Drove all the way here from work on my lunch hour , just to find an empty parking lot. Then when I called no one answers the... phone either. It would be really nice if you would actually take the 5 minutes to update this for Google so that other peopledon?t waste there time driving to an empty parking lot hungry. Really wanted to try this place as I?m a fan of pizza but oh well? plenty other pizza places in Austin that are actually open. ???????? **** UPDATE **** pizza & cheese breadsticks are amazing???????????? they honored their word & gave me a pizza on them. Would highly recommend, be sure you try the ?Twisted Rita? it?svery flavorful & the tomatoes they use are probably the best I?ve tasted!!! ???? Read more

Really sub-standard pie tonight. The pie was not evenly cooked and although I only arrived 5 mins after the text notification... saying it was ready, it was barely lukewarm when I got to my car and ate a slice. I also paid for extra cheese and it wascertainly not provided. I stopped eating it halfway through. This used to be more than just a great pizza spot to visit if youwere getting drunk at the bar that the pizza truck is outside of, but now it's not even suitable for drunk food, because it justmakes you crave better pizza.

Update! Had the backdraft pizza, the sausage was okay and the jalapeños are my classic combo with pepperoni. You can only order... online not at the truck. Orders are typically ready within 20-30 minutes but when busy can be longer. The size of the pizza forthe price was very fair. Pepperoni is my go to and it was great. Thin and crispy and holds up when you pick up a slice you don?thave to fold it in half like New York style pizza. They offered complimentary packets of Parmesan cheese and red pepper flakesmy personal go to add ons for pizza. They have pizza rolls and salads. Can be a little inconsistent and forget add ons to pizzawhich are an up charge. Read more

There were 12 pieces of mushroom on "shrooms to the moon" pizza. There were 4 pieces of sausage. Crust had no taste - it was... like eating a communion wafer. It was spectacularly nothing like the photo on the menu and not worth the price at all. I alsogot a Liege waffle with nutella, strawberries and whipped cream. Waffle was a bit on the harder side but edible. They sadly usewhipped cream from a can and we all know it disentigrates within minutes. It was a tub of white water by the time I got myorder. Look, I on occasion still order from pizza hut and dominos so no stranger to bad pizza, but I won't be coming back here.They get a 2nd star for wrapping the waffle in foil (on 3 sides) to keep it warm and a star was not deducted for pizza beingcold as it could be the delivery service's issue. The clear photo of the full size pizza is what I received. The fuzzy one iswhat, according to their site, it should look like - they show more toppings on a slice than I had on the whole pizza.

Ordered online as per the instructions on their voicemail and when I arrived to pick up, there was a handwritten sign outside... their truck that said they had no basil. I wish they had mentioned this on the website because one of the pizzas I ordered wasthe Twisted Rita aka margherita - so it was basically just a tomato and cheese pizza. Overall, the cheese/sauce of the Ritawere good. I also ordered Shrooms and flavor was also good. But the crust and dough were so? dry and hard. I also gotbreadsticks + homemade red sauce. When I got home, I found out they forgot the red sauce. Maybe I should?ve checked that theygave me everything before I drove off? Idk. I¯_(?)_/¯ Anyway, I tried a breadstick and it was the same as the crust - dry andhard. Just didn?t feel like they cared at all about the food they made and that I paid $40 for. This was my first time and willprobably not be going back. Read more

BackDraft Pizzeria would have gotten 5 stars for the flavors of the pizza and pizza rolls but the timing was so slow, it left me... wondering if I was just starving when the pizza was finally ready. They were so busy that they ran out of cheese and took about40 minutes to prep the ingredients. I did enjoy the dough and the selections of pizza. Read more

Shrooms is the best pizza eva! And being at Celis Brewery, that?s just cherry on top! Highly recommended combo? Update: they... changed the cheese that they use and it?s not the same anymore. Actually now it?s very ordinary. Very saucy and too much salt.Unless they can revert, I would avoid this pizza:( Yet another update: I guess they took the feedback seriously and back tousing the cheese and the pizza is awesome again!

They cut corners and skip ingredients :( I?ve been here twice. The first time the pizza was very good but it took 40 minutes... to cook. I ordered the twisted Rita pizza and it looked similar to the picture on their website?mozzarella chunks and all Thesecond time I ordered the same thing (twisted Rita pizza) and the pizza looked totally different, it was a regular cheese pizzawith basil and tomatoes. They completely omitted the mozzarella?which is a staple of the margarita pizza. Pictures shown below. Read more
