Coltivare · The Heights
The Infatuation. Thin-and-airy-but-sturdy pies with backyard-grown toppings at this Heights Italian benchmark.
Gold Tooth Tony's · The Heights
The Infatuation. Houston's Detroit-style benchmark: fluffy buttered dough, glistening cheese, creative topping combos.
Tiny Champions · East Downtown
The Infatuation. Simple, elegant pies including a ricotta-and-charred-kale that's become a cult favorite.
Coastline Pizzeria · First Ward
A First Ward pizzeria turning out Neapolitan-style pies and grilled flatbreads from a giant wood-fired oven. The wood-fired oven anchors a short menu that stays focused on a handful of pies and flatbreads done well rather than a sprawling list.
Antonio’s Flying Pizza · Galleria
An old-school, red-sauce Italian pizzeria near the Galleria running since 1971, known for a hand-tossed crust and a straightforward, no-frills approach. It is a long-standing neighborhood spot for a classic hand-tossed pie without any modern flourishes and a menu that has barely changed in decades.
