Slick Vik Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I used to like Luigi's a lot but the last two times I went the pizza smelled bad so I am no longer a fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utinga Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I used to like Luigi's a lot but the last two times I went the pizza smelled bad so I am no longer a fan.Yea, this seems to be a major problem of mine also. Luigi's is great or it's awful. Franks, downtown also. How hard can it be to do a thin crust plain cheese pizza with consistency? That's all I ask. Will try Brthers when out that way. Denver had Famous Pizza, no matter the time of day you could walk in order a slice and it was always good, maybe not super fresh but consistently good!

20thStDad Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 What kind of bad smell are we talking about? Bad cheese? Smells like feet? Didn't want garlic? I've only been to Frank's twice but it was good both times. Need to try Luigi's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utinga Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 (edited) What kind of bad smell are we talking about? Bad cheese? Smells like feet? Didn't want garlic? I've only been to Frank's twice but it was good both times. Need to try Luigi's.I won't speak for slickvic, but to me "bad smell" in referencing pizza would be they've allowed one or more items to sour. The ingredients at some za houses are left in too warm for too long prep areas. Me loves a good smelly cheese n lots-o-garlic please. Lol I do hate though, when I want just a slice and it may look fine sitting there but once I take that first bite I can tell it sat there just long enough to "grow rancid" yuk-yuk.Franks is still my fav, especially as I live so close. I've just learned to speak up and have them make a do-over. Edited September 14, 2011 by Utinga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NenaE Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 My new favorite is Russo's NY Pizza Kitchen, super-thin crust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slick Vik Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 I don't know how to explain the smell, it just didn't smell right. Romano's is pretty good as well for a slice but I think Frank's is better since they have more fresh ones coming all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star's is also great when you want something thick.Then again, in a pinch there's always pizza hut and customize the heck out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick_G Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Frank's is my favorite local place.Grimaldi's is my favorite chain, but I never have a reason to go all the way out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djrage Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Roma's formerly located in Kingwood on W Lake Houston Parkway and Upper Lake Dr. Since closed but omg they had good pizza. They have another location in Huffman on 2100. Their garlic knots are pretty awesome too. By the way dont get side tracked by the other Italian location there Italiano's. Their food is the same because they are family and use the same recipe but those people are just rude and nasty. I wouldn't recommend that place to someone I didn't like... ok maybe I would.

rsb320 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Frank's Pizza is good, but OMG have you tried their burger? It's one of the best burgers I've ever had, anywhere. It takes a good 15-20 minutes to prepare, so you might want to call ahead. I'm not crazy about the pizza oven cooked fries, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricco67 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 they have burgers at frank's?? I've been goign there for years and never even noticed it on the menu!Then again, I don't think I've looked at the menu for quite some time.

Triton Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Totally surprised more people haven't mentioned Bombay Pizza in the middle of downtown on Main. By far my favorite pizza place now even though it's pretty expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylejack Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Yes, I like Bombay, especially the Saag Paneer. They've recently been sued for not paying overtime, though. I'm curious to see how that shakes out, because I won't support that, if true. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frheard Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 We had Piola last night. It was really REALLY good! The place was packed, so we sat at the bar, service was great, food was great, just kinda loud because Tuesday is "Ladies Night", and women tend to scream if within spitting distance of a cocktail.

livincinco Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Pizaro's in West Houston needs to be in any discussion about best pizza. The best authentic Italian pizza that I've had in the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylejack Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Yes, I was very impressed by Pizaro's a few weeks ago. I wish they weren't so far out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronTiger Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Title says it all: what's the best pizza place in Houston? As a side-note, back in 2011, I had a pretty good take-out pizza while at the Texas Medical Center, but I forgot the name of it (it wasn't Brothers, and it seemed rather expensive for a take-out, upper end of the spectrum)  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montrose1100 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I agree with kbates2, Dolce Vita has a pizza margherita that was absolutely worth the price. The New York Pizzeria (now Russo's?), in Post Midtown use to have really great huge slices. The last couple times haven't been so great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arche_757 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I've always like the deep dish "hanks" from Star and they have a decent basic margarita. Pinks I found to be vastly overrated and wouldn't imagine paying for it myself (friends bought it). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
