Worst sit-down pizza restaurant in Houston..
First time I've been there since I was a kid. Walked in, everyone ignored me. I sat at the nearest booth. Strike one.
I wanted to try the wheat crust, but the menu said the individual pizza was thin crust only, so I asked for a medium wheat. "We can't do that. Its only on the large pizza". Strike two.
Pffth. So I ordered the 'everything' thin-crust individual and a very, very tiny beer. When the pizza finally arrived, the edge was crispy, but the rest of the pizza was wet and soggy. Yuck! Strike three.
Their idea of 'everything' was about 5 different toppings. Not in my book.
There are too many better pizza places to visit then bother with this one again.

ONE OF THE VERY BEST PIZZA'S IN HOUSTON. WE HAVE BEEN GOING TO SPANKY'S FOR OVER 15 YEARS. SPANKY'S BY FAR IS ONE OF THE BEST 5 PIZZA'S IN HOUSTON. WE HAVE ALSO EATEN MANY OTHER ITEMS ON THE MENU NEVER TO BE DISAPPOINTED BY ANY MENU ITEM. THE PRICES ARE EXCELLENT FOR WHAT YOU GET. THE WAIT STAFF HAS ALWAYS BENT OVER BACKWARDS TO GIVE US NOTHING BUT EXCELLENT SERVICE. THEY HAVE THE CASUAL ATMOSPHERE LIKE AN OLD TIME BAR/PIZZA PLACE. A MONTH AGO WE EVEN TOOK MY PICKY ASS FATHER IN LAW THAT LOVES 5 STAR RESTAURANTS AND HE LOVED IT. DON'T HESITATE TO GO TO SPANKY'S FOR A RELAXED ATMOSPHERE AND GREAT FOOD.

You want great pizza????. I personally live by Beltway 8 and I drive all the way to Spanky's just to have pizza...and have a great time sippin on a cold frozen margarita and just lay back...the pizza is the best..yeah i have had NY Pizzeria pizza and its good but not as good as Spankys. Some people might not like the atmosphere but if you want to pay extra for crappy pizza but have 5 star dinner seating then go ahead and do that...but your missing out on on great pizza. Unlike some people...i don't care where i am sitting as long as the food is worth the price.

just come out and be yourself. Ok, you already know that Spanky's is where to go for great pizza and wings...but dont forget to check out the philly chese steak, the baked spaghetti, fried mushrooms, the all american burger, creamy chicken alfredo, fresh bread sticks made on site daily,and the homemade house ranch dressing!!!!Also, dont forget after a long day that a refreshing ice cold draft or long island iced tea goes great with great service and a cozy atmosphere...see you at Spanky's!!!!
