I love their sauce so freaking much. It's so old-school, rustic Italian. Reminds me of my Nana's kitchen.We usually order pepperoni with extra cheese and red pepper. The crust is thick but light. The perfect ratio of toppings to dough each an every time.

The pizza! Omg! I had the Sunkissed Sweetheart and I added chicken to it. Wow!! Thick crust but not at all dry! Yum yum. Definitely going back again. And I can't wait!

Better than via 313 and that Detroit crust insures you have leftovers for tomorrow. Also the meatball sub is S-tier!

Wanted pizza one of the nights during a recent visit and found this place after reading lots of reviews. In Austin, you will typically find some amazing food on a truck and this was no different. We parked in the lot of convenience store and the outside area of a bar. Admittedly, we were a little confused on where it was located but after cutting through the outdoor area of the bar, we found the truck in the rear. A very friendly guy took our orders, gave us an estimate and we were off to grab a drink at the bar. I ordered a pepperoni, bacon, mushroom and green pepper pie and my friend got the Lil Mama with chicken, pickles, Gorgonzola, red onion with a hot sauce and ranch drizzle. They were both ready before the time given and looked amazing. I'm a Chicagoan but love Detroit style pizza and this did not disappoint. We both thoroughly enjoyed our pies and they reheated well the next day. If you're in Austin and in search of a solid pizza, this place definitely has what you want.

If you've ever been a little lit up late night and tried to make a pizza, this was worse than what you created, but along those lines. That's the review. Stoner with a microwave pizza

Bat City Pies Bat city pies was phenomenal.I went on a Friday evening to get some pies to go. There wasn't a wait so the pizzas were out quickly.I ordered the KB Special & Don't Call Me Darlin'.These two were a perfect pairing as they were opposites of each other.The flavors were so bold on both. the KB special was perfectly balanced with toppings but the red sauce and pineapple were outstanding.Don't call me Darlin' was light and so comforting .The best part about these pizzas was the cheese crispy crust - it was the greatest thing ever.I loveeeee that we have an alternative to Via 313 now!Best Detroit pizza in Austin?? It definitely makes you raise the question!

"Go Back To Cali" DOES feel like a personal attack, but in the case of Bat City Pies, I'll accept the gentle insult because it's a damned good slice. It stacks up vegan cheese, artichokes, raw and roasted peppers, red onion, and olives with a marinara base on fat Detroit-style pizza dough. These hefty rectangles are thick, satisfying to sink your teeth into, and definitely good food value for the cost. This would easily serve two, or keep nicely to make a second meal for one. If you wanted to extend the meal with some salad because #health, it could be dinner for a family of four. They are not shy with the toppings, making each slice totally loaded with goodies.Happy to have an excellent alternative to and upgrade over Via 313, conveniently stationed at Buzz Mill Riverside. Open late which is another rarity, midnight - 2am depending on the day.

The pizza was ok!If you're looking for a Sicilian pizza in Austin, I'd say this is the spot to try. I haven't heard of many other shops that serve this kind of pizza. However, if you're looking for New York/Detroit/Chicago quality Sicilian pizza, this is not it. Nevertheless, I think it's an okay nearby option. I did a make your own pizza with chicken, peppers, and pineapple. The red peppers were interesting and new, which I liked. The serving of sauce and cheese was generous. The edges of the crust were crispy. However, the bottom of the pizza was soft, and I wish it had also been crispy because that would have taken it over the top for me. The bottom of the pizza was too doughy and soft for my taste. The size of one pizza is huge! The pizza is 4 large squares, and if you're eating sides, one slice can be super filling. If not, two slices will definitely do the trick. Prices were really good for the amount of food you get. I believe the pizza I made on my own was about $16. No comments on service or ambiance, as I ordered to go. Overall, I think its a good spot to go if you're craving the Sicilian style pizza, but I probably wouldn't get it again. While I appreciated the large serving sizes and good prices, the pizza was just not flavorful or memorable enough for me to want more of. Overall, I'd give it a 6.5/10!

This pizza is a must try! They are not stingy with the toppings and the owner takes pride in what he does and not just looking to make a dollar. My kind of peoples!!!Tips:The GPS take you to The Buzz Mill; park or walk around back. Bring at least 2X people, it's huge!!!You will need napkins... LOTS OF THEMIt's cut into 4x squares but that's hard to tell from all of the toppings LOCAL SMALL BUSINESS OWNER - SUPPORT THEM; they keep the flavor local
