Thiébaud Frey of Domaine Charles Frey visits Bufalina to pour special glasses and bottles from his Alsace estate, which has made wine since 1709. Stop by from 4 to 6 pm to meet the winemaker and ask questions.
The wood-burning oven hits 900°F, turning out Neapolitan pies in 90 seconds with the kind of charred crust and soft center that makes Austin pizza people oddly territorial. A 500+ bottle wine list leans heavily natural and small-production, while the house-made pasta and bread are good enough to compete with the pizza for attention. Walk-ins only for parties of four or fewer.
