    the interior of a fast food restaurant
    Ken H.

    Since my earlier review we have taken out pizza from here a few times. This review is essentially the same as the last one. I've changed the rating from 4 to 5 stars and added a comment that has nothing to do with their pizza. They do a bang-up takeout business. We see a constant stream of people come in-and-out doing takeout. Because so few people eat their pizza here they have more than abundant seating. We like thin and crispy so we got the Thin & Crispy Pepperoni Magnifico. For all who wonder what Old World Pepperoni is, it's ordinary pepperoni only smaller. When they say thin they mean T*H*I*N! The first time we also ordered crisp. It was sorta like eating extra thin hardboard. The pizza is messy to eat but tastes good. We particularly like the crazy quilt way they cut the pizza. We haven't ordered crisp after the first time. The last couple of times we've been there the parking places nearest the door were taken but their delivery people. If I were the owner/manager I would want the closest spaces kept open for customer. Since this opinion didn't affect the pizza it didn't affect the rating. Apparently, Yelp doesn't show photos on a re-review, so if you want to see my photos you'll have to click on the "4 photos" link at the top of this review.

    Large thick pepperoni melt -- extra well done
    Michelle H.

    Another pie shop in the neighborhood? A-ok by me -- especially when it's this good. Snuggled in the new shopping center next to The Reserve lies Marco's. I approached this like I would any other chain, with average expectations, that is. Boy, did they prove me wrong! The online ordering experience was flawless, fast, and smooth. You have ample opportunities to really customize your meal anywhere from making sure it is baked to your liking, your crust has a topper, to the thickness of your crust and whether it is gluten full or free. The ingredients were amazingly fresh and the sauce tastes homemade. We ordered twice from here, pizza both times, with the additional salad and sandwich in each visit. The pepperoni melt pizza was one of the best I've had in the area. It was loaded with pepperoni and cheese and was baked to perfection. The antipasti salad was pretty good, but could have used more meat and antipasti fixings as the ratio to lettuce was pretty light. The meatball sandwich was amazing. The sauce was both tangy and sweet and the meatballs had a hint of Italian sausage that gave them extra pizazz (I will definitely be ordering again). One of the biggest crowd pleasers for us is that the menu is much more than just pizza. You can order salads, wings, sub sandwiches both hot and cold, and even desserts. This definitely makes meal planning a breeze when not everyone is in the mood for pizza. An added plus is that if you order delivery, their vehicles are equipped with GPS tracking so you know where your order is at all times. The crowning moment of my Marco's experience was the follow up by the owner Stuart. He called us the day after we ordered to check on our experience. He wanted to know how we liked the food, how the delivery went, if his staff was courteous, and if there is anything they can do to improve. He also gave me his cell # so that if I ever have concerns or feedback I can easily contact him. That's how you run a business! I really hope they stick around for the long haul in the neighborhood as they are my new go-to for a pizza fix.

Plus, he was incredibly kind with an amazing smile. Idk what he saw in my partner and I, but he gave us tiramisu on the house.

You can tell there's a real focus on fresh ingredients and authentic Italian flavors. The food is flavorful and satisfying without feeling overly heavy or salty like many American Italian chains. I feel comfortable feeding my child the food from here. I'm so glad to have found a quality Italian restaurant in Houston that lets the ingredients and flavors speak for themselves. Even the panna cotta was delicious, and I'm usually not much of a dessert person! Definitely a 5-star experience. We'll be back!

I've had Mimo on my radar for a couple of years, but somehow I never found the right occasion to finally give it a try. Well, celebrating both my birthday and wedding anniversary seemed like a pretty good reason! I must say, Mimo had to fight hard to earn those five stars. The experience was memorable, not necessarily because it was perfect, but because it wasn't. The imperfections, oddly enough, are what made it memorable. Let's start with the menu. There aren't many dishes, which is generally speaking a good sign these days. There's really no excuse not to use fresh ingredients when you're working with a smaller menu. At the same time, I wouldn't say the offerings were particularly adventurous. That said, the quality was definitely there. We started with the Fritter as an appetizer, and it was super delicious. The combination of fried zucchini, corn, and that touch of honey somehow really worked! Then we ordered a pasta dish each, under the common assumption that a pasta dish in most Italian restaurants (including the ones in Italy) is supposed to be filling. Well... no! These were pretty small. I ordered the spaghetti al limone, while my wife went for the gnocchi. Both were good, although the spaghetti were cooked somewhere on the borderline between al dente and chewy. The corn in the gnocchi also felt a little alien, like it didn't really belong there. Still, we couldn't deny that the flavors were good and the ingredients were fresh. Oddly enough, we were still hungry, so we ordered a second dish each: the Pork Milanese for me and the Pesce del Giorno for my wife. And this is where Mimo saved the day! The Pork Milanese, with mortadella and pecorino cheese on top, was delicious. And the polenta that came with my wife's dish was one of the best I've ever had. Interestingly, these dishes were disproportionately larger, more than making up for the minuscule portions of the pasta dishes. So, I guess it all worked out in the end! Another date saver was the service. It was outstanding. Attentive, friendly, and exactly what you would expect from a restaurant trying to create a special experience. Then came dessert: the Zeppole. It was good, but nothing particularly special. To me, it tasted like churros made with a dough that incorporated ricotta. Not bad at all, just not something I'll be dreaming about later. And that was our experience at Mimo! I think the review probably benefited from the fact that I was there celebrating a special occasion. It was a somewhat strange experience, with some ups and downs, but we genuinely enjoyed it. Would I be back? Possibly... Four stars stretched to five? Yeah... FIVE Stars!
