These 8 on the map

Every style
Houston pizza has no single style: Neapolitan pies off a Neotexan menu, Detroit squares, San Francisco sourdough, New York slices and a deep dish from 1976.
8 of the 20
Talespin Pizza
MemorialNeapolitan pizza$$Tiny Katy Freeway shop making Neapolitan pies off a "Neotexan" menu, like carrots with pecan pesto and goat cheese. Two tables inside, so plan on takeout.
Coltivare
The HeightsPizza & garden$$$Coltivare Pizza & Garden, as it books itself: Gulf Coast-leaning Italian from its own backyard garden, with pizzas and pasta on the shady fig-tree patio.
Tiny Champions
EaDoPizza & pasta$$The Nancy's Hustle team's small EaDo spot for pizza, pasta and sorbet, with a covered back patio. The charred-kale ricotta pie disappears fast.
Gold Tooth Tony's
The HeightsDetroit-style pizza$$A counter-service Heights shop for hefty Detroit squares: buttery, fluffy dough with crackly cheese edges. Go big with The Griz, a buffalo chicken and bacon pie.
Star Pizza
MontroseDeep-dish pizza$$Deep dish from a two-story bungalow off Norfolk since 1976: golden, extra-thick crust and a pan that always looks bigger than you expected. The cheesy garlic bread too.
Frank's Pizza
DowntownNew York-style slices$Downtown's slice shop: bike couriers at lunch, a post-last-call line on weekends, and walls of movies shot in Houston. Big pepperoni slices or whole pies.
Antonio's Flying Pizza
GalleriaItalian-American pizzeria$$Tossing dough in the window on Hillcroft since 1971: a wood-paneled, old-school Italian-American dining room where the staff seems to know everyone.
Luna Pizzeria
The HeightsSan Francisco-style sourdough pizza$$San Francisco-style sourdough pies, unusual for Houston and heavy on the cheese. The lunch combo of a mini pizza and a Caesar is a steal.
