Ramona's Pizza gets 4 1/2 stars for their Pizza, And 2 1/2 Stars for desserts.
At Romano's Pizza; pizza is obviously the center of attention! With combinations of robust flavors derived from fresh ingredients, and a plethora of crust types, Romano's is it's own 'pizza heaven.' My slice; arrived in great condition with generously layered fresh toppings. It lacked cheese for my taste, so Mozzarella lovers should definitely speak up for extra cheese from the start. Oherwise; Romano's high quality ingredients, were spot on. I was delighted their tiramisu offered the traditional 1/2 inch layer of mascarpone topping, but disappointed to find the topping was followed by overly soaked lady fingers which had hardened into a sort of chewy crust beneath. I must say, Romano's Pizza's tiramisu did not command its 7.95$ price, and I would not want to repeat that particular dish experience. On the flip side, Romano's Pizza's cannoli filling was superb. It was comprable to that of another high quality Italian Cafe in Houston; though you shouldn't anticipate the traditional duo of cannolis served, for that price at Romano's. I definitely recommend Romano's Pizza to anyone seeking an above par Italian pizza experience. Just don't get your hopes up about their desserts, the portions, or it's...
Read moreThis place is fantastic and I'm so happy it's in my neighborhood! Even though there are many other options in the area, this is where I always get my pizza, no questions asked. I walk in and immediately feel like I'm "home." I assume the guys behind the counter are the owners because they are ALWAYS there. They're hard workers and really friendly in my opinion. I used to live in PA so I'm accustomed to the East Coast personalities that some Southerners might find abrasive -- I find it quite refreshing. I've never been to NYC, but I imagine this is what you'd find in an authentic NY pizzeria. They don't offer unexpected gourmet-style topping combinations, but they know how to deliver a delicious pizza. The crust is thin and soft enough to fold and it won't crack or crumble. I find it to be chewier than others I've had -- I like that because it allows me to savor the flavors longer. I'm ashamed to say I haven't tried anything else on the menu. I'm a creature of habit and find it really difficult to tear myself away from something I know I like. A lot of the "regulars" I see here seem to have pasta dishes more often than pizza, so that's next in...
Read moreThe slices here really remind me of a New York style pizzaria. I frequently can be found at both TJ Maxx and Marshalls, and have often wondered if this place was worth popping in to. One day, starved from shopping overload, I finally gave in and was definitely pleased! There's not much to the place really. Just a hot line of prepped pizzas, a kitchen area, an old fountain soda machine and a few wooden tables. From the wall, it looks like they have a pretty large selection, but all I was up for at the moment was a slice - it's really all ya need. I think options included cheese or meat, and I opted for straight up cheese. The guy behind the counter (the italian guy) scooped a slice off the pizza tray, popped it in the oven, gave me a styrofoam cup and rang me up on an old cash register. 5 minutes later, he brings my slice to me and 5 minutes after that, I was outa there. The pizza was piping hot and just the right amount of stringy delicious stick to your chin cheese. MMM MMM MMM. I can't imagine eating pizza anywhere else ever again. Thanks Romano's for making me love...
