If you go to the reverse HH get a reservation. The pizza was good but the sauces were great! The cheese formagio was good, cheese wasn't completely creamy if texture is important to you. It was all the way melted. It was the type of cheese in it. Pepperoni was good but the pepperonis had a very strong pork flavor, like they tasted like pork chop over pepperoni. The sauces make their pizza. Get the 3 sauces. The service was great. It was extremely busy but the staff was moving & food came out timely

Pannacotta

Ordered: - Gnocchi Al Polpo - It was good, but honestly I would also be happy if it was an octopus appetizer and didn't have gnocchi. - Rapini Linguine - yummy. This one had a little spicy kick to it that I wasn't expecting. - Pastrami Rendang - Very unique pizza. Pork belly pastrami, fish sauce caramel, and pickled cabbage. It honestly works. I wouldn't say it was my favorite pizza ever but I enjoyed it. - Pannacotta - Peaches and apricot sorbet was yummy. The almond crumble was quite big, I prefer a smaller crumble. Their late night happy hour 9:30-10:30 is such a good deal 50% off pizza. Definitely would consider coming back during that time and trying their other pizzas.

Rosie Cannonball is located right on the busy Westheimer strip, so be prepared to valet or spend a little time finding street parking. The restaurant sits tucked away on the corner of the building and has a cute, chic atmosphere that makes it perfect for a date night or a family dinner. The space is fairly limited, so I would definitely recommend making reservations in advance. Despite the cozy size, it was very kid-friendly and welcoming. We ordered the pizzas and the bolognese pasta, and both were delicious. The wait time for our food was surprisingly quick, especially considering how busy the restaurant can get. Overall, the food tasted great, the atmosphere was charming, and the experience was enjoyable from start to finish.

Roasted corn
Judy C.

I really enjoyed the vibes and food! Deazia was superb! She exceeded all expectations and hospitality was deff served. She was knowledgeable, friendly and bubbly! Excellent recommendations as well. We started with a complimentary bubbly - CLETO CHIARLI (very light and sweet, quite enjoyed it). Also, got a classic margarita with Reposado and Tajin on the rim (stronggg but good). For apps, we got the CARROT BRAVAS & BURRATA (had a nice crunch) and ROASTED CORN (flavorful). My favorite Main was deff the Pepperoni Pizza (the crust was crispy and bread itself was chewy as well, the tiny pepperoni were tasty as well. I'd just come back for the pizza itself). My other favorite was the CAVATELLI ALLA BOLOGNESE (by far my favorite pasta shape of the night and the texture was perf. Very fresh and made in house. The sauce was great as well and paired well). A special note is that they have HH half off pizza and cocktails on Tues-Sun 9pm-10pm dine in only. For dessert, you must try their CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE A LA MODE (brown butter cookie that's homemade and warm with some icecream was keyyyy). Their honey cake was also notable and delish. We also got to try a variety of gelatos (vanilla, mint and pina colada - my fave). Overall, can't wait to be back for more pizza! Parking - Valet or avail handicap parking in their plaza Restrooms - individual stalls and clean/dark

Visited Rosie's on a Saturday night for pizza and some wine! I had a reservation and sat at the bar. Austin was one of the bartenders and he was amazing--he did not miss with his suggestions! One of his suggestions was the Cacio e Pepe pizza (added sausage and mushrooms) and it was delicious! No notes really! I really enjoyed the staff, everyone was friendly and had a nice aura! Also, not sure who was on the aux but the playlist was fire. They played songs that if you knew, you vibed! I am definitely returning!

Dominique P.

Ambiance and service were amazing!! However, I do not think I would be back. The pizza was not my favorite. Supreme pizza just tasted like tomato, not meat. Also, the dough was floppy, it didnt hold up to a good pizza structure. The pasta was just okay. There was no wow factor for the level of restaurant they are. I was disappointed. I am only giving three stars because the service & ambiance was great.

Carrots and burrata. I would visit there ten times over for this dish alone!
Jennifer H.

All that and then some! This place is a just as spectacular as everyone says it is. From starters to drink to dessert. You can't go wrong with anything. We started with a classic G&T along with this carrot and burrata dish that was such a unique blend of flavor and texture. I could eat about four bowls. Their pizzas are classically great, but don't forget to add some dipping sauces or you are missing out. The honey cake is simply delicious, add an espresso martini to kick it up a notch! Overall A++++ in every aspect!

drinks
Chloe L.

Lovely ambiance!! Perfect for a date or a girls night out. Great happy hour at 9pm, half off pizzas and booze. Absolutely loved the cacio e pepe pizza, knew this place deserved the Michelin regard after taking a bite. Cocktails are very fun and strong! On the sweeter side for most, our server gave us great recommendations.

Dolly O.

Had a great dinner here during their reverse happy hour! Highly recommend visiting during their reverse HH, for half off glass of wine and pizza. Forgot to get photos of our pizzas, but they were great. We got the Rosie's Supreme (very delicious, our favorite) and the Pizza Alla Nerano (also good). They also give you complimentary small pours of a sparkling red (Lambrusco) upon seating, which we ended up ordering a glass of. Staff were very friendly and loved the ambience. Will be back!

Cookie à la mode, gelato, and honey cake
Wendy H.

I went to Rosie Cannonball with a group of friends on a Saturday night to celebrate my birthday, and it was such a great experience. Make a reservation -- it's an absolute must. They also offer complimentary valet, which is super convenient (just don't forget to tip your driver!). Even though it was packed, our waiter was incredibly sweet and attentive the entire night. They started us off with some complimentary wine and we paired that with the focaccia, which was warm, fluffy, and delicious. For pizzas, we ordered two: the spinach artichoke dip pizza, which was good with great flavor, and the hot honey pepperoni pizza, which completely stole the show. It was a 10/10 -- so good that I already have another reservation this weekend just to go back for it. For dessert, we had their famous honey cake, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. It's a must-order -- seriously, save room for it. We also tried the chocolate chip à la mode, which was really good, and since it was my birthday, our waiter brought out some gelato, which was a really nice touch and tasted great. For drinks, I had an amaretto sour and the Montrose Mami -- both were good, but I especially loved the Montrose Mami. It's basically like a piña colada and super refreshing. Overall, this place is popular for a reason. If you haven't tried it yet, you definitely should.

Chicken Basquaise was delicious.
Violet H.

Went to here to celebrate my birthday and it did not disappoint. The food was amazing! Here is what we got and what I would recommend... The Focaccia is a must, 10/10 The tuna tartare also delicious 8/10 We ordered 3 pizzas - the pepperoni 9/10, supreme 9/10, and cacio e pepe 10/10. The cacio e pepe is a must. It was outstanding. Our sever recommended the salsa verde with it and he was right. Btw.. get all 3 sauces and the hot honey. They are delicious and will elevate your pizza experience. We also got the chicken basquaise 9/10 and the bolognese 10/10. All chefs kiss. Dessert - the honey cake was incredible 10/10 and the rhubarb was great 8/10. Vibe and ambiance 10/10 - cool place! Now, the server was ok. Nothing special, not very attentive. Could have honestly been better, given the fact that they have a bib gourmand recognition and there's a lot of buzz surrounding it. I would definitely recommended this place. We will def be back.

Pepperoni Pizza
Jamaal W.

My colleague Maria put me on to Rosie's. I knew I could trust her pizza reviews and I'm glad I listened. I came specifically for the pepperoni pizza and it was worth it! Fresh ingredients and a nice crust, and I opted for extra pepperoni to make sure I wasn't disappointed. It was a lazy weekend night for me so I placed a carry out order, but next time I'll be dining in. The ambience of the dining room is perfect for a date night or a solo date to indulge in a guilty pleasure. Overall 9/10.

Table Bag Hooks
Cayli P.

Rosie Cannonball is Houston's only Italian Michelin-listed restaurant. The vibe, ambiance, food, and service is perfect for a girls' night or dinner date. We received complimentary glasses of rosé and a blistered bean salad upon being seated. I definitely felt wined and dined. The high tables even have bag hooks! The service was amazing (even when they were busy). My friends and I really enjoyed their cocktails and the bone marrow. Their honey cake is a MUST-TRY. Totally melts in your mouth. So flavorful and to die for.

Charred Cabbage-$20. The best vegetable I've had in 2025 and 2026! lol The duck skin and dressing are addictive!

Ask the Community - Rosie Cannonball

Do they have gluten free pizza or pasta?

I did not see this option. Phone them and ask.

Is there a brunch menu?

Nope, just a lunch menu. They are open for lunch on Saturday starting at 11:30 but they are only open for dinner on Sunday.

Is it by reservation or can you walk in for a table or sit at the bar?

I recommend making a reservation but you can walk in and sit at a high top table or at the bar.

Do they have a dress code?

I don't think there is an official dress code but because of the ambiance, I would recommend semi casual/semi dress.

Has the menu changed during the pandemic?

Does this place have outdoor seating?

Yes, the have outdoor seating.

Are there gluten-free options?

I went with a friend last weekend who is dairy and gluten free and they were able to make some changes to dishes to accommodate her no problem.

What is green sauce on fennel pizza?

I can't remember exactly, but the base is broccoli-something! (Broccolini, broccoli rabe--not sure which one) It definitely tastes more bitter than a basil pesto.

Located in EaDo, it's a cute, quaint neighborhood restaurant with an intimate atmosphere that feels effortlessly charming. Nothing overly flashy or pretentious, just a really lovely place to enjoy a good meal. Now, let's talk about the chicken. SO good! Easily the highlight of my visit and absolutely something I'd come back for. I love when a restaurant can take something as familiar as chicken and make it memorable. Sometimes the simplest dishes tell you everything you need to know about a kitchen. The atmosphere is another reason I'd return. It's cozy and inviting, with enough personality to make the experience feel special without being overly formal. Perfect for a casual date night, dinner with a girlfriend, or one of those evenings when you just want to enjoy good food somewhere with a little character. Would I return? Absolutely. And yes, I'm ordering that chicken again. My recommendation: Put Nancy's Hustle on your Houston restaurant list, especially if you appreciate intimate neighborhood spots with genuinely good food. It's definitely worth a visit!

I went during lunch, and it wasn't too busy, which was a plus. We made a reservation because I had heard this place gets packed. I got the potato croquette, the steak frites (which was +$24), and the chocolate dome. The potato croquette was phenomenal, and I really enjoyed it. It was crispy with a soft interior, and the sauce tasted like a tomato bisque, which paired really well with it. The steak frites, on the other hand, was not good. I'm used to steak frites being cut already, which isn't a big deal, but this steak was WELL DONE when I ordered medium rare. The waitress did offer to make me another one since I only ate two bites, but I don't like sending food back. So, I just kept it, didn't eat it, and still paid for it. :( The chocolate dome was good. The flavors were decent, and I liked the texture. The cappuccino was bland and boring. I don't think I'll be going back here.

Met a friend for a Houston Restaurants Week lunch…read more The Ceviche Tower was my favorite course of the three course HRW lunch. Chunks of fresh white fish marinated in lime & spices, served with avocado & house-made chips. So delicious! I was looking forward to trying the Mayan Chicken Stew. It was listed as a Mayan traditional and flavorful chicken stew characterized by its green color and tangy flavor derived from ingredients like tomatillos and cilantro served with rice, Mexican squash and potato. However, it did not really seem like a stew, but more like the list of vegetables with a fairly dry piece of chicken placed on top. I think if the chicken had been cut and mixed in with the vegetables to absorb the flavor, it would have worked better. I split the Chocolate Almond Cake with my friend. The gluten free cake was quite moist and light. A good way to finish lunch with a friend. Parking was a challenge due to construction on a Thursday for a late lunch.

We arrived before 6:30pm which meant we were able to order from the HH menu. I had a signature cocktail called So Fresh So Clean (love the Outkast reference). This cucumber based cocktail was very refreshing! I also had a Clover Club which I enjoyed (I love the egg white)! Fried Deviled Egg - I opted to add caviar for an additional $8. It was good, but I just really prefer traditional deviled eggs without breading on them. Market Fish - Absolutely delicious! The fish was tender and flaky, seasoned well, and the tomato bacon broth was soooo good! My only complaint was the small portion. Bees Knees - Delicious! Caviar Tots - Compliments of Chef, Ryan (thank you)! 2nd Visit: I came back for dinner. Our server was Chris and he was really nice. We ordered a bunch of items for the table to share. Drinks: I did a So Fresh So Clean because I'm predictable and I loved it the first time. I also had a Negroni and it was really good. Butter Burgers: It normally comes with two, but Chris was nice and brought out a 3rd burger so that we could each have one. I enjoyed the French onion flavor in the beef, but the burger was too buttery for my taste. Crispy Potatoes - Very good with great flavor. Mushroom Empanada - I didn't try any, but my friends enjoyed them. Hanger Steak - It took 40 minutes for the steak to be brought out and unfortunately, one steak was overcooked while the other was undercooked. I tried a bite of the overcooked steak and the flavor was there. The steak was tender enough for my preference. Market Fish - Red Snapper. It was a larger portion, but the flavor wasn't as good as the first time. Additionally, my fish came out about 10 minutes before the steak and it got cold because I was waiting on the steak to be brought out. I read an article on Culture Map that Riel is closing down at the end of August. If Riel is on your list to try, go now before it's too late.

I was finally able to try this Houston staple last weekend!…read more Food: 4.5/5 - I loved the tomato toast and warm broth the best! The tomato toast was not overhyped and definitely worth getting. The bread is nice and oily yet still crusty and crunchy. The tomatoes and greens on top paired perfectly with the sourdough. - The warm broth doesn't seem like much from pictures and description but it was just so comforting and had nice umami. The green onions really bring out the rest of the flavors. - Ratatouille: this was one of our server's recommendations. I thought it was pretty good but slightly too sour/over-pickled for me. (I'm also not a big pickle person) - Butternut squash: This was probably the next best dish after the toast and broth. All the flavors and texture were there except the squash was a little hard. It could've been cooked a little longer to make it easier to cut through. I guess it is out of season, but still. - Squab aka pigeon: Also pretty good. The dried raspberries actually pair very well with it. Ambiance: 4/5 - The space is extremely small so you really need reservations. - It's so small that the tables are quite close together. But they were also not evenly spaced out so we tried to move our table away from the people next to us (we were practically touching!) and the staff insisted that we don't move them because they need to access the cutlery in the drawer on the side of the table?? First of all, they could've still accessed it after we moved the table. Second, if the space is that tiny, why not just store the utensils elsewhere? Very odd and didn't like that vibe.
