Created by the founders of El Tiempo Cantina, Houston’s First Family of Tex Mex, Laurenzo’s Restaurant features the other side of their family’s Italian, Mexican and American Culinary Heritage. The menu, one of the largest in the city, is packed with recipes dating back generations, and includes fresh Gulf Seafood, Prime Rib, and home-made pasta. If you’re in the mood for good ‘old home-style cooking’ made from scratch daily with the freshest of ingredients, then Laurenzo’s is your place. The family has been cooking with love in Houston for over three generations, just the way their matriarch Mama Ninfa Laurenzo taught them.

    Wanted to try a nice Italian place.. got the Butter fish but it was too creamy which wasn’t expected, steaks were very good, pizza was not good, michelada was also not good at all. Would not recommend.

    The staff and the service was great, but for the prices I didn’t expect to be at a sports bar experience. I was expecting a more romantic ambience.
