Heard of a new pizza place in town and being a pizza lover thought we'd give it a try . It was busy on a Saturday night about 6:30pm. You order at the counter , sit down and they bring out your pizza. I didn't see a menu listed on the wall and just saw several different pizzas on display . I asked an employee working with dough if they only sold slices . He didn't answer, got some menus and told me to put the rest on the counter, he seemed grumpy. There is a QR code on the menu that will lead you to their website, which is not user friendly on a smartphone. To find out what was in a Greek salad I had to go to the website. I ordered a medium size pizza and a small Greek salad to go at the counter. About 4 tables were empty but weren't bussed. We sat at a small cafe table and waited . after a while I noticed that I had been sitting there a while. I Went up to the cashier and told her I had been waiting 15 minutes and she said that they did not call my name /order yet. So I waited and talked with my mom, lost track of time and now 30+ minutes has passed. Went to the counter and told the cashier that I had been waiting for over a half hour. It actually was close to 40 minutes by the time we left the restaurant . the bottom of the pizza box did not feel hot at all. by the time we got home , the pizza was cold and we had to microwave it . The Greek salad was very small for $6, a lot of olives and red onion slices. I had thought that it was possibly larger so 2 could share but I was wrong. I am not at all satisfied with the service. Right now I really can't comment on the pizza because after paying $30 , the service for a To Go order was so bad it really ruined the experience for me. I'd like to say I'll be back but right now I can't imagine it will be anytime soon.

I was really not impressed. I read some comments on Facebook that said that it was New York style and that the slices were huge. No offense to that person, but maybe they've never had New York style pizza before. These are not big slices either. If you are not a fan of pepperoni, this is not the place for you. They had six pizzas out for display, which they said had been sitting out for about an hour. They did not look very appetizing to me, but I guess I've been spoiled by Home Slice Pizza in Austin, Texas. They had pepperoni and what looked like meatball, pepperoni and bell pepper slices, pepperoni by itself, and also pineapple with what looked like bacon. The only vegetarian option they had was plain cheese. I ordered a plain cheese slice to go. There is not much flavor, and I'm sure I could make better pizza at home. I was honestly hoping that this would be a new place in town that I would stop by every week because I don't know of any place in New Braunfels that sells pizza by the slice, but I don't think that's gonna happen. There would need to be some serious variation, and not just a variation on pepperoni with something else. Price seems a little high for what you get. A sign on the door says they have no public restrooms. They do have restrooms, just not for people who are not spending money and don't have access to a restroom otherwise. ‍

Cheese Please!

Friendly service, clean tables, pizza excellent--Nice & crispy, right amount of sauce, cheese & dough. I came in expecting a quick slice and a quick slice is what I got. Man content.

Went on a Saturday around 1. There were maybe 6-8 people dining. We were greeted right away. They have lunch specials M-Sa. Two slices of cheese or pepperoni and a drink for $10.99 or two speciality slices and a drink for a few bucks more. We did both. Tried cheese, pepperoni, supreme and Alfredo. Also ordered a salad. Jake (a manager) was very kind and helpful. They do have a full menu too. The slices are served "mall style." Pick your slice from pies precooked and sliced and they put it in the oven to heat up. Mine could have been cooked longer for a better crunch. Didn't care for the Alfredo. The rest of the pizza was fine. Nothing that made it stand out. Restrooms were clean.

Slices are $5 each.

I've only been once and plan to return as the 2 slices I got where very good. I thought it was odd that the theme is " by the slice but there were no prices anywhere including the menu listing by the slice prices. The cashier said they were $5 each. The other thing I didn't care for was the sign on the door that says no public restrooms. Not to be that guy but NB has a city ordinance that says all businesses that are open to the public are required to have public access to the restroom, simply because the city has no public restrooms. But it gives an unfriendly feeling. NB isn't like Austin swarming with homeless so no need for that mentality. I look forward to getting more great food here. The look inside the same as it was for the last restaurant that was there so it looks like a BBQ place.

Great pizza, great wings.. service was amazing. These guys are gonna do really well in New Braunfels texas welcome Sophia's.!!!!

The calzone.
Jessica P.

This is an absolute 10/10. Great customer service. Food was amazing!!!! We got pizza, a calzone and some wings. Was just soooo good. The restaurant was clean and aesthetically pleasing. A must try if you've never been.

This is after I dried patted the grease off

Dude making the pizza was nice and welcoming, staff not so much. $25 bucks for reheated pizza (which is the lunch special) for two people seems kinda steep. If it was fresh then it's understandable. Veryyyy greasy also.

I completely understand that they just opened up. But frankly, the pizza was really bad and burnt. We ordered DOUBLE pepperoni, olives, and mushrooms, and on each slice, there were probably three olives and two mushrooms; not all the slices had pepperoni. When I went back up to the counter to inform them that the cooking needed to be adjusted due to being charred, the cashier said she couldn't help me because "she's just a cashier" and that I needed to go find someone else. Her manager was 20 feet away from her. Also, they ran out of Parmesan cheese, and there was a couple random paper plates on the counter. It's poor planning on ordering and managing the business. The customer service was poor and when the pizza was delivered to the table, the sides were not brought over. The manager gave us a voucher for a free pizza but we will not be back. It would have been better to refund our money.

We arrived early to listen to Escape Plan, the live band playing that evening. It took a few…read moreminutes for the waitress to notice us but she was smiling and friendly. I had a Tipsy Blond (named for the Brewery's cat who I saw peeking out the window!) The beer was good and flavorful. I especially like that the menu includes the IBU value for each beer as I prefer beers with little bitterness. After I ordered beer, I flipped the menu over to discover many more cocktail and wine options! We had Rueben's, turkey burger or the regular burger and we all enjoyed the food. My tots were sprinkled with a peppery seasoning that gave them a bit of kick and they were very crispy. I'd suggest them over the fries which were not as crisp. The outdoor seating was cooled by a nice breeze. There is a small indoor bar. The main entrance is on the side street but is also accessible from Castell Ave. I can see enjoying another evening here!

I was in town exploring for the first time and I came across this spot! All the beers they had were…read moregreat and they had a great rounded out choice of beers rather than the usual 5 taps of IPA's. They have a huge outdoor seating area with live music. They have a full bar which is nice if thats your thing. The inside bar was vey small and intimate. I definitely recommend stopping in and supporting a local small business!

We…read moreeach had the strawberry champagne margarita and it was so delicious, not over sweet, a packed a punch! We intended to have 2 each but had to stick with one in order to function afterwards. I had the CFC Biscuit Benedict and you can customize it with spicy chicken or hot honey. I got the hot honey and it was perfect! It was so delicious I don't leave a morsel behind. My friend and I shared the salted caramel brownie for my birthday, and that was also delicious. I can't wait to come back here and this says a lot since I'm not big of fried chicken. Theirs is fried to perfection (soft on the inside and just crunchy enough on the outside). You're seriously missing out!

I have been to this restaurant several times before and it has always been one of my favorites. The…read moredrinks were amazing and the food was consistently great. Last night I finally brought my husband to try it after hyping it up for so long, and unfortunately it was a huge disappointment. Things have definitely changed. I was really looking forward to the chicken fried chicken, only to find out they were completely out of mashed potatoes. For a place known for chicken, that was surprising. So I ended up just sharing some of my husband's meal and our appetizer. The cornbread has always been something I rave about, especially with their hot honey. This time it came out dry, and the hot honey had no heat at all. It just was not the same. My husband's fried chicken was honestly the worst part. It was burnt, with a layer of black under the breading, and tasted like it had been overcooked to the point of being charred. There is no way the kitchen did not see how dark it was before serving it. That said, his sides were still great, so at least part of the meal was enjoyable. Our friend's chicken sandwich was not terrible, but it did not taste fresh like it used to. It felt more like something frozen and heavily breaded instead of the quality we had experienced before. One positive was the service. Our server was wonderful, and the rest of the staff was kind and attentive as well. I accidentally spilled my drink right after it arrived, and they were quick and gracious to replace it even though it was completely my fault. That was very much appreciated. The other issue that really took away from the experience was the atmosphere. Halfway through our meal, a large group of adults sat in the courtyard and had their children sit separately at a table right next to us, while their parents remained in another section of the patio. The kids were clearly having fun and playing games, which is great, but they were also very loud and screaming just a foot away from our table while their parents enjoyed quiet drinks elsewhere. There were completely open sections of the patio farther away where they could have sat, so it was frustrating that they were placed right next to the only other table of adults trying to enjoy a night out. It ended up being very disruptive and took away from what we had hoped would be a relaxing evening. Overall, I was really disappointed. This used to be a place I highly recommended, but after this visit it feels like the quality and attention to detail have slipped. I truly hope they can get back to what made them so great before.
