Unpretentious spot for delicious wood-fired pizzas and classy cocktails, Barbaro is a local favorite when it comes to enjoying a quiet night with friends and family. The modest food menu created by Mark Martinez and Emilio Baez features scrumptious build-your-own pizzas, small plates, salads and toasts. Use of locally sourced ingredients, herbs and spices assure freshness in every bite. Combine excellent food with signature wines, spirits and cocktails served at the fully-stocked bar. Suspended dim-lights from high ceilings, large windows and exposed brick walls contribute to the laid-back vibe perfect for unwinding. The prompt and genuine service of Barbaro is what makes it a popular hangout in Monte Vista.
Set in a fun, casual space, Big Lou's Pizza is the perfect dining destination for friends and family.

Besides the array of sumptuous pizzas, the restaurant also has on offer a number of Italian and American delicacies. Salads, wraps and wings are just some of the other delectable offerings. Complement the savory flavors with Rocky Road Brownie or a Cheesecake with Strawberry Topping.
Dough Pizzeria Napoletana is one of San Antonio's favorite pizza spots. Pizza is cooked to perfection in an oven imported from Italy, and served in a casual atmosphere. Kids can even roll out their own pizza dough, so it's a great dining option for families. One of their most popular pies is the Pork Love, which is topped with salami, sausage, pancetta, tomato sauce, and house-pulled mozzarella. For dessert, the Nutella panini is definitely worth saving room for. Although it's on the expensive side for pizza, you get what you pay for in terms of quality and service.
