A great date night in San Antonio doesn’t need a $100 tab, a reservation three weeks out, or valet parking. It needs good food, a comfortable seat, and something you both actually want to eat. That’s exactly what we do at Godfather’s — right here on 151. Pizza is a great pick for Mother’s Day when you want something everyone enjoys.
Pizza for date night gets underestimated. People think dinner out has to mean white tablecloths and a sommelier. But the best date nights are relaxed — good food, no pressure, and a conversation that doesn’t get interrupted every five minutes by a waiter reciting the specials. That’s the vibe here.
Whether you’re coming in to sit down or ordering delivery to the couch, our full menu has everything you need for a low-key date that actually delivers. Here’s how to make it work.
Why Pizza Works for Date Night
Sharing a pizza is one of the best things you can do on a date. You’re literally splitting the same thing — picking toppings, trading slices, negotiating crust preferences. It’s casual without being lazy, and it gives you something to talk about that isn’t “so what do you do for work.”
It’s also honest. There’s no pretending the food is something it isn’t. You get a hot pizza, you get it fast, and you know going in that it’s going to be good. No gamble, no disappointed faces when the entrée arrives.
We also happen to make really good pizza. We brought Godfather’s back to San Antonio after 35 years, and it’s the same recipes people remembered — made fresh, every day, on 151.
Best Date Night Orders at Godfather’s
The move for two people is to share a large specialty pizza and add a side or two. A large specialty runs $13.99–$34.50 depending on what you build, and it’s more than enough for two people with a couple slices left over.
Our top specialty picks for a date night order:
Chicken Bacon Ranch. Ranch sauce, chicken, bacon, mozzarella. Familiar, but elevated. Nobody has ever been disappointed by this one. It’s the low-risk, high-reward pick if you’re not sure what the other person likes.
Classic Combo. Signature Sauce, pepperoni, beef, sausage, black olives, mushrooms, onions, mozzarella. This is the pizza that makes a first impression. Loaded, balanced, and built for sharing. Check our top picks if you want the rundown on which specialties are worth ordering first.
Half & Half Specialty Pie. Can’t agree on toppings? Get two in one. Pick two different specialty pizzas on the same pie — small through large. That’s $21.99–$35.99, and no arguments about what to order.
Add a side. The Cheesesticks ($7.79 small / $12.24 large) are worth it — garlic, Italian seasoning, mozzarella, with marinara on the side. Good starter, easy to share, sets the tone before the pizza arrives.
And while you’re at it, look at the crust options. Original is the classic — that thick, sturdy base Godfather’s has always been known for. Golden crust is crispier and a little lighter if you want something that doesn’t weigh you down. Knowing the difference matters when you’re trying to impress someone.
Add Wings — Trust Us on This
A half order of wings is the perfect date night add-on. It’s $16.49 for bone-in or boneless, and it gives you something to eat while the pizza is still too hot to touch. Buffalo, BBQ, or naked — all three are solid. Served with ranch or blue cheese, plus extra dipping sauce for $0.99 if you want it.
Our recommendation: BBQ wings with a meat-heavy pizza. The Classic Combo or All-Meat Combo with BBQ wings is a combo that holds together start to finish. If one of you likes heat, order buffalo and split the difference.

End on a Dessert
Don’t skip dessert. The Cinnamon Monkey Bread is $7.79 — warm pull-apart sweet bread coated in cinnamon sugar with icing drizzle. It’s meant to share. It’s gone fast. It’s the right call.
If you want something different, the Caramel Monkey Bread is the same format with caramel on top instead of cinnamon. Same price, same shareable situation, slightly richer. The Big Chocolate Chip Cookie is also $7.79 and gets you six servings — fresh baked, still soft in the middle. Good if you’re the type who ends the night with something sweet and simple.
Date Night at Home: Delivery + a Movie
Not everyone wants to go out, and that’s completely fine. Delivery to the couch is still a date night — you just skip the parking and the noise. Order the Pizza and Wing Feast for $45.99 (medium) or $55.99 (large), add a Cinnamon Monkey Bread, and put something on that you actually want to watch together.
Order before you start the movie. Seriously. Nothing breaks the vibe like pausing the good part to answer the door. Place the order, let it arrive, get settled, then hit play.
