Conan's Pizza

For our monthiversary dinner we went with a more Miguel-themed place, Conan's!  It is decorated in awesome 80's drawings of Conan the barbarian and other greats.  The atmosphere is very casual and homey, we especially loved the TV in the side room.  Yay we finally got to watch the tele and what was on?  Well the life of Charlie Sheen of course!  Anyway, back to the pizza.  So the reason we went to Conan's is because we heard they have Daiya cheese, and whole wheat, deep dish crust.  Something we haven't had since Uno Chicago Grill in Orlando, which yes it's a chain but it's the best spinoccoli ever.  So we ordered the Veggie Supreme pizza with Daiya and only half olives for Miguel.  It was really great, for Austin pizza.  Austin does not seem to have pizza down yet but Conan's is the best so far.  The sauce was very hearty and seemed homemade, the crust was thick and delicious, and the cheese veggie's were generously piled on.  The only complaint, from Miguel, was that the crust got soggy quickly from the saucy sauce and since the crust was crispy enough to begin with he had issues.  We saved our last slices to toast at home though and they were great so just ask for extra toasty if that's how you like it.  Also, Conan's is only doing Daiya as a trial run and it appears that vegan cheese only succeeds in the University area.  They are thinking about taking it away from the Northern location menu!  If you live in the Northern Austin area go get some Daiya cheese pizza ASAP!  Here is a chance to encourage a restaurant to go and stay vegan.  We are thinking about hosting a vegan pizza party here in the near future to help support.
