Go try it for yourself. I think it will be trouble for you. Doesn't hold a candle to the ole Antonio's Pizza.
I thought Antonio's was pretty bad. Piasianos for normal pizza and rx pizza for weird pizza now that Howdy closed.


Antonio's was okay, but I really only ever ate there because they were the only place that had ricotta. Mr Gs has ricotta, and amazing pizza so that's our go to noe (but really far for you South CS people). As a side not- they also have anchovies if that is anyone's jam.

I can't get down with a Margherita pizza that has dried basil on it as opposed to authentically prepared with fresh basil.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of their Margherita pizza at all. Everything about it is wrong to me. The tomatoes are thin/soggy, the dried basil, and the low moisture shredded Mozzarella. I don't like it. But I love everything else there.

Blue Baker's neapolitan is probably favorite "margherita" pizza in town (they have a fantastic fresh tomato sauce, use fresh Mozzarella, and fresh chopped basil).

I liked Antonio's toppings, but their crust could be tough or even hard.

Correct, no drive thru, but they will have dine-in again, as well as inside and curbside pickup.

Brazos Running Co relocating? Or opening up a second location (in Century Square)? I imagine the latter. Wondering if anybody has the scoop.

It was best if you ordered a pizza to go, and then reheated it by the slice in your oven. If you bought by the slice in store, that piza was sitting g there for a while, and then their oven really over did it when they reheated it.

JUST ATE AT CAPTIOTTI's!!! Wow! Just wow. I ordered" The Bobbie". It's a sandwich that has turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce! It's literally like having Thanksgiving in a sandwich, sooooooo delicious! Also, I tried the American Wagyu & Bleu salad with it, it was crisp and tasty. Please give them your business, you will be thrilled!!! They also roast whole fresh Butterball turkeys for their sandwiches daily. We're so blessed to have them in College Station.

Don't care much for margherita pizza, but Mr. G's has new owners within the past couple of years. They've made a lot of changes for the better. You might want to give it another try.

They have made changes, but they still haven't changed that (which is annoying)

Woah...I think you're giving this place too much credit. I love sandwiches and frequently eat them. Jersey Mike's, JJs, and Firehouse are all excellent places and I have my favorites at each. Capriottis was good, but they're location and prices, I don't think I will be going often.

IBio, a bio-tech company based in Bryan has announced it will be closing its local facility and laying off 50 employees.

Hopefully another bio company buys this building.

If you're ever down 105 in Montgomery go to Tony's Italian Deli. Never had a sandwich as good as theirs.

They have all kinds of both cold and hot sandwiches. I was that direction yesterday and had the Italian beef. The only thing I don't like there is the chicken salad because it has grapes.

That looks tasty.

Agree on the grapes. Those don't belong in chicken salad.
