The Dough Station

Let's start with the obvious... Is the pizza good? No... It's fabulous! Perfect crust cooked to perfection and topped with delicious ingredients. My wife, son, & I had the AMC which was great. Our friends had a cauliflower crust which was best I've ever had. If you're new to Castroville order the Paris appetizer. It's not found many places and they do it well. They make homemade gelato which looked great but we will have to try that next time...

Pizza here is great. We showed up at 6pm and it was pretty busy. Order inside and then grab a seat outside. There is a full bar here too. We ordered the Chisme bread, The McCallister, flammkuchen, and The Angry. The Chisme comes with a sauce, so we got the house made ranch. Everything was so tasty. Seating outdoors are on picnic style tables, don't be afraid to share. I recommend the Chisme bread, and The McCallister.

Camera always eats first BUT we were starving by the time we got back to San Antonio so I didn't get any pictures!As someone who is gluten free it's not just the taste that matters but the safety matters too. They were extremely careful and led with "preference or allergy", a crucial distinction for someone with Celiac like me. That is great service and pride in what you are doing.Anywho, on one of our many trips through Castroville we decided to stop here after noticing this place a few months back. My gluten free Margherita pizza was great! I had sausage added. The burrata salad was so good! I have done nothing but complain about the lack of burrata in San Antonio. My husband's pizza (normal crust) was very good looking. I'm so bummed I didn't take pictures. HahaIt's worth the stop! We would've eaten in for a first time try normally but we're on the road with our pups and it's just not feasible.Parking up front can be tricky but there is normally plenty of street spots. I had no idea how cute Castroville was and wish I had know back when we first moved to TX. We're leaving the state but I hope this place and this town continue to thrive! Also they have the cutest cowgirl t-shirts! I would've gotten one but they only had them in blue and yellow.

My boyfriend and I were big fans of Hondough Pizza so when we heard that they were opening up The Dough Station in Castroville we were eager to try it! As expected, the pizza is fabulous and packed with flavor. Try the angry sauce if you like spice! The location is inside of an old gas station. Very cool atmosphere and conveniently located right off of highway 90. We love it!

Very good pizza. And a large variety of white and red pizzas on menu. Seating outside with propane heaters.

love this little Castroville Gem... great pizza, friendly staff, and beer and wine, cant go wrong... all outdoors so dress warm in the winter months.. Very cool place for sure.

Both owners were on site when we stopped in on a trip out west. The sign is what pulled me in - it's styled like an Exxon sign with overlapping letters, but it's a "pizza" sign with overlapping Zs. The fact that it's housed in an old gas station made the sign extra fun - had to check it out. Food options were way over than I expected! Everything house-made and lots of delicious choices. I went pimento and parisa for an appetizer and the "grapes of wrath" for my pizza. Both were outstanding. There's also a small bar on site (all seating is on a patio-style setup) with some craft beers and even a non-alcoholic option. I went with the non-alcoholic beer and it was great! I'll be making the Dough Station a regular stop on my highway 90 trips!

My new fav spot! Great food, great service, gives Castroville some pizazz!!! Love the pizza!

I'm sooo glad we came here after church. This place has soo many positives I won't have enough room to type. Let's start with ambience and service. If more restaurants cared about the quality of your service and be appreciative of your patrons, there would be higher reviews. IT MATTERS! The use of the old space was genius. Love it, especially the black and white picture of Anthony Bourdain. We started off with the Parisa and chisme bread. The Parisa was great. The balance of flavors, and the quality of the ingredients really shined here. If you are a good and honest reviewer you have to be honest. The only issue we had was the saltine crackers served with it. We felt the Parisa deserved maybe a better cracker or some type of bread. Chisme bread with the angry sauce. If we had eaten that, and only that, it would still be a five. The angry sauce tends to lean more toward a chunky salsa, rather than say a spicy marinara. Yet it WORKED! Amazing!!! For our pizzas we chose the Station Margherita and the McCalister. We added spinach to our Margherita and I definitely recommend you try it that way too. I hope they take this as a compliment, this is what Dough Pizzeria used to be back in the day. Perfectly executed, great ingredients, and people who truly care about their products. The McCalister was good. I think our mistake may have been putting pepperoni on top thus not making it great. May have weighed it down, and contributed to some of the pizza being a little floppy and soggy on about a quarter of the pizza. Still good though and the pepperoni was delicious. I've never been a fan of dessert pizzas. We only got it because we craved sweet, and figured we would give the S'mores pizza a try. It has changed my mind of what a dessert should be. I may even like this pizza more than real s'mores. I still love traditional, yet I would include this on my list of all time favorite desserts. Bravo!!!! It's hot outside, so eating hot pizza will not help, but the food was so good we didn't notice. FYI to parents of picky eaters. This is artisan pizza, not Pizza Hut, my kids are foodies. This is a 100 PERCENT highly recommend and we will be coming back to try more of the menu. Heck with the way they changed my mind with the S'mores, I may come back and try the breakfast pizza!

My family stopped in at The Dough Station in Castroville to grab some Wood Fired Pizza after a friend recommended the restaurant. The restaurant has an interesting setup and a distinct charm to it. The building looks like an old gas filling station/garage that has been converted with a modern spin. They have seating inside where you can watch your pizza being prepared and cooked in a giant wood fire oven or they have an umbrella covered seating area outside. While the menu had many unique pizzas that sounded really good we ended up deciding to order "The Local" pizza (white pizza, Brisket, pickles, pickled onions, and a barbecue sauce drizzle), the "Flammkuchen" pizza (Alsatian style pizza caramelized onions, bacon, and creme fraiche), and a tradional Pepperoni pizza. After ordering we decided to grab some drinks from the bar. They had a good variety of beers on tap and a good selection of craft beersand wines with even some local favorites. The food came out fairly quick. I have to say our family eats alot of pizza and this is one of the best pizza we have had. The combination of ingredients made for a very balance flavor profile on the pizza. And there is something about the dough, between the wood fired flavor and the chewy crust. The staff were very friendly and attentive and all the food we had was amazing. We ended up eating way too much, but did get a Smore pizza to go. It was really good and surprisingly it wasn't overly sweet. We really enjoyed the atmosphere and we will be back to try some of the other pizzas and sandwiches they have on the menu. Highly recommend stopping in to the Dough Station if your in the area.
