Ordered pizza from here last night around maybe 9;00 pm was very excited Because of the reviews Every review is mostly positive People saying how amazing is the food The best pizza Thay ever ate and it goes on & on! So I ordered about $53 In food I wanted to try a few things Ordered the chicken Parmesan sandwich It was awful Shredded flavorless chicken some poorly made tomato sauce no flavor whatsoever okay. So then I tried their meatball and spaghetti Oh my gosh Flavorless Raw tomato paste Meatballs no flavor Everything look good so good Pleasing to the eye But as soon as you take a bite Flavorless All these reviews are fake Youre better off ordering Dominos its a lot cheaper and better in my opinion Called and spoke to the manager told him to come pick up his food I wanted my money back He said that he is closing And he will give me a free pizza I told him I dont want hes free pizza I just spent $53 on Garbage food !!! He said to call back tomorrow and hell put his boss on the phone Call back tomorrow and he said that they are close because it is Sunday and they will be close tomorrow on Monday which I just checked their hours and he is lying they are open Monday Always around terrible place Do not order from here

My 2 friends and I wanted to meet somewhere central between the Energy Corridor and the Galleria for lunch. Crespo was suggested by my yoga friend. Since he does yoga and seems fit, I assumed any restaurant he suggested would be healthy and maybe stocked with organic ingredient. Crespo did not disappoint. You order at the window, take a seat in the covered patio, and the pizza will be delivered to your table. The plastic lawn furniture and walls covered with hardware store 4 x 8 Spruce Privacy Wood Lattice reminds me of home; when I lived with my parents and spent many summers re-building and adding to my mothers vine grown gourd garden. We ordered a large meat lovers pizza. The dough was thin and had the irregular outline of a hand thrown or rolled pizza. The mozzarella was surprisingly good and stringy while the ground beef and pepperoni was good and not greasy. I would recommend Crespos patio and pizza for mild weather.

I was trying to find a good pizza place that was near the Galleria, but I also didnt want it to be crowded or overpriced. This place is perfect. Its not very big at all: there are about 6 tables in the entire restaurant (three inside and three outside in a tented patio). I told Sam, our waiter (and maybe owner, Im not sure), it was our first time, and he was incredibly gracious and welcoming. Their crust is really great... I love thin and crispy pizza... it was really authentic and tasted like the pizza I had in Italy. And they make everything fresh and made-to-order... nothing frozen or pre-made. Plus, if you dont want a whole pizza, they also sell by the slice (around $3). The place gets a lot of to-go orders and catering requests; and I can see why. Even though this place is a little out of my way, I would definitely come back whenever I get the chance.

Do not waste a single dollar at this place. I ordered a pizza and a pasta dish from them today. It was my first time ordering from them, and it will be my last. I have never had pizza that was this bad ever. No taste;poorly made. A total waste of money. The Alfredo pasta dish i ordered was delivered basically as boiled pasta with tasteless white sauce poured over it. No taste, no mixing;this was beyond ridiculous. Do these people actually think they can stay in business by serving poorly made food with no taste at an expensive cost? The only reason i ordered from this restaurant was based on the 40+ google reviews that gave them 4+ stars, but based on the food i received, it is very clear that those reviews were not written by actual consumers.

We were looking for an Italian restaurant to go to for lunch. Found this place online and thought give it a try. My first impression was "oh..., not really a restaurant type that I had in mind", but since we were here, so we tried it anyway. I have to say, Im glad we did. The food was so fresh and the price is good for the quality that they have. We got to talk to Sam (I think hes the owner). Hes a really nice person and care about his customers and cares about providing quality food. we got pizzas and they are very good. I like the smell and taste of fresh organic dough. You can tell the different. The bread sticks in garlic butter sauce were so good too. I definitely will come back and recommend to my other co-workers.

Ordered the 16" Crespos Supreme pizza on a rainy day for $24. Was said to be delivered within an hour but arrived sooner because we were close to the location. The pizza was delivered piping hot with cheese and crushed peppers . It looked appetizing just like the pictures . After biting into the pizza I was delighted with the fresh ingredients. After the second chew, the disappointment set in. The crust was dry, the sauce was flavorless. Even with all the ingredients the pizza had absolutely no taste . Ive tasted halal food that was delicious and this was not it. Too expensive to be this basic.

We live close by Crespos and have wanted to like it since we moved here 3 years ago. In fact, it was the first place in Houston my wife and I ate on our househunting trip. With five visits over the last few years, Im ready to call it. Crespos pizza is OK at best and with above market prices. Try it once and see for yourself. Im not sure what the other reviewers are smoking. With the consistent repetition of Crepos talking points across multiple reviews (WHOLE GRAIN, PERFECT, CRUST), I suspect the owners are posting their own opinions. The proof will be a rebuttal post to this one.

We just enjoyed wonderful pizza and made new friends of Sam and his staff in this family friendly neighborhood pizza restaurant. The Supreme pizza and the Feta pizza were outstanding and their Baklava was a perfect dessert to end our meal. We met several employees, all of whom were very friendly and genuinely glad we came in. We are anxious to go back to Crespo Pizza the next time we are in town. I hope you go enjoy great pizza with these terrific folks!

We went here for my birthday. We ordered the cheese pizza, garlic bread with cheese and cheddar cheese jalapeno pappers...it was all extremely good and you could tell it was made with fresh ingredients as it tasted wonderful and didnt sink like a rock in my stomach afterwards. Oh, and the tiramisu is to die for!!! We will go back for sure. The owner was very friendly and my kids loved it...they even ate their crusts!
