Perfect! Just what Houston Needed!.
I called Johnny Carino's (on Wallisville) from work and asked them to fax me a menu, it arrived within minutes! The menu is impressive, offering Homemade Lasagna, (12-layers), Penne Gorgonzola, Eggplant Parmagiana, and Oven Sandwiches among many other GREAT dishes! I phoned in a 'to-go' order, pulled up to the Curb-side Parking area, and was surprised to see that the waiter had just finished bagging my order up. He tossed in 2 hot loaves of steaming bread and I was on my way home. The food was outstanding! Perfect in everyway! Prices are extremely reasonable!!! I am impressed with this restaurant to say the least. Try it for yourself and you'll see that the Italian food is simply outstanding at a great price. The empoyees are courteous and the service is prompt. That's becoming a rarity now days with other restaurants. Two thumbs up!

Johnny Carino's is a Great addition to Houston. The food is wonderful, selection is great and the service and overall value is outstanding! It is a very comfortable place. Go here. It's good. Not trendy, but just plain good!

Fast and inexpensive.
We were late going to a movie once and we got our order within minutes once we told the waiter or situation. She didn't get anything wrong, either! The food is good, the service is good, the prices are good.
Update: Whatever you do, don't sit next to the ovens. We were seated there the last time and all we did was talk about how hot it was and sweat. The wait staff weren't concerned as I didn't feel any extra A/C coming my way. Food was still good, though.
