It had a great flavor so much so that I was drinking the curry after the rice had finished. We also got the pot tea, which is good too and the mango super ice mango sticky rice was like any other mango, sticky rice, mangoes recite the not as fresh, but that's too expected in the spring when it's not really mango season but the sticky rice.

We looked at a few different options for places to eat and thought this one would be nice for a sit down discussion. We got there around 10 AM and a few patrons were scattered about. Quite a variety of different places to sit, we sat at a table for two near the bar. Handed a breakfast/lunch menu so many things looked so good. We weren't sure what to go with so we asked for some of their favorites. We were offered suggestions on the avocado toast and the poppy. I went with the avocado toast. As always, I bagged the onion and kept all the other ingredients which included avocado spread, spinach, tomato, sunflower seeds, and an egg over easy. You have a choice of toast, including white, wheat, or rye. Gotta go with wheat! Absolutely a terrific place to go to and support the local community and get everything you'd want and one of those chain type coffee shops (you know the green one I'm talking about) and get a much more natural, even lower cost option

However, the food left a lot to be desired. We ordered the quiche and the avocado toast with a side of potatoes. Potatoes were burned, well, charred really. They did take them off the bill. Quiche was so so, and the avocado toast had a ton of raw spinach on it, which was hard to eat along with the toast. Should have come steamed or sautéed instead. Bacon was good though! I was very excited about the pastry case at first since everything in there looked fresh and home made, but when I was trying to decide what to get "to go", like one of their muffins, I saw flies buzzing around and landing on the items. No thank you. I know flies are around in the summer, but the pastry case should be shielded from bugs at all times. I think if I were in the area I may give this place another chance since I liked other things about it like the atmosphere and the fact that it did look like a local family favorite.

For our meals, my husband ordered the Crispy Chicken Salad, topped with two large hand-breaded chicken tenders tossed in mild sauce with blue cheese dressing.

Now sitting there, I noticed they do a good amount of take out. I also saw the same door dash guy a few times. Now, how was my pizza you ask?

This is one of the better grandma slices I've had in quite some time. I took a bite of Sami's slice and it was good, but the honey mustard threw me off a bit. I'm used to the sauce for that type of slice being ranch so the sweetness was a change. Not bad necessarily, just different in a way I wasn't expecting. Rosario's definitely Didn't Suck, and I'd like to go back and try other slices sometime.

I think for years their success has benefited from being in an area without many other pizza and takeout options, but this has not made them complacent because they are consistent and everything on their menu has been pretty good, especially their hoagies. Agostini's closing is the best thing to ever happen to this place, as since they've started making their own dough, their 16 inch round has elevated Laura's from being a pretty good pizza place to being an outstanding pizza place.

Without hesitation, I answered, "A pizzeria!" Now, let me explain. Finding great pizza in Houston is a bit like hunting for Bigfoot. You hear rumors, you spot a few possibilities, and every now and then you find something decent. But for this New York City girl, it's just not quite the same. So my father-in-law took us to Pizza, and from the moment I walked through the door, I was smitten. Then we stepped into the train room. Y'all... I was gone. Between the vintage toys, retro décor, and nostalgic treasures displayed throughout the restaurant, I felt like I had been transported back to childhood. Every corner held a memory. I spent half the evening admiring the collection and the other half trying not to point and say, "Oh my gosh, I had one of those!" Our server was absolutely wonderful. Sadly, I didn't catch her name (in my defense, I was seated near the wall and completely distracted by all the nostalgia surrounding me), but she was friendly, attentive, and made our experience even better. Then the food arrived. Let me tell you, it was worth every second of anticipation. The wings were fantastic, and the pizza? Perfection. Every bite delivered exactly what I had been craving: incredible flavor, gooey cheese, and that glorious crunch on the crust that pizza lovers dream about. If you know, you know As I sit here writing this review, my mouth is watering all over again. Unfortunately, we are back in Houston now, staring sadly at our local pizza options and reminiscing about Pizza Perfect. BUT we found (after a 4yr search) have a local favorite, Brothers Pizza Parlor in Cypress. Please don't tell them we cheated on them This restaurant checks all the boxes: great food, friendly service, family-friendly atmosphere, plenty of space for large groups, and enough nostalgia to make you feel like a kid again.
