What people say, in short
Sammataro earns enthusiastic Austin recommendations for its New York-adjacent pizza, charred crust and vodka sauce pie. Delivery is another reason diners mention it. Price and consistency divide opinion: fans may still find it expensive, while critics describe poorly cooked pies or caution that a visit can depend on the day. Strong praise does not erase those reports of uneven results.
