The Tribune.^
Nicole M.

Similar concept to chipotle as in your order your food or can custom through a line and by the time you pay your food is ready. We ordered the tribune and it was delicious! Fan of the thin crust and the small was enough for my husband and I to split. We ended up coming in randomly when they had trivia. We played and that enhanced our experience. Pizza, pitcher of beer and trivia... can't beat it!

We stopped by the Pizza Press to have the Valentines day special since it was one of the few pizza parlors in town offering heart shaped pizzas :) The Valentines special included two heart shaped pizzas of choice, warm cookie with vanilla ice cream and two drinks. We had The Times (chicken) and The Chronicle (veggie). The ingredients were fresh, dough was thin and crispy with the perfect sauces drizzled on top. The line moved slightly slowly as it was lunch time and it looked like the constant flurry of customers were all UT students. The staff seemed slightly overwhelmed with the long lines but were trying to be nice nonetheless. It took a while for our order to be prepared. The food was great but the restaurant looked quite dated, especially with rusty vents on the ceiling, right above the prep station of the pizza. There's are a few parking spots available right outside the restaurant entrance.

The good: I love the ambiance this place has! Being around the communication building, they have a lot of journalism related memorabilia and food named after newspapers, which I think is cool. The root beer on tap is always worth to have. The bad: since they bake your pizzas in front of you, it can take a while to get the food, which also means that there's a pretty long line during lunch or dinner. Also, sometimes the pizza is good, but sometimes, like this time around, a bit salty.

I went to pizza press last night with my friend and got a build your own. I got a pizza with pepperoni,pineapple, mushrooms, olives, and mushrooms and it was pretty good and flavorful. I know that my pizza sounds disgusting but don't hate on it unless you try it. The service was also tuff as I saw my boy there and he was an absolute chiller. Would highly recommend this place but not for a date as it didn't go so well for me. Furthermore I almost choked and died while eating my pizza so make sure to take small bites and enjoy your pizza !

Pizza was decent. They have a few options to choose from and different crusts as well as you can build your own pizza. Cauliflower crust is good. Service was okay, had a lady cashier she was rude and seemed like she hated her job and everyone there. Overall ambiance is boring and bland. but if you want to order a late night pizza online and pick it up i'd say it's fairly decent.

Solid joint by the U. Usually drop by but did not have the chance to rate it. Move in day at UT and Ryan was manning the joint by himself. What a champ as it got busier he handled his business and kept the flow moving. They do have cauliflower crust as well. Fast good pizza with beer on tap. Shout out to Ryan, good food and great service.

This place has been one of my favorite pizza spots in West Campus. The pizza is customizable to your liking or you can choose from preset options as well. I chose to do the PYO (personalize your own) pizza. There are a lot of topping choices to choose from to really make it your own. The pizza does come in a more thin crust style so it's perfect if that's your preferred style. The place is open and has various booths for you sit at and televisions to watch from. There are also rocking chairs outside and parking, which is nice if you prefer sitting outside to enjoy your food. The service is fairly good. The pizza artists were very patient with my friend as it was his first time eating here and he was browsing through all the possible toppings he could choose from.

Great food! Line moves pretty fast, and sometimes they have trivia nights too! I highly recommend their cinnamon pizza as well if you're in the mood for a dessert!

The Herald
Devesh S.

The pizza is nice and is not very expensive. We got two of the signature pizzas and they both turned out to be good. My only complaint is that the pizza is thin crust and is not filling enough, I wish they make the size slightly larger even if it means it costs more.

yummy pizza in west campus, close of ut students. like the build your own pizza as you can put unlimited toppings/meats/cheese (limited to one serving per topping). worth the price if you get serval toppings but not a lot of topping choices. definitely fills your pizza craving. fast service. casual ambiance.

I've gotten multiple people hooked on this place. The pizza is so good and you can customize it as much as you want. The prices have gone up a lot and is pretty pricey for a personal pizza. The decorations are really cool , but almost every time I go the tables are pretty dirty.

PYO Pizza
Christopher C.

Great spot to go with friends and enjoy superb pizza! Similar to subway means of ordering. I'm a big fan of adding as much as I can on top to get my money's worth! I knocked it one star based on the price of around $15 (including tip)! TIP: I'd recommend getting a side of ranch at the end of the line! I'd also recommend eating outside! The ambience is nice!

Bella G.

I'm truly sorry to Pizza Press but this is the most mid pizza ever. YES, I did build my own but that wasn't the problem, I just think it wasn't the best pizza I've had. It looks beautiful with all of the bright colors from the veggies but for overall quality I'm giving it a 4/10. Sorry to be harsh!!! Just keeping it real with my fellow foodies.

The pizza was delivered cold and the quality was poor for a $27 pizza. I would not recommend it to others.

I come here exclusively for the pistachio baklava cheesecake. The parking situation is a bit of a…read moreheadache but totally worth it. I've only ever ordered takeout at the counter so I can't speak to the dine-in experience, but the service is smooth and efficient. Dessert is ready in about 5 minutes and food orders during busy dinner hours have taken around 20 minutes, which honestly wasn't bad at all given how packed they get. Everything is always packaged nicely and securely, and the food is consistently delicious. They also carry other sweets worth trying like honey cakes and pistachio baklava. On the savory side, some dishes I've really enjoyed are the Mezze Platter, Beef and Lamb Doner, and Ribeye Steak Shish Kebab. It's not super loud but the front can get a bit overstimulating when it's busy, so if you're not a fan of crowds I'd recommend coming outside of peak hours. This most recent time, I didn't realize until I was home that they forgot to pack one of the baklava cheesecakes I'd ordered. They were able to refund me over the phone when I couldn't come back to pick it up. Highly recommend!

Overall: 3.6/5 [delivery]…read more We ordered on UberEats and the food arrived on time. Governor's Mixed Kebap Plate ($26.95): The plate came with chicken, köfte meatballs, ground lamb kebap (adana), ezme, pickled red cabbage, onion, rice, and a sauce. I chose the crazy grain rice which is a mix of black rice and lentils, and the spicy harissa sauce. The ezme, pickled red cabbage, and adana were my favorites. The chicken was good too and the köfte meatballs were my least favorite of the bunch. The pita bread was also fire and super fresh, honestly one of the best I've had when it's heated up and warm. The box was completely packed and was easily enough for 2 meals or to share between 2 people. Zucchini Yogurt with Fresh Dill and Walnuts ($3.25): Not a fan. It had a sour aftertaste with a citrusy zing that made me think this went bad. Chicken Lemon Orzo Soup ($6.99): Came with chickpeas, shredded chicken, and orzo. It was really yummy, especially paired with some sourdough bread I had on hand.
