The service was amazing, my waiter was super friendly and honestly came to the table the perfect number of times, not too much and not too little. The only thing is I ordered a pizza to go for my family which was the new hot honey pepperoni flavor (if i'm remembering the name correctly) and I unfortunately saw a little friend (tiny baby cockroach) in there who wanted my pizza too. I've been to this location a couple other times and never had any issues I just wanted to bring this up just so the staff is aware. I also didn't even open up the box until I had gotten home so I was a little frightened. I know things can happen as to why that was in my order, but when I got home, I opened the box and immediately saw it in there it just caught me off guard. From the table I was sitting at in the restaurant I can see all the pizza boxes stacked up on top of one another. I just ask if maybe staff can refrain from setting up too many boxes as for cockroaches are attracted to the cardboard due to the moisture and shelter it creates for them since it is a dark box in the kitchen where the food is being cooked so it's always steaming in there from the food locking in that moisture. read more

Spanky's - Pizza Near Me - Houston, Texas

This place is a total trip down memory lane! The food tastes exactly like old-school Pizza Hut I'd bet money they have the original recipes. The only thing missing was the buffet and salad bar. It's an incredibly family-friendly spot with top-notch service; despite a busy Saturday night, our waitress didn't miss a beat. While it might not be the "best" pizza in the world, it is a must visit if you're craving that nostalgic Pizza Hut flavor. We had drinks, fried pickles, and a large meat lovers pizza for under $50. I'll definitely be back to try the wings next time they looked amazing, and the waiter said it's one of the top sellers. I will say the place is a bit old feeling, but it was clean and well ran, props the the staff and great food. read more

Whack! Came today, 8-13-25, in for Wednesday pizza special, order a large pep with mushrooms, cheesy pizza sticks, one soda $30+ Waitress failed to tell me pizza special is voided if you order more than one topping, so because I got mushrooms on it, I pay and extra $10 or so. Shame on the waitress "of yeah that's only for one topping." Gee, that would be nice to know when ordering. Ridiculous read more

A few days ago, I drove by Spanky's on my way to a litter clean-up, and it stuck in my mind. So when someone suggested meeting for lunch on the East End, I figured it was the perfect chance to give it a try. I went for their $9 lunch special and chose a pizza topped with pepperoni, sausage, and bacon. The portion was a great size--not too big but definitely satisfying. It reminded me a bit of the frozen pizzas I used to eat as a kid in terms of size, but the quality and taste were on another level. The toppings were flavorful, and the crust had just the right crunch. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure my water glass stayed full, which I really appreciated. If you're in the East End looking for a casual lunch spot with a great deal and friendly service, Spanky's is worth a visit! read more

Spanky's - Lunch special pizza with pepperoni, sausage, bacon - Pizza Near Me - Houston, Texas

Let me start by saying this is my favorite Pizza place in Houston and it's not even close! Pizza always comes out delivious and piping hot. Not too many places do a deep dish pizza well and Spanky's hits the nail on the head. Things can get a little tricky with the service in particular the seating hostesses. There has been more than once I have waited while being completely forgotten in the queue for seating. I have had good experiences with the servers once seated. Also they could turn the temp up just a lil' bit its usually an ice box in there so bring a sweater along. read more

A Houston marquee. Pizza is great and I've been eating here since the 70's. Tricky location but the food makes it worth the navigation.

I'd seen Spanky's when driving down the highway, but it was after a fundraiser went horribly wrong with a volunteer group I helped out with that we actually went over there to try it. The guys who were still students at UH were shocked that I'd never been there because of how much of an institution it is to them. Like a lot of dine in places, they have a variety of sizes, pizza depths, and toppings that you can order. I'm a pretty simple guy who prefers just pepperoni, but I went with what they wanted, which included a variation of a Supreme pizza and a meat lovers. Both were fairly large, New York style, and filled us up pretty quickly. Service is always a bit weird at a pizza parlor, since the Parmesan and red pepper are already on the table and they're basically just refilling drinks, but the service was as good as I've had at any other pizza restaurant. Was it the best pizza I've ever had? Obviously not. Was it a solid pizza at a great price point from a place that definitely deserves its status as a local institution? Definitely. read more

I've been wanting to try Spanky's for a while now, so today was the day. The Pasadena site was pretty cool. ordered a medium 2 topping pizza with standard thin crust to go. It came out pretty fast, but quite pricey for a pizza that size and only 2 toppings. Got it home and it was VERY underwhelming to say the least. worst crust ever! Probably made with no semolina and only all purpose flour. No flavor and kind of fell apart. Very little sauce and skimpy on the cheese. The chicken and meatballs were over cooked. I will not be back, as first impressions were a complete deal breaker. read more

They need to train the lady bar tender to multitask. I patronized this location twice in the past 2 weeks and felt ignored both times by the same lady at the bar. I felt the need to express this concern to the manager on duty Friday night and felt as though she didn't take it serious. I don't patronize them too often and thought about using them for a business lunch next month BUT now that won't happen - for sure!! $$$$. you never know who's patronizing You.. read more

A super fun (and busy) place for sports games!! The pizza here is so tasty and such a good pride. My aunts ordered the Alfredo and loved it. The breadsticks that come with it look so good, too! Clean restaurant, friendly staff, and plenty of parking in their lot. I got the pepperoni passion personal size pizza (thin crust only available when you get personal size). They do really load it with pepperoni!! Soooo good. read more

We ate lunch before the UH game, and enjoyed the large menu selections and variety. I recommend the buffalo chicken entree salad! It has a lot of chicken on it and a really delicious sauce. My only issue with the establishment is we are in the South and they only offer Pepsi products !! Everywhere in Houston should offer Coca Cola! read more

I don't have any complaints about this visit. The pizza was good. The deep dish crust was crispy, like sourdough bread. The wings were cooked perfectly. Battered, then fried until Crispy and drenched in buffalo wing sauce. The kids enjoyed themselves and loved the food. The restaurant itself was nice. Lots of tvs and clean. Service was good, except the hostess looked like she was disgusted when she had to seat people. I even detected a grimace a couple of times. Can't imagine that job being ultra difficult. I highly recommend visit to Spanky's. read more

Spanky's has garnered a special place in my heart. I have only had their pizza as take-out as of now, but it has always been absolutely fresh and delicious every time! Today I got their pizza lunch special (comes as thin crust with 3 toppings) and my goodness, what a nice treat in the middle of the work day! Totally made my day. I initially came to know Spanky's from word of mouth as to how fantastic their pizza is. They definitely deserve all of the hype! Not only is their pizza delicious, but they are very rooted in serving the community around them as well. They were quick to donate pizza to an organization that I was seeking to assist. They were so incredibly kind, and helpful. Everybody I have encountered there has always been top notch with their customer service. I truly can't say enough about how great my Spanky's interactions have been thus far. My goal is to get the full dine-in experience now! Even though I've only been in to grab to-go orders, I love the atmosphere of the restaurant. Great pizza, great customer service, and solid dedication to their community, Spanky's definitely delivers it all. read more

I will always ride by this place and say that I will visit and never did. I finally made it and it was so good. The pizza was great. I also had a salad which was good. The chicken tenders are fire.

Love Spanky's on Telephone. Great service and attitudes. The ambiance is casual and can get a bit loud and busy but it's worth the trip. The food is good. Today we ordered the Special, large, no onion, thin crust pizza which was delicious and piping hot. Our favorite waitress Van took care of us and was very attentive as always. We definitely recommend this location. Love it! Great sweet tea too. Plenty of adult drinks available. Clean bathrooms. read more

Food great, always, not a thing in this menu that is not good. Nice environment, it is always nice and cold. Service, is always questionable, not my first time here , I've been coming here for about ten years plus, but every now and then you get a waitress that is rushing, and does not listen to instructions, one of the best things in here is the pizza, we ask for pepperoni on top so the cheese stays together and the pepperoni is crispy on top, we made the mistake and didn't order it correct, but I ask my wife to make sure to let them know, well they threw some pepperoni on top after it was already made. It made it a terrible pizza, we aired on our waitress for ten minutes, never came back, we had to get a manager, of course he offered to replace it, great guy, but we do not send food back, but we were just going to order another one, it was our mistake, but like I mentioned she never came back. Once she came back we did let her know the problem, and did let her know it was our mistake, but she got an attitude about it, so we asked her to walk away, so in the end everyone ate, except for myself. Bad experience! Please hire better people, use the interview process, ask questions and see if this people are willing to help customers. read more

My best friend from college owns this restaurant!! To say it is delicious is an understatement!!! It has been a locally owned restaurant for decades!!! Her father owned it and then passed it down to her and her sister!! Some of their employees have been here since the beginning!!! This is the original location!! The new one is even swankier!!! They also have a barbecue restaurant named Gabby's, but let's focus on this one!!!! First off, the cheese sticks!! Just get them!!! Great way to start your meal!!! The marinara sauce is to die for!!!! The garlic and basil!!! So much flavor!! Don't forget to ask for a side of ranch!!! My daughter ate 5!!! I have only ever had one of their pizzas and there's a reason for that! It's absolutely incredible!!!! The personal margarita pizza. No questions. Just get it!!!! Pesto instead of sauce!! Topped with tons of cheese and tomato slices!! I cant even!!! I've never had anything like it!!!!!! The atmosphere in here is amazing!! The staff is happy to be here and all have smiles on their face!!! When the owners take care of their employee, it shows in their work ethic!! Amazing staff!!! read more

Ambiance was inviting. We were sat almost immediately. A busy Saturday night with an excellent playlist. Our server Francis, was great. She was very sweet and attentive even after being visibly busy. Refills weren't even asked for because she was on top of that! The wings had just the right kick to it. Pizza was phenomenal. However, my entree and my daughters lacked flavor altogether. We added salt, parm and pepper and couldn't rectify the lack of flavor in our dishes. It was a simple spaghetti and meatballs... But so very bland. Unappealing. Didn't finish. Figured maybe I can fix at home - but that's not why you go out to eat... Our server did try bringing out marinara and Alfredo to help. Marinara was mediocre at best. Alfredo was ok but I'm not usually a fan of mixing that with the meat sauce. Dessert: Churros 10/10 Cheesecake: 7/10 Overall Meal: 6/10 read more

Everything was just mid. We got the mozzarella sticks and they were good but nothing to write home about. The fried mushrooms however were just bad, they were overly battered and didn't taste like mushrooms at all. The pizza, Alfredo were okay, reminded me of Olive Garden. The desserts were good bur doesn't make up for the rest of the meal. read more
