Craig O’s Pizza & Pastaria

I love this place! Great lunch deals. Always leaves me full and satsfied no matter what I order. Staff is also very nice. Since I go often they know my name. I will def be back. Also happy that they support Austin High sports. Go Maroons!

We got pick-​up from Craig O’s tonight. My boyfriend and I are here on vacation and really just wanted to take a break from sightseeing and we made an EXCELLENT choice. When we went to pick up our food, the owner himself was waiting for us and making sure we had all we needed before we left. He was really friendly and warm, nice guy. When we got to the room, we feasted. Neither of us talked over dinner. It was FANTASTIC! We had the Gluten Free House Special Pizza and the Gluten Free Penne– WOW! Yes, 5 stars for flavor.

I love this pizza place. They deliver, it is prompt and hot but most important it has always been delicious and loaded with toppings.

Great pizza, nice house wine, friendly. I like. :)

I may be crazy. Or not.
But ever since I’ve tried the Italian dressing at Craig os with their Greek salad; no other Italian dressing compares. They have damaged me. I currently buy their dressing by the pint for my fridge. I am addicted.

Cozy cute place. Good pizzas! Lasagna was good. Meatballs are different taste, a bit spicy but good. Calzones were huge, can order one for two! The chalk wall was a big hit for my kids. Will order/​come back here again.

Pretty good gluten free pizza. Crust was actually crispy. Not the best but if you want a pizza delviered it’s a great option.

I recently went gluten free — doctor recommended, I’m not following a fad — and I’ve had a hard time finding awesome G Free pizza.
While I like the G Free pizza here it only comes in the largest size. Well, when you live by yourself there’s no way to eat that whole thing in one sitting. And while it’s good when you first get it, not as good a real pizza though, it is definitely not as good the next day.
I have tried reheating it all sorts of ways, but basically no matter what I do it either becomes rock hard or hard enough that it cuts my mouth. So it’s a complete waste of money if you’re G Free to get a G Free pizza here b/​c you get two slices in and can’t eat the other 75% of the pizza (yeah, it’s that big).
So, they either A. They need to serve it in all sizes to accommodate your scarfing needs or B. Work on the G Free pizza dough recipe so it can be reheated without killing your mouth.
Please note: If you are not G Free this place was my go to place for pizza before Doctor’s orders kicked in.

The thin crust cheese pizza at Craig O’s is about as good as it gets in Austin for New York style pizza. I love HomeSlice as well but Craig O’s gets my regular business.
1. Their pizzas are awesome. My favorites are the thin crust cheese, their pepperoni, and their «House Special» pizza.
2. The salads at Craig O’s are excellent. I love their Greek Salad the best.
3. They have great entrees. My wife loves their Baked Spinach Ziti and my kids love their spaghetti and meatballs.
4. They also have about 5 or 6 local beers on tap. Stuff from Guns & Oil to Thirsty Goat Amber. They rotate these beers out so you can try lots of different local beers.
My office is very close to the 290/​Mopac location and co-​workers and I hit up their 2 slices and a drink lunch special [for $ 6 !!!] about once every couple of weeks.
The ownership and management are always super friendly as well.

I attempted to place an order for delivery on 10/​30/​2015 from the location at 290 and Brodie. I had to re-​read my street name («Bisbee») over and over to the employee, who struggled with the spelling of the word. After 4 tries, I gave up and ordered from Jet’s Pizza.

WOW! Try the gluten free crust margarita pizza! AWESOME! The spaghetti and meat balls is just mouth watering! Salad was a great side to include. Ordering was easy and delivery beat the time originally quoted! Delivery driver was super as well! This is great food at a great price!

Very pleased and happily surprised with the quality of food. I’ve tried pastas, pizzas and deserts and everything was yummy! I would order from this place again if I’m ever in the area.

I would give zero stars if that was possible. This was my third and last bad experience with this lazy care not restaurant. Once again my order was wrong. (Each piece). It was, as usual, delivered late. The delivery person, whom I tipped above 20%, told me the parmesan I asked for was certainly in the bag and walked off before I could finish talking. Needless to say it wasn’t and then my meal was also incorrect. I just felt completely robbed again. Done.

I was a bit surprised about how good my food was. I ordered the sausage sub which was huge and very tasty, also had the Ziti which was good. I’ll probably try the pizza next time.

Seriously, the best normal pizza, pasta and salad in south austin. Plus, they have family specials!
Last, go for dessert they are great! Amazing cheesecake and tiriamisu.

This pizza just might be my favorite in Austin. It has excellent flavor, the right ratio of sauce and cheese. We enjoyed a combo of Italian sausage, bell peppers, and mushrooms yum.

I love a good mom and pop Italian joint and that seems to be what Craig O’s is trying to be. I first heard about it from some co-​workers that would frequently order pizza from them for lunch. One time I tried a slice and it was decent, so I decided to go there for lunch one day.
When I first arrived I was a little confused when I first walked in because well it was my first time. There were several people behind the front counter and it took them a while to greet me. I was unsure if I was supposed to sit or order or what. I finally figured it out. I ended up ordering my favorite Italian dish which chicken Parmesan.
The dining area is small. My chicken parmesan was delivered to my table. It looked a little off compared to all other chicken parmesan I have had in my life. First the cheese on top was not melted. As I dug into it I realized it wasn’t really warm enough to melt the cheese on top. I also found it odd that they had sliced up the chicken which made the chicken on the dry side as all the juices had already escaped. It was almost like everything was pre-​made and just kinda reheated but not all the way.
Needless to say I will likely not be back for awhile.

Had the lunch menu Half chicken parm sandwich and Greek salad. Price was very reasonable for the quality of food received and wait time after ordering at the counter was short. The employees were polite and the dining area was very clean.

Great fantastic pizza & for the price of 2 big slices & drink for less than 6 nix u can’t beat it. Also great & fast service & very friendly.

Literally just finished eating this place as a delivery. We ordered 2 extra large pizzas, two orders of wings, and a pesto chicken Alfredo.
I never had this place before so I didn’t know what to expect. When I first called, it took a dang near ten minutes just to put the order in because the girl on the phone had me repeat the order 3 times but she did mention she was new so I’ll cut them some slack there.
The order arrived about 15 – 20 minutes after the time told of 45 mins — 1hr time frame. This can be frustrating for a house full of HANGRY people. I told them to add plates with the order too. They gave me ONE PLATE. Really? Come on, we ordered that much food, and you give me ONE plate? The delivery guy then suggested that I just split the one paper plate so we can all share. (What the heck)
The wings and the pesto chicken Alfredo was really good, for that– I gave them two stars. But the pizza was just okay. Nothing spectacular at all and one of our extra large pizzas wasn’t even cut!!!
I don’t know what going on here someone is slacking…
