Food is great. owners are sweet but the guy they have working at night is a creep and he was definitely high as a kite, making no sense and yelling at me because i said i wouldnt date him? he needs to be fired. will only come back when the owner is here.

Been going there for 20+ years, still just as good as it ever was, and keeps getting better!

Very good food along with amazing hospitality and customer service! I feel comfortable and welcomed with open arms every time I enter the building!

Note- this is in a rougher part of montrose! That aside, I was really happy with the pizza. Beat my expectations by a long shot! Pro tip: check out their specials before ordering. They have the in store ones and even better ones on the flyers (should be able to find one on the counter)

It's definitely not the best pizza in Houston but for a hole-in-the-wall pizza joint that serves pretty decently priced pies, this place is pretty legit. We were driving by and the bf decided he wanted to try them out - just random spur of the moment decision. We placed an order over the phone and came back around for pickup. The pizza wasn't bad - good crispy crust, toppings were as expected for a pan size pizza! He tried calling another order in a few weeks later and nobody answered the phone after 5-6 tries. We did end up ordering two large pizzas from here again a few days ago, both were good and just as expected. So if you like normal pan crust pizzas, check this place out! I'd compare it to maybe a Pizza Hut but the crust is way better! We ordered a mushroom and pepperoni and a Hawaiian (Canadian bacon and pineapples) and enjoyed them both. The 2 larges (decently sized) was $22! Don't go in expecting anything fancy and you won't be disappointed. Bad reviews may be due to inconsistencies with order placement (not picking up the phone) and food delivery apps!

This unassuming place has delicious comfort food pasta and pizzas! I had gone to the museum district and was looking for halal food that was something different than the usual Arabic food. I stumbled upon this and ordered spaghetti with a meatballs am a chicken parmesan dish, and this was the perfect comfort food to have and the car while it was raining outside after a long day of visiting museums. I feel like it was a fraction of the price for the same quality of food that I would get at a fancy Italian place and because it was halal, I was especially happy to find it. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to eat something different than the same old types of mediterranean food that we usually get halal options.

It Texas awhile to find good pizza in Houston, but it does exist. Right around the corner from our house and shockingly not too awful considering it is in Texas - and you know what I think of Texas pizza for the most part. It's just bad. This one is pretty good and it's within walking distance of my door and not too pricey and underrated and an all-around Good Egg but bear in mind this is only by Texas standards.
