My husband and I decided to eat there on a whim tonight - we were both starving and it's just down the street from our apartment. I was a little hesitant because I didn't look up reviews for it, but having been there and now reading the reviews, I'm glad I didn't research first.

We ordered the Hall of Fame, which is a "sampler of their four best pizzas": the All Aboard, the Farmer's Market, the Carnivore, and the Cinco Fomaggio. We tried the Farmer's Market first, which ended up being our favorite - tons of veggies, no meat, great flavor. My husband even liked the black olives, and he NEVER eats black olives on pizza.

Next was the Carnivore - TONS of meat. I liked it, but was glad there were only a few slices of it. I definitely wouldn't order a whole pie like this - there was just too much meat to eat more than one slice of.

I only had a few bites of the Cinco Formaggio and didn't get to the All Aboard, because I was too full. These slices were HUGE. The crust was great - thin, but not too thin. The atmosphere was fun too - could definitely be more fun with a bigger crowd and a little icy cold beer.

So far, the best pizza we've had in Austin (although we've only been to a couple other places, so that may change as we continue to explore the city).

I have yet to go in and eat at the restaurant.  After a long day at work, the last thing I want to do is be bothered by a loud atmosphere and possibly loud rowdy kids - that's why I order take out.  
My favorite are the calzones!  I love DoubleDaves, but Rockin has their stuff down when it comes to calzones.

Okay, let me start with the positive. The food is really very good. Salads are fresh, and the pizza (especially "macheesmo style") is great. I have never dined in at this location and can't speak to that experience, just ordered delivery. That's where the positivity ends. The last three times, my order has been screwed up or never delivered at all. When I have called and spoken to management, I get an impatient, teeth-gritting response, followed by the eagerness to do very little about it. Why did it take three times, you ask? Good delivery is hard to come by and the food (when it's correct and arrives) is above par.
I have since trashed the delivery menu, just in case my hunger overwhelms my memory.
