About
The Village Pizzaria Slice House & Gelato Bar
Our family is one of the oldest restaurant families still in business in Central Texas today, serving up homemade cuisine for more than 85 years. Family patriarch Antonio P. Castillo, Sr. started the Castillo’s restaurant legacy when he opened The Aztec Cafe in the early 1930s in downtown Waco. Antonio and his wife Josephine were blessed with seven children (four sons and three daughters), all of whom were involved in the family business at one time or another. In 1948, Antonio and his family opened a new restaurant, El Patio, located on 16th Street in Waco. Four years later, classic Italian “Pizza Pie†would be introduced to Waco for the very first time, happily made at the Castillo family’s restaurant! An Italian airman serving at Waco’s James Connally Air Force Base befriended Antonio and taught the family the proper art of making pizza, from the dough, sauce and cheese, to baking it perfectly until bubbly. They also learned proper techniques for making lasagna, spaghetti and manicotti. The popularity of their new cuisine offerings of Italian & Tex-Mex led to the renaming of the restaurant The Italian Village in 1952, a name that remained until its closing in 1986 after more than 35 years of quality service. Welcome to The Village Pizzeria and Gelato Bar at Union Hall, where we are proudly continuing and building upon our family’s Italian pizza heritage.

Got two slices of pizza to go thought it was strange how fast I got it this time when I got home they both were ice cold

Lots of options but settled on this place. I was not disappointed. They were really busy but the young lady taking orders was a gem. We ordered the giant slices, meatballs and the ginger brew. Everything was delicious. The hot honey was my favorite. If you like a little spice pared with a bit of sweetness this is for you. The flying pig was my cousins choice. I liked it but pulled the pineapple off. The meatballs are ample and very tasty. The ginger brew has a hint of spice and is amazing. We ate there and it was a nice little atmosphere. My rating of 4 is due to the food pickup process. They take your number but it's not to page or call. It's placed on the tray. I had a lady pick up some of my order because she ordered the same slice of pizza. I pointed at my phone number and she was trying to tell me she ordered hot honey. I wish they would just use an order number. Also I ordered the 4 meatballs but was initially given 3. They corrected it and handed me 4 hot meatballs. I get it. They were busy. It's logistics and can be easily tweaked. But definitely the difference in a 3-4 or 5 rating. However it would not deter me from returning for more hot honey if I were in town.
