Austin's Pizza Westlake — Restaurant in West Lake Hills

A local legend for sure! Great pizza at great prices! It's also one of those thinnish crusts places which I personally love. The cheese and sauce is fresh, the crust is perfectly buttery and crispy, and it all adds up to one of the best pizzas you'll ever eat! Staff are knowledgeable, efficient, and genuinelly nice folks, and will fix even the slightest 'oopsie' so fast your head will spin.

Don't let your GPS fool you they're a little hidden, once you're by what looks like a 2-story apartment complex converted into small business offices, that's the spot. Keep going past that line of storefronts and you'll see a playground, outdoor seating, and then the restaurant itself if you look a little to the right.

Speaking of that, I was only placing a takeout order but the restaurant itself has both indoor and outdoor seating, along with the mentioned playground for the kiddos, and they've got a nice divey vibe with the kinda atmosphere that makes you think of a hole-in-the-wall NYC pizza joint indoors. Then outside a gorgeous string-light-illuminated patio area among several huge old trees that act as a canopy, while some of the best rock music flows at just the right volume from overhead...

My Italian sausage and pepperoni pizza was great! There were plenty of toppings, and adequate cheese. I chose regular crust, which turned out to be rather chewy, but somewhat firm. This was my first visit here. I asked A LOT of questions! I was the only customer (it was late in the evening), so I was patiently endulged.  It was very easy, actually, and now that I'm familiar I can see how to quickly order calling or coming in again. Walking in you feel like you are in their storage room with the pizza boxes, water cases, and soda stored on display. There is one booth and 3 tables. All the tables and the floor look tired and worn. Outside there is plenty of seating. There is also a pirate ship for kids to play on. Awesome music was playing when I came in: 70s and 80s. The music can be heard outside as well. This would be a good location for families to come have a pizza night when weather permits sitting outside.  Pizza will make everyone happy and the kids can go...

On a quiet day with only our party present, I ordered a small house salad and four pizza rolls. Checked in after nearly 15 min and the cashier said they'd bring the food out when it was ready. Another 20 minutes pass before the food arrives. She said "they" didn't tell her the food was ready. The salad is basic and was probably sitting in a fridge ready to go. The pizza rolls were an abomination. Basically small rolls of dough. They were supposed to be cheese rolls. Whatever might've been cheese had oozed all out- see photos. Clearly overcooked as the cheese had all oozed out. There was no tomato sauce inside and they are basically bread rolls. Unfortunately I didn't see until I got home. Four bread rolls and small salad for $19. SMH. People in our party ordered pizza pies which did not look particularly appealing either, with soggy crusts. The ship playground space is nice though and kept the kids entertained. Not...
