We drive from across town for this pizza, and it is still worth it every time. My wife ordered a thin-crust pepperoni with green olives. I got a medium hand-tossed pepperoni and Italian sausage. Both pies came out looking exactly like they should: bubbling cheese, good sauce-to-topping balance, and crust that actually tastes like something instead of cardboard. Hers stayed crisp on the thin crust; mine had that slightly chewy, well-baked hand-tossed edge. We both said the same thing we always say here -- this is some of the best pizza in Houston.
I stopped by Spanky's Pizza earlier this month and ordered a pizza and an order of Tator Kegs. I was especially excited about the Tator Kegs because I hadn't had them since eating at 54th Street in San Antonio. The pizza was tasty. The ingredients tasted fresh, and everything was prepared well. I would definitely come back again for the pizza. The sad part is that I never got around to eating the Tator Kegs. They sat in my fridge a little too long and I ended up having to throw them away. I'll have to order them again on my next visit.
(+) 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.
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.
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.
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.
Spanky's lunch pizza is a WIN every single time! You get up to three toppings, and me? I'm getting triple pepperoni EVERY TIME The pizza comes out hot and fresh, with plenty of pepperoni just how I like it. And the wing appetizer?! Definitely gets the party started! They're the perfect thing to snack on while waiting for the pizza. Spanky's is one of those reliable spots when you want a good, filling lunch without doing too much. The lunch pizza deal alone keeps me coming back! read more

When we arrived, the parking lot was full, but thankfully they have an additional lot in the back so finding a spot wasn't an issue. Service was fast and friendly, and we didn't have to wait long for our food, even though we ordered a large deep dish pizza to share. The deep dish pizza was very good, I really liked the crust. It was crispy, but not burnt at all. We also ordered the fried mushrooms, and loved them. It was a great first time experience and I'd definitely love to come back to try their pastas and lasagna! read more
Not bad, not great. Looks like a new building. Clean and teams moving around. I ordered the large super duper. It was good. Comparable to other large chain pizzas but not something I would call my "go to" pizza place. Price point might be high for takeout pizza at $27 for a 15" Supreme. Manager was highly active supporting staff and talking to tables. read more

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. read more
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. read more

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. read more

With all respect, this is an upscale Cicis pizza... Service was great. Restaurant was clean and trendy. Food was presented very well, however, it lacked flavor. The Alfredo sauce is watered down and they top everything with a ton of cheese... now, I LOVE cheese but there also needs to be some sort of flavor. Even the marinara was flavorless.. Very mediocre. Great for kids! read more
I came here for their Tuesday dinner deal (that used to be lunch only) - pastas ($6) and HH ($4 drinks). I got the lasagna and frozen margarita. The lasagna comes with two breadsticks and the serving is the perfect size - very filling. It's like 80% cheese but not bad at all for the price. The breadsticks are alright, not Olive Garden quality of softness, but not rock hard either (great for dipping into the lasagna sauce/cheese). The margarita was also medium (not the weakest nor the strongest) but very ice cold and super slushed. Waitress was nice and the place was clean and open. This was my first visit and I enjoyed it (I'm very critical on chain restaurants). My other family members have been before and think it's a great affordable option on their deal days. read more

First time at Spanky's. They have many options for their pizzas (toppings and sizes). They also have multiple options for pasta dishes. I wanted to try the meatballs sub, and it was delicious!!! Their margaritas were also delicious! Great service and ambiance. Will come back to try their pizzas. I came back to try their pizzas, and it was so delicious. Their Hawaiian pizza is addictive! Also tried their orange dreamsicle margarita and and its perfect for the summer! read more

Came by for lunch at this new location. Brightly lit bar and seating areas. I sat in the bar area at a high top with the bartender serving. She was friendly and efficient. I ordered the fried mushrooms and baked spaghetti. Mushrooms were nice and crunchy and still juicy. Baked spaghetti was flavorful and tasted good. I would have preferred a little more sauce but the onions, cheese and noodles were a good amount. I'll have to try the pizza next time. read more
When first arriving to this restaurant I was amazing how beautiful the design is this is definitely a nice modern pizza spot and is perfect for a girls or guys night out with their amazing bar in the front or also a nice kid friendly dinner or date night with their large tables and cozy booths to eat at. The pizza comes out very hot and fresh and tasty. I will definitely be back ! read more

My recent visit to Spanky's Pizza was an absolutely delightful experience, a testament to their consistency in delivering both quality and taste. Among their varied menu, the standout for me this time was their spaghetti. Perfectly cooked pasta, entwined with a rich, flavorful sauce that boasted just the right balance of herbs and spices, left an indelible impression. It was a dish that reminded me why simplicity, when done right, can be so satisfying. But it's not just the spaghetti that keeps me coming back to Spanky's. Their Caesar salad is a fresh, crisp starter that perfectly sets the stage for the main course. The lettuce is always fresh, the croutons perfectly crunchy, and the dressing, with its tangy and creamy texture, brings the whole dish together. Their pepperoni pizza, a classic favorite, is a slice of heaven. The crust is cooked to a perfect golden brown, providing a satisfying crunch with each bite. The pepperoni is generously layered and has just the right amount of spice, complemented by the gooey, melted cheese. Best thing also , even eating this baby the next day , it still tasted so good! The hot wings are another must-try. They strike a fine balance between spicy and flavorful, making it hard to stop at just one. The wings are juicy and cooked to perfection, with a crispy exterior that holds up well against the rich, spicy sauce. The ranch taste so good also just adding that extra flavor to the wings! The margaritas at Spanky's deserve a special mention. They are expertly mixed, offering a refreshing and zesty accompaniment to the meal. Each sip is a blend of tart and sweet, making it the perfect beverage to cut through the richness of the food. Now I must warn you , they are indeed good but STRONG!! This is also one of the best places to get a $4 margarita between 3-7pm . Finally, the grilled chicken sandwich is a testament to the kitchen's versatility. The chicken is tender and flavorful, with a nice char that adds depth to the overall taste. Paired with fresh lettuce, tomato, and a delectable sauce, it's a sandwich that stands out in its simplicity and taste. Although I spoke so much about the food ,the service is really great also! In summary, Spanky's Pizza is a place that consistently impresses with its array of offerings. Each dish is prepared with care and skill, making it a go-to destination for anyone looking for a casual yet delicious dining experience. Whether it's for a quick bite or a leisurely meal, Spanky's delivers on all fronts for me! read more

I ordered wings from here for the first time. The customer service was cool, besides them forgetting things that I had to go back inside to get. The place was clean, the staff were nice and helpful. My food wasn't the best. The wing flavor is great but I'm not crazy about them being breaded. What turned me all the way off is the feathers still left on the chicken. read more
