The Gypsy Poet

Food was delicious! Line was out the door so I know I was in for a treat! They had live dj playing music. Inside had a good amount of seating. The selection of different pizzas and salad was great. Pizzas were absolutely delicious! Yum yum yum. Would definitely come back again.

What an amazing pizza. Their tomato sauce is splendid. Great flavors in the menu. Pizzas are 13”, definitively a personal pizza.

This place was recommended to me and my friends, so we went randomly on a Wednesday night. We were surprised to see that they doing a jam night with a band and everything! Needless to say we had an awesome night enjoying the food and music. The pizzas were delicious and made fresh in their brick type oven. Definitely will be going back!

Great pizza! You walk in and order at the counter, then go find seating either inside or outside. They have games and other things to do while you wait. We ordered the salads and they were both fantastic! Our pizzas came out in no time and they were delicious. The hot honey adds a whole other level of tastiness to the pizza. Try it, you won't regret it.

We had such a beautiful time at this pizza place with my husband and our two little girls. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly warm and welcoming — they were especially sweet with our daughters, which meant a lot to us. The pizzas were absolutely delicious, full of flavor and made with care. The atmosphere was cozy and unique, perfect for a relaxed family night out. We left with happy hearts and full bellies. We can’t wait to come back!

My husband and I just happened to stumble inside of this cool and hip space. We were out for date night and google suggested it. It was wonderfully perfect. The DJ had us shoulder jumping and feet tap. The pizza is the best! My salad was a delicious side. My husband said he could just eat the crust for the meal 😂 I can’t not wait to return and take my children on a date here. Its a spot everyone can enjoy. SEE YALL ALL SOON 😁

Soooo yummy!! We got the pepperoni madness and the troublemaker and they were both delicious! There was a bit of a wait for the pizzas to come out but they were busy so that was understandable.

The pizzas are delicious, and the salads also have great flavor. I liked that they have a variety of beers and also offer non-alcoholic beer options.

Amazing staff and great service. Concept is very simpler and the pizza absolutely slapped. Had the capresé salad and like a margarita style pizza that was out of this world. Will continue to come back to this great spot.

I tried some delicious pizza here on a quiet Saturday afternoon. We ordered the Fancy Backpacker, with prosciutto, truffle oil, and argula, along with the Troublemaker, with spinach, Italian sausage, and parmesan. Both pizzas were unique and had their own flavorful twist. I also loved that they were delightfully thin-crusted and baked to perfection in the pizza oven. At 13" large, 1 pizza is plenty for 1 hungry person, and this is coming from a voracious eater. There were also a few salad and dessert options, which I would consider getting next time, along with an ample drink selection, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Parking can be tough, but there was some nearby street parking we were able to capitalize on. The overall vibe of the place is backyard fun, with board games and casual seating setting the tone of the restaurant. Overall, I would recommend this place to anyone in the Houston area looking for their upscale pizza fix.

I've slowly been making my away across Houston's top pizza joints and was looking forward to my visit to Gypsy Post after a year of living here. A lot of people seem to hype this place up so I was excited and ultimately I was satisfied but not blown away. It's a solid artisan pizza spot with ample seating and quality ingredients and texture. The small menu was appreciated to spare me from decision paralysis with each option having us say "Ooh that looks good". We ordered two pizzas and between the Sicilian Journey and Cappellone "Bit Hat", the "Big Hat" was the standout for my friend and I as a winning combination of toppings and flavor. My friend from out of town who came with me really enjoyed it claiming it to be top-tier and named this as her favorite spot during her visit. While I enjoyed the pizza overall and do recommend it, I found it doesn't make my personal top 3. My biggest negative for the experience was the service unfortunately. We came right as it opened and walked in to the staff staring at us without an immediate greeting. We were the only ones there so it felt like we weren't sure whether they were ready or open. Upon pizza delivery, it was just dropped off at the table in silence. The quietness of the staff was off-putting and was a little unwelcoming which caught me by surprise.

I was eager to try this place after hearing people say it's the best pizza spot in Houston. I've tried so many yummy pizza restaurants and chains, and this one was just as great! I ordered a personal size margarita pizza. They have truffle oil on the side, which leveled up the flavor of the pizza. I think the truffle oil is the main differentiating factor between this place and other pizza spots, otherwise the crust and the cheese are pretty similar. The atmosphere of the place is very cozy and cute. The employees were kind as well! I'd definitely return

This was a fun dinner spot for some pizza and conversation, although be warned that the music does get pretty loud in the evening times starting around 7 pm. I got the margherita pie. I'll admit- being from the Northeast, I'm a bit choosey about my pizza but I enjoyed my pie here. It comes with basil, red pepper, and parmesan on the side. The servers were fantastic and wrote instructions on my to go box on how to perfectly re-heat my leftovers. I also got the tiramisu to go- the lady fingers were super soaked and the cream was delicious. It wasn't my absolute favorite tiramisu but it definitely hit the spot! I would definitely come back to try more pies, especially since they're very vegetarian friendly and can customize certain pies to make them vegetarian if needed.

So I went here this past Saturday for dinner and it was packed. The pizzas were pretty simple, but yet pretty good. I will say it is a bit overpriced for the pizza, but nonetheless, I definitely recommend. Checking this place out if you're ever in the Houston area and are craving pizza.

Best pizza in town! I love love love this spot. They have live music some nights and board games you can play at the table. It's truly a place where you can enjoy your company and connect. And the pizza is fantastic, the fancy backpacker is divine and you can never go wrong with a margarita pizza. They have a bunch of beers and wines to choose from and the people that work here are very cool and friendly. The atmosphere, food, service, and everything is 10/10 here. They do have a parking lot which is super nice and if it's full you can go around and park in the neighborhood. I've never had trouble parking here but when there's live music it can get pretty packed. Again let me say this pizza doesn't even feel unhealthy, they must use very fresh ingredients because it never upsets my stomach or makes me feel like I ate "pizza" highly recommend

Overall, a really good experience. We went on a Sunday evening and although the patio was full, there was no line. Employees were friendly. They helped us since it was our first time. The patrons super cute. The artificial grass is a nice touch. The pizza was really good and a good price for the quality and quantity. The is soft and thin. The toppings were of good quality. The pizza prevention was lovely and unique. That was my favorite part. I'll definitely come back.

Gypsy Poet's honey hot pizza literally had a hold on me! The hubs and I are obsessed and it's delicious. The wine selection and service is great as well. It's counter service and the line flows smoothly. GP is definitely a great vibe and hangout spot with nice eats. Cheers!

Awesome pizza spot. Definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a great pizza. Staff was awesome and food came out quick. I recommend the margherita with anchovies. Absolutely delicious.

Finally had the opportunity to try this place out as it has been on my list for years. We came early evening on a Saturday and were able to easily get a spot to sit inside (too hot to use their patio area now) - by 6pm or so the inside was full. We ordered 2 pizzas to share between the 3 of us and it was plenty. Web landed on the Cappellone "Big Hat" and Dream Catcher; both were artisan as advertised with nice quality ingredients on a perfectly crisp crust. Service was fine; minimal interaction given the order at the counter setup. Parking: street or paid lots nearby.

Made it in with my wife for lunch just before 1:30PM. Food was amazing. we ordered a margarita pizza that was fantastic. The music plane was one of our favorite groups Buena Vista Social Club. The ladies making her pizza could have been a little nicer. It was clear when a lady walked in 10 minutes before they closed at 2 PM and the looks that were given to her not that friendly or they just didn't wanna be there. We suggest you get there early to make it a five star visit.

Well made tasty pizzas with fresh ingredients & wisely served with basil, chili flakes & parmesan on the side. The service & vibes are chill.

We came around 5 pm, there was no line and the staff was super helpful in explaining all the pizza options and even told us about their secret menu pizzas, which we ended up getting and it was delish! The crust is thin, but not NY style, and it didn't feel at all greasy, which we liked. I love my pizza with hot honey and was so happy to see they had Mike's hot honey here. My bf is a big ranch person though, so he was kinda disappointed they didn't have ranch . The ambience was chill and there's a lot of indoor and outdoor seating. It's a great place to come hang with a group of friends and eat some yummy pizza. Parking though might be a struggle depending on the time because it's street parking.

Hip lil spot for some tasty pizza and salad, I really enjoy this spot for their quality pizza and casual vibes. The menu is small, but the flavors are not. Choose one of the signature combinations listed on the menu. The pizza is cooked in a real pizza oven. There's lots of extra condiments and sauces to spice up your pizza or give it an extra oomph including hot honey. The pizza has a nice chew to the crust, and the premium ingredients really shine through. It's a bit on the pricey side, but it is a quality product. There's also a bit of patio space and plenty of street parking. Apparently they have live music sometimes on the stage.

The pizza is made fresh to order so you know it's some good stuff. They freshly grate you a pile of parmesan, give you some sprigs of basil, and a tiny mound of red pepper flakes so you can doctor each slice to your liking. They can get really busy on the weekends, but I highly recommend this place. The pizza is SOOOOOO good. The ambiance is casual so no need to get all fancy. Great place so everyone can have their own personal pizza (and probably take home some leftovers)! :)

Pepperoni Madness 5/5 Fancy Backpack 5/5 Dream Catcher 5/5 I would say this is my favorite pizza place in town, and that's not just because this is where my partner and I had our first date and where we celebrated every year since. My absolute favorite is the pepperoni madness! The hot honey on top of a pepperoni pizza is an unique twist that had us going for one slice after another. Also, they have very good vegetarian options like the Dream Catcher for us to enjoy days in which she does not eat meat without compromising our dates. There are some board games in the restaurant and large tables, so it is also a perfect place for a group to hang out and play some games as well!

This place was so delicious! I loved their white pizza. Very chill and relaxed environment. The staff is cool and nice.

I'm not supposed to be eating pizza, but Gypsy Poet is so worth the diet break! We came on a Sunday around 6pm and was just barely inside waiting in line. I get why the line moves pretty slow... The restaurant is crowded and if it were any faster, there'd be nowhere to sit. By the time we got through the line, there was a table available for us even though the sunset was hitting our face. We even got lucky with parking too. Two spots left by the time we arrived. Crazy how it works out and not sure if that's the same for everyone. Between the three of us, we shared two pizzas and a caprese salad. I think we could've ordered one more pizza but then we'd be totally stuffed. And can I say "Hot honey! Where have you been all my life?!?!" We actually shared a table with two other people and they told me to put the honey on the pizza. Wow - so sweet and savory! Bonus points for the shaved parmesan on the side. Lots of alcohol choices which I enjoyed because I'm pretty particular! My only recommendation is if you don't like waiting, you definitely need to come at an odd hour. This place is busy.... Because it's so popular!

TL;DR - very tasty oven fired pizzas that are definitely a step above pizza chains like dominos. Food - I really enjoyed the thin, authentic pizza, and the hot honey pepperoni one was probably my favorite with the fancy backpacker in a close second. Tiramisu was great and overall I will def be back whenever I want quality pizza. I'll let the pics speak for themselves. Service - pretty standard but the line was out the door so there was like a 15 min wait to just get inside to place an order. Ambiance - definitely very busy and packed on a Sunday night. They had live music come in and play halfway through our meal, which I actually wasn't a huge fan of because the trombone and drums were pretty loud, so it wasn't possible to hold a normal conversation across the table without yelling at each other. I would have preferred not having live music because the busy atmosphere was already pretty lively while still being able to converse comfortably. I'd still come back for the pizza though haha

I came here for the first time a few weeks ago with a friend! I'd heard a lot about it from numerous people and locals, and finally got to check it out. You have to wait in line to order at a counter before finding somewhere to sit. Overall, the restaurant was clean and well set up - lots of places to sit. The place was super busy, indoors and outside on the patio. We had to wait in a pretty long line to order at the counter but it was worth it. Once we ordered, we didn't have to wait too long actually to be served - considering how busy it was. We ordered the Dream Catcher and Troublemaker and both were delicious!! I think the Dream Catcher was my favorite. I will definitely be back and will also be recommending to friends and others visiting town.

First time going after my friend recommended it to me & I gotta say, this place does not dissappoint!! Great pizzas & vibes. I love the hot honey that you can use with your pizza! Friendly staff that provide great service :D FOOD RATINGS Pepperoni Madness: 5/5 Delicious pepperoni Sicilian Journey: 4/5 Tastes great but I personally do not like arugula on my pizza lol

One of the best pizza places I've been to in Houston! The ambiance here was amazing and so cute, and the staff was so nice as well! I'll admit I'm not the biggest pepperoni fan so we got two different pizzas, but when I tell you the Pepperoni Madness changed my mind. I originally got the Dream Catcher pizza because it sounded amazing (which it was), but when I had a bite of the pepperoni pizza I was in love. I ate more of that pizza than I did my own! I think it was the hot honey, but I would 100% get it again

This is probably the best pizza I've had in the Houston area... Tomato sauce is very important to me when I'm trying out a pizza, so happy to report that the tomato sauce is very flavorful (with a little bit of sweetness), and the fresh cheeses are delicious as well! I really enjoyed the dreamcatcher pizza which had truffle oil, goat cheese, mozzarella and arugula (truffle oil + goat cheese is a really good combination!). The standard margarita pizza was also very good, with tasty fresh mozzarella. I think the only minor negative was that a few parts of the crust were burnt which those parts a bit more dry and tough, but this didn't really detract from the pizza that much as a whole! They have live music most nights (and also board games) in their Heights location, which really just makes the experience even better, 9.5/10 would recommend and will be back!

Intro: I'm going to start things off by firing some shots. I've always said that Houston doesn't have a great pizza scene. That doesn't mean that there aren't solid spots in town, just not at the level I would expect from one of the largest cities in the US. Despite my sentiments, I love pizza and am always on the lookout for an A+ spot. I had heard good things about The Gypsy Poet so I stopped by on a Friday evening for dinner at 8:00 p.m. I found street parking on a side street close by. Service (2/5): Things didn't get off to a good start. You order at the counter and there was a line outside of the door that took roughly 30 minutes to get through. I hate waiting in line. Why are the prospects there for a long line at The Gypsy Poet? The fact that it's a popular pizza joint and that it was a Friday were certainly factors. However, there are some logistical issues too. They don't have menus for you to look at until you're at the counter. As a result, unless people in line look up the menu online before they get to the cashier, they're going to spend a couple of minutes perusing the menu when it's their turn to order. That slows things down substantially. Instead of relying on people to be proactive, if I were The Gypsy Poet, I'd hand out menus to people waiting in line, and then voila, the "traffic jam" lessens. I know having a line outside of your restaurant adds hype, but I hate artificial hype. The staff I interacted with while I was there was pleasant so the service delivers in this area. Ambiance (3.5/5): After you place your order, the experience progressively gets better and better. You select your own seat and they will bring your food to you. There's a variety of seating available including tables, couches, bar stools, and some seating on the patio. It's not a large restaurant so we ended up sitting at the one open table we could find inside. Outside of the seating arrangement, I did notice their playlist. They were playing a lot of EDM as background noise and I dug it. Food (5/5): Gypsy Poet is arguably the best pizza in Houston that I've experienced. Right up there with Luna Pizzeria. We ordered both the Margherita pizza and the Pepperoni Madness pizza. The Margherita is your classic traditional pizza with San Marzano tomatoes, buffalo mozzarella, and basil. The Pepperoni Madness has both pepperoni and hot honey. Both of the pizzas were perfection. Everything: the crust, the cheese, the sauce, and the toppings worked in perfect harmony with each other. Out of the two, I would say I liked the Pepperoni Madness the best. It's one of their top sellers so go for it! We also had some tiramisu for dessert (my favorite dessert). A+ for the dessert as well. Drinks (4.5/5): A nice wine list. You can pick a bottle out while you're waiting in line which is exactly what I did. I went with a Pinot Noir, one of my favorite types of wine. They don't give you wine glasses, you're given regular glasses but it's all good. They also have a good beer selection and soft drinks if you're not feeling wine. Overall: The food is five stars hands down. With some logistical tweaks to ameliorate the dining experience, they would easily be a five-star restaurant in my book. They also have another location in The Heights. If you're looking for elite pizza in Houston, The Gypsy Poet has to be at the top of your list.

Love love love gypsy poet. Dare I say, some of the best pizza in houston. I've been to this location twice and the quality has consistently delivered. The flavors and quality is fresh and authentic. love that the pizzas come with extra fresh parm, chili flakes, and basil on the side. they also have hot honey you can grab by the utensils. friendly staff, great ambiance. free parking in the lot nearby.

Pizza is ok but pricey for the size. I prefer star pizza especially for the amount of food you get for the price.

I love gypsy poet and they never disappoint. The service was great and pizza is always good. My favorite is the Dreamcatcher--super refreshing and flavorful, and the goat cheese isn't overpowering.

Was finally able to order some take out on a random Saturday afternoon. Usually the online ordering system is disabled because they are too busy. I would definitely recommend dining in to enjoy the pizza as it always tastes best fresh. I think we would frequent this restaurant more if we lived in the area. Fortunately there are many delicious pizza options in the city. The outdoor patio space is very cute.

Can we please talk about the ample Parmesan shavings that come with each pizza?!??!! Amazing pizzas. Amazing service. Don't forget to ask for the hot honey to go along with your pizzas :) Everyone come get your Parmesan shavings!!

When the lactose intolerant guy leaves a pizza place a 5 star review, you know it is worth it!! Took a cheat day today and shared two pizzas with the boys tonight at The Gypsy Poet. They have a nice little outdoor patio and some fun seating inside (high tops, regular tables, lounge chairs). Parking on the street outside. The pizzas are 13" with 6 slices; two pizzas for four people was doable but recommend getting 3 if you are hungry. The pepperoni was great and so was the other one we got. I loved that it came with fresh parmesan cheese and greens on the side and it was even better with their spicy honey you can squeeze on it. It took about 25 mins for our pizza to come out and the place was pretty busy.

Tried this place out while in the Midtown area on business recently and left hungry for more. More food that is. First, the ambiance is cute. The seating area is plentiful, parking not so much. We had to park around the corner in a questionable spot and walk. It wasn't bad - just questionable. Also, I'm honestly not even sure this is a family-friendly establishment either... when we got there, the looks weren't exactly welcoming. We love a good artisanal pizza spot, so this was a must-try since it had come highly recommended. Unfortunately, it missed the mark for my family. I ordered a pizza and a salad, a bottled tea and three sugar filled lemonades and the bill was $60. And that was with a military discount. What?!?!? For what we received - it was a very pricey meal portioned to feed one person and in no way near enough for three kids and two adults. I should've known since there was no kids menu... My kids ended up with one mediocre slice of pizza (the pizza came with five smaller slices), zero salad, and a big bottle of expensive sugar water. Needless to say we stopped elsewhere to grab them a bite as this didn't cut it.

I get the hype. Portobello salad? So delicious! I think what really stands out for Gypsy Poet is their fresh ingredients and aesthetic placement of the food. Might be more to it since I'm only basing it off of first impression, but I'll definitely be coming back. Yes, coming back specifically for that portobello salad!

People are crazy about this place. The line was out the door and my friend and I gave each other the "damn, we're screwed" look. But the time line went by fast. When you enter, there are a few coolers and you grab whatever drink you want. You head to the counter, place your order and pay for everything. There's plenty of seating- you just gotta look for it. While you're waiting for your food they have games you can play. We played "Guess Who" and had a blast! Now food... pretty basic. Didn't see the hype behind it. Hated how our pizzas, including dessert, were burnt. I honestly didn't see the hype about this place. Would I go back? If I didn't have a choice.

The place is a very laid back environment with normal pizza. The pizza has a sweet taste to it which wasn't my preference but understand it may be for others. The service was regular and nothing special. Parking during peak hours can be sketchy.

Parking can be a bit tricky. We went there on Saturday 5 minutes before the closing and the restaurant was jam packed. It's a casual place offering both indoor and outdoor seating. They have pizzas, salads and drinks. We ordered Dreamcatcher, margarita and 5 cheese pizza. Loved all of them.

I've visited this place a couple of times with my friends and always enjoy the atmosphere. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, including a charming patio, which adds to the inviting ambiance. Plus, all the staff are super friendly. However, every time I've been here, there's been a line out the door, and it takes about 20 minutes just to place your order. While the pizza selection is varied, it's not the absolute best I've tasted in Houston. Despite that, my friends and I still find ourselves returning here regularly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone seeking a satisfying pizza fix!

I give this place a 4/5 for good pizza, fresh ingredients, and a vibrant ambiance, albiet long wait times and small portion sizes relative to price. To begin, the line was long. It moved at a decent pace, but it was not at a notable efficiency or quickness that some other reviews have mentioned. Once you walk inside, there's a counter where you put in your order, then find a seat. We ordered the fancy backpacker and the capellone big hat. After we ordered, it took around 25 minutes for the pizzas to come out. There is a sign that lets you know pizzas will take about 30 minutes. We had 2 pizzas for 3 people, with 4 slices per person. The crusts are thin, which we prefer. We loved the fancy backpacker. The oven-softened prosciutto paired well with the truffle and arugula. Each pizza also came with additional toppings like fresh parmesean, pepper flakes, and basil. The big hat was average. I recommend asking for the hot honey to drizzle over the pizza. It was delicious.

My friends wanted had such a good experience here previously that they wanted to take me and my sister, and I'm glad they did! The atmosphere of this place is super lively, it was busy and loud but in a good way. The staff were super nice, and they let you know beforehand that the pizzas may take a while to come out. We ordered the Sicilian Journey, Cappellone "Big Hat", and the Fancy Backpacker, but our favorite pizza was the Fancy Backpacker agreed upon all four of us. Prosciutto and arugula is honestly a classic when it comes to artisan pizza, and it'll always be one of my favorites. The dough was crispy and the tomato sauce's sweetness was a good contrast against the saltiness from the prosciutto. Definitely a must order and it's a fan favorite for a reason!

I've been told to try this pizza. I believe it is family owned Venezuelan. It did not disappoint. We got the pepperoni madness, fancy backpacker, and the portobello mushroom salad. All 3 were delicious. The Fancy Backpacker was my favorite pizza. Staff were also extremely friendly. Highly recommended

Solid wood fired pizza. I got the standard margarita and my cousin got the white one without the sausage. We both demolished it lol. Parking was street parking but easy when we went right at opening. I like they gave red chili flakes and Parmesan on the side. It's pretty small inside and there's also outside seating. Pretty cool seating options. I will def be back!

Wow, what a vibe! I came here for a date on a Wednesday night and live music was playing. We ordered a bottle of wine and two different pizzas: pepperoni madness and the fancy backpacker. Both were so tasty, especially with the hot honey the waiter recommended. Everyone was really helpful since it was our first time visiting. I'm not sure if they have live music every night but I will definitely be back on a Wednesday!

With fresh dough made daily, this artesian pizza restaurant is worth getting in during their hours of operation. The staff was extremely cheerful and helpful in navigating the menu. With excitement, we ordered a plethora of pizza for our table. It was around 12:30pm and wasn't too hot outside yet, so we sat outside to enjoy the sun on the patio. The Dream Catcher pizza was crisp on the bottom and the toppings were delicious. The goat cheese was mild and earthy, enhanced with truffle oil to bring out a mushroom flavor to the pizza. The fresh basil and Parmesan on the side were great to add as well. The Pepperoni Madness pizza was well-done, with plenty of large slices of pepperoni that were crispy on the edges. The sauce was savory and the heat from the red pepper flakes made the ice cold drinks even more refreshing.

It's true what they say about Gypsy Poet! Truly the best pizza in Houston. My partner and I went last month and we got the pepperoni pizza and added hot honey. I loved how huge the pieces of Parmesan they gave us were. Everything was so fresh, and the price was amazing for how big the pizza was! The service was so quick and everyone was very friendly. The music was wonderful, and you know good music always makes the food taste better! Lol. Love this place!

Some of the best pizza I've had in Houston. Plus it's just a cool spot in Midtown. Everyone on the staff was really nice as well. Will be my go-to pizza spot from now on.

Best pizza spot in Houston. The dough is always crunchy, the topics are fresh and overall the ambiance of the place is great.

Ugh, I wanted to give it 5 stars but there were a few things that didn't sit well with me so I just couldn't. But let's discuss the awesome first!  The pizza : I mean this is why you're wanting to come here right?  We got the Cappellone "Big Hat".  This lovely crust pizza was topped with the house tomato sauce, Fior di latte (semi-soft cheese), Mozzarella, Portobello mushroom strips, shallots, and Italian sausage.  The crust was the big winner for me here.  A good thin crust wood fired dough can make anything taste good! I swear you could drop that in front of me with some good EVO and crushed herbs and I would have been in heaven.  The toppings were also fresh and left me wishing they had a bit more on the pizza. They were slightly skimpy. We also got the Chopped Caprese which was just OK to me.  Super heavy on the arugula and parm, but lacking on the main 'caprese' ingredients. They also had a nice wine selection which was awesome.  I'm talking about a 92 point rating wine!  So good.   But here's the thing that just left a bad taste in my mouth (so to speak).  The plastic utensil and paper plate thing ... they are charging over 15.00 a pizza, get some plates and real stuff you wash or at least biodegradable ones. I'm eating great pizza and sippin wine and holding plastic in my hand?? Normally I'm all for some good live vibes, but this jazz was volumed up like your were at a heavy metal show.  I had to yell at the guy taking our order and he still didn't hear me and missed that we wanted a salad.  When it never arrived (after our pizza had) I had to ask about it.  But nope it wasn't on our already $66.00 bill for pizza and wine, so we had to go back up and order it again.  It's just not enjoyable to be yelling at your companions so you can catch up over dinner.  So that being said - now I know.  Go for the music and to just sit back (not talk), sip some wine, munch on a slice by hand.  But for me - I think a to go order might be better.  Then I can get that wine for 1/2 price to offset the pizza cost ;)

I LOVE PIZZA. Whether budget pizza, to NY slices, Chicago deep dish, to artisan. Gypsy Poet is totally hip place to get artisan type pizza. As others have mentioned, the menu is small, but every pizza is delicious. Being a Californian, I didn't find this place on my own. Rather, the natives I know pegged The Gypsy Poet as the place where we should get pizza. So one night we got it via Uber Eats. Another week I was craving pizza again, so I placed an order for five pizzas and picked them up. (We had a lot of people that night.) The parking lot is small, but I got lucky with the last spot on my most recent visit. If you love pizza like me, I highly recommend if you're in Houston.

Pizza is very good with unusual options!!! But still prefer COASTLINE OR LUNA (especially with half-priced pizzas on Mondays). Coastline for my $ is perhaps the BEST PIZZA I'VE HAD ANYWHERE (and I've eaten at several #1 in USA Pizza Joints). This said, Gypsy is certainly worth a try!!!
