We have frequented this restaurant for awhile now (utilizing the $10 discount coupon). However we've decided to peel away after our recent dining experience. Our pizza included a smattering of sausage. If not for the coupon we would have complained, but now obviously this post will do the complaining for us. Granted...there have been meals we enjoyed and waitstaff that has been good, but there have also been a number of times where food and service were sub-par. So...since there are many strong Italian cuisine competitors, we've decided to get off the Giuseppe's roller coaster. Lastly, but importantly...the owner sits at a table viewable as one enters the restaurant. To emphasize...he's ALWAYS at this table. I mean like...ALWAYS. At first we found it interesting and had somewhat cordial exchanges. But now that we've are on the off-ramp with this place...I gotta say...it's creepy the way he advertises himself. I mean...he discernibly visually imposes himself on every customer that walks through the door. And it's not like Mattress Mac (where you are greeted by him and made to feel like you're a valued customer) rather the feeling from him ranges from lukewarm to who-cares, unless of course YOU are the one that purposefully engages...at which time he provides the 'favor' of responding. read more

A great date nice environment! A cozy, family run restaurant with a widely varied range of delicious foods! Good service at fair prices.

Always wanted to try this place as I pass by it everyday. We finally made it our mission to go here for dinner. I was already expecting this place to be good as they have so many good reviews already. Let me say I was proven right. Food was awesome and Preston our waiter was top notch with service. Glad we came and now we'll be back read more

Giuseppe's - Spaghetti Pasta with Meat Sauce - Italian Near Me - Spring, Texas

I dined for lunch at Giuseppe's this week for the first time and found it by luck since I'm rarely in this area. It's located in the center of a strip center with parking in front and a small but attractive outdoor courtyard with two tables for outside dining. Inside there is a small foyer and what appears to be three separate dining areas. It has a "local neighborhood" feel to it. After being seated and presented the menu I opted to order the Chicken a la Shoemaker for $17.75. This dish is also listed on their smaller lunch menu for $14.25 and is the same portion size but comes with a side salad for the extra $3.50. First to appear was a complimentary bread basket and oil for the table to share and we enjoyed it. The bread was warm and buttered. Shortly after, my salad appeared with greens, tomatoes and croutons in a tasty vinaigrette dressing and I liked it. About 10 minutes later the entree arrived in a large bowl. It consisted of chicken breast chunks sautéed with lemons, sliced mushrooms, spices and onions in a white wine broth on a bed of Angel hair pasta. I thought this was a good tasting meal with a savory flavor to the food with the onions and spices contributing to the chicken and pasta. I would have liked a little more food in the bowl but all in all it was a satisfying meal. During the meal the background music was enjoyable and the table service prompt and professional. I would be happy to return when in the area. read more

Appetizers we tried the mozzarella sticks and the calamari both were great I love the fact that they were fried but you couldn't taste any heavy oils like most places. The calamari was fried perfectly and the tomato's sauce was amazing. The fresh bread and olive oil OMG! I could drink that olive oil If you order the salad and you like creamy Italian dressing was sooo delicious I loved it. Entrees: My son has the fettuccini Alfredo with grilled chicken the Alfredo was good it was heavy but it was had a light cream sauce which made it very enjoyable and not overwhelming with cream. I had the salmon with the lemon caper sauce if it's your first time here get this plate it did not dissapoint I finished my entire plate and the serving portion is a perfect size. The sauce was soo good it's not a heavy cream either it was light and didn't overpower the salmon it complemented it very well. My husband had the grilled salmon which he completely finished his entire plate with both sides was broccoli and the green beans with garlic. He said everything was delicious. The ambiance is a little old looking however all I cared about is that restaurant was very clean. Their is no odd smells clean linen tablecloths and great service from our waiter. He did a great job with our refills and providing good service Im so glad we came here we will definitely be back. Sorry no pics of the food we're hungry! read more

Giuseppe's - The Rodriguez family with a picture of the Spumoni - Italian Near Me - Spring, Texas

I finally came here and gave this place a shot. Upon arrival, they indicated they've been in business for 39 years, wow, didnt know that! After leaving, my visit made me wish I would have come much sooner! Their menu is reasonably priced with entrees ranging from 10 to 19, with pizza on the lower end and seafood dishes on the higher end. I noticed their chicken dishes are also around 18, not sure why they're so much. I also tried a bite of their grilled chicken from another plate that my table mates ordered and chicken was cooked perfectly. And even juicy too! They start each table off with their bread, and a plate of olive oil and garlic. Its really easy to eat all of these they're so good. There were a few dishes that were sautéed, so thats a good sign its a legit place. I ended up ordering Canneloni, which was priced slightly higher than my usual order of lasagna at Italian restaurants. Both dishes are baked of course and contain a good amount of cheese. The dish comes with a salad, and I chose ceasar. The salad is decent with fresh sliced parmesean cheese. The entree comes with 3 good sized stuffed canneloni with beef and spinach. Not sure, but it sort of tasted like sirloin. There is a good amount of melted mozzarella on top and their homemade red sauce under that. The pasta was cooked perfectly. Since I had eaten so much bread, 2 iced teas, and 2 drinks shortly before dining here, I was stuffed. I left with a feeling that I would definitely be back. This is my kinda place, not too fancy, not too casual, one location only, great restaurant name too. One negative was that there was no background music. I could go for some soft Italian music which would make this place even better than it already is. Yes, there is a patio for dining al fresco too, if you can stand the heat. One of the coolest parts was upon leaving, they have about 20 jars of various candy at the counter, all of which are free. Some places give you mints, but not here...you get your choice from tons of candies...its like a mini candy shop! read more

Giuseppe's - Very cheesy canneloni - Italian Near Me - Spring, Texas

We visited Giuseppe's, under recommendation of a friend. Sad to say the food was horrible!!! Fettuccine was more like soup with no flavor, plus have NEVER been to a place, where a salad could be ruined, which is was terrible!. Would not recommend going there! Unless a person likes nasty food. read more

My friend and I stopped by on our lunch break, she'd been wanting to try it out. I am so glad we did, their food is absolutely delicious. We walked in and I just felt like I had stepped into a restaurant from the Godfather, which I knew was a good sign. It's definitely family owned and is very intimate. Would be great for a date night. We both ordered the chicken alfredo spicy. It was sooo good! Perfect consistency for the sauce and full of flavor. They served it with freshly made bread and olive oil. The bread was perfection, light and buttery. You also get a salad, I got the caesar salad, which was also tasty, I enjoyed the food so much, I ended up bringing my husband back for date night that same week. The portions are perfect! Not to much not to little just right. Service was great! Staff if very friendly. If your a fan of Italian food I highly recommend you trying this place out. read more

Meatball subs to go! So flavorful and the bread was so fresh! Would have loved it to be a bit larger! Service is always incredible and top notch! read more

I really wanted to give a 5 star BUT I have to deduct a star. Yelp says they close at 9 but when we tried to order dessert our server said they were closed as she set the check on the table.... Mind you it was a little after 8pm. Ummm the food was great there was about 2 other tables there so the ambience was a bit awkward. It was very quiet we felt the need to speak in hushed voices. Food came out fresh like they don't make it till you order it type deal. For a family of 4 to get delicious food for a little over $100 was nice. The only thing that rubbed me the wrong way was not being able to order dessert (that we could have taken to go) because they were closed before 9pm. If hours have changed please update. Overall a 10/10 on food a 6/10 on service. read more

A local family owned restaurant with helpful staff : I enjoy everything I order which is usually eggplant parmigiana or their grilled chicken salad. It's NOT loud and a good place to gather with family and friends. read more

Everything on the menu is absolutely delicious--you really can't go wrong with anything you choose. Highly recommended!

Ordered a pepperoni and black olive pizza. The dough for the pizza was the exact same thing as the free soft dinner rolls. It wasn't real pizza crust!, more like pillsbury dough. To add insult to injury, I got only 3 slices of pepperoni on the whole pizza. 3!! But, the restaurant itself was nice and the waiter was good too. read more

Very nice restaurant. We go there often since I work in the area. Nice ambiance and great food and service

Terrible. Just awful. Upon entering it smells like a musty closet. Once seated the ambiance was strikingly awkward. The restaurant is dead silent. We were very hopeful for the food but were disappointed with a cold sandwich that looked like a school lunch and the pizza was definitely from the freezer. The service wasn't great either we had to keep reminding the boy to bring our drinks and salad. This place is a disaster. read more

Giuseppe's - Quartaro sandwich - Italian Near Me - Spring, Texas

How have I missed this place?! Thank goodness... a place in the champions area with a proper sauce! :::sigh::: I've been so sad not having a nearby go to joint and now I've finally found one. Mangia! I stopped for a quick bite and ordered the eggplant parmigiana. Great sauce, Al dente spaghetti, firm eggplant with perfect crispness to the breading. Service was prompt and just attentive enough. Looking forward to trying the manicotti and pizza on my next go round. The fresh bread and oil with herbs was a lovely way to prepare for the entree. Happy diner here. The interior... well... it's certainly nothing to write home about but that wasn't a priority for my visit. It's definitely time to update the flooring and 90s era wallpaper. Bless. But the food? Solid and I'm sold. I'll be back. read more

Giuseppe's - Italian Near Me - Spring, Texas

We had a group around 15 people. 2 of us ordered the quatero sandwich. We got the sandwich it had 1 piece of ham and 2 pieces of salami. I asked the owner where was the rest of the meat? He said they were out but he gave us double of the other meat which was a lie! There was only 1 piece of ham and 2 small salami. He asked if I wanted something else which I did but was worried they would spit in my food. I didn't want to make a scene because it was a company dinner. I was really annoyed he was a liar and served us half ass sandwich and lied. I ate it anyways and can say I would never recommend this place. read more

Giuseppe's - Missing pepperoni and soprasseta in our sandwich! - Italian Near Me - Spring, Texas

This place has been here for decades. We usually eat here a few times a month. The food is always amazing, and the complimentary bread is always hot, fresh, and delicious (this is the real reason we eat here). My favorite dish is the Chicken Florentine Manicotti, or anything with cheese, lol. read more

Very nice quaint place. Even bathrooms clean. Great food. Nice service. Friendly. Exceptional. Will be back.

Absolutely love it! The Eggplant Lasagna was to die for and my husband loved his Pete's Spicy Chicken and Shrimp! We ordered through Uber Eats and have marked it as one of our favorite places! read more

Though full of locals, food was just average.... My dish was basically angel hair, sausage and olive oil... A house special I would not recommend... The lasagna was not sheet made but made in serving plate.. average in flavor... bread was awesome but only given one serving... Maybe I ordered the wrong plate or an off day but there are several in the area that are more authentic and flavorful for sure. read more

If I could rate this place 0 stars, I would. I was very excited to try this Italian restaurant because it was so close to my house. As my boyfriend and I walked in, we were greeted and sat down, which was very nice and fast! Our server brought out our drinks and said he would be back with some bread and plates. 20 minutes go by, we have already decided that we were ready to order. Each server is passing by our table, everyone else is being checked on. The servers even stand next to our table grabbing extra plates for their guests, and still we have not been helped. As each guest is done being checked out and leaving, the servers are very quick to go and clean the table, yet my boyfriend and I are STILL waiting to be helped. After waiting for so long and trying to be very understanding and patient, I ended up leaving before anyone took my order or checked on us. As much as I wanted to give this place a try, I don't think I will ever come back again. read more

I was really hoping this place was going to be good. But unfortunately i do not have much to say positive. Our waitress was very kind, however she was not very helpful on knowledge of the menu. She was also very slow. In regards to the food. I am not one to say something was awful. But it was not very good. Everything was extremely bland. My husband got one of the most expensive things on the menu and it was poorly construed. It was literally noodles with olive oil poured on top of them. No flavoring. I ordered a pasta with chicken and wine sauce. It was swimming in wine sauce. Too much to even enjoy. The last frustration was that a table next to us sat down 30 min after us and still got their food first. And none of our meals came out at the same time so we were all eating at different times. To the point that my sister in laws food came out after we already paid and were completely done. Unfortunately we will not be going back there. read more

So delicious! Really enjoyed the food and service. I ordered the manicotti and was very pleased. read more

The food was very good. Atmosphere is appropriate. I do not know if this is a Texas things but the chicken cacciatore was lacking olives and capers. Every chicken cacciatore we have ever had has capers and olives. Even recipes online have capers and olives so it cannot just be me. However we have yet to find it made that way here in Texas. My salmon was very tasty. The Cesar Salad could have used more Parmesan cheese. I like when they grade it into your salad for you. That way you can say stop. The spinach was awesome! The roasted potatoes were very good but different. I guess not as roasted as I am used to. A bit mushy. The tiramisu was outstanding! They told us we could not bring in our own wine. They said it was because they had a beer and wine license. That is new to me. Never heard that before and plenty other places allow it. I think they were yanking my chain but hey, their wine was good so not a big downer. It has been difficult finding a quality Italian restaurant since we moved here to Texas. This could be the place. Going to have to try a few more times. read more

Excellent food with great service every single time! Been going here for many many years! read more

Loved the authentic style Italian food, hidden gem. Service was excellent and attentive, our very personable waiter Payton is a definite new routine ask for future visits. I appreciated the light not being as dark as other restaurants for dinner time, I understand ambiance is crucial but love not having to use my phone flashlight. read more

The place smells like my cat's litter box and needs a serious overhaul. It says it all when the owner sits in the front of the restaurant with his bills and mail and stares at his customers. I have no clue why or how people find the food tasty at Giuseppe's. The marinara tasted like it was straight out the can. Lasagna looked like it was stouffers and fresh out the freezer. The Alfredo ... plaster of Paris is softer when Giuseppe's Alfredo sauce cools. There are so many better places nearby. P.S. this place is popular with gossipy church crowds, so beware. read more

Baked ziti, fried ravioli, garlic bread, spaghetti, fried mushrooms, bruschetta and spinach dip are all freakin amazing!!! They need to add more vegetarian options. Small corner strip restaurant. Good for a date if quiet. Good random night out spot. read more

Tasty, but they don't serve much. Pasta is not expensive to make or buy, at least give more of that!

Our group of about 18 went here today for the first time. We meet every month at different restaurants for lunch. All were very happy with everything; food, service. The atmosphere here is very calming and relaxing. We had our own room with lots of natural light overlooking the outside garden. The prices were very reasonable including dinner. Most of all, the presentation of the food was flawless, as was the service. Everyone enjoyed each of their choices so much, we will be going back again soon. The best Italian food in the Spring- North Houston area. They also serve delicious hamburgers for those whose preference is strictly of that persuasion. read more

At the very last minute another restaurant closed their doors the day before my husband's surprise 80th birthday party without any notice. I was scrambling to find another venue when a neighbor recommended Giuseppe's. I called, talked to E.J and the party was on. We had 18 people. They had a private room and no problem with separate checks, bring our own wine without a corkage fee and even a special dessert brought in. I was amazed it was all so easy. We had a wonderful evening, great food and wonderful service. Thank you so much to all of the Giuseppe's and their amazing staff. The party was great and my husband was completely surprised! read more

This place was great! It has a homey/family restaurant feel, and they were quick to accommodate a large group within a couple of hours. I definitely will return when I'm back in the city! read more

Ok.... so I was a little worried with the change of ownership messing up a great restaurant... BUT WOW!!! holy cow the meatballs have never been as tender and flavorful! Also the fried ravioli is fantastic I really dig the hint of spice too it is a nice touch! Soooo. What did I get?? Well it was a toss up but I picked the Chicken a la Shoemaker as I have not had it before. It is a fantastic light sauce with lemon and mushrooms and the chicken is light and perfectly tender NOT OVERCOOKED! EJ greets everyone as you walk door and thanks everyone as they leave. I feel like I am at my Grandpas kitchen and there are a few more tables. read more

Always hot and fresh! Friendly staff and fast service. My go to for homemade lasagna and rolls. Def need to try.
