    Spicy margarita

    Some of the best pizza I've ever had! Drove here from humble and it is amazing Plenty of parking and seating. Clean restaurant and restrooms. Customer service is great

    Anne Q.

    I had lunch here for the first time yesterday and we had a great experience. This fast-casual pizza restaurant exudes a sense of cleanliness, openness, and modernity. Its minimalist and sleek decor creates a welcoming and stylish dining environment. You order at the counter, and when your food is ready, they bring it out to your table. The service was friendly and efficient. My partner and mom shared the Philly Steak Sub, while I ordered a medium custom pizza with black olives, spinach, and mushrooms to share with everyone. I absolutely love the unconventional square shape and unique cut of the pizza. The crust is crispy with a touch of fluffiness. To describe it best, I'd say it's a delightful fusion of a deep-dish and pan pizza. I like how they were fairly generous with the toppings. Also, unlike other pizzas I've had at other places, the pizzas here are not greasy or oily. This is definitely my new favorite pizza spot! 5/5 ya'll! =) *Ask for a side of their permeasan cheese. You won't regret it.

    Small place Good staff Good pizza Good wings I love the buffalo wing sauce here. Thin, but flavorful. Wings were a good size. Pizza sauce was nicely sweet Puffy dough. Good ratios from topping to sauce to dough. Maybe a bit more crisp on the bottom. But that's all. Good stuff. Would definitely come back

    Medium Super Supreme
    Tiffany H.

    Ordered over the phone. Pizza was ready a few minutes earlier than expected which was nice. Got the medium super supreme. Ate from the box lol. Ingredients were fresh and hot pizza was delicious!! Can't wait to try their other pizzas in the future!

    I ordered wings and cheese bread. The medium buffalo sauce for the wings was good. I also enjoyed the baked Italian. I didn't like the lemon pepper as much. The cheese bread was huge. Taste was ok. The cashier/staff was helpful, and the order is always ready when I come to pick up. Haven't tried the pizza yet, but will try it one day!

    Saw a video and had to try this place out. So good!! Wanted to try the pizza logs and recommend them. As you can see we ate them before remembering to snap a picture. They look like egg rolls but stuffed with cheese and lots of pepperonis. Then the main course of the pizza was great! Great service and very fresh food! They also have pick up as well.

    Best wings I've had in years! The wings were big, juicy, and perfectly cooked... no feathers on the chicken like you sometimes see at other spots. The blue cheese was amazing, and you can tell they use quality ingredients. The guy taking my order did seem a bit annoyed by my questions about the heat level of the sauces, but that won't stop me from coming back. I've definitely found a new go-to spot. The ambiance was really nice too, so I'll be dining in next time. Great spot -- 10/10!

    The best pizza place in Houston. I've been to several pizza places especially in the Aliana/richmond area but none of them could match this place's quality in food or service. Can't go to any of the big brand pizza places anymore - I've recommended and taken friends and family to here over the past two years. Big variety of foods other than pizza included such as subs, fries, wings, and more. Every now and then they do limited time specials but what they offer basically is great selection. Customer service is great, you can order through the website or in person. Decent place to dine in as well, well cleaned and maintained, not big but not too small to dine in. The pizzas come in half, medium, large and party size. The Italian fries are amazing Highly recommend it especially if you tired of big chain pizzas

    #1. 2 Slices of pepperoni & drink
    Sasha D.

    Super great pizza, some of my favorite that I've had in all of Houston. Crust is delicious, especially with all the crusty cheese on it. We tried the pepperoni and I believe the spicy margherita, both were great. The pepperoni lunch special was a fantastic deal, enough pizza to feed 2 people for less than $10. Service was fast and kind. Highly recommend

    Pepperoni Pizza

    If there's a new pizza concept in Houston, I have to check it out. So when I started getting targeted ads for Cup N Char, it was only a matter of time before I dropped by. Cup N Char brings Buffalo, NY-style pizza to Houston. I wasn't aware this was a style of pizza, but the more I read into it, the more it seemed like the pizza style my dad would make when I was growing up in the Northeast. In particular, he would cut the long sticks of pepperoni into thick slices that would fill with magic pepperoni oil. Cup N Char's pepperoni is a little different because while the pepperonis are charred very nicely and do glaze a bit, they are not vats of oil. Still, they are pretty excellent. The pepperonis, cheese, and sauce were amazing. For me, I prefer a softer, more tender crust - but this is just my personal preference and I might just not want to go on a Buffalo, NY pizza crust tour. The business itself was incredibly tidy and spotless, and staff were extremely friendly. Cup N Char is a bit of a ride from Montrose, but I would definitely look to stop by again if I'm on the west side of town. Keep up the great work!

    This is our Favorite spot and thats really all I have to say. Pizza so full and thick. Love the dough

    Owners are friendly and helpful, restaurant is clean . Simple and yet tasty menu. They one meal and made it great . Food came in a timely manner. I will be back and highly recommend this place.

    When I walked into this place, I felt that I have been there before. Then I realized this place used to be Pepperoni's Pizza. I got pizza for my kids here at one time! Now it's "Cup N Char". I was greeted by the owner and made my order. It's a pretty loaded menu. Of course, I'm always going to order pepperoni pizza anyway. Pizza came out hot and fresh. Also served in a box where you can take it home. That saves not having to ask for a to-go box! Pepperoni was cupped and thick at that. Crust was crunchy. It was kinda thick and thin. The owner gave me a discount card for next time I visit. Which I will be back. Plenty of places to sit as well.

    The food is delicious and low price. Get the double stack. It's the best. Be careful carrying the box. Grease leaks out the sides.

Last time the quality was certainly below standards, but tonight was even worse. Granted, two of the pizzas had been done correctly, the third was not as expected. Light sauce was on the receipt because it was ordered online and I verified the receipt after the box was open. The sauce appear to be double instead of light. Not sure how they managed to get the cheese and toppings to slide onto the side of the box, but I should have checked before I left because that box was not shut all the way. The establishment does not have the healthiest of choices, but I have supported them on a regular basis for 10-12 years.

Ever since then, it's been on my list for when I don't know what to eat but I want it to be bang for your buck. Fat Boy's Pizza definitely reminds me of an Italian pizzas in New England and NY. It's by far, the biggest slice of pizza I have ever had. Fries are nice and crispy - though, it may take some time to make. Slices of pizza are ready to order and devour. Thin crust pizza that isn't floppy nor oily. Friendly service, clean and laid back environment. Ordering process is easy. Plenty of parking in the Aliana area of Richmond and there's a faux grass area for kids to play between Blend & Bites and Fat Boy's Pizza. Great spot for first date and grab a cookie from Crumble Cookies or get a froyo and just sit by the faux grass area by any of their outdoor bench. Great for family, great for solo, great for a date, great for sibling quality time. Unfortunately (as of April 12, 2025), it looks like business may not be doing so well or rent/bills too high. They have updated their hours so no more late nights (which is actually my only time here) and now cash only. I hope they can stay in business because I genuinely enjoy this laid restaurant. Is it cheap? Not cheap but for the quality and quantity of food you get, it's reasonable pricing. Plus, they're halal so great for the Muslims family in this nook of town.
