Inferno's Wood Fired Oven & Spirits occupies a prominent spot on Gruene Road. The kitchen's approach to pizzas is evident in the char on the crusts and the scattered black specs that appeared on one child's order, a detail that proved off-putting to its intended recipients. A particular pie, described as "The Big One," alongside the "Pizza Blanca," stood out for its flavor profile, with the addition of scorpion pepper oil providing a measured warmth.
The dining room offers a certain convivial atmosphere, enhanced by a playground where younger patrons can engage. One patron recounted an experience where a pre-ordered gluten-free pizza arrived late and incorrectly prepared, a clear deviation from the expected service standard. The pesto pasta, however, received praise for its execution.
Despite the operational inconsistencies, some find Inferno's offerings to be among the best in the region. The pricing of the dishes is noted as reasonable, making it an accessible option for families.
