"While the smell of smoked BBQ may get you in the door, it's Pizzitola’s fluffy banana pudding and kind servers while refilling sweet tea that'll make you want to be a regular. Pizzitola’s has been doing down-home BBQ in Houston for decades. Between the southern hospitality, college team paraphernalia, and family photos, the Washington Corridor restaurant is like a small-town Texas spot where folks gather after a Friday night football game. Start your meal with the pepper-crusted pork spare ribs—the black pepper amplifies the ribs’ smokiness, making it the best meat on the menu." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas, julie takahashi
