Cuisines: Italian, Pizza
Restaurant details
Reviewed July 13, 2016

I was visiting Houston and felt like having a pizza one evening. Looked at the restaurant guide in the hotel and saw the list of the usual suspects. I went down to the front desk to get a recommendation. They dismissed all the places on the list and highly recommended George's Pizzeria. Delivery, I was told would not be available but George's was about 10 minutes away. I made the call, ordered my pie (Small, all cheese, all sausage). Jotted down the directions and found my way to George's. George's is one of those places that you drive past and never pay attention to. Located in a bit of a run down strip mall with very little ambiance. I arrived just as my pizza was coming out of the oven. A short drive back to the hotel and I sat down to enjoy my pie. George's pizza is a bit deep dish, but not very thick and doughy, but a happy place between thick and thin. Very fresh, tasty and still very hot. From New Jersey two thumbs up to George's Pizzeria and Italian Cuisine.

This place is amazing. The positive reviews earned. Large portions, reasonable prices. Workers so sweet. Had a large to go order and the lady behind the counter walked part of it to our car. Who does that still? George's!

Have gone here for lunch for years and the pizza by far is the absolute best! Thanks to this place, I can no longer stand any of the national Pizza chain. Say hi to George when you pop in. The staff is great too, very friendly.

I go to Georges for pizza only. My wife and I have been there enough times for the staff to know us. (Well over 30 times) I have had lasagna which is pretty good as well but I stick to the pizza. The establishment is older and the decor and atmosphere gives you a feel of a 70's or 80's restaurant. Nothing fancy, just great pizza. And the prices are good as well. Won't put a hole in your wallet.

Called a week in advance and set up a Birthday Party for 30 people, the staff called me the day before to confirm our party and number of guest. When we arrived the tables were set up and there was plenty of staff on hand to serve our party. Dinner was wonderful as always, there is nothing I've tried on the menu that has been a disappointment. Personal favorites are the pizzas and fried mushrooms, everything is good.
