Try the Antipasto Buffet - #NAFSA12 amazing
Chef Ferrarese's signature short rib ravioli with black truffle and corn purée is a favorite, as are his perfectly executed risotto dishes. Sunday brunch is a popular draw, too, with a lavish buffet!
For a special occasion, reserve the Chef’s Table, an inviting Tuscan-ish room with a fascinating view of the kitchen.
Try the Antipasti Platter
The three dip combo is a great way to try their variety of Italian and Italian inspired creations. Attached is the tomato goat cheese, chicken pâté and bean dip.
It's a conglomeration of serving styles and Italian dishes, both large and small that make this neighborhood restaurant endearing and very, very good. [Eater 38 Member]
Great authentic Italian restaurant in downtown. Owners are friendly and accommodating, and food is great (try the chicken parm). Don't fill up on the free bread
The Crepes di Pollo is creamy and delicious.
No matter what you order the flavor is fresh ingredients home made good italian fare!
Pappardelle Aragosta was very good. Crab cake appetizer. Nice ambiance. Small, cozy dining area. Service was outstanding!
Maybe the best Italian food in Houston area. It's small so consider making reservations.
The unique way they shared the menu was unique and entertaining
Great family place. I’m not sure which appetizer is my favorite. Great cheese sticks, fried mushrooms, breadsticks and garlic cheese bread and so many more. The chicken parm sandwich is legendary
For family gatherins' suggest the round table-- best memories were there.
The sweet potato fries are AWESOME!!!
Garlic knots are delicious, and we had the blackened flounder with fettuccine. Fantastic and great service! Great view outside.
Warning: The Garlic Knots here are so delicious, that you may forget about saving room for your pizza or pasta!
Minestrone is really amazing!
The meatball pizza was great! And the service even better.
Service is great. Unlimited breadsticks and homemade pasta are delicious.
Outstanding pizzas.
Friendly staff. The tableside made Caesar salad is great. Had the lasagna and it was excellent.
Large banana pepper sausage and mushroom. Awesome!
Great pizza!
If you're dining alone they let you purchase a half pitcher.
My number one spot for Brazilian! They have chicken Parmesan that fogo don't have. Complimentary desert for special occasions! And #1 offers a 20% military discount!
Beware of the disc on your table; it's red on one side and green on the other. With the green side up, the eager servers will make sure you never see the bottom of your plate! Read more.
The service is impeccable and the food is oh so fabulous! This one just opened here in Houston.
Almost as good as the main midtown location. They got rid of their deli 😔
10 employees will be standing at the door doing nothing. Avoid eye contact
This spec's is huge! Best in the area!!
Savory cuisine complimented by an exquisite wine list makes for a rich and delicious experience. Trouble deciding which entre to order? Try the tuna carpaccio!

The duck is amazing.
Amazing food! Always eat here when I am in town :)
No matter where I live in Houston I come to Star for pizza. There is just no good reason to go anywhere else.
Their deep dish pizza is prepared on a whole wheat crust with mounds of veggies, cheese and sauce, this is what I like to call a fork and knife slice. Read more.
