Fantastic first experience On our trek across the parking lot, my shoe fell apart. At the register, I asked if I might get a rubber band to hold my shoe together. The manager produced two! Ordering our Build Your Own Pizza was super easy. To pick a beer while we waited, we got to sample or thoughts first. Always best if you are unfamiliar. The beer choices are many. The staff is friendly and helpful. Plenty of places to sit. Inside and out. TVs for sports. read more

Had a great experience at Aviator Pizza & Drafthouse! Casual spot on a rainy Saturday afternoon for pizza and beer. We popped in and decided to keep it simple and split a large pepperoni pizza. It was great! Nice soft crust with crispy pepperonis. Classic pizza with clean ingredients. We loved the beer wall and had 50 options on draft with availability to sample. Would definitely come back next time we are in the area! It's also right across from the Regal Theater, so would be a great spot to pair with a movie. read more

Aviator Pizza & Drafthouse - Large pepperoni pizza - Pizza Near Me - Houston, Texas

The food was ok. I ordered the calzone and it came out flat. It didn't have much for filling and the marinara sauce was like tomato paste. The east was good . Service was great and wait time was minimal. The place is nice and clean and you can look into the kitchen which is always cool to see. read more

This is a great pizza place that opened up in the Marq-E Entertainment Center. Totally recommend coming here for a casual dinner option before a movie at the neighboring Regal theater! We came on a Tuesday evening and it wasn't too busy. They have a Tuesday special that includes 1 large 1-topping pizza, 1 medium specialty pizza, and 1 order of focaccia breadsticks, all for $37.99. This is more than enough to feed a family of 4. We came as a group of 7 and ordered an additional medium specialty pizza in addition to this, and everyone left well-fed. For our large pizza, we got the Classic Pepperoni. No complaints here, as it's your standard pepperoni pizza. For our specialty pizzas, we got the South Austin and the Ground Control. The South Austin had a red sauce, prosciutto, goat cheese, and arugula, all drizzled in a vinaigrette. This was delicious, as we've had similar ones to this at other pizza joints around Houston, but I appreciate the touch that Aviator added to theirs. The Ground Control had a red sauce, pepperoni, sausage, onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, ham, and ground beef. This is basically a supreme pizza with the addition of ground beef, so think of it the baby of a meat lover's pizza and a veggie lover's pizza. I do really like the crust on their pizzas - a good middle-ground between thin crust and pan pizza. With that said, the crust held up well considering the amount of toppings that came out on our specialty pizzas. The focaccia breadsticks were tasty and the marinara sauce on the side was perfect for dipping. Service was very friendly between the two gentlemen working behind the counter. They brought out our pizzas straight from the oven and cleaned our plates as we finished them. The bar has a variety of beers on draft and a decent wine selection. Happy hour runs until 6pm during the week, which is $1 off drafts and $6 house margaritas. On the night we went, they were out of several of the draft beers - hopefully this is not a regular issue. I tried the happy hour margarita and the Aviator house wine - both were great and a much cheaper alternative to ordering drinks at the movie theater. I'm glad we found this place - I'm sure it will become a regular spot before we hit the movies. While we have our favorite pizza spots inside the loop, this is another solid option to consider that's located just outside the loop. read more

Solid pizza spot in the Spring Branch area. Right in the Marq-E plaza, so parking can be difficult at times. Good variety of pizzas to choose from, at varying sizes, and lots of non-pizzas as well. My party didn't order any beer, but it looks like there's a good selection. A few configuration of seats, from booths to elevated tables and bar stools. Pizza came out decently fast. They're more 'yeasty' than most pizzas, but I think it's unique in a good way; I actually found it a little more addicting tbh. Good spot to grab a slice before/after the movies. read more

Quite simply, some of the best pizza I've had in a while. Not saucy, just good toppings. Atmosphere was quiet, casually busy. Beer on tap was good. They must clean the taps regularly. You can tell the difference. I'll be back. read more

Aviator Pizza & Drafthouse - Pizza Near Me - Houston, Texas

A nice addition to the MarqE area to which I frequent quite often :) We had just finished an immersive gaming experience nearby and this was within walking distance. Staff was friendly and welcoming during our visit and gave us a quick run down. It's got a very modern and casual ambiance, with an outdoor patio that's perfect for group hangout when the weather's kind. They definitely lived up to the "Draft house" name as there's over 50+ beers on tap. The menu also had some tempting-looking sandwiches and salads that caught my eye. As for the pizza (also customizable), it definitely hit the spot. I tried the meaty all mighty, which came out piping hot, I really liked crispy crust and generous amount of toppings. While the pizza didn't blow me away, it's still solid, especially considering that Houston's pizza scene hasn't set a particularly high bar (agree or disagree?) My friends all enjoyed it, and I'm glad we stumbled upon the place. Would definitely come back here! read more

Pizza and beer..... what a great combination! We stopped here because we wanted to get some dinner before we went across the way to a movie. We split 2 medium pizzas and it was still plenty of food for 3 hungry people. The beer selection was good. I got the shiner summer shandy and it was light, crisp and citrusy. As recommended from our friend, we asked the pizza be extra crispy. Good thing we did because the crust was cooked all the way through but I wouldn't describe it was extra crispy. So if we had gotten it regular, it might've been more on the soggy side. We got the Major Tom and the Lazy Goat. I personally love goat cheese so I enjoyed the flavor it brought to the pizza. I wished the artichoke pieces were a little bit smaller. As soon as you bite into it, you end up taking half of the toppings off the slice with it. The Major Tom was also very good, typical for your meat and veggie pizza. This is a nice chill spot to grab a slice with your friends if you're looking for a casual spot without having to wait in line for a table somewhere else. read more

I came to Aviator Pizza & Drafthouse a couple of times. First time was in the evening right before Houston got warmer. Service was great. Because it was a club meeting, I didn't get a chance to explore the menu. I ordered a dairy-free cheese pizza. It was new to me. Although, I didn't care for it much. I swore to order an ordinary pizza on my next visit. I came back today. It was my group's brunch event. Who would thought of pizza for brunch. Hahaha. I came here a little past 1 pm. This time, I asked cashier for recommendations. Because I wanted quick bite. The friendly employee told me about the personal pizza. Sure. I ordered Flying Garlic Pizza with chicken on it. It didn't take long. I started to take pictures and I couldn't resist the aroma. I took a bite. OMG. I was in heaven. It tasted so good. I took another bite... next thing I know, I almost finished this 6-slice pizza. Yeah, don't worry about takeout box. I had my pizza fix for the week. Actually, I might come back later this week. Very impressive. I don't drink. So, I can't recommend any brews or drinks. I drank water. read more

Ordered 2 12" to go, The Greek and the Meat Almighty with dairy-free cheese (luv that it is an option). Toppings were tasty and enough to cover the whole pizza. The crust... 1. It was crispy on the bottom as well as the sides. 2. It was strong enough to hold the toppings. 3. It had a nice chew. Casual dining and family friendly. I will be back. Why is there not a pizza flight? read more

Aviator Pizza & Drafthouse - 12" The Greek and 12" Meat Almighty - Pizza Near Me - Houston, Texas

I am so glad we stopped by this pizzeria! The service was so pleasant and helpful starting right at the counter. After hearing my friend and I discussing out differing opinions on olives, our server offered to make half the pizza olive-free. It's this kind of attentiveness that defined our time eating there and that really stood out to me. There was plenty of seating and the interior was neat and tidy. The pizza came out promptly and was delicious! The crust was both crunch and soft and chewy, while the toppings were tasty and went well together. We had the Ground Control pizza and I highly recommend it. The 12 inch size was perfect for my friend and I to share. A great place to go when you're craving a great slice! read more

This is my second time at Aviator. We ordered the Meat Almighty pizza and honey Sriracha brussel sprouts. We added jalapenos to our pizza for $2.40 and they were very generous with the amount that was given. You can order by scanning the QR at the table or ordering at the register. It's a good choice especially if you want to go somewhere chill with pizza/beer. read more

The place had a lot of space to sit. The bathrooms were clean and the beer list was big. We had an array of items off the menu. Came here with a big group and enjoyed everything family style. The wings come in one favor but were so juicy and fell off the bone. The vegan cheese was so creamy you could drink it. The meat almighty was so full of toppings you needed a fork. The cheese focaccia was Devine we had none left. We absolutely loved our experience here. read more

My very first pizza was delicious. I tried the Austin Pizza not knowing what to expect. Once I took my first bite I was hooked. It was unexpectedly delicious! I have to come back again. By the way, the Austin pizza has kale and feta cheese. I can't remember. I took a picture. The service was great. The place has good seating and a great atmosphere. read more

This place rocks!! I spotted a sign when I was visiting a near by establishment and the "drafthouse" portion of their name lassoed me in. The vibe is casual. Large long tables and booths. Kids running amok. I was a tad concerned I couldn't get my drink on but I pushed on. I was pleasantly surprised at the cashier station. GUYS they have 50 freaking beers/drinks on tap! Best part is they said I could sample to my hearts content. I tried (4) different ones but eventually settled on a tired a true, buckle bunny. Honorable mention to the house made margarita on tap. My husband loved the Galveston bay blueberry blonde. Jose was my cashier aka bartender and he was so friendly and I welcoming. We will definitely be back. read more

Aviator Pizza & Drafthouse is an Austin based pizza and beer spot that has recently made it's Houston debut. From what I read, they've been around for a minute and is a popular spot in the Hill Country. The name gives off plane and aviation vibes, but I didn't really see any theme in this restaurant. This location is in the Houston MarqE entertainment complex which has really made some changes with lots of cool new entertainment and food spots. We just finished up at the Immersive Gamebox nearby and was looking for lunch options. This place was in my peripheral so we decided to check it out. It is super spacious inside with lots of seating inside. They also have patios in the front and back of the restaurant. Customer service was really good. The gals up front had no problem giving suggestions and let us try samples of the brews before purchase. I'm sure you can figure out by the name of this place that they specialize in pizza and beer. The pizzas are made to order and they got quite a few options to choose from. If you aren't feeling a pizza, they also got breadsticks, salads, grinder sandwiches, calzones, and dessert. For their beer selection, they proudly serve around 50 Texas beers only. As much as I like beers from all over, it was cool to see them support locally within our great state. We started off with the Zilker salad which had arugula, greens, pecans, cranberries and goat cheese. It was a great salad that went well with the heavy, rich pizzas. Pizza wise, we went with the Flying Garlic and the Meat Almighty with added jalapenos. The pizzas came out piping hot and they looked really good. One thing they do not do here is skimp on toppings. That being said, with all the toppings, they should spread it out more evenly as the pizza was center heavy and floppy. I had to fork and knife it initially until it cooled down a little. Both pizzas were delicious. I did like the crust and the slight char it had. The Flying Garlic was a little different. Yes, garlic is in the name, but we were not expecting whole cloves thrown on the pizza. I am a garlic fiend and had no problem with it, but it might be too much for some. Maybe sliced garlic would be a better choice. The beers were nice and cold. They also have lots of bottled drink options and have Stubborn soda and a few big brands as fountain drinks. Overall, I'm glad we gave this spot a chance. We almost didn't because of how new it was and lack of alot of reviews. It's a solid spot and I would come back again when in the area. read more

There's a new pizza parlor located in the bustling MarqE shopping Entertainment Center. Aviator Pizza is a Texas based pizza chain with a handful of other locations I was impressed by the shear amount of options. Firstly, you can sit inside or on the covered patio/beer hall looking space. There are dozens of beers and ciders on tap to choose from. The pizza options are plentiful. Pick one of their signature pizzas, or build your own. Also, there are many size options including a personal pan option The staff were very pleasant and helpful. The pizza itself was fine. I was hoping for a bit more flavor, and the crust tasted a little doughy. The beer was good. And the ambiance was nice. The interior has less space to sit, but feels a little trendier than the exterior covered patio which feels a little bare. Also, each time I've stopped by the patio is virtually unused, and with such an open concept, and it being front and center when you walk up, it looks either unfinished or like it's a ghost town Some tips: There is a loyalty program that will give you 2% back in dining credits if you're a member. Also, the beer menu being so extensive and overwhelming., ask for samples. The staff is more than happy to hook you up with a taste. Lastly, since you're in the area maybe walk across the street and take in a movie at Regal Cinema Cheers!! read more

Aviator Pizza & Drafthouse - Pizza Near Me - Houston, Texas

Aviator Pizza is a casual pizza spot with a large seating area perfect for family's and large group gatherings. Table service would be nice as it appears they have the staff numbers to support it but this is not part of the business model as of yet. The pizza is light, tasty and the beer selections are vast and unique with samples offered. I cannot recommend the salads as they are extremely basic and ours were served after we finished the pizza unfortunately. If you're looking for a clean and causal pizza spot that is family friendly, Aviator Pizza is a good option. read more

This casual restaurant is easily located at the Marq-E where there are many types of establishments including restaurants, entertainment, retail, and more. The space is large and has a lot of potential. The entrance to the restaurant is actually located on the left side, where upon entrance, is a counter to place your order. It seemed quite lonely on a midweek evening with less than a handful of customers. There is a nice selection of beverages to choose from like cocktails, sodas, and beers on tap. The menu includes items such as sandwiches, calzones, pizzas, and salads, plus a very small selection of apps and dessert. We ordered a soda and a beer to go with our 9" Meat Almighty Pizza and the Italian Grinder Sandwich with a side of sriracha honey brussels served chilled. The pizza had a red sauce base and topped with pepperoni, sage sausage, ground beef, pit smoked ham, and bacon. The size is for an individual without a big appetite. I say that because it is quite small and the toppings do not fit too well on it, as the amount of cheese was minimal. The flavor was also not memorable, and dough that is bread like. Not a fan of the pizza we had but the Italian sandwich was better. The Italian Grinder Sandwich is loaded with salami, pit smoked ham, house pepperoni, mozzarella, lettuce, roma tomato, red onion, mayonnaise, mustard, and Italian dressing. This sandwich was much more flavor packed and appetizing. The bread also held up well. The side sriracha honey brussels were chilled...quite interesting as I've never had my brussel sprouts served cold. Tasted like a slightly spicy and slightly sweet salad. When we sat ourselves, we noticed that each table had a QR code on it...to place an order at the table. I guess that's another way to order at the restaurant. No one really comes by to check on you after you've received your food and drink. You can watch the kitchen through the windows right next to the booths. With an aviation theme in restaurant, I didn't see a story or anything else to go with the vibe except for walls with airplane photos, so I am not sure what the restaurant is trying to go for. While our experience wasn't particularly special, it wasn't awful either...just wished that it could've been more memorable. I'm not yearning to head back anytime soon but if someone invites me to give it another shot, I won't refuse. read more

Ok. So you sit down and order off QR code on table. Pizza came out really quick. But I had accidentally ordered pineapple and banana peppers. Pineapple and pepperoni right next to each other.

Looking forward to coming back for geeks who drink! read more

2nd time here, will be the last. Decided to grab a pizza here before a movie. Stood in line to place an order. Got up to the register and the employee walks away, ok seems he needs to take food out. A few mins go buy, he comes back apologizes says he will be right back. Another 3-5 mins goes by, still waiting, he's still in the back. At the same time see a bunch of other employees who could be delivering to tables just walking around with nothing in their hands. Ok well, I guess it's Red Robin night. Pizza is actually decent here from my first visit which was late at night, but it seems they are not prepared to deal with being busy. Management needs to be there on the weekends and see what happens when they get busy and fix it. My buddy and I were not the only ones walking out due to lack of service. read more

Solid pizza with a great, friendly staff. We came by for an early dinner on a weeknight and found a few families already inside around 5 PM. There's a lot of space inside the restaurant with many large tables for big groups. There's also a really nice covered outdoor area with TVs as well. You can order at the front but they also have QR codes at each table where you can order on your phone so you don't have to wait for a waiter to come by. We tried the house salad and a large custom pizza. The salad was $11 but was enough for maybe 2-3 people to share. Tasted fresh and was a nice side/app! The large pizza was enough to feed ~2-3 adults. The pizza dough and sauce is not overly salty and actually had more of a sweet flavor to me. I enjoyed it and it came out pretty fast! The price is a little high for pizza but nice to have a decent pizza joint not too far out of town. Probably a nice place to come hang with friends and have some beers as well. Can't tell if the very large tables made the pizza itself look small but for ~$25/pizza I would've expected a larger pie. The staff was very friendly and we came with two small children. They changed one of the TVs to play cartoons so the kids could watch while they ate without us even asking! Very thoughtful of the staff. read more

My second time at this location, and while it seems like they've gotten the texture and overall feel of a calzone down (not too soggy), they still forget to check if items are added or excluded by the customer. Because of this, my partner had to wait until everyone was basically all done with their food before eating. Additionally, they could improve on the service aspect of bringing out a dessert last - if a table has ordered salads, pizzas/calzones, and a dessert, why bring that out before all the entrees are at the table? Lastly, there was an obnoxious drilling on the ceiling going on for the 2+ hrs we were there. Talk about an uncomfortable dining experience. Hopefully these are just "early opening" jitters. Your mileage may vary. read more
