In love with this spot! In town with friends and came here and just died. So well designed and decorated. The pizza and drinks were fantastic, with lots of variety within the menu for different preferences. The service was a bit slow and a few order mistakes were made, but they were slammed so it was totally understandable. Would definitely recommend!

I always wanted to try the pizza over here since they got such good reviews, but was very disappointed. I ordered a drink (beeswaxed boulevardier which was bitter AF and the bartender didn’t seem interested) and pizza and waited 30 minutes and didn’t get my pizza. Had to go back to the bartender and get it to go and that took another 10 minutes. When I went back home I realized they gave me an extra burnt pizza (see photo). Barely edible on the edge. I don’t think I will visit this location again.

This place is super cute! The drinks were very tasty and the fries were delicious. Plenty of seating and a cute vibe. Perfect if you want to drink and chat with friends.

please, let me sing the praises of betelgeuse betelgeuse!!!My absolute favorite pizza spot in Houston that I wish I visited more. The last time I went I thought "this pizza isn't as good as it normally is" followed by "But it's still some of the best I've had in the city" and knew I had to write a review.This is a pizza that knows what it wants to be, and what it wants to be is good. Rather than attempting to mimic city styles like a lot of Houston pizza places try and fail at, they set themselves apart with amazing flavor combinations and food that impresses everyone I've ever brought here.A word of caution: the cocktails are ridiculously good, and it's easy to order more than you planned to. I've never had a drink that disappointed, and their seasonal menu is amazing as well.Addressing some of the complaints I've seen in other reviews:- There's an additional lot plus a lot of street parking, and the parking situation is way better than anywhere else in the area.- The service is phenomenal, and I think some of you are complaining because you don't know how to repeat yourself in a loud, busy bar. The pizza might take a bit longer than other places to come out, but it's always hot enough to burn my mouth so I know it's out to the table as soon as it's done. My drinks have always been made quickly on the spot right after I ordered.Amazing place to go with friends. It takes all the best things about cute cocktail bars and casual sports or dive bars and combines them and adds great food on top of that. I'd recommend to anyone in a heartbeat

Pizza flavor wise is good, but the crust was burnt to hell. Not much of a variety of foodsParking: Hard as hell to get into the parking spots. Too narrow to drive through between the vehicles when they're parked.

This place has some of the best pizza anywhere in Houston! The crust, the cheese, everything! We’re originally from Chicago, and this place can go toe to toe with any pizza in Chicago. Come here!

Honestly I was super excited about checking this place out solely because of the aesthetic but I was pretty impressed by the quality of service they had! Their burgers were okay, but their drinks were pretty good! If you’re looking for a cool spot to hang this is it!!

quirky little spot with great outdoor and indoor seating, plenty of nostalgic tributes to the movie. We tried the wings pizza and burger and everything was very good. They have a full bar and like 10 beers on tap. Will be coming back soon.

The pizza here is quite possibly the best pizza I’ve ever had. The drinks are great, and atmosphere is very nice. My one complaint - the bartenders. They’re so unbelievably slow it’s hard to comprehend. By the time the bartender got done taking 14 minutes to serve one customer (3 drinks, 2 wine 1 cocktail) my to go order was cold. The bar was nearly empty (about 6 people inside) so I guess they decided to not focus on serving customers. One bartender poured while the other one sat around talking. If they can speed up their ability to pour things in glasses, this would be a 5 star restaurantParking: There’s only about 10 parking spots

Waited an hr for a pizza while the bartender acted like this is normal. 1. Dough doesn’t take that long to bake and 2. People around me who arrived well after me got there food. Do better for paying and tipping customers!

Great drinks and food. We had 4 drinks and pizza. Would’ve stayed longer. However, The BARTENDERS are not friendly at all. They didn’t even look at my husband when he would go order. That’s the reason we left. The lady who brought out the pizza is a total doll and has a great spirit.
