I've tried most of the pies throughout the city and these are the tastiest. They get the crust right -- always crisp and flavorful ... not that cardboard stuff you end up with most places that feels like just a vehicle for the toppings. The place can get crowded and even take out can take an hour so plan ahead.

  • Pros: Great crust and delicious toppings

I've been raving about this place since I found it but the last few visits have been very disappointing. Ordered a large #6 last night and got home with a SOGGY mess with very few toppings for over $20. 3/4 ended up in the trash. I guess it's back to the Brick Oven for me. Sorry to see Salvation Pizza dropped from my list of regular places to dine.

  • Pros: Was a great pizza joint
  • Cons: Quality is suffering big time

Joined some friends here for half price beer. Four of us ordered the large (which is huge) artichoke and eggplant pizza. It was delicious and more than enough for the four of us. Pretty cool place. Nice vibe for the location. Well worth the visit.

Have been making this a monthly luxury. I generally get a pie to go, and have a glass of beer or wine while waiting. The pizza is the best I've had in Austin, and that says a lot after living here for 17 years.

They get it. Crust is divine. Small but great beer selection, and you can get a huge pie for around $20. I usally get a couple meals out of a large.

This place is great for a small group of people. The ambiance is laid-back hipster with the occasional family. Not many families are willing to pay extra for inventive toppings and atmosphere, though, so it's mostly 20-30-somethings drinking wine/beer chatting with friends/dates. The pizza was very good, but a little overpriced...could have stood a few more minutes in the oven. Would recommend for a weeknight date...parking is limited.

The pizza is consistently fantastic. I'm from NY, so I'm quite picky and was consistently disappointed in Austin until I tried Salvation. They have great crusts, great toppings, and great cheese, so I've been quite contented with every pie I've gotten there. The service, on the other hand, is spotty. At times, it's been very quick despite being slammed, and a few Friday/Saturday nights, I've deeply regretted setting foot in the place. It seems to be getting better over time and I haven't had a bad experience in at least six months, so it's still among my favorite places to eat in Austin.

  • Pros: Delicious pizza even by a New Yorker's standards
  • Cons: Spotty service--usually good, occasionally awful

I went to salvation for the first time a couple of months ago and have raved about it since. They have live oak hefeweizen which goes great with the white pie, as well as an assortment of wines and brews. I live near UT Campus and believe me I've tried every pizza place from south first to north loop, Salvation is by far the tastiest. If you live in central austin, or go to UT, Salvation Pizza is a must try.

I have been searching for this kind of pizza salvation since I was in Italy! Perfect thin crust, light on the sauce but not on flavor, REAL cheese...a shame you even have to wonder but real cheese it is! Quite atmosphere inside and great spacious outdoor seating! If you love pizza you must try Salvation! Oh and they are fast at making the pies!

Love the Pizza. Tastes just like the ones I used to get in NYC after a long nite out! Really tasty, crisp think crust, just the right amount of pizzazz in the sauce. The Clam Pizza w/ bacon was awesome. I'd eat here anyday!

  • Pros: Pizza
  • Cons: hard to find parking
