Lefty's Pizza Kitchen (East and South Austin)

"Pizza place with real flavor and incredible portion sizes. I think I need to go back to elementary school because I didn’t know a 10” and 14” pizza could feed so many people. The cheese/butter crust on the thick crust pizza had friends asking where the hell I went on Uber Eats to order and the thin BBQ Chicken Pizza was a massive hit too. Definitely want to visit in person after discovering this spot on UberEats. 10/10 eats."

"Y’all. Finally found Chicago-style pizza in Austin that is truly legit! The Bear (pan, of course) is my fave…not just for its brilliant name…the ratio and those peppers are perfection. Enjoyed the Sweet and Spicy pizza as well. My kid loves the thin pepperoni — they don’t skimp on the pepps! A hands-down hit and it’s family-run!"

"This pizza is amazing! The gluten free is the best in town. One of the pictures is the gluten free pizza and one is regular. You can't tell the difference by looks OR taste. Both are fantastic. I'm so glad I tried them. It also passed the test of tasty leftovers!"

"Best pizza I’ve had in Austin! Always a ton of pepperonis and the closest thing to Chicago deep dish you can get! Our kids love the thin crust!!"

"Austin has some decent pizza options, but as a Chicago transplant, I hadn’t found anything that compares to back home. Until I found Lefty’s. This pizza is seriously legit! The crispy cracker crust of the thin and the carmelized cheese of the deep dish tasted just like home. You don’t have to be from Chicago to love this pizza, just have to like great pizza. So happy to finally have a great pizza option here in Austin!"
