    Pepperoni,  jalapeño,  black olive, spinach pizza
    Kate P.

    Went here today for the first time. The restaurant is very open and set up much like subway but with pizzas! Uou write your name on a piece of paper and hand it to them and design away! They have multiple crusts to choose from including a gluten free option. They also had many different sauces including a spicy red sauce which i had. I also chose shredded mozzarella and asked them to go light, which they did perfectly. They have lots of toppings as well. If you don't want to design your own they have quite a few pre set options as well. After your done they toss it in the oven and serve it to you just a few short minutes later. The best part is you pay one price even if you choose every topping there is! All the pizzas are 10 inch single serve pizzas but filling. I ate half. Definitely wish we had one of these back home!

    Love the Caprese Pizza! So yummy! The service was quick and efficient and the ambiance is cool and casual with cute wall art and seating!

    The big slice!

    Haven't been here in a while. Prices have REALLY gone up, but it's still a great meal. You build your own pizza, and I really load it up! The side salad is basic, but it's still fresh and really good. Add a drink, and you've got a meal for $15. I really do like their pizza, and I'll have a couple of pieces leftover for take out. The staff is always friendly and will fix your pizza anyway your little old heart desires. Let's eat!

    i got my pizza and it was literally soggy, the crust literally felt wet. i waited about 15 minutes and there were only about 7 people in the building. they then proceeded to give my pizza out to the wrong people and had to remake it.

    I think pretty much everybody loves Pizza By Design! Basically the personal (10" ish) pizza version of Subway... go down the line telling them what toppings you want on your pizza then they put on the conveyor belt oven and like 5 minutes later you're eating! Tons of topping choices and it's a flat rate per pizza... if you just want chicken and spicy pizza sauce, maybe regular sauce and 5 kinds of cheese, maybe 3 different meats and lots of vegetables... still the same price! The inside is always very clean with nice people and easy curbside pickup if you call in your order! Highly recommended!

    One of the best gems in Abilene! A place where you design your own pizza with unlimited toppings for a super reasonable price. The pizza was super delicious and I love that the dough is homemade. We were greeted by Miss Kaylynne as we entered and she was super sweet and made me the best pizza ever. I would recommend pizza by design to anyone looking to eat a great tasting pizza!

    As name suggests design your own pizza by choosing as many toppings as you want..it's one size personal pie 10 in only so ordered spicy red sauce with pesto,spinach & jalapeño with fresh mozzarella..crust came out perfectly crisp & pizza tasted nice.Helping & smiling employees (nowadays very rare)...will be back to explore new flavors

    My own specially designed pizza. I should trademark it, it's perfect! I'm naming it "The Q"

    First time in and won't be my last. This pizza is the best in Abilene, and living in Austin the last 30+ years, I'm kind of a pizza snob. Ingredients really fresh, and although limited choices, they have enough to chose from to make some good pies. place is super clean, staff really friendly. My ONLY complaint, the god awful club music over the sound system. Beyoncé type crap, I never heard her, but it's what I imagine her music is like. Well, now that, it just changed to some oldie car hop music, not my choice but better than Beyoncé esq whatever. Looks like 8 beers on tap, and like 10 bottles to choose from. 4 months have passed.... EDIT: I forgot to post this the day I wrote it. Well I'm here AGAIN. So adding too this review. With photo, cause I'm fancy. Ok, today I got brave and edited my own pizza, try it, it's f'ing AMAZING, and will be all I ever get when I come here. To get this pizza, I'm going to name "#WWG1WGA", named that, because 1. It's just cool. And 2. It will make curious people, get online, and investigate what the hashtag means. And seriously, order this, you won't be let down. Order a thin crust, Caprese, than you kick it up 32 notches, by adding BACON, and Italian Sausage. You wouldn't think a change so simple would be like making gold from lead, or electricity from spinning mercury, but it is! Ok, this is the end of my review, have a blessed and bad ass day! One last note, if your like me, and hate crowds, and people for the most part, don't come here after 5:00pm on a Saturday, I walked in and enjoyed my pizza in a nice quiet atmosphere, but as I'm about to walk out the door, literally 30 people have crowded through the door in the last 10 minutes. Come here on like, Wednesday around 11:30 pm, or 3:00 pm, these are safe times for those of us who don't mingle well with the sheep. EDIT AGAIN: I'm changing the name of my pizza to "The Q" it's easier out of the mouth than WWG1WGA. But still just as informative.

    Not grading the dining room. Not grading the wait staff…read more Only grading the pizza. It was gas. Sometimes one star reviews scare you away... and sometimes they accidentally leave more pizza for the rest of us.

    It's time to update my review again. Brick Oven has made me really go back and forth on my opinion…read moreof them over the years. Is it the best pizza I've ever had, no. Although, it's a unique spot that a lot of people enjoy. A crisp, crunchy crust with fresh toppings! I still love their quesadillas! Really happy with their salad portion size and the almonds as an addition to the house salad. Price for the portion size and quality of their pizzas is still out of range in my opinion. I've had a lot of mixed feeling about their food over the years, and usually don't feel inclined to go back. Our waitress brought our check at the beginning of our meal and to go boxes as well, which is proactive of course, but we felt rushed and confused. We never got to even state that our checks were separate, not together. Our appetizer was brought after we received our meal which was stated to be a mishap with a new chef, but we were not asked if we even wanted it at that point. We were also charged the full price instead of the lunch menu price for it as it should've been. Honestly, it would've been honorary to not be charged for it at all under the circumstances. It was just strange. We all have our off days, but it just added to my distaste for Brick Oven. I wish I had a consistently great experience with them! Here's to hoping for better experiences! Maybe it's just not my cup of tea.

    insane delicious food! I def recommend to anyone who asks. I'm doing a b-day next timeread more

    The last stop during my Abilene day trip was the wood-fire pizzeria Vagabond. We arrived at…read moreVagabond exactly at 6:00 pm, impressed by their cork decor outside the shop. We were immediately greeted by the server and seated just as quickly. The place was pretty busy, as one would expect on a Saturday at 6 pm, so it was great to be seated right away. The table was already set with two water cups, two plates, two sets of silverware, and two napkins, so we didn't have to set the area ourselves. Our server came shortly after with a large glass bottle of water and took our drink orders. My girlfriend got a bottled Dr. Pepper while I stuck to water. I also noticed they serve plenty of wines as well as a good selection of craft beers. They have ten different specialty pizzas, and we settled on their most expensive: the Carnivore. I say most expensive, but it was $20 for a pizza that fed two. It took about 10-15 minutes before the pizza came out, which is impressively fast. All pizzas are about 12 inches and are sliced into sixes. If you're hungry, consider an appetizer or a dessert, but to us, it was a perfect size with plenty of meat. The crust is thin and crispy, as one would expect from a wood-fire pizza. It was really excellent. For dessert, my girlfriend and I ordered their Saturday Morning Cartoons, which is a panna cotta with Fruity Pebbles that I enjoyed but she adored (I let her eat most of it). All in all, the meal was around $30 plus the tip I added. We were in and out in under 40 minutes, which was quite impressive for a sit-down pizza restaurant. I highly recommend this to anyone living in or visiting Abilene. P.S. My girlfriend wanted my Yelp review to note that their women's bathroom has hair ties, bobby pins, a Tide pen, and other items that you never know you'll need until you do, which gives Vagabond extra brownie points for going above and beyond. RIYL: An affordable meal for two.

    Wow! We ordered delivery and it was surprisingly good - a variety of dishes (cheese ravioli,…read moreAlfredo, lasagna, baked ziti) and all were hot, fresh and very tasty. The rolls were great also, along with the fried ravioli. This will become a regular goto when we want Italian.

    I'll start with the bad, then finish with the good. Short…read morestory? I'll be back. But... Luigi's Little Italy needs to up their game on fried appetizers. Being our first visit, we tried to sampler so that we could experience 3 of the apps at once. The calamari, mozzarella sticks and "toasted" ravioli all seemed to be fried in the same batter, and the same oil. I would question the quality of the items even before frying.... and the frying didn't help their cause. I ate one bland, not-so-fresh tasting calamari ring, one bite of a mozzarella stick and one bite of the ravioli. The rest of the appetizer went home to the dog. I mean, this place is dated, and this I knew before eating. Which is fine--I think many of us have a need to experience the nostalgia of the Italian restaurants of yesteryear. Rubber grapes hanging from the ceilings, painted images of Italy on the wall. Unchanged from when I was a teenager in Western NY and we would go out for Italian; the decor and menu seem to be the same. But the quality of ingredients needs to be current. We have come to expect better! A lot of Italian places are doing more creative things, with better calamari. Appetizers such as burrata and carpaccio are present on modern Italian menu's. If you are going to stick with the old stuff, it needs to be GREAT. Okay, enough of the negativity. The Chicken Florentine ordered by my companion was very good. The sauce was nice, flavorful, and not too heavy (although perhaps too generous but that's going back to the dated thing). I have a sampler of stuffed pastas, and the red sauce was very much to my liking. A touch of sweet, not too acidic, just the way I like sauce to be. They have a decent wine selection. I didn't try the desserts. I'm quite a cannoli purist...and I hate to be disappointed, so I didn't risk it. Overall--we'll be back. We'll be back for the friendly and consistent service, the generally good food (skip the fried stuff), and the kitschy ambience.
