    (+) Their pizza is great when you eat it hot (+) Nice space inside with plenty of seating (+) There is an area in the back for larger parties (+) Servers were very accomodating for our large group (-) Pizza does not keep well and is not good when popped into the microwave next day (unfortunate) I've had Spanky's a few times from this location for my kiddos' school's spirit nights. Thank y'all for supporting the community! Enjoyed my first dine-in visit and I'm sure we'll be back again down the road.

    The place looks so clean and bigger than the one in Pasadena. Lots of natural lighting. The service was amazing, very attentive, the food was amazing as well. The toast on the club sandwich want too burnt.

    This was good and I enjoyed it though it was not quite as expected. I ordered the pepperoni pizza based off the pictures I saw online where it looked really good and really cheesy. When it arrived, I immediately could tell that the pizza was different from what I saw in the pictures. It definitely was cheesy and covered with pepperonis, but I feel like they definitely over baked it. The cheese as can be seen in the picture turned brown because they probably left it in the oven a little too long and had more of a crunchy texture as opposed to a soft cheesy texture like what I was expecting and what they advertised online. This of course affected the taste to where I feel like it wasn't as flavorful because it was over baked so that was disappointing. However, I will say that it was still good, especially when I reheated it later. My first impression was that it was just pretty decent but once I reheated it I did truly enjoy it so I overall liked this pizza. I just wish that it was not over baked when I got it so that definitely negatively impacted my experience. We also got some wings that were just okay as well. I think I would try here again and just maybe specify that I don't want the pizza to be overly baked because I do see the potential on it being really good though that wasn't quite my experience this time.

    The Spanky's restaurant chain is decent. They have hip old school diner vibe set clash in with Texas decoration. I did enjoy my pizza and the service was decent.

    The food here was really good. The moment we walked in, I could tell it was going to be a cute spot. It gave comfort food vibes and wasn't too crowded. The pizza was good and the chicken wings were okay. We were greeted immediately and our server was really nice. We did have to wait almost 30 minutes for dessert to come out, but overall, cute spot. I would definitely go back.

    We grew up eating Spanky's at Astroworld and the original location on Telephone Rd., so we decided to check out the location in Sharpstown for Father's Day. The restaurant is nice and spacious and it has a nice patio area. The service was average, our waitress checked on us frequently. The wings were good but they only come in one flavor, which is buffalo. We had the large Super Duper pizza, which had a lot of toppings but the pizza sauce wasn't seasoned so it made the pizza taste bland. The Watermelon Margarita was disappointing. It tasted like it was made with powder so it was tangy. I would go back try the Philly Cheesesteak.

    I have always driven by Spanky's and never quite felt a pull to come in to try their food but my cousin and her family told me this is their favorite place to try pizza so I decided to try. Walking in, I was surprised by how large it was. We decided to sit outside since the weather was so nice and it was kinda chilly inside. We got fried pickles for an appetizer and were pleasantly surprised by how big the portions were. The pickles themselves were cut very finely and fried perfectly where it was light and airy. We got 2 thin, medium pizzas - spinach and garlic & the special which is like a supreme pizza (Italian sausage, pepperoni, beef, green pepper, mushroom, & onion). The medium is 13 inches and is the perfect size for sharing. The pizzas were fantastic and not overly salty, perfectly crispy with just the right amount of toppings. I liked how it came out in raised platters that allow the oil to drain into so the pizzas don't get soggy with time, that was really thought out. Service was great and attentive. All in all, a great spot!

    I've always seen this restaurant from the highway and decided to stop to try it. Parking can be tight and the parking lot out front is small but there are spaces on the side and behind the restaurant. This place is very spacious inside and we were seated right away. While our waiter was slow, she was very friendly and accommodating. The menu options were great and we opted for the Philly cheesesteak, spaghetti, pizza, fried mushrooms, and fried cheesy tater tots. The food came out hot and quick and was tasty. Will definitely return again.

    1st time here & definitely coming back. Pizza was good, service was fast, & waitress was nice and the manager walk around to the tables making sure customers were satisfied with food & services. Ambiance was nice with sports channels on. I had the meat lovers pizza.

    BBQ chicken pizza
    Quonesha J.

    Ordered the individual BBQ chicken pizza. Individual only comes in thin crust, which I perfer. This was my first time here so I give it a 8/10. There is plenty of items to choose from off the menu so everyone will be happy. I also ordered a frozen margarita, which I wish I would have gotten on the rocks instead.

    Chili Cheese Fries
    Hoonie K.

    My daughter and I had lunch here yesterday. The ambience is nice, wide open and a quasi-sports bar type of feel. Very clean. The service was good. The shared a large pizza and an appetizer. Chili Cheese Fries - 3/5: Just okay. The amount of chili was pretty disappointing and the cheese is a Mexican queso versus a melted cheddar. I think queso is good in small portions but hard to eat a lot of when it covers the whole dish. Pizza (meat lover's) - 4.5/5: My daughter and I both loved the pizza. They let you choose the type of crust and we chose New York. We both agreed the only thing keeping it from being a 5/5 was that it needed a bit more pizza sauce (the amount of cheese and toppings was spot on). Overall, enjoyed our lunch and would look forward to going back and trying some of their other pizza selections.

Recently she had an afternoon appointment and I was able to swing by and join her. When her appointments were completed, it was in the beginning of peak traffic time, so we decided to walk over to DS and have a bite to eat and catch up This space is so open as well as cozy. Soon as you enter, you head straight to the counter to order. From there, you're given a number and choose your seat. Booth and table options are available. On a Thursday afternoon, the place wasn't busy but not empty, which gave my Mom and I the opportunity to catch up without a noisy dining room. The food came out fresh and hot and for the price, we were surprised by the portion since its was the $10 HH burger and fries. The fountain drinks were interesring as well. DS does not have Coke or Pepsi products. They have similiar flavors you would find with those brands. I enjoyed the Mexican Coke. It seemed to not be as fizzy aa your own well know caffenated Compadres but still carried a great flavor. Let me not skip over the dessert! Mom LOVED the pecan pie which she states had whole pecans instead of pieces. I did not wven notice that she had been getting pieces of the pie as we talked. Half of it was gone when we left. That means is pretty scrumptous! I had enough willpower to eat my chocolate chip cookie when I got home and it was worth the wait! Not only is the cookie huge, but the semi sweet chocolate and sea salt is chef's kiss. Grat combo of both worlds. Combine that with the crunchy outisude and chewy, gooey interior and this is one of the best cookies I've tasted in a long time. So glad to dish all this goodness to Yelpers and remind them of another gem in West U that will not only give you a great place to get a bite but satisfy that sweet tooth.

I stopped by with my buddy on a Thursday evening close to 9 p.m. Free parking was a cinch in the parking lot they share with several other businesses. Service (4.5/5): You order at the counter and then they bring your food out to you. The lady who brought me my food checked on me twice and was super nice. She called me "sweetheart," a little Southern hospitality goes a long way. Ambiance (4/5): Modern, clean, and comfortable. In line with other Dish Society locations I've been to. We sat at a booth/table combo. Drinks (4.5/5): I love when a restaurant has more than your standard selection of soft drinks. You'll find that at Dish Society. They have "craft" sodas and a nice selection of juice blends. Plus sweet and unsweet tea. Food (4/5): I went with a cup of the tomato bisque soup and the Nutella French toast. The soup tasted as good as it looked. Some croutons or a piece of garlic bread would have been nice, but outside of that, this starter couldn't have been better. The Nutella French Toast was similarly well done. I love French Toast and I love Nutella. So this was a match made in heaven. Along with some sliced strawberries and some blackberries, I was happy I went with a breakfast dish for dinner (they serve brunch all day). The prices are affordable for the quality of the food. My only complaint? The portion sizes are pretty small. Case in point: two slices of French toast when most places will give you four. Pro tip: Join their club for discounts.

Portions are large/filling and we felt the food was delicious and a good value for money. When we arrived the line was long and menus were not available so we had to search for the menu on the website to avoid deciding at the counter and holding up the people behind us. After ordering, tables were cleaned consistently and service was friendly. Only feedback about seating was outside parties would take chairs from other tables and leave them with no seating and not all tables we're shaded. The drinks being available at the bar when it is busy and then food being delivered to the table was a bit clunky. I picked up water and utensils for our party before sitting and would have preferred to have to pick everything up at the counter or have everything brought to the table to avoid multiple trips around when the restaurant is busy.
