1. Coltivare Pizza & Garden
A simple room where they focus on modern Italian cooking, using the freshest of ingredients including some that they grow in their own garden.
No fuss, no crazy toppings but just really well executed and presented good food. Once you taste a pizza here once you’ll be hooked for life.
2. Frank’s Pizza
This Houston pizza joint is the stuff of legend with locals. You can eat in where they also serve sandwiches, subs, wings and salads but it’s all about the pizza when you visit here.

3. Piola
Founded by 2 brothers in 1986 they are all about bringing the very best Italian food to the USA. Their pasta, meatballs and cocktails are all the stuff of legend but really you come here for the pizza.
Thin, crispy and perfectly charred it melts into your mouth like molten lava. Divine.
4. Vinny’s
They deliver whole pies or you can call in and grab them by the slice. Best enjoyed the second they come out of the oven piping hot and with simple pepperoni topping. When pizza is this good it really doesn’t need much more than that.
Simple perfection.

Prefer your pizza served Chicago deep dish style and need to get your fix when in the South?
Star pizza is the spot for you with their pies being some of the tastiest you’ll find outside Chicago but do make sure you come with a serious appetite.

They’ve been in business since 1980 making pizza with droves of happy customers so that tells you all you need to know.
If you want a double treat start with the wings and then try take on one of their delicious and mouthwatering pizzas. You won’t regret it.

Proper authentic cooking with some great Italian classics on the menu including salads, pastas and meat dishes. The real star of the show though is the pizza, which comes on a traditional style crust. It’s wonderfully crisp and cooked in under a couple of minutes in their piping hot oven.
