1 slice of pepperoni
Marcella Z.

Ray's Pizza always hits the spot! The staff is friendly and the service is fast. I ordered the lunch combo with a slice of pizza and a salad. The slice is HUGE and frankly I didn't even finish the pizza slice. The pizza has a great crust which keeps me coming back time and time again.

Supreme pizza
Elizabeth L.

To start off, pizza is my favorite food in the whole world, and Ray's is the talk of our dental clinic at UTHSCA. They catered some pizza one night for a group, and the smell of it alone was enriching enough for us to want to come here. Came on a Tuesday night at 5:00PM with 24 people, and there was enough tables and chairs to hold us all. Small resturant, but still enough space for a big dinner with friends. Superrrrr casual inside, with a walk up check out. I love that this is pizza by the slice, allows everyone to order exactly what they want and not have to share with anyone either. Roughly $3-$5 per slice, and it's LARGE. Probably 2 normal slides in 1 of these. I split a medium between 3 people, and it was perfect. Only $14! The cheesecake on display looked beautiful and I wish I got one. I got Gelato instead, and wish I could dock half a star just for the price of this gelato. $5.40 for the tiniest scoop, but again i know ice cream/gelato anywhere is gonna run a higher price when you get it like this. Quick, easy place to stop in and eat!

I saw someone post a picture of their pizza on FB & had to try. First time here. Everything was good. The crust of the pizza os one of the best we have had. We tried the classic. It was good. Will definitely try another pizza next time. Loved the wings & ceasar. It is a step up from a hole in the wall. The staff was friendly. Overall good option for pizza & wings.

Staff is friendly, food is nothing to write home about.. I've seen many reviews about the workers being young and rude but I had a great experience. They were quick & friendly and I am just glad my experience was like that rather than some of these stories lol The mozzarella sticks were probably my favorite part. The meat lovers Stromboli was suuuuper greasy like I totally understand pepperoni and sausage have oil but underneath was like a pile of grease and it made my stomach a little uneasy. However, it was huge but the size doesn't really matter when you're not going to eat it anymore... The chicken parm was interesting. Not a cutlet but more like a chicken tender. We were wondering why all the oregano on top because it was a bit overkill -- My bf ate it but we had the same consensus that this sauce is what's lacking. It barely has any flavor unfortunately and it is in most of the dishes we tried.

Pizza was amazing. Place was a little empty, which seemed unsettling, and there was a lot of workers which made the place feel empty. Pizza was kind of expensive and wouldn't recommend the gelato but it's a great experience if you want to eat some good pizza..

Mango habanero boneless wings with Parmesan fries
Angela E.

My fav pizza place! This place has the best pizza for the best prices. (If I want expensive I'm going to Dough's) NY style, thin but very large slices and tastes delicious. Chicken bites are also great. The sandwiches are good (homemade bread ) and fries are great too Great seating area, can always bring a ton of friends. Food ALWAYS tastes great and service is good. Side note- these sell cheesecake slices for $6/ piece and they are delicious. Turtle is my fav. Not sure who bakes them and brings them in to sell in their cases but they are really good.

Came by to celebrate my moms birthday and wasn't disappointed. We ordered several salads, three pizzas, lasagna, and some Spaghetti . Everything was perfect! Pizza was tasty and hot and the salads were so crisp and fresh! I can't wait to go back!

 a slice of pizza and a salad
Mari A.

Hands down the BEST NY style pizza place. I order my slice well done all the time, I love that charred crust. I'm glad they offer the combo daily. Aside from the delicious food, there's the mediocre service. It reminds me of the same service and attitude you would get in NYC. I'm still coming back! Come check them out for yourself!

 two slices of pizza
Victoria P.

I am VERY happy I ignored the yelp reviews and paid attention to the photos. When I first saw the photos I got my hopes up and guess what, Ray's did not disappoint! Is this pizza really 5/5 stars? No...it's more 4/5, BUT... considering there are slim pickings in San Antonio for AUTHENTIC NY Style pizza I just had to give Ray's a bump in rating for standing out. I gotta give credit where credit is due. Most of the bad reviews were geared toward the customer service. I didn't have a bad experience here. Just feed me. Fun fact: I learned that people in Texas are not used to the flavor of NY Style pizza dough. NY Style pizza dough is fermented in the fridge for 1-3 days. That process is what gives the pizza dough that yeasty/doughy flavor. It's a very distinct flavor and I've learned that some people don't like that flavor (sacrilegious lol). Hence lovers of Pizza Hut, Domino's, and Papa John's exist. Anyway...Ray's NAILED the dough flavor. It was there. The texture was spot on as well. I prefer a very tomatoey pizza sauce. The sauce here was good, not amazing, but for sure solid. Ray's is the most authentic NY Style Pizza I have had since living in SA. I've tried Yaghi's, Goomba's, 46th street, and Sapore's. I'd order a pie again from Ray's because it brought me back to the corner store pizzerias I grew up with. Very nostalgic. Very authentic. You want something close to NY Style pizza without being in NY? Head to Ray's. I still have a few more pizzeria's to try out, but right now Ray's takes the cake! Enjoy!

Calzone looks like a cookie.
Christine P.

I am so deeply disappointed in the food i received to night. I have been coming here for years and cannot believe the food this evening. Calzone is hard and thin. Wings were so greasy. The calzone was old and chewy. What happened!

Boneless 10 Piece Single Order Wings
Peyton G.

Every single dish I have had from here was a banger! Most recently I had the boneless wings with buffalo and fries. I would go so far as to say better than Wing stop. All my food was hot and fresh. I've also had the Pizza and Ravioli and both were good. I also appreciate their side salads come with assorted toppings, not just a plate of lettuce.

Sausage penne
Lora D.

Wow oh Wow! So horrid day when so many things went wrong. I stopped in at Ray's on the way home, but still had stops along the way. It's great that they used the metal bowl with the cardboard top. It was easily almost an hour before I got to eat this dish...but still quite warm which you can't say for the foam to go containers. I was just bowled over with my first bite of penne sausage. I mean most places say authentic Italian but they are usually a pale imitation of the Italian I grew up on, East Coast, Jersey/ NY Italian. This packed a real WOW! If I closed my eyes I was back eating from a neighbor's Italian grandmother. The sauce, the sausage, the spices...OMG just perfection for me. Loved the bread but not as much as that dish. So why only a three? They gave me the wrong salad...a Caesar salad instead of the garden with blue cheese. The inside while very clean doesn't make me want to linger. The main dish was definitely a five. I also had a gelato which I enjoyed very much. Great selection of gelatos...sorry that photo didn't turn out. If I lived closer I'd be there a lot. So if to go is your game or you don't care about the furniture I highly recommend it. Very easy for handicapped...parking in front and door easy to enter.

They were very attentive to every guest and the quality of their meals and their experience. When I mentioned the issue I had with my entree the manager possibly owner immediately took the feedback and said he would personally make a change for me when I came back. He prob won't remember me but the fact he listened was great. Our waitress was also super on point, kept drinks full, recommended and was generally a treat. As far as the food, we tried the Adriatic shrimp with extra shrimp. Worth. Every. Dollar. It was so good. My entree was the Pollo e Monet and my friend had the Pasta el Nero. Let me say straight away she enjoyed here. For mine the chicken was cooked perfectly and the sun dried tomatoes were very fresh. Where it went off was the duck fat potatoes. Between the lemon butter sauce and the duck fat they were soggy and greasy. I coudn't enjoy them. Everything else was spot on. The parking is a mess but there's a back entrance from the back lot so not terrible. It's very loud in there tho. Have to speak up to have a convo but it's a welcoming vibe. Def on the return list.

The bottle-and-board special keeps bringing us back. -- Postino Broadway in San Antonio has easily…read morebecome one of those dependable neighborhood spots for lingering over wine, sharing a generous board and stretching the evening just a little longer. We eventually joined the monthly bottle membership, which probably says everything about how often this place works for us. The bruschetta boards are generously portioned with enough variety to lean savory, sweet or somewhere deliciously in between, and they pair perfectly with an easy bottle of wine. It's casual enough for a spontaneous stop but still feels polished enough to make an ordinary evening feel like a treat. One of the highlights is when they open the large bar windows and the whole space shifts into that indoor-outdoor mode. You can sit inside, outside or right along the open-air edge and enjoy the best of both. We've even come here after a full dinner somewhere else just to linger, lounge and finish the night with another pour. Postino has easily become a San Antonio spot for relaxed sips, shareable bites and easy neighborhood vibes.

Really didn't get enough to try a review…read more From our one stop that a local recommended- it wasn't worth the hype. The bruschetta flight was wheat bread (yuckyyy) and the toppings were skimped on. Flavor was not there for the food. I forced myself to eat it all too because I refuse to waste food in this economy but my bf didn't like any so I was accepting the challenge Wine was a basic glass and the atmosphere is kinda odd aesthetic. Not sure what their vibes or theme is. Kinda just plain. One bartender and she was kinda spacey and ppl were flagging her down for service. There was a man next to us at the bar and he was clearly a regular. He knew bartenders name and she knew his and the conversation was more professional / business customer service than friend. He said his meatballs didn't taste normal or good and I heard the bartender tell him either the chef quit or is on vacation and someone else was back there. He sent it back but was trying to tell her he didn't want another one but she got a manager and came out they said they were sorry and making him another one. Not sure if I went on a one off but I doubt I'll be back if in the area.

As far as the food, we had the fried mozzarella, which was essentially a log of cheese deep-fried and served over sauce. It was delicious, but the cheese-to-crust ratio was a bit heavy. The Caesar salad looked better than it tasted. It was very wet, if that makes sense, and the lettuce seemed soggy. Now for the Wagyu ragu. This almost made me have a seizure, and not in a good way. It was extremely salty and completely inedible, so we had to send it back. The waitstaff was very accommodating and agreed that the salt level was way off, so we replaced it with the carbonara. I'm not sure if that's what authentic carbonara is supposed to taste like, but I did not enjoy it. It tasted burnt to me and had too much pepper. I also didn't care for the shape of the noodles. Last, we had the Americano pizza. It was decent, but nothing to write home about. I just think that if you're going to advertise a pizza with meat on it, there should be more than one piece of sausage per slice. As far as the service, our server was fine. Not particularly friendly, but straightforward and efficient. The manager (or another server) was helpful when it came to replacing our dish. Overall, I would not go back. The location is great and the vibe is nice, but the food was a miss. Save your money and go somewhere else.
