In the heart of Central Texas, where barbecue reigns supreme, and pizza joints are often an afterthought, one family-run pizzeria in Belton has been quietly flipping the script — one blistering, live-oak wood-fired Neapolitan pie at a time. 🔥
Fire Street Pizza was born from a backyard obsession, built by husband-and-wife team Jason and Alis Brumbalow, who turned their passion for Neapolitan-style pizza into Central Texas’s most exciting wood-fired destination.
How Fire Street Pizza Won Belton’s Hearts
Founded in 2017 by Jason and Alis Brumbalow, the restaurant’s origin story is one of those genuinely great American small business tales — a backyard wood-fired oven, years of recipe refinement, a thriving food truck run, and ultimately, the courage to open a brick-and-mortar destination restaurant that put Belton on Central Texas’s dining map.
The secret weapon from day one was the oven itself — a blistering-hot, live-oak wood-fired pizza oven that produces a crisp, lightly chewy crust with a hint of smoke that, as the owners put it, “allows the full flavor of the pizza to jump off the plate.”
In a Texas pizza scene increasingly crowded with chains and conveyor belt ovens, that commitment to artisan process was an instant differentiator.
The experience beyond the food sealed the deal for the wider community. Live music Thursday through Saturday, yard games and a pet-friendly patio, Texas craft beers and wines, and a neighborhood hangout energy that made Fire Street feel less like a restaurant visit and more like the best backyard party in Belton.
Fire Street Pizza has built something rare in small-town Texas — a wood-fired pizza destination with the soul of a family kitchen, the creativity of a craft restaurant, and the warmth of a neighborhood gathering place that Belton is genuinely proud to call its own.
