    We came here for a girls dinner. Considering this was more in my hood, I hadn't heard of it before, and found out that they're a new restaurant. We did make a reservation, but it wasn't necessary. We were greeted and seated very quickly. The service was so great. The staff was so sweet and very helpful. Everything looked so good and I was in a mood to try a few things, so fortunately, my friend is one always willing to do family style! We went with a special they had, that included crab claws and clams in a wine sauce pasta, 1/2 and 1/2 pizza, and the chicken parmigiana. We started off with some AMAZING garlic knot roll thingys, and some fresh salad. The thing that will grab my heart every time at a Italian place is the amount of parmesan you provide!! They were very generous with the freshly grated parm for everything we ordered!! The special with the crab claws and claws tossed with linguine in the wine sauce was super yummy. The dish was light, and I loved the claws, and the parm of course, adding to the tasty dish. The chicken parm that we ordered, I asked for alfredo instead of marinara and the same. The chicken was crispy and had good flavors, and loved that the marinara was on top of the chicken, so you get this creamy marina mix when you eat the pasta with the chicken! And last but not least, the pizza, I wanted to try one of the specials they had, which came with prosciutto, figs, mozzarella, and a lemon vinaigrette, and then the other 1/2 BYO, with chicken, mushrooms, and olives, and of course, topped with more fresh parm!!! The dough was very yummy, and I loved the fresh toppings on there. I think the split is the way to go, so you can get a little bit of everything. We were so full at this point, we couldn't eat anymore and they boxed up all our leftovers for us. Checkout was pretty quick, wish I could've tried some dessert, but that just means next time we start with dessert! Can't wait to come back and try some other options!

    Kind of hard to tell because I was the only one there for dinner (because of Eduardo). They did bring me a beer that they said wasn't cold enough out in an improvised beer bucket. Pizza was better than average.

    Chicken Alfredo and Lucio's House Salad

    I love trying places that I've never been to especially when they are like 5 minutes away. I hear this place was fairly new from the comments so I headed for a mini adventure to try it. I ordered something simple and it was decent. I had to add a little more seasoning to make it to my liking. Nevertheless, the salad was very fresh and paired with the pasta. Can't wait to try the more items to see what's my favorite dish.

    Fantastic food. This place has recently opened, and this was excellent. Go there before the word gets out and this place gets crowded with foodies.

    Lucio's is a new Italian restaurant located on Hwy 249 about 1.5 miles south of the beltway. It is in a strip center end cap with plenty of parking available in front on a well lit parking lot. Inside it's quite large but at this time they are only using one half of the interior. It is a table service restaurant. Every meal comes with a complimentary warm bread roll and butter along with a nice side salad. My meals for lunch and dinner have been: Crawfish shrimp and linguini scampi for $21. This has been my favorite meal here. The bowl had plenty of shrimp and crawfish along with spinach, mushrooms and lemon in a butter sauce over the pasta. (4.5). The build your own pizza with 3 toppings for $9! Yeah that's right! I asked for beef, mushrooms and onions and it arrived on a 12" pie. For $9! Amazing. They have other specialty 12" pizzas for about $13. Real deals! And mine was delicious (4). By the way you still get the bread and salad too. Another visit was for the chicken cacciatore for $17. This meal came with the chicken, onions, mushrooms and peppers in a marinade sauce with pasta shells and grilled veggies. This meal was just ok in taste and my least favorite of meals I have sampled here (3). The veggies need to be flavored better if they are going to be on the plate. Finally I had the traditional spaghetti with meat sauce for $18. This was a large serving and tasted good (3.5). It was a filling meal and fits the bill for Italian comfort food. During my visits the table service has been warm and friendly. I know they are new but I hope more people eat here because attendance has been low during all of my visits. This part of Houston isn't known for many good restaurants but this is one for sure. It's only about a 5-6 minute drive from Willowbrook Mall on Hwy 249. Come eat here!

    Veal Scallopini and capers
    Lucy L.

    We ordered Grubhub and the food came perfectly warm and delicious. The portions were more than enough. We ordered a traditional 9" pizza with pepperoni, prosciutto, and meatball. The best pizza I've had, not greasy and the crust was thin just the way I like it. Also ordered Crawfish and Shrimp Linguine Scampi, it was so good. The butter sauce was light with a hint of white wine. My husband had the Veal Scallopini with caper piccata. He said the veal was cooked perfectly. The rolls were soft and good too. We will definitely visit the restaurant soon.

    Salad and garlic rolls!

    Today was my first visit and omg!! The food is so good and the staff is absolutely amazing . My son got Mac n cheese and I expected Kraft or something ...NO! HOMADE REAL Mac n cheese!! My son loved it so much . My host and server were also so great and so sweet to my son! The reviews don't lie, this place is great, I can't wait to come back!!

    First time here and all I can say is WOW! This place knows what they're doing! Food was delicious and the friendly service only made everything that much better! I had the roasted gnocchi with blackened shrimp and I was amazing!

    Trying Lucille's Italian restaurant for the first time. This place just opened up 2-3 months ago. You get salad upon any pasta dish.

    This restaurant has probably been open for 2 to 3 months. I had my first meal. And it was really delicious. Can't wait to try the rest of the menu. The only complaint I have is that their roles are not the best. I'm used to eating at Adriatic Café and their buttery rolls are to die for. But the food was really fresh and amazing. Again, can't wait to try the rest of the menu. Adriatic Café does give you a bigger portions for a better price. This restaurant is literally right across from where I live. Super close & convenient. The staff is a phenomenal. Had great customer service & great recommendations. I ordered Alfredo for my son to go. I'll have to review that another time.

    How many years has TFB been bookmarked?! Tooooo long…read more But good fortune popped up in Pearland as I was returning home from work and I just had to stop by! There was no line too?! I made a bee line to get my funnel cake before the word spread that TFB was in Pearland! I went to my IG just to see what their times would be for the pop up. First post I see is that they have a featured flavor- the cookie butter funnel cake. With Biscoff cookies and pieces of cheesecake interlingled within... Yall, I'm not a big sweets person and I only bought the large to support the biz, but that dang funnel cake is no more! Gone. Disappeared. Now, not all at once. That would be crazy, but a few bites when I first got it...a few more hours later...a few more today and yeah its gone. It tasted just as good the next day too, so well worth the money for not only the portion size but the creativity. I never would have thought to put Biscoffs on a funnel cake....so glad somebody did! The food truck is very efficient as well. You place your order and they give you a buzzer. They were willing to bring the funnel cake to me but I had parked at a distance anticipating that more people would be showing up soon so didn't want to get blocked in. Very courteous people and the funnel cake - the BEST I EVER HAD. Hands dooooown! If you're looking to satisfy your sweet tooth, follow them on IG and enjoy satisfying that sweet tooth!

I ended up not getting anything since even the dubai chocolate crepe I'd been looking at just looked like it would be too much sugar at once, but will say -- the place was quite packed when we went on a Saturday. There were almost no tables available! It was during the world cup which they did have showing on a couple TVs in there and a lot of people were watching so not sure if that was contributing to more foot traffic than usual (odd to me people would go to a sweets shop rather than a bar or something, but to each their own!). Of note, it is inside a small strip mall, so plenty of parking is available.

Side note you'll need a code to use their restroom. I ordered the split cup of Strawberry Almond Cheesecake and Dulce de Horchata. I felt that the portion could've been slightly more generous than below the rim of the cup, but I suppose the price is reasonable. I guess it's hit or miss like at Marble Slab. The cheesecake flavor was okay not overpowering, which I would've preferred more than the almond and strawberry. I think I wasn't impressed with it because the server scooped more of the graham crust than ice cream. I'm pretty sure that's another reason I didn't particularly care for their cheesecake. The horchata was nice with hints of cinnamon and with the split cup made it taste even better.

This is good execution in service of a limited time experience, not destination-level pastry work. And that's fine. That's exactly what a pop-up should be. The real draw is that everything works together. Vibe, music, service, and desserts that don't let the side down. It feels fun, not gimmicky. That's harder to pull off than you'd think. Bottom line.

Since we were already in the area after breakfast at TJ's Filipino Cuisine, we finally got the chance to stop by and try their baked goods for ourselves. We arrived early, so the bakery wasn't too busy yet. The bakers were busy prepping more goodies in the back while my cousin and I browsed all the Filipino baked goods we really miss from back home in the Philippines. They even had suman, sapin-sapin, biko, and other kakanin, which was nice to see. I specifically looked for the chicken empanada, and my cousin wanted to try the ube white chocolate chip cookie. We also saw different kinds of siopao and planned to come back later to buy some before heading back to San Antonio. We tried the ube white chocolate chip cookie first, but honestly we weren't totally satisfied. It tasted more like a regular white chocolate chip cookie with purple coloring and didn't really have much ube flavor. I also tried the chicken empanada. My cousin didn't like it because it was sweeter than expected--we were both expecting it to be savory. There seemed to be caramelized sugar in the outside of the pastry, which probably added to the sweetness. I still like it, though it was definitely sweeter than what I'm used to. Red Ribbon's chicken empanada is still my favorite. Later that day before leaving Houston, we came back for the siopao we planned to take home. We finally decided to just buy a couple pieces for ourselves, heat them up in the bakery, and try them fresh. When we saw the price for a four-pack, we were honestly disappointed. It felt expensive for the size. The siopao wasn't huge, and while I like the dough, there wasn't much chicken filling inside. For the portion, taste, and quality, it felt overpriced. Overall, it's probably not worth making another trip back for us. We did enjoy the cassava ube suman, and I like the chicken empanada, but not enough to drive all the way to Houston just for those. If I live nearby, I might come back to try other baked goods, but based on this visit, I'm not sure the rest would impress my palate. I still give them credit for cleanliness and customer service, although we did notice fruit flies on one of the shelves and reported it. The staff was friendly, and the bakery itself was welcoming. At the end of the day, since they're a bakery, the expectation is great-tasting, quality, mouthwatering Filipino breads, pastries ", and kakanin. While some items were enjoyable, overall it just didn't quite live up to the hype for us.
