Russo's New York Pizzeria

Pizza, Italian

The Russo family opened "Russo's Italian Restaurant" in 1978 after moving from New York to Texas. Russo's Italian Restaurant was a fine dining establishment that used recipes passed down through generations from the Russo family. Anthony Russo is a first generation Italian. Both parents immigrated from Sicily and Naples, Italy, to New York in 1962. At the early age of 12, Anthony spent a lot of time with his family and other influential Italian chefs in the kitchen learning how to prepare fine Italian meals and New York style pizza. His dad's phrase was: "If you can't make it fresh, don't serve it!". In the early 90's, Anthony opened up his first restaurant in Clear Lake, Texas called "Anthony's Pizzeria". Anthony's goal was to bring the real New York style pizza down to the Texas marketplace. He knew that great New York style pizza could be made anywhere by using quality ingredients, his family recipes, and a whole lot of passion. By using his culinary experience, Anthony was able to blend the simplicity of the Pizzeria with the freshness of the Fine Italian Restaurant. It was at this time that the New York Pizzeria concept started to materialize. Anthony's was able to serve high quality food while providing a quick and casual dining experience. The New York Pizzeria concept was introduced in 1992 in the Houston market in an area where the majority of customers were from New York City and they truly appreciated the New York style pizza, giant pizza slices, and calzones in Texas.

As a 1st time guest, no one greeted me at the door or told me they would take my order at the table. I ordered and paid at the register. The practiced Social Distancing with the dining in parties. The food was great and the wait staff was nice.

Melissa is very people oriented & has high expectations to be sure each & every customer is satisfied to the max. Very pleasant & friendly.professional. First discovered Russo's by meyerland.

We always get the same pizza and it always taste the same, which is excellent. This time, something was different. I asked if something had changed and was advised there was a new chef who was cooking that day. Same ingredients, etc, but did not taste the same. Crust was different and was tough, couldn't cut. Toppings didn't have the same flavor. I did not like it and I always love the pizza.

Lots of things over three different visits. Every time, the calzones bread was burned. The eggplant parm...it was really hard to find any eggplant, we actually picked through it and did not find any, the chicken parm's chicken was very tough and also burned, things just all tasted burned and way overcooked. The drink refills were filled on top of the old drinks and not poured out first, so they were all watery.
