I lub the Pink's and the Pink's lubs me! I was stoked to find out they were setting up shop just blocks away from my place and it's soooooooooooo delish it's like a raver orgy in my mouth. ~ Unce unce unce unce unce~ * Fist pump Fist pump* So far I've had the Rocko and ordered the Freschetta pizza last night. I called it in and walked over there with my bf and pup Cookie. We waited a bit.. and waited.. turned out they forgot to put the spinach on there.. no big woop but they fixed it and gave it to me free o charge. Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! *note to single ladies* the glass windows are a perk cause they got some tasty eye candy in there. Meow! read more

Came in here after leaving Aerosol Warfare, my Pnut and I were practically melting...... The place is very small, but cozy. I like what they did to the inside of this place, there's a magnetic wall on one side with a mini basketball hoop, which my pnut enjoyed, but i was really afraid that he was going to dunk a little too hard. The people behind the counter, very nice, not at all snobbish hipsters like i have heard, yes they were all tattoo'd out with crazy colored hair, but that's what I liked about them. It actually reminded me of a small pizza joint in the Union Square called Blondies, if your ever in SF, go to Blondies! The pizza, it was really very good, I would say even better than Luigis! We ordered a plain cheese and pepperoni (thats all the Pnut likes to eat) It was good,he loved it, i loved it. It was 15.00 for a 12 inch pizza and 2 drinks, i guess thats about average. We will def come back to Pink's =) read more

I was tempted to give Pink's a 2-star review just because I appreciate that they offer a gluten free dough. However, lots of places have jumped on board the GF trend, so I no longer see it as an especially generous menu option. For my money, Pink's Pizza is a waste of time if any of these conditions applies to your situation: 1. Your time is valuable and limited. Several times, I've walked in only to have the young men who consistently operate the store ignore me and continue chatting with a friend or typing on the computer. I don't expect red carpet treatment, nor do I want it. But acknowledging my presence by saying, "Hello, I'll be with you in a minute," harms no one. 2. You like to receive what you actually ordered. The last time I placed an order for a slice with three veggie ingredients, I got a slice with pepperoni. The time before that, they gave the wrong pizza to a customer who'd had to drive back to the restaurant to pick up the correct one. In the meantime, they'd given his correct order to someone else, who had ordered something different. 3. You like to eat and digest in a mild climate. Every time I've been in, they've been blaring esoteric punk and other avant-garde music. It's impossible to have a conversation with anyone you might have brought in with you, and even if you just want to chill out with your phone and have a solo lunch, it's difficult to concentrate due to the music. Look, I get it. It's a pizza joint run by teens, not Da Marco's. But, if you charge $5 for a slice of pizza, consistently can't get the order right, and maintain an atmosphere that isn't pleasant, something is wrong. In case anyone in a supervisory role at Pink's happens to read this--it always appears pretty Lord of The Flies in there to me--Angela V.'s review has some fantastic, practical revisions you could make to better your customers' experience. read more

This is pricey pizza, make no mistake, so if you want "regular price, four bucks four bucks four bucks," then order from somewhere else--these are premium ingredient pizzas, and you pay for that quality. To me, it's clearly worth it. I was a fan of the Pink's in the Heights, and I'm so glad they opened one in Montrose as well. The delivery guys (and the counter staff as well) probably have more tattoos and perforations per capita than any other pizza delivery franchise in town, but they're efficient and friendly, and its never too freaky to invite them into your house while they deliver your food, so get over it, people--ink is sexy. They have some terrific flavor combinations too (talking about the pizzas now). I'm very partial to Luigi (pesto, gorgonzola, portobello mushrooms and apples), and the Double Down (Bacon! There's other stuff on it, too, but I repeat, BACON!!!) I wish their crust were thinner, or that they cooked their pies in a brick oven and not on a conveyor so that they'd be crispier, or that they sold their gigantic 3' diameter "by the slice" pizzas by the pie and not just by the slice--the slices (one's a meal for most smaller eaters) have thinner, crispier crust and are excellent. But even though the crust isn't my favorite in town, the creative combinations of quality toppings (and the fact that they can deliver in under an hour) has make Pink's my go-to pizza place over my decades-long former favorite, Star Pizza. Their salads, though, are lame and sucky. A real pity. Star Pizza still kicks their asses with the large Caesars they deliver, and I often order the pizza from Pink's and the salad from Star (thus assuring that we get to have our salads for dessert, since star takes forEVER to cook and deliver their food). I actually tried ordering a Caesar once from Pink's and they said they "thought" they could do that, but what I got was tiny, not at all a Caesar, and not worth having. But hey, I don't call for delivery/take-out SALAD. It's about the pizza, baby, and the pizzas at Pink's are good, borderline excellent. And the delivery guys (and counter gals) are fun to examine, in an Illustrated Man sorta way, which is a nice bonus. One of the guys who takes the phone order sounds consistently and thoroughly stoned, but what the heck, they always get my order right, so I don't really care. This place makes for a terrific break from the usual delivery pizza fodder and the employees are fun to look at. Highly recommended. El Rauncho Grande read more

I was driving home from downtown with the kids and my son was extra hungry. I saw this location and saw they sold by the slice. Parking here is convenient but maybe hard to get out if there is traffic. Well l ordered a pizza half supreme and half pepperoni and pineapple which was a big mistake cause they never told me that it's extra $6 to do it. I gave my card to my daughter to pay cause the payment was down... l walked next door to buy some drinks. My total was close to $30 for 16 in pizza. The pizza was greasy and the crust was really thin... cheese just melt the crust basically and the center just fell apart. I'm giving to 3 stars cause it's made fresh and it average on pizza. Nothing special about this place so I'm not coming back. $30 l can get way more pizza. read more

Pretty good pizza from really nice people. I just finished a couple of slices from a pepperoni, mushroom and JALAPENO pizza I ordered from Pink's. My first inclination is to say that it's just alright, but then I remember that 1) I am in Houston and 2) they actually delivered a hot pizza to me outside of their delivery area. Talk about a save! Let me explain. The pizza itself is pretty good. Crust is thin but not too thin and the toppings do seem gourmet. Slightly better than Star's toppings. Again, pretty good but it just doesn't really grab you like some of the best slices in most major cities. I love Houston as much as the next guy, but there just isn't any truly magnificent Chicago, NY or traditional Italian-style pizza joints (that I know of at least. If you know of one, please let me know). All in all. I'd order here over any of the chains (Papa Johns, Pizza Hut, Dominos) and probably any of the local joints I've been to in Houston. Supporting local businesses is always a priority of mine and these people just happen to be exceedingly nice and local. It's a little expensive, but I think the quality of ingredients is part of it. One last thing of note. Their ranch dressing is not good. Yes, I am a ranch snob and yes, my cholesterol probably could tell you that. Not a deal-breaker for a pizza place, but just a friendly FYI. I've heard that I should order one of their specialty pizzas and I will probably do that next time. Bada Bing! comes highly recommended. Sometimes you pay for great food or great service. In the case of Pink's you get a helping of both, with an emphasis on service. read more

I'm a huge fan of Pink's Pizza's gigantor cheese slice. It's probably as close as you can get to $2 New York thin crust slice. The difference, of course, is the gigantor part: one of these bad boys will set you back $5. That gets a little annoying because Pink's retail locations will have slices available, but they need to be reheated. And if you want toppings, those go on after you order. To reheat, they have to be slid through the baking machines just like a regular pizza. So you're not really saving much time by ordering by the slice during peak hours. As for their specialty pizzas, there's lots of good stuff. A medium specialty pizza is $17, and a large $21. Not cheap, but Pink's is healthy with the toppings. Unfortunately, their crust to cheese to toppings ratio loses a lot of integrity once toppings are added. So while you're improving your pizza with artichokes, sun dried tomatoes, Italian sausage, rosemary chicken, feta cheese, or whatever floats your boat, you're losing the wonderful, understated deliciousness of the thin crust plain cheese. Oh by the way, Pink's sets up shop at Free Press Summer Fest, where a slice of pizza, a Melange crepe, and a wash-it-down drink from Juice Girl will literally be the best thing you've ever tasted while not exactly sober. read more

I'm going to keep this review simple for everyone: - I have tried pizza at every (fast) pizza place inside the loop and Pink's is the epitome of pizza. With an eclectic menu combined with the best customer service I've received in years makes this a sure bet for a pie. It's a bit pricier than the average pie but WELL worth it. Is this your first pie at Pink's? Here is EXACTLY what you should do: 1. Call Pink's Pizza 2. Ask your helpful and friendly baker about their Santa Monica pizza pie. 3. Wipe the drool off of your phone. 4. Order the Santa Monica. 5. Order one (1) Crack Brownie. 6. Ask them about the amazing .50 cent Pizza Insurance. 7. ???????????? 8. Profit/Win. 9. Celebrate victory. read more

First review, etc. I order from Pink's on occasions that I crave pizza, but am not yet inebriated enough for Late Nite Pie. These guys have the best 'za in town. That being said, it is probably also the most expensive. Last night I ordered a medium Freschetta for myself and a lady-friend, and it was plenty to feed us both (and leftovers for lunch today). It was also over $20 with tax and tip. It was delivered promptly and was both tasty and delicious. I also enjoy their Bada Bing and Double Down; actually every other pie i have eaten from them. The drivers are nice too. I take off one star for the price, and I sincerely apologize for using the term "za". read more

I've ordered twice from this place. Pizza is okay; to be honest though, unless you get the more unique toppings, you're probably better off ordering Papa Johns. (my example: The Luigi is pretty good.) To be fair, though, I ordered the "lite" cheese, which might explain my reaction to the taste. Delivery was timely; pie was warm and both delivery people were non-sketch. Well done on that count. read more

1 hour and 45 minutes for the wrong pizza to be delivered. And the pizza was cold! When I called to complain, the person on the line said they would charge me for the delivered pizza, not the one I ordered. Okay, I can get behind that... After all, the pizza I ordered cost more than the one that was delivered. He also said I'd get a free pizza the next time I ordered, to make up for the long wait time and incorrect pizza. If they live up to their word then I'll change my rating! The bread is pretty good although slightly burnt around the edges. The cheese and pepperoni were alright. I wish the pizza had been warm though. read more

The past two weeks I've had Pink's on three different occasions. Now that's by far the most pizza I've ever eaten w/in two weeks (other then the times spent in Manhattan). And it was all thanks to Pink's magnificent specialty Pizzas. So far I had the Bada Bing and the Magnifico; both are simply MAGNIFICO!!! Today I had the Marie (Chicken, Mozzarella, artichoke, sliced olive, sun dried tomatoes, roasted garlicw/ pesto sauce)... not as magnificent but still okay. I now believe Pink's is the best delivery pizza in Houston. If only they had New York Pizzeria's toasty crust then it'll be perfect. By far their ingredients and combinations are better than that of NY Pizzeria. Another positive is that for an extra buck fifty, you can half & half two specialties on one pie. NICE! The only downside is that it's quite pricey and they don't sell the specialties by the slice. In spite of the fact, I'm now on a quest to try all 20 of their specialty pizzas. We got 3 down and 17 to go. read more

I had pink's pizza first at a work event, and I really liked it then. We ordered what I thought was the same pizza, but it came with a lot of oregano on it. Like an overwhelming amount. Probably the pizza would have been good minus half or more of the oregano? Ingredients overall seemed good quality. read more

"I'm a fan" because Pink's uses fresh ingredients, has creative pies, and everything is just really, really good. However, I was not the biggest fan 2 weeks ago when we called in an order to Pink's on the way home from watching the Rocket's battle LA. We were already on our way to Pink's, so we knew that even though we called it in it wouldn't be ready when we got there. So I entered to pay when we arrived 5 minutes after calling, telling the counter girl to add some garlic bread so we could nosh on it while waiting. She said it would only take 2-3 minutes to make. So they add it to the order, and we take a seat at the counter to wait. And wait. And wait. 25 minutes later, the pizza making guy asks us what our order is. When I tell him, he says we're next. It is then I ask the check out girl where the F our garlic bread is- and she says oops, they didn't make it. Whiskey tango?? They gave us extra garlic bread for having to wait so long, but it all ended up coming out at the same time. Sigh. The pizza is sooo good, you just have to withstand these kind of mixups. We ordered the That Guy (proscuitto, Italian sausage, and chicken) pizza and a ceasar salad- both delish, I love the thinly sliced red onions on the salad. Sometimes restaurants cut the onions too thick and it hurts your tummy to take a bite. We've also gotten the Bada Bing (proscuitto + pepperoni)- yummy as well. read more

Discovered this a few years back when it was just a hole in the wall on West Gray. Not a fan of the national chains and prefer the small start up craft/artisan or whatever you call it. Reminiscent of the great pizza towns and that is what makes it better. The Big Boss or the Bada Ring is usually on my mind when I call. Very much a meat and cheese guy with spices sometimes the occasional olive topping. Had all their sandwiches on over the years on occasion. Meatball is messy as expected. This was the only location I got Pinks from for a while. Now that there are several it is obviously more convenient. IT is pretty consistent across other locations as well. Let me say Pink's converts very well into cold pizza the next day. It is like a transformation from great to amazing. Because in my opinion the leftover it becomes is a great indicator of the ingredients that were used. read more

Legit pizza! This is not Papa Johns or like any other chain. I too, have also only had the Santa Monica after I called them for delivery one night to The Lot "HeeEEEeeEY, GIMMe UR best PizZZZAaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! I'M at Tha Lot!" 25 minutes later my Santa Monica arrived. In my drunken rage I nearly smashed it on the ceiling when I saw the cranberries - my boys were starting to rage too! "Weee've BEEeen LieD toO!!" Thankfully for everyone involved, it was love at first bite. I don't know how they make cranberry and stinky cheese pizza work but it does. I don't know if I will ever be able to order anything else. read more

First pizza I have ever ordered from Pinks and it wasn't good. It was the 'Classic' and was a carry-out. It was over-cooked. I told them I wanted a Margharita and they replied "Oh we have that, we call it the classic." Well, the classic has a thick layer of tomato sauce and that is not a Margharita. It just wasn't good. Over-cooked, over-priced, over-rated. So it's either Frank's from downtown, or Pappa John's. There's really not another consistently decent pizza place in town. read more

I've heard good reviews about this place, so I decided to come here for lunch one day. The slices are HUGE! I had really high hopes for this place because Houston doesn't have enough good New York style pizzas. I got a cheese pizza and thought it was okay. The crust was soggy, which I was really disappointed in and the pizza was just really flimsy to and messy to eat. Also, they don't have any fountain drinks or ice but there is a convenient store next door where you can get additional drinks or ice (which was really out of the way cuz I like a one stop shop). The guys behind the counter were really nice and very laid back, so the service was great. I don't think I would try this place again because of the pizza. read more

Great little independent pizza joint with a fun hipster vibe. I'm pretty sure there's a 2 tattoo minimum for working here, but every time I go in (or call in), they're super friendly and helpful. whether dropping in for a slice or a tasty sandwich or ordering a whole pie to pig out on. they're food is awesome! My current favs are Southwestern and Santa Monica. As far as sandwiches the Italian Beef isn't bad. It ain't nothing compared to Chicago's Mr. Beef or Al's, but come on we're in TX! read more

Sorry guys, I really like the toppings and you can taste that they use top notch materials, but the crust just comes out soggy. It happened to both pies I ate. That said, THE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS AWESOME! I had a Marie pizza (with chicken) and was extremely disappointed in their really dry chicken. I was about to write a scathing review when I noticed that their website "guaranteed" their pies 100%. I thought, what the heck, and called the place. THEY GAVE ME A NEW PIZZA! (The guys working there told me that they weren't fans of that pizza either). I think I got the classic and the second time the ingredients were good, but like I said, their crust comes out soggy and for the price, I just don't think its a good deal (I'd do the 5.99 Monday Papa John's pizza or Romanos over Pinks). Also, it really tweaks me that you gotta buy bottled water even if you eat-in. WTF? No tap water? read more

I went to Pink's pizza on a recommendation from a friend. I had a hard time choosing what pizza to order because they all sounded good. I ended up ordering a 12" Big Boss with jalapenos. The pizza looked great when I opened the box. It was loaded with toppings and piping hot. The pizza is a little on the greasy side, so it'll take a couple of napkins to soak up the greasy goodness. I however just like to eat the pizza as it was intended and let the grease roll down my arm. Although a little greasy, the pizza still maintained a little crunch with every bite. My fiance and I ended up finishing the pizza easily and were both quite satisfied. Pink's is easily one of my favorite pizza places in Houston. It is however, a little on the pricey side for the size. read more

I second what Ruta says below me. It's quite pricey. The first time I got pizza from here we got the margarita ... I can't remember the correct specialty name (roma tomatoes, buffalo mozzarella, garlic..etc no meat!) I think the best part about this pizza place is their attention to detail. By this I mean quality ingredients. On the pizza above they used fresh cut Roma tomatoes (not canned), fresh buffalo mozzarella (not preshredded), fresh minced garlic (not preminced), and fresh basil. Most places like pizza hut don't use fresh cheese, the biggest mistake!! The second time I had pizza here we got half cheese and half pepperoni. Had I ordered we would have gotten the margarita :). It was still good though, it's that fresh cheese, I stand by it. read more

If you have ever ever ever (ever ever ever) had an unsatisfactory experience at Pink's & did not speak up, then that is totally on you! They have an IRONCLAD guarantee. Over the years I have ordered from Pink's dozens of times. Their pies are high quality and worth the extra shekels. Their specialty pizzas have apt names & are delicious. Delivery times are reasonable. They are always honest about any delays during peak hours. I enjoy the online ordering feature (go to their website) and the FIRST RATE 100% satisfaction guarantee. The very rare occasions (Perhaps twice in the years & years I have been a customer?) there has been a problem with my order, they have offered a complimentary pie! So if you ever have a problem with your order, it only takes a brief, pleasant phone call to reach a very reasonable solution. I have also stopped by this location for the occasional slice and have never been disappointed. The sandwiches are also quite good. Pinks isn't cheap but you definitely get what you pay for! read more

My little kids were walking by and stopped to admire the pizzas being made through the window here. The man working inside invited them in and gave them each a piece of pizza. My kids were more thrilled than they are on Christmas morning and said it was the best pizza they'd ever eaten. I wish I could give more than five stars to place that was so nice to my little kids and got rave reviews from my picky eaters. read more

With all of the good reviews, and a name like "Pinks", I really wanted to try this place. So on a lazy Labor day evening, the man friend and I opted to try something new...so we gave the feminine hue pizza joint a call. The menu sounds awesome....lots of different choices that you don't normally see on a pizza menu. We went for a Rocko and a Mediterranean....but both were "meh". Don't get me wrong, the toppings were tasty, the crust was good, and the pizza sauce was super fresh....but I'd prefer my usual from Star with wheat crust that sends me into a state of euphoria. I'm not done with Pink's pie's yet though...I'll give 'em another go, especially since my order WAS ready in 15 minutes. I don't even think Domino's can deliver that! read more

I've tried it twice, now, so I feel comfortable writing a review. About the only great thing I can say is that the sausage is flavorful and has a nice texture. Oh, and the delivery girl was friendly the time I opted for delivery. Everything else was moderate to sub par. A strange sweetness lingered in the finish and evoked memories of the terrible pizza served in school cafeterias. Those aren't the types of comparisons I make for pies worth eating. Verdict: why would I order a more expensive pizza that is taste-for-taste inferior? Luigi's simply tastes better. It's purely a bonus that it's significantly cheaper to boot. read more

After a long day of dr appts, my son and I decided on trying Pink's for the first time. Being The Lentil​ season, we ordered two cheese pizza slices. The place isn't too big and has about 5 to 6 tables. Its clean and the music being played was Retro which I loved. After placing our order it took about 15 to 20 minutes for our slices. I have to say that although the crust was a bit on the burnt side, loved the thin crust. Wasn't enough sauce for my taste and not worth the 8 bucks I spent on 2 slices. I will try them once more and try a different pizza. read more

See all

Damn my cruddy memory. The BF and I got a Marie after drum practice one night, and I totally forgot to write about it. Okay, so all the hype is true: Pink's rocks. The staff was really friendly, the pizza is delicious--I mean, the chicken isn't dried out! Lots of restaurants could learn a thing or two from Pink's. Plus they do that hand tossing bit. Made me feel like a Ninja Turtle... Okay, sorry, nerd influence there. Okay, and the Crack Brownie. Worth. The. Money. OMG, words won't do. It's just that good. Short of being a diabetic, you owe it to yourself to try it. Big ol' chunks of chocolate, consistant flavor, and just a little bit of crunch. I'm seriously think about going back for three or four brownies and then stopping for a pint of vanilla Haagen Daas on the way home. Sure, I'll be all molded into the couch, but damned if I won't be happy, too. I really gotta try that Santa Monica next time... read more

Today due to the weather, we ordered in. By suggestion of a regular of this establishment...we got five larges. We had pepperoni, chicken, hamburger and sausage. I only had the pepperoni and chicken..both were very good. The sauce was just different and kind of sweet. The crusts were thin, which I prefer, and tasty as well! They were great as far as our order, since after we placed it we realized we were going to need one more! Everthing arrived hot! So that was just great! Thanks Pink's! read more

This review is really just based on the price. We paid $17 for a 12" pizza that was good, but not great. There was nothing special about it at all to me. We got the veggie pizza delivered and the crust was a little too soggy for my liking. For $17 for a pizza that size, I was expecting something way tastier and original. If you want to try an awesome pizza, check out Bombay Pizza downtown. Original ideas, the owner is always there and is great, and the food is just plain delicious....and it's cheaper than Pink's too! read more

It is hard to review this place because I really like the pizza. If they had killer service they would have gotten 5 stars. And if the service was only bad one time, they would have gotten 4 stars. But how you treat people is key. The pizza, pasta, and salads are good. The southwest chicken pizza is AMAZE. But the service is so bad - both delivery and in store. Examples - 1. Ordered delivery with a coworker. Apparently the guy drove by and when we did not answer the phone he did not stop. After we called to figure out why the pizza hadn't been delivered they informed us that we would have to come pick it up. Ummm that is their job to deliver. She had to go pick it up, and they charged her the full amount. 2.- Walked into the place and no one acknowledged us for about 10 minutes. After we decided to go somewhere else and were walking out - they finally tried to help. read more

You get what you pay for at Pink's. It isn't dominos - it's gourment pizza. The menu is well thought out, the ingredients are fresh, and the quality is consistent across all of its locations. I've ordered at least 2 dozen pizzas from the Gray St. location over the years and a handful from the heights. Since I live down the street, I prefer pick up over delivery so that I know my pizza will be hot. On a week night, call about 30 minutes before you want to pick up your pizza. 45 minutes or so on the weekends. There was one time that I did opt for delivery and the pizza was luke warm, but after calling they brought me a fresh one in no time. read more

If you're looking to sit at a booth, waiters to ask you if you need more water, or singing animatronic puppets that possibly could be Skynet's first wave of invasion, then this isn't the place for you. However, if you're looking for some great tasting pizza, check out Pink's. Pink's seems like a place that focuses on delivery (call them to get details about their delivery area) because the interior of Pink's is small and sparse. There were only a few high tables, and it seemed like the rest of the space was devoted to the kitchen. Hey, that's no problem with me if the food is good. And it was. My friend and I ordered the Classic (The 12" was definitely enough for just two people.): feta, pecorino romano, mozzarella, roma tomatoes, garlic, sun dried tomatoes, and basil. The moment I laid eyes on the pizza I was impressed. The mozzarella had melted into perfect circles on the pizza, meaning that they used fresh mozzarella balls instead of the shredded stuff. The flavors of the Classic were, well, classic. The tartness of the sun dried tomatoes coupled with the fresh roma tomatoes, the feta cheese, and the basil went well together (though I prefer my basil chopped rather than in a chiffonade). The crust was good. Not too crisp but not too chewy. Better tasting than a Dominos/Pizza Hut-level pizza, that's for sure. Note: they just have water on tap. Though I suspect this place deserves more stars, I just wasn't blown away my first time there. So, expect an update. read more

Pizza has no flavor what's so over! No proportion in the ingredients. I ordered a pepperoni pizza! The pepperoni was under the cheese..... I personally didn't like that read more

I'm not normally a fan of thin crust. But my husband is and we felt like ordering in. I chose Pink's and justified it by saying I was doing it for Yelp. We got the Deuce (not too many vegetarian options on that Specialties list and also, strangely, no substitutions) and the plain cheese. We preferred the cheese. I'm normally a fan for throwing crazy stuff on pizzas: blue cheese, sage, cream sauce, sure! Whatever. But at least on the Deuce, it seemed like overkill. Delivery was fast and the food was priced well, I think we got 2 meals out of 2 pizzas. I'll have to try the add your own toppings area and see how that goes. read more

My order (to-go): - Spinach and pepperoni pizza slice The interior of this Pink's location is dirty and dusty. As you can tell from most of my reviews, I do not appreciate an unclean restaurant. People are eating from here for Christ's sake, clean it up! This location looks "unfinished" and old or something. The pizza was ready quite quickly, and served warm. One slice is really large, with thin crust. The toppings were fresh, especially the spinach. However, it's very greasy. I was okay with it, but it could be better. read more

Heard good things about this place so decided to give it a try one hungry sunday night. Got the Bada Bing, but it should have been called the Bada BUST. The sauce was runny and made the crust soggy so half the toppings landed on my lap when I tried to take a bite. Even with the special ingredients (prosciutto, bacon, sun-dried tomatoes), it tasted like Papa Johns, only $10 more and sans that delicious garlic dip. read more

I ate at Pink's after REFUSING to eat pizza in Chicago, my craving unsatisfied because seriously, if you are only in Chicago for 3 days, why the hell would you do the tourist thing and rush out for deepdish? That would be more cliche than running out to that hot dog place where the customers are racist. There are better places in Chicago (as well as better dogs,) and hey, this is not fish tacos in San Diego we are discussing. Yet, Pizza was calling, and Pink's is the best place in the Midtown/Montrose (or at least near the East Montrose Civic Association) that I have tried -- at least 4 other ventures (no reviews.) I am a pizza snob. I desire fresh cheese like the Japanese desire fresh milk (no seriously. They have 3 dates on their milk: production, delivery to the store, and expiration date. No one buys milk one day later than the delivery date! This prevents consolidation of dairies in megacorporations. A worse investment (high margins, but less volume), but a better product.) It's rare to find a pizza place that can deliver that quality. Pink's comes more close than any place I've sampled in the Sun Belt. So why the 4 stars? Because I'm a critic. I've had better pizza, but it is the best in the Midtown/Montrose area. It's best if you order take-out. It only takes 20 minutes to get the pie and the employees are friendly. read more

A weekend staycation Downtown with Hubbs had us staying in and sampling some inner loop fare we dont often get to enjoy. Pink's was first up and took us for a lovely ride. A half Big Boss/half Lazy Lasagna (yes pizza with ricotta on it!!!) and an order of hot wings and spicy bbq wings packed a serious punch of cheesy, flavorful, chewy crust delightfulness. I was worried the wings didnt have much (any) sauce but goodness....the flavors were definitely there and the wings werent at all fatty #WINNING read more

I don't understand the bad reviews. I love Pink's Pizza! I ordered the "This Guy" and it was tasty and fresh. I love the crust! I ordered around 5 PM on a Sunday and it was delivered to me in about 30 minutes. I'm sure they get pretty busy around prime hours and/or big games (as do most pizza places) so I'm not sure why the previous critics are complaining.
