Dropped by for lunch on a Saturday. Was not too busy and sat at the bar as waS by myself. Staff was great . Had lamb meatball gyro. All good and the homemade frIes where delicious. They have a very diverse menu and if I lived in their area would prob come here often with family. Big patio out back and there was a private party in the private rOom they have. Couple dozen local brews on tap. read more

Crisp is fantastic!!! I came here for my friend's bridal shower, so they had the back patio reserved. Every time I entered or left the area, a staff member was there to open the door for me. Anything we needed, they provided. The attentiveness of the staff here is unmatched. The food was outstanding and the drinks were strong. They were so strong that know to only order one next time... whew chile! I will definitely return to this well keep secret! read more

Ciao Bella!! First time at Crisp and it was amazing. My friends Baby Shower was hosted there and I was so pleased at how smoothly everything went and how great the food is. All the staff were so friendly and accommodating. They would step in politely and make sure we had our drinks and anything we needed. Very top notch. Shout to the Manager for being so sweet and making suggestions. Forks Up!! Whoop! read more

Our server was a sweet guy and attentive. The place was emptier than expected and more chill than the indoor photos on yelp show, which I appreciated. Ample parking as well. Pizza was good and nice non-status quo topping options. I would suggest making your own pie! read more

I went here last weekend with my friends for their brunch and really enjoyed the food! Everything was fresh and tasted amazing. I had the "Fried Chicken and Waffle Sandwich" with a side of truffle fries! It was good! The portion size was huge, enough for 2 ppl to share! Their prices are very reasonable as well. The mimosa carafes are $12! With the cute atmosphere, good food and drinks I definitely will be back!! read more

Overall, the word I would use to describe Crisp is "fine"...I came with my parents for a night out and after this experience, we're not sure if the price is worth what we got. Firstly, it was a cold night when we came and we were told that the outside seating was heated. However, the table we sat at had a broken heater. We ordered the cheese balls for the table and they did not really have flavor, glad the mariana was there to help it. I got the "spicy meatball" calzone and my parents split the create your own pizza. The meatballs inside said calzone were rubbery,bland, and somewhat artificial tasting. As if straight from the freezer. I thought the pizza was alright, but nothing to ride home about. It was missing a topping that was requested. Our server rarely checked in on us and when he came back, he cracked a joke about forgetting about us, let's just say the table was silent. Overall, the service we had was not the greatest and the food was okay at best. read more

Crisp - The create your own pizza with missing toppings - Italian Near Me - Houston, Texas

Pretty good pizza! Unsuspecting restaurant with a huge parking lot. We entered and were led to the back where we were met with a huge patio, benches and small patio tables to the let. The benches were on red sand... which was cute but once children of other parties started running a muck... it kicked up a dust storm that wasn't favorable to our meal. I can't remember the names of my pizzas but they were DELICIOUS. Just know they were vegetarian options... oh my. I think one was a truffle pizza the other was a veggie red sauce pizza with arugula and mushrooms... oooooh-wee. Pleased to the max. Blue-crab-bisque rhymes with no-no-no... at least in my head. Overpowering tomato pasty taste... zero crab in sight and a bunch of potatoes. Blech. Truffle fries. Who can mess up truffle fries. Please tell me so I can call the police. There needs to be a concerted effort to jail offenders of the Truffle Fry. Crisp... did well. Gnats, bees, flies... comes with sitting outside. Maybe the can reconsider some of the flowers planted on the balcony? Otherwise, I'd definitely come again, pizza was yummy and patio was cute. read more

Went for brunch with friends and the food was incredible! Great service, friendly staff, and great service. I highly recommend the chicken & waffle sandwich! read more

My family always enjoys our time at Crisp, we love the food and our kids love the playground. They also support the local community by donating to my children's school's auction, snd recently helped out tremendously catering a lunch for the school staff. Al helped out with options that stayed within our budget and made recommendations that would travel well and arrive still tasting great. We got great feedback from the staff. I am now highly recommend them for your catering needs as well! read more

Food was pretty good. I was my first time here and overall enjoyed my experience, however our server seemed to be the only server in the entire inside (had at least 10 tables + the bar) and it took a while to get refills, our order, our food, etc. Next time I'll try the breakfast pizza! read more

A nice little neighborhood place for delicious cocktails, and yummy food. The employees are very attentive, and polite, but lacking in personality, except the hostess. My husband enjoyed his hamburger, and my daughter loved the pasta. I had a salad which was huge. We sat outside because the music was way too loud inside. read more

Great food, great atmosphere, convivial, affordable wine, nice neighborhood spot for friendS or family.

The pizzas are great but you have to try the drunken Irish bread appetizer. Add a great beer garden and it's my go to place.

I was just here briefly for a happy hour so I'm basing this on nibbling on some appetizers, the ambiance and the service. Our server was very attentive and things were smooth despite people coming and going randomly over the two hours. The outside area is cute, even has fans. I had a piece of the pizza which had good flavor and a nice crisp-ness to it. Yup, I just had to use "crisp" somewhere in this review. However, some of the slices had big air bubbles and not much cheese/topping. Thankfully my piece didn't have that problem. I also had a few pieces of calamari which were solid. I'd like to come back and try the lunch specials sometime. read more

We go frequently for dinner and are rarely disappointed. First time for Sunday Brunch for Easter. Looking forward to it. The place was very empty and then assumed others knew something we didn't. While my French toast was good it was nothing to extoll about. The coffee was not hot but tepid. Waitstaff was less than attentive than it should have been for a near empty place. Very deceiving as the parking lot was semi crowded. We won't be back for brunch but we will continue to come for dinner. read more

Saturday in July... Not busy or crowded around 2pm. Kind of dark ambiance. Came in time for brunch but still went with the Gyro sandwich and fries. It is pretty heavy so I was only able to eat half. I also had to ask for extra tzatziki sauce on the side because I felt it needed more. The Mimosa and Poinsettia specials were less than $3 so a great deal... There is also Frose' all day. Great place to catch up with friends. There is an outdoor patio too but we opted for indoors. Plus, plenty of parking. Waiter (Aaron?) Was super knowledgeable, attentive and friendly. Thanks, Crisp! read more

Crisp - Gyro and fries - Italian Near Me - Houston, Texas

We came to Crisp on a nice Saturday afternoon for a late lunch celebrating my Mom's birthday. There was no wait and we were able to be seating on the patio right away. I have been to Crisp many times before and didn't even know they had a patio. It was a nice surprise! We shared the truffle parm fries, which were so delicious, to start. For our main, the three of us shared the TALEGGIO FLORENTINE pizza. WOW! The kitchen was out of the crispy onions but subbed the chicken for us for free. The crust was so chewy and delicious!! The prices were great and we got out with a $27 lunch. Can't beat that!! We will definitely be coming back to Crisp soon! read more

I've been here twice and it's the perfect vibe for a wine and pizza night to catch up with the girls. Live music has been a plus both times I've gone as well. :) read more

Pizza was thin crust with fresh and tasty toppings. Pizza was not greasy and i didnt feel heavy afterwards. Dinining experience was covid style with adequate spacing. Came with kids who were also giving the double thumbs up approval rating. Will come back! read more

Zero stars. Food was nothing to write home about. About the same as Olive Garden. Service was horrible. Never came to check on us to see if we needed refills. Waiter never came back to see if I wanted alcoholic Beverage after giving me the drink menu. Food took forever to come out to us. People that came after us got their food served before we did. Will not eat here again. read more

I have found their food to be great and have been impressed with their kids' menu (they offer salmon!). Love love love their outdoor patio and on some weekend nights they have a guitarist that plays/sings wonderful music. The staff and managers have always been professional and responsive to dining requests and for info about private functions. Valet parking available and parking in the neighborhood. read more

Our server was attentive and the restaurant is very nicely appointed. My food was pretty good. My date's soup, a bisque, was very salty. It was a later dinner which may indicate that the soup had been on warm for a while and may have reduced over that time. The restaurant did not address his concern except to state that no one else thought it was overly salty. read more

This place is very local to our home yet this was our first time going. We went on Friday around 4:30pm. It was strangely empty and yet the hostess asked if we had a reservation. When we said no, she said she could seat us at the bar. I literally had eye surgery earlier so wanted to be in a dim spot, but she moved from bar seating to high top table. She kind of rolled her eyes when we requested a booth. So that's was a little off. Our sever was an older gentlemen who was very nice and familiar with the menu. I had trouble getting the virtual menu to load so he brought me a paper menu. We started out with the meatball duet. It was nothing special. Sauce was good meatball was meaty, but a bit of dry texture. Not bad, but not something I'd order again. I would recommend they top it with mozzarella instead of parmesan. Might improve the overall feel. My husband had the Grilled Spiedini. He typically likes EVERYTHING so was supposed when he said he didn't want to take the leftovers home. The chicken was bland, the veggies were cooked well, but ladled flavor and the faro "risotto" also lacked flavor. Nothing terrible, but nothing noteworthy. I ordered the Toscano pizza. This basically saved the day for Crisp. The sauce was a nice balance of sweet and sour. The onions were sooooo good and the crust was hearth cooked. Very tasty and worth coming back for. After the initial service weirdness with the hostess, our service was quite attentive. Our server brought refills of water and soda quite a few times and overall was friendly. It made up for some of the lack of flavor in the food. Of note: we didn't have drinks or sit at the bar, but the bar looked really nice and there were a lot of people sitting there smiling and having a nice time. Next time we may order drinks. We will be back to give it another go because it is local and family-owned and we like that. read more

The ultimate betrayal. I was brought some of the limpest fries I have ever seen. While they were hot, they were not fresh. They were not crisp. I ordered the burrata sandwich but swapped the cheese for mozzarella. It was just okay. I wasn't happy with the construction of the sandwich. It might be better on a different bread. I also had the saffron arancini. I ate one. It was so bland. This place has a nice atmosphere and the staff was friendly. Maybe the pizza is why most people go. read more

We have been several times now and each time it gets better. Recommended dishes are Calamari and the Caliano pizza are divine. Both times Amir A is our waiter and he is fantastic! Highly recommended for date night in the dining room or great patio for the kids and/or dog. read more

Visited this location today for lunch. I had salad and Beer Can Chicken pot pie. The salad was good with a nice lemon vinaigrette. The pot pie was a bit on the sweet side with a lighter creamy sauce. I was hoping for a better pastry topping however the puffed pastry on top wasn't bad, just difficult to eat along with the filling. I think I'll go back and try a pizza as those looked pretty good as well. The only constructive criticism I have is that the waiter we had was pretty slow for how not crowded they were but could just be an off day. Definitely a decent place for lunch kind of hidden away. read more

Shout out to the manager Jose who made sure I had a good meal. He even told me about the rewards program. The whole staff and food is incredibly excellent. Thank you again Jose for your trusting manner. ~Christina read more

Service is pretty slow but the pizza is good! Got two pizzas : the truffle shuffle and one I forgot the name of. Cali-something sounds like Cardi B's real name. The truffle shuffle was pretty salty but my friends and I all liked it. The other pizza had chicken, bacon, red onions, ranch, honey sriracha, and avocado with pesto for the base. It was salty and sweet. Both pizzas were thin and deliciously salty and you can get your crust either white, wheat, or gluten free. Not bad! read more

Cute spot nestled into The Heights! Ample parking, large menu, and friendly service. We sat outside and the patio space is lovely. Very family friendly as well with lots of kiddos running around. The bar was a bit backed up, but I had a watermelon margarita that was super tasty! Our table started with the truffle fries which were loaded with fresh garlic - yum! I had the breaded chicken for my main dish and I found it pretty bland, especially the pasta that came with it. The portions are large and overall the pricing is fair. I'd come back to try the pizza! read more

Crisp - Truffled Parmesan Fries - Italian Near Me - Houston, Texas

This was by far the most awkward and unorganized service experience I've ever had. From the wait staff, to the manager, to the kitchen, everyone's vibe was just completely off. The hostess just said "hi" upon our entry. The waiter never introduced himself or asked us anything besides "you ready?" The manager was PACING past our table the entire time lol. I wish I was over exaggerating. We ordered the house salad. It was miserable. It was the H‑E‑B mixed greens salad mix with a concoction of pesto mixed with cheap olive oil and lemon juice. Sent that back immediately. For food We had a "margarita" pizza if you want to call it that. And a San Marcos or whatever it's called. Both had good flavors but could kill a slug. There is so much salt in their dough. Maybe in hopes of selling more alcohol. We initially asked if we could have a half and half pizza and apparently that darn near broke everyone's brain. I saw the manager chew the waiter out over trying to accommodate our request. Anyways, over all a 2/5 only because the pizzas do have a decent taste. That's it though. This place is extremely replaceable. Terrible vibes. Looks like it belongs in a small town in the middle of Ohio or something. read more

I really enjoyed their salmon, and the place has a very warm neighborhood-type feeling. Very nice to be able to just walk there!

Cute place. Not overbooked on a Saturday night. Ample parking. They have indoor and outdoor seating. (Dogs are allowed outside.) We started with the Baked Texas goat cheese & Marinara (roasted garlic tomato sauce, soft garlic, EVOO,) and drunken garlic bread. Pretty good. The drunken garlic break is good on it's own. Our server asked if we wanted to add extra garlic bread, "because it only comes with 4 pieces." We added extra bread. (But why don't they just serve it with more bread and charge accordingly?) I had the GET 'EM TO THE GREEK #2. (House made fennel seed sausage with chili flakes, feta, pepperoncini, fresh tomatoes, black olives, shaved red onions and parsley pesto). Thin crust. Really good. (But, I need to know what happened to Get Em To Tue Greek #1 ) read more
