The 15 Best Restaurants and Bars in EaDo (East Downtown) Houston - Houston - The Infatuation

"From the team behind Nancy’s Hustle, Tiny Champions is a small-but-mighty EaDo neighborhood spot with a short but imaginative menu of pizza, pasta, and some serious sorbet. At this laidback space, you'll find mismatched chandeliers, cartoon portraits of well-dressed alligators, and a sizable patio in the back with covered picnic tables. The thinly shaved cremini mushroom salad is topped with parmesan the consistency of a cloud, and the kale greens on your ricotta pizza are crispy, charred, and the main reason the pizza disappears as quickly as it hits your table. This place can fill up pretty quickly, so either make a reservation, or cozy up with some hearty tomato risotto at the bar." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
