    Has there ever been a thread about taking pictures of the food you've bought? Like a collection of food images from different places, so that members have an idea of what they can expect?

    Good idea in theory, but the problem is I already kind of know what pizza looks like.

    If you think McDonalds makes the best burgers in town, most likely you think Pizza Inn has the best pizza.
    I recommend Star Pizza for best Pizza Buffet in Houston.
    Frank's downtown and Luigi's on Jones also makes great pizza but no buffet.
    My guess is your friends are probably just like it as a cheap place to fill up.
    There is way better Pizza in town.
    It takes three things to make great pizza.
    1) Knowledge (it is an art that must be taught, not from a Pizza Inn manual)
    2) Quality Ingredients (from the dough, to the amount of sauce, to the shred of the cheese)
    3) Great Oven (preferably a brick or dedicated pizza oven, not a conveyor belt)
    Trust me, find a place that has these, and you've found a place with great pizza.

    A. 99.9% of all buffets are horrible. You should never eat at one unless you find one on a deserted island.
    B. Good pizza hardly if ever exists in Houston/Texas.

    With that said, one of the few exceptions to the "no good pizza in Houston" rule is Grimaldi's in The Woodlands. If I'm going to eat pizza, and that is not often, I want it from there.

    I disagree.

    Fuzzy's and Romano's both server excellent pizza.

    I've been to Grimaldi's once, and it was awesome.

    Pizza Inn is the best pizza nobody else likes. I don't get it -- I like it much better than Pizza Hut/Dominos/etc., yet all of them are getting shut down!

    Cool. We used to go there sometimes back in the 80's. I think I remember the driving range. It reminds me of the clowns I used to hang out with as a teenager. We almost got kicked out of there because one of my friends decided to pull out a 2 liter bottle of Pepsi he had brought in to avoid paying too much for their drinks or something (it was really probably because he wanted to be a dumbass. lol.). Pizza Hut was owned by PepsiCo, so Pizza Inn didn't like Pepsi on their premises, I guess. lol. My friend proceeded to try and debate why he should be allowed to drink whatever he pleased there, even the stuff he brought in. It went something like that anyway... it's been a while.

    There was a Hartz Chicken across from what used to be a Randall's (not sure what it is now) at 2234 and Cartwright. On the last day of school of our senior year, I think, police asked us to leave because the owners got scared when about 40 of us were in the parking lot just hanging around.

    Ah memories of being dumb kids. I kind of miss that.... but not very much. ;)

    Had Pink's for the first time on Saturday. It was alright. Not as good as Star or Fuzzy's I suppose.
