We recently visited this Mexican spot in Fashion Place and had a solid time. The shrimp tacos (which were the taco of the day) were super fresh. The chicken tacos were just as good, and our server was on point, explaining what was gluten-free and even knew the cheese was pasteurized, which was useful for my wife with dietary needs. The chips and salsa were great too, super crispy and the salsa had a nice kick. Portions were generous, everything tasted great, but it was kinda quiet with not many people eating. Restaurant was clean though, so no complaints there. Definitely worth checking out!
Tasty, healthy, affordable fast food. This is our go-to for takeout (eat-in atmosphere is blah). Great for anyone with dietary restrictions—it's easy to get a balanced vegan meal, or to avoid gluten (which they keep out of most of their staple sauces & mains). Zao is much better than most of the food available in this neighborhood (except Piko, which is a whole other ballgame).
My wife and I are Gluten-Free. Orangel was EXTREMELY careful and attentive to our needs!
It’s always stressful going into a restaurant because some are more understanding than others with the whole GF situation.
But the service was quick, friendly and super awesome! Thanks Orangel and staff!
Oh. My. The Fatted Sow was hands down the most delightfully delicious burger I have ever eaten (inhaled??) in my entire life. I licked my plate clean and didn’t even notice that I was eating a gluten free bun because the flavor was so full and tasty. Two thumbs ups”, five stars, and please bring one to Houston!
Wow, the chicken alfredo is a winner! Seriously some high quality pizza. The bread twists and calzones are also fantastic. Gluten free crust is top notch.
The food is great and we generally have a good experience, but they don’t know how to apply their own coupons correctly.
Tonight we used the buy 1/2 sandwich get 1/2 free. We need to have the gluten free bread, but they don’t make GF 1/2 sandwiches since the bread is so small. He told us they would put half the amount of meat on and just charge us for half. They made both of the sandwiches with half the meat but charged for a whole sandwich AND a half sandwich. One of the sandwiches should have had full meat since we paid for a full. We were shorted half a sandwich worth of meat! And since it was pastrami, we paid even extra! Not cool!!
Our family has supported Main Street Pizza from the time we moved here nearly two years ago. We are big proponents of supporting local business. I sincerely wish I didn't feel my only option was writing a poor review.
I called Main Street Pizza today to ask for the owners email so I could write them personally. I was 100% positive they would not be pleased with their management of the pizzas going out.
The manager working when I got my pizza today at 3:30pm (2/25/22) said that they didn't have the owners email or phone number or any contact information and they said I couldn't meet them in person because when the owner comes is sporadic. Okay. Next line of help:
I tried communicating with the manager why I wanted to support them as a local business and why I was disappointed in 90% of our orders with them. We have a very simple order. He challenged every one of my issues with excuses.
Here is my request: one cheese pizza and one crispy bacon & pepperoni pizza. One gluten free cheese pizza. Cook them well done. If the toppings are sparse, I want extra toppings and I'm great paying for that.
That's it. That's the order.
We are a potential $50-$60 a week customer. Not much, but we buy pizza every Friday. Each time I order from Main Street I ask for our pizza to be left in the oven until it's well done. I have yet to get that request fulfilled. The manager told me cooking well done pizza isn't always possible since they might be busy and need to get the pizzas out. That's not a problem for Two Jacks pizza down the road...additionally, I placed my order at 3:30pm at a low traffic time of day. At the time we picked our pizza up today, we were the only pizza being prepared.
Also, Main Street Pizza goes very light on the amount of toppings they give. That's fine I can work around that by ordering extra of everything. Today I ordered "extra sauce, extra cheese, and extra toppings". As fate would have it, yet again, not only did they leave out one of the toppings (crispy bacon), from the photo below you can see they put the pepperoni UNDER the cheese which leaves the pepperoni soggy and uncooked. Our family joked that we should require one of the staff to eat one slice of their pizza and see if they can stomach what they made.
Additionally the pizza crust is soggy on the bottom (not well done).
Lastly, the metal pizza tray it was cooked on was not removed but placed in the pizza box.
I really want to support local!
I want our business owners to know we want them to stay!
Sadly, I can't continue to throw away money so I'm taking my business to Two Jacks down the road. I really hope this review initiates a conversation with someone who can change things so I can remove it and not have to leave it up. I don't want local businesses to lose customers.
The photos below is the crispy bacon & pepperoni pizza. Though you can't see the pepperoni under the cheese or the crispy bacon (not included), you get the gist.
Absolutely delicious! I got the Philly, and my friend got the tri tip salad. I put 4 stars, (which is entirely a me issue) because there was a lot of green bell pepper and only a little red bell and I don't prefer green, so I picked it out, and that's why there was so little bell pepper left. 😐🫣
My friend is gluten-free, and they offer a GF fryer, so it's not cross contaminated. That was really cool. Thank you for the great service, I will absolutely be back!
Burger 3/5
I got the wagyu burger. The patty was small and unseasoned. The meat didn’t taste any better than a regular patty. Enjoyed the fried egg add on and the fresh toppings.
Variety 5/5
Appreciate they offer gluten free buns. Condiments are free.
Garlic parm Fries 5/5
Seasoned well and crispy
Service 5/5
Super friendly staff, patient and helpful!
Clean restaurant. Unsure if I would want to come back and order a non wagyu burger to see if the patty is better but I think I prefer smashed patties on burgers.
Celiac friendly
