Natalie DiazJuly 7, 2015We had the spaghetti and meatballs and some other pasta dish. They taste fresh, homemade and authentic. Loved this place! And the owner is very nice too 😉 just saying lol- Great sandwiches and staple Italian dishes. Gets pretty busy during lunch, but other hours it's really quick. UH student discount.
Houston PressAugust 4, 2014This unassuming little brown brick building on Leeland, just east of downtown, has been serving hearty Italian-American meals since 1975. Read more
Juleena MastersDecember 1, 2011Hidden jewel! Loved the WOP salad. You order at the counter but the service is excellent. The owner provided recommendations on food and wine & even split the cost of a bottle of wine between 3.
Ricky AJune 21, 2017Nice little local restaurant. Mozzeralla sticks are C+. Food portions are good size. The staff are quite friendly and delightful.
Suzanne EnglishFebruary 2, 2015Spaghetti primerva. So good. Everything here is good. Family owned and great staff.
Jarrod CarpenterJune 6, 2013ALWAYS stop here when I'm in Houston. Great food, great atmosphere and, when Frank is in a bad mood, free show!
Everything is just awesome and great UH memorabilia on the walls.
Gabriel KonigsbergSeptember 24, 2011Awesome friendly staff. Great food and big supporters of U of H. So glad to see all the UH shirts on the wall. Also did I mention awesome food?
Babu TexasMarch 7The food is excellent. The poboys are a tad too small to my liking. Parking can be a challenge
Excellent Italian food but it can take some time on peak hours- Juleena MastersDecember 1, 2011Impressive wine, beer, and menu options at this off the beaten path restaurant!
Thomas WilliamsApril 4, 2011Great food, great Beer, just had a DR11! Come in for their new dinner hours
