I've heard MOD is good but that was from my wife so I'm suspect

Had Pi Pizza for the first time tonight, and it was very solid, but neither it or Pinks quite seem like a great value. Love Grimaldi's in Sugarland and Crust in the Woodlands. Deep Dish Ben's from Star is a classic.

Also, I live right by Pizaro's and have never gone. I see they have Detroit style like Via 313 in Austin. Any reviews?

The only real answer is Tony's over off Jones road and 290

I think the one real take away from this thread is that Houston isn't a pizza town.

Btw, my vote is for Star.

I think MOD is pretty good. It's like $7 for a pizza, and you they make it right in front of you, whatever toppings you want.

This.

Slices of pure heaven when fresh out of the oven at 2:00 am. Not so much once it cools down, but the grease-dripping simplicity makes it awesome when it's hot. No frills. No BS fancy toppings, just a damn good slice after a bender.
It's the Antonio's of downtown Houston and it is wonderful

I have to take advice cautiously when it appears to be an after club 2:00am special. Options are limited and proximity/convenience often win out over quality.

The only Brother's I've been to is the Hwy 6 location and I thought it was awful. Pizzeria Solario on Wesleyan is my favorite. Two Guys Pizza on Holcombe is close to my office and it looks like a place worth trying. Pizaro's is another that I'm interested in trying.

The HWY 6 location is closest to me but the Spring location is better.

I don't know about some of the other places but I've never not had a great pizza from Star.

Brothers is good when I've had it. Don't think I've had Fuzzy's or Pinks. For a chain Russo's NY Pizzeria is pretty dang good.

On the Upper East Side Italiano's is very good.

Pretty hard to beat Costco's. Not the frozen one (although I've never had it). Talking about the one from their hot food counter.
Better than any listed in this thread so far.

Brothers Pizza is great. Been to the HWY 6 location.

Also, I like Pink's Pizza. Been to the UH location which has always been good.

Tony's on 1960/Jones Rd.

MOD is good. I get extra anchovies. It tastes even better if you don't get your panties in a wad and your nose out of joint when you find out it's a chain.

I like Bombay and Star as well.

It's okay, but eating it next to the lady who has the kid with the loaded #2 diaper and pretends she doesn't notice kinda takes from the otherwise pleasant new tire smelling ambience.

Unfortunately, I'm with you here. I've tried so hard to like Star. Have probably been 10 or more times, but have never thought it was among the best in town. But I did not know it in the early days (early 90s i believe is when it opened??!!)

Anyone tried North Italia on Post Oak? A friend swears by their pizza and I've not yet tried it.

A slice of buffalo chicken and a slice of pepperoni will cure your hangover real quick.

You misunderstand me. I've always found Star to be excellent. They opened in 1976 but I didn't try it until 1995 when I was a freshman at Rice. Don't get it much these days since we moved to the burbs but it's always damn good. Gotta go with the deep dish Starburst.
