Have been here many times & supported the Food Truck before the Brick & mortar location on Illinois Street. Great thin crust pizza grilled over open fire. Also the other offering are really good too: salads, sandwiches, pastas, etc. Very good local beer selection and always an interesting rotation of mixed drinks, wines and spirits on specialty rotation. Need a good tequila though! Service is friendly, quick and efficient and the Dining room is small, intimate and friendly. Definitely a neighborhood feel and most times you will recognize friends from the neighborhood, Butler, and Meridian Kessler or Broad Ripple! Highly recommend!

I love this place. Pablo is gone but Audrey is doing a great job! Try the steak sando.

These pizzas are super delish! Such a tight thin crust and cooked to perfection! It is a cozy little place, but friendly and quick!

Byrne is a comfort, food location. The service provided by Courtney was very positive. She was friendly and attentive. The menu variety for Indy Devour 2025 was average. The portion sizes were generous and satisfying, I had the Zeus and there were lots of toppings from edge to edge, The presentation was pleasant and appealing. Love the stone wear plates, were very homestyle. The restaurant is definitely a great place for young families and settled retirees in all in between.

BGP is the best!! Great atmosphere and very great food! The staff is friendly and the Rhino Bar is a vibe. Shoutout to Christina and Penny!

I wanted pizza for lunch decided I wanted Byrne's Grilled Pizza since I haven't been there since Oct. 2022 for an Yelp Elite event. I made it up there at 2pm on Friday Aug 30th. It was a blazing hot Friday afternoon, I parked in back parking lot where there are free parking spots in the back as well as free street parking. When, I went there for lunch it was a slow lunch from 2pm-3pm, I love the Rhinos theme in the restaurant, the restaurant gave me the feeling of small yet intimate vibes. Byrne's Grilled Pizza place does have bar seating, offers daily specials on food as well as drinks. You can dine-in, carryout or order delivery. For, my lunch I had two thin slices of cheese pizzza, coke with no ice, and then I ordered an alcoholic drink called Bourbon Renewal it was so delicious and so was the pizza. My Server was Courtney Y so nice, professional, and she was handling the front from taking orders, cleaning off tables, and placing in orders. I'm glad I went there when it was a slow lunch time, always love their pizza.

Came here since we were in the area and it was a very nice place near the bike path. We ordered the Caprese salad, a mushroom pizza and the California pizza. We sat on the patio and watched the traffic go by as our food was prepared. The salad came out first and the tomatoes, basil, and mozzarella combo were a nice treat on a warm day. Both pizzas that were ordered were delicious but the mushroom one was our favorite. The pizza was a very thin crust pizza, which I enjoyed, but I would order them extra crispy next time because it came out a little soggy. Overall a great, neighborhood restaurant with friendly staff and plenty of local beers on tap!

Pretty sure I've reviewed Byrne's before but we were in a crunch, heading to a Butler game and taking a gamble we could stop here since we had our kids! Unaware my kids were thrilled being all in Butler hoodies, apparently, this is the stop for Butler fans that I was unaware! Perfect for families and it was also 1/2 price wine nights on Tuesdays! There were 2 strong female servers handling the full bar and full restaurant! They did a great job, and we were able to get our leftovers and had a great game, even if Butler lost.

Yep, believe the positive reviews of this place! A friend invited me to come and I'm so happy she did. I'm a sucker for small neighborhood hidden gems and this is one. Located on Illinois next to the cute clothing store and jewelry store it looks very warm and inviting. While I went today (December) outdoor seating wasn't appealing they do have the seating for when the weather is pleasant. When I walked in you are immediately setting into the bar area. But the hostess came up quickly and sat me. I did have reservations and our table had a note that said reserved so they were definitely ready for me which is a nice feeling. Our server came over right away and took drink orders and was very nice and welcoming. Obviously the name says their focus is pizza. They have really great pizzas on the menu and what I loved is they have thin crust snd not just one but several options for thin. I chose to build my own based on the many many toppings they have including Rib Eye steak! Wow! Although I didn't get that how neat that that is an option. They offer cauliflower crust snd gluten free as well. This place is definitely a hidden gem and I'll be back!
