About Us

header underline

Since 2013, we have been a fixture in our neighborhood, specializing in Neapolitan pizza and seasonal Italian food with a dedicated and ever-evolving natural wine program. Bufalina has consistently been recognized as one of the nation's top pizza destinations. In 2024, Infatuation named us one of the Best Pizza Places in America, Austin Monthly awarded us Best Pizza in Austin, and CultureMap Austin named our Chef, Eli Rodriguez, Rising Star Chef of the Year in 2024.


Our kitchen focuses on house-made cheeses, bread & pasta with the sole intention of providing a meal that makes folks want to come back and become regulars at our spot. We source locally as much as possible and we move with intention and dedication to the intricacies of simple cooking and seasonality.


Our wine program is built on a deep commitment to small producers who prioritize ethical and sustainable practices. We champion wines made with integrity—whether through organic, biodynamic, and low-intervention farming, or by supporting women, LGBTQ, and other underrepresented voices in the wine world. With a thoughtfully curated selection of over 500 wines from around the globe, our list reflects a dedication to both place and people. In 2024, we were honored as a James Beard Award semifinalist for Best Wine and Other Beverages Program, and we’ve been locally recognized by Culture Map Austin as having the Best Wine Program in both 2020 and 2023.
