees: I had the Ravioli Diablo and my husband tried the Sea Bass special that came with clams, mussels and lobster ravioli. The Ravioli Diablo was just OK, kind of a small portion. For the special, he liked the mussels but thought the sea bass was a little overdone. In hindsight, there was a lot going on with that plate; the ravioli was a bit out of place and it could've used a nice risotto or rice instead. Dessert: we tried ordering Creme brulee but they were out so we ordered the "brown butter" cheesecake instead...I'm including the description from the menu and a picture of the bare cheesecake loaf I received with no toppings (I took the picture after my husband took a bite). I'm actually most disappointed about this since I was hoping it would be the part of the meal to make up for the mediocrity of everything else. "Vanilla bean brown butter with candied pecans and soft whipped cream" Honestly I tried to be optimistic but it was overall not the experience I was hoping for. Especially for a $200 bill.

I just looked at my receipt and there is a charge for "rustic bread" so I'm not sure what that is... did they charge us for both the GF crackers AND the bread that should have been included in the appetizer? That's also not cool.

Walking inside you can immediately notice that it is part of the motel lobby area. We sat in a boot, ordered our drinks and feasted on bread and herbed olive oil. Now first of all, the bread was amazing. Warm, crunchy and plentiful. As for my entree, i ordered the Chicken Diavolo, there was something off about the sauce that i could not pin point, i should never have a mystery when it comes to food but oh well. I did not end up finishing the dish. We took it to-go and unfortunately discarded it. Our service was great and attentive but they could not provide recommendations from the menu, which was off putting.

Freshness and authenticity blow my mind, 100% Italian ingredients of the best quality and unbeatable flavor. How difficult it will be to choose what to eat next time i visit Pierinos. Everything I've tried is amazing. I highly recommend the lasagna, Prosciutto Burrata pizza and the paninos, give them a try, you won't be disappointed read more

Lots of items on the menu, order at the counter, get a number to display on the table, and the food comes out quickly. Not super fancy on the drinks and dinnerware, but it's not that type of place. Great value for what you pay, and you get more than enough for a lunch, even with only one slice.

Plenty of Pepperoni for each slice. A very heavy feeling while eating this pizza . Crust could have been more crisp than it was. I know this may be contrary to other post but I have to be true to my heritage. Service was excellent you order at the counter, pay and then they bring the pizza to you. Nice arrangement in the dining room, counter top, booths and tables. Plenty of people are coming and going so the place is popular and going well Wishing you guys the best.

Well, I can safely say that Tony's Pizzeria has ended my search in Central Texas! I first heard about Tony's through Yelp's recommendation, and my wife and I decided to give it a try. Located in west Killeen, Tony's is easy to reach with a simple turn off of Elm's road. It is within a plaza, and the sign simply reads: PIZZA. Hours are located on the door, and you can find the name "Tony's" plastered on the windows. I walked in, and the slightly hazed interior with employees that gazed at me with the intensity of a NY stare let me know I made an excellent choice. I was welcomed in, and my food was ready upon entry. They thanked me for being a customer, and hoped to see me again. We got the meat lover's 16" pizza, and it was amazing! The flavor was rich, the meat was not overpowering the cheese to sauce ratio, and the crust was so flaky and sweet it felt as if a caring mother made it. My wife and I remarked to one another about the great flavor, and were excited about making this our pizza spot. Thank you Tony's for a top tier pie, and an unforgettable experience!

I got the chicken parmigiana lunch for takeout, which is $3 more if you get it during dinner time. I also got the meatball hot sub. After a $2 service fee, my total was $30, which was great value for how much food I got. I ended up getting 3.5 meals out of these two dishes. The chicken parmigiana lunch was delicious. The pasta and chicken were both very tasty. It came with garlic bread, which I think only had garlic on half of it. The meatball sub was gigantic.

The only issue came when I went to pay the bill they could not get a manager to come to the register to okay the lunch, seems like they did not know how to handle this transaction. Made the experience not as good as it had started. The waitress said she would take care of it and for us not to wait around. They also have Gelato at the store and they have wonderful pastries which we picked up the following week for our son's birthday. Pastries were excellent and reminded me of bakeries in the Bronx.
