As the weekend approaches, many Houstonians are left pondering the eternal question: “Where should I eat?” Luckily, this weekend brings some exciting culinary options worth exploring in Houston.
For those craving something hearty yet satisfying, Gold Tooth Tony’s offers a mouthwatering selection of Detroit-style pizza.
With three locations around Houston—on North Shepherd Drive, Bellaire Boulevard, and Waugh Drive—Gold Tooth Tony’s gives pizza lovers a chance to indulge in what many consider to be some of the best cheesy slices in town.
Masterminded by Anthony Calleo, who has honed his craft through various renowned pizza establishments, Gold Tooth Tony’s prides itself on its signature crust.
The base combines focaccia and sourdough for a pillowy texture that boasts crispy edges and a generous layer of tomato sauce.
Diners can choose from a variety of toppings or opt for one of the signature combinations.
Classic options like pepperoni and cheese stand alongside inventive creations such as the Mac Attack is Back, featuring macaroni and cheese with bacon.
For those looking for a meaty experience, the Detroit Supreme incorporates a mix of meats and vegetables, while Sebastian’s Big Idea balances sweet and salty with Spam, togarashi-roasted pineapple, and furikake seasoning.
In addition to pizzas, guests can enjoy doughy garlic knots, pizza tots, and an assortment of wings, all served with a special homemade ranch referred to as the “Nectar of the Gods.”
If a unique atmosphere and culinary artistry are what you seek, look no further than Haii Keii—a new Japanese restaurant in Upper Kirby designed to transport diners into the world of cinema.
Enter through its dark, moody interiors, illuminated by vibrant neon signs that create an ambiance reminiscent of the set of a Tarantino film.
The sultry two-person booths, complete with red ropes, along with the stunning bar featuring an upside-down bonsai tree, make this spot a must-visit.
Haii Keii isn’t just about aesthetics; the food and cocktails are equally enchanting.
Order an eye-catching ube espresso martini or savor the unique flavors of soft-shell crab fried rice.
Fans of sushi will not be disappointed either, as the menu includes exceptional vegetarian nigiri with eggplant and bell pepper.
For a lavish treat, try the decadent Murimake roll, which is generously stuffed with king crab and adorned with A5 wagyu and kaluga caviar.
A unique touch is the accompanying crackling crab butter candle, which enhances the dish while providing a delightful dipping experience.
Finally, for a seafood splurge that promises to delight, Little’s Oyster Bar in Montrose is the perfect destination.
This establishment elevates the experience of enjoying fresh seafood, offering a variety of delectable dishes that highlight the best of what the ocean has to offer.
No trip to Little’s would be complete without sampling their oysters, which are fresh and served in an array of tantalizing preparations.
So, whether you’re in the mood for delightful pizza, a cinematic dining experience, or an indulgent seafood feast, Houston’s culinary scene has something for everyone this weekend.
