What People's Say About Place

Amazing Pizza, always friendly and just a great place to hang out and enjoy some great food.

The $1 Pizza rolls on Monday’s are dangerously good, and the staff treats you like family. Classic, local, and always satisfying. A must-visit for any pizza lover in ATX. Everything I have ever tried on the menu is delicious!

This review is for the CraigO's Food Truck and is an A+. Their truck was part of a week long art & music event at Willie's Luck Ranch in Spicewood, and was one of the more popular food trucks out there. The staff was very good-natured, and the pizza was served hot and delicious - just overall good vibes and prices (especially for a Luck event). We were at the event multiple days and always went back to their truck.

I went to this location at lunch today. It has been a while since I have visited Craig O's as I live in Leander now. I had the lunch special which had a slice of pizza, salad, and a drink. I also ordered a pizza roll since they were on special. Honestly, the salad was one of the best I have had in a while. The slice of pizza and pizza roll hit the spot!!! The owner or manager was awesome as well. I don't think I ever saw him quit moving the whole time I was there except when he was taking orders at the register. He was so customer oriented as well, grabbing napkins and cutlery for his patrons. Such a great establishment with awesome food, and superb customer service. I will definitely visit Craig O's when I am in the S. Austin area again.

The food is fantastic. We came because we were in the area so were not expecting much but wow. We got the Chicken Alfredo and a Margharita pizza and they were beyond delicious. Super recommended. We'll be back!

CraigO's has been a time-tested favorite for my wife and I. Every time we go the atmosphere is always calm and the food is consistently delicious. Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo is my go-to favorite, personally.

Local/neighborhood vibe, which is nice and relaxed. Next to Sam's, so I grabbed some wings (on special) and a pint ($5!). Dry rub wings were great, garlic parm wings were good, both were meaty

Let me go ahead and add to the pile of 5 star reviews. Came in after googling a bit from my hotel and did NOT regret it. The owner/operator is a genuine New Yorker and is as nice and hospitable as one could ask for. I treated myself to some chicken alfredo that was absolutely delicious. Was offered a free refill of garlic bread. Come check it out. You’ll be glad you did.
