This was an extremely disappointing experience, on many levels. We visited on a Friday evening. At this time, it was not as busy. It took 25 minutes from the time we were seated to even be offered a drink, and that was because we asked. It's not a great start. Our food surprisingly took a long time to come out. Our food was unacceptable. The crab bisque tasted sour and couldn't be eaten, and we sent it back. Let me say, it takes a lot for me to send food back. Both of our pizzas were cold. Not warm. Cold! We were so hungry and frustrated at this point that we ate them cold. Our server, who has been previously mentioned in a negative light in past reviews by others, was terrible. His mannerisms, attitude, and sheer lack of care and attention were the final deal breakers for me. I truly don't care if this restaurant had a good vibe or looks decent inside and out. Houston has way too many incredible options. We do not have to accept these experiences. I will definitely never return to this restaurant!

A friend and I went today for brunch and we were super pleased with the food. It was so good! He ordered the breakfast sandwich from the brunch menu and I had the eggs and pancakes.
The tomato bisque and sandwich was amazing! Literally the best tomato bisque I’ve ever tasted!
The eggs and hash browns and bacon were really good as well.
We liked our server Devon who was very polite and provided good service.
I would definitely go back in the future when I want brunch again and a good overall experience.

Goat cheese and marinara is AMAZING!!! We had the meatballs too. Great wine selection. We frequent Crisp when we come to town.

I can’t say enough good things about this local gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and a genuine smile. The management really goes above and beyond to ensure every guest feels like part of the family.
The service was impeccable! Our server was attentive without being intrusive, and they took the time to recommend their favorite dishes. And let me tell you, the food was nothing short of spectacular. The short rib practically melted in my mouth, and the rich flavors of the house red sauce were to die for. We also tried the carrot cake for dessert, and it was the perfect sweet ending.
The cozy atmosphere, combined with the fantastic food and friendly staff, makes this place a must-visit. It’s clear that they pour their heart into everything they do. If you’re looking for an authentic Italian dining experience, look no further! I can’t wait to come back!

This is a great neighborhood pizza spot if you're looking for mimosas and pizza brunch.
The patio in the back is spacious and great for large groups. The pizza itself is good for a daytime group setting but I wasn't blown away.
Then brunch menu itself is very short and limited options. the hash was the best item in my opinion.
The Baked Texas Goat cheese and marinera was really great and our favorite. It's a good portion to share for 4 people.
The calzones were the last item we picked and it kinda bland.
