“Not Impressed”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2012

WOW!!!!! you know after reading everyone's raving reviews of this place.. I think i could make a homemade pizza with better flavor and probably get my kids to be a better waitress. This was our first visit to this establishment and I was terribly disappointed. The service was slow and there was only two of us and one other couple in the place. We only ordered a beer and water and ended up waiting 12 mins just for the beer. Now I will say the pizza came out pretty fast but to our suprise the look was better then the taste. We were not checked on until we were already done and I guess it was a good thing I wasn't very thirsty. She just didn't seem very happy to have her job this day. So for a final statement.....I am not a local native but will be traveling to the area more for work related purposes i guess we will be sticking to Papa John's down the road...

“great pizza”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2011

This pizza place is a definite place to go on North padre island. It was crowded and we had to wait but not long. It was worth the wait. I had noticed many people picking up pizzas to take back to their hotel. This place is a winner!

“A little bland, but good service/close to beach”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 June 2011

All the ingredients were there, but the pizza didn't offer a robust flavor. I have to agree with pigletpuff's review and blame for the sauce and crust for lack of seasoning. The pizza was otherwise OK.

I enjoyed the service and the restaurant's proximity to the beach.

“Very good pizza”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 April 2011

person found this review helpful

The pizzas and the calzones are very good. I don't know where pigletpuff ate, but it certainly doesn't sound like the same place all the other reviewers ate. The food takes time to get to your table, but that's ok, it's worth it. While I wait I like to check out the photographs posted on the walls by locals (available for purchase). My favorite pizza is the Kitchen Sink. My daughter prefers the calzones, and my son prefers the Sicilian pizza.
