“ So it's date night We wanted something different, so I looked at Pizza's places in Harker Heights, and this came up. I'm so glad we ordered from here for our very first time. We ordered the Primavera Meat Lovers, and it comes with pepperoni, ham, and I think italian sausage and bacon, but it also had sweet corn on it, which was unusual but very good. Thank you for making a great date night for us!! ”
“ The nomadic life has its advantages. I've tried every pizza place from north to south Texas. There are so many terrible pizza places and very few great ones. Pierino's is the most authentic, best textured, delicious pizza I have had since leaving Italy. The carbonized edges, the fresh ingredients, the genuine kindness of the employees, well you might think it's fake, but it's not. We almost turned and left upon entering because there were no tables, and we were looking for a place to dine in. Thank goodness they stopped to explain that the tables were next door. Unconventional, yes, but SO VERY WORTH IT. We ordered the Margherita pizza, the Pierino's pizza, and the Fetuccinni Alfredo. Everyone loved their food. My Margharita was so crispy, soft, and full of flavor. The portions are very good. We took leftovers home and reheated. It reheats very well. My pizza ends were still crunchy without being hard and dry. Augh, we are thinking about going back again today. We can't stop thinking of the food. We HIGHLY recommend you try them out. There are plenty of tables and good vibes! Sorry for the bad pictures, we attacked the pizza before I remembered to take pictures Thank you, guys. You are very much appreciated. Oh yes, they use bamboo paper. Save SAVE THE HUMANS! SAVE THE EARTH! ”
“ I love small businesses because you can tell the difference in the quality of the products and the food! It was my first time here today and I must say I am impressed. I've been in Killeen for about 7 months now and this is the first time I've ordered Italian food and it's delicious, authentic and actual real ingredients. I ordered the Ala Amatriciana pasta and added meatball, the prosciutto burreta and I think a meat lover (similarly) but added mushrooms and onions. I would advise to order in advance and be patient--it's worth the wait! Staff was pleasant and helpful! I hope they succeed and can open a dine in soon! I will definitely return and be back. Napoleon style pizza are real pizza. It's good to see a place here that serves it! ”
“ This was my first time ordering a pizza from this restaurant. I ordered a pepperoni pizza with basil seasoning. It was delicious. The service was great. My fresh hot pizza was served in a timely manner. The staff was courteous. I will add this restaurant to my FAVS. ”
“ Went there for lunch and ordered pizza . While we were waiting, we were offered free tastings of their gelatos, which were quite delicious and hard to choose one. The pizza was delicious! Just the right amount of topping and you could tell, that it was freshly made and not out of a box. If I’m ever back here, this will be my go-to place. ”
“ The food is very good. They have an actual wood fire pizza oven. They have actual gelato. The prices are not unreasonable. It's take out only, so no sit down space. This isn't fast food, so order ahead if you can. The food and ingredients are better than other Italian restaurants in the area. ”
“ I was scrolling through instagram and an ad from this place popped up never heard of it before. So I go and try and let me tell you this is the third time we’ve been there. This is the best pizza in the area. We’ve tried the two in Benton and most of the ones and Killeens but this one in heights is just the best. The thin crust style but fluffy crust is a beautiful combination. And they do not skimp on the toppings. We live 7 minutes away and they got two new customers for life. Definitely recommend trying it. Also caloricically speaking it’s the best calorie to portion ratio you can get! Definitely still manageable in a caloric deficit! ”
“ First time in, the owner was so hospitable and he passionate about the ingredients used so we were excited to try. It lived up to his hype! The crust is so fluffy and fresh, perfectly cooked. I really enjoyed their salad it comes fully loaded, and dessert- the gelato is must have. Tastes just like being in Italy! ”
