- Best Pizza in Cypress, TX: 10 Pizzerias by Style
Cypress has ten independently owned and operated pizzerias spread across its main corridors — Fry Road, Barker Cypress Road, Spring Cypress Road, the Northwest Freeway, and the US-290 bypass — covering every major style from New York hand-tossed to wood-fired Neapolitan to Indian fusion. Every restaurant below was confirmed operating on its own official website or official social media page as of October 2026.
What “Cypress” means here: ZIP codes 77429 and 77433, the unincorporated Harris County community bounded by US-290 as the eastern edge, Spring Cypress Road to the north, Barker Cypress Road as the western spine, and FM 529 to the south. This takes in Bridgeland, Towne Lake, Fairfield, Grant Road, and the Huffmeister corridor.
New York-style: hand-tossed dough, foldable slices
Russo’s New York Pizzeria
Two Cypress locations: 10615 Fry Rd (Bridgeland) and 28610 Hwy 290 (Fairfield Town Center)
Russo’s is the most visible NYC-style operation in Cypress, with two locations a few miles apart. The kitchen uses 24-hour-fermented dough, imported Sicilian extra-virgin olive oil, and makes sauces, lasagna, and gnocchi in-house daily. Both locations are open daily: the Bridgeland shop runs Sunday–Thursday 10:30 am–9 pm and Friday–Saturday 10:30 am–10 pm; the Fairfield Town Center location runs 11 am–10 pm daily. What to order: the Doppio Pepperoni or the Margherita. Gluten-free dough and vegan options are available.
Brooklyn Pizzeria
8020 Fry Rd, Cypress, TX 77433 · open daily 11 am–10 pm
This is the ninth location of a Houston-area hand-tossed pizza chain, opened on Fry Road in August 2023. The kitchen makes fresh dough daily and runs its own delivery to Bridgeland, Towne Lake, and the Copperfield area — not just third-party apps. What to order: the calzones consistently draw repeat customers; the baked ziti is the strongest pasta option. Card and cash accepted.
Brother’s Pizza Parlor
25282 Northwest Freeway, Ste 120, Cypress, TX 77429 · Mon–Thu 11 am–9 pm, Fri–Sat 11 am–10 pm, Sun noon–8 pm · no delivery
The fact most people who moved here in the last decade don’t know: Brother’s has been at this address on the Northwest Freeway since 1980. That predates most of the master-planned subdivisions that grew up around it. The restaurant specializes in East Coast-style pizza with a hand-tossed crust and house-made sauce. The signature pie, the Brother’s Special, carries pepperoni, mushrooms, sweet onions, black olives, hamburger, Canadian bacon, green peppers, and extra cheese. Cold beer, sub sandwiches on fresh-baked rolls, and pasta round out the menu. Dine-in and carryout only.
Wood-fired and Neapolitan: charred crust, quick bake
Vittorio’s Pizza and Pasta
9740 Barker Cypress Rd, Cypress, TX 77433 · Tue–Fri 4–9 pm, Sat–Sun 2–9 pm · closed Mondays
Vittorio’s runs a wood-fired oven and leans toward Italian classics: Margherita, Quattro Formaggi, and Bianca. The dinner-only schedule and 2 pm weekend opening make it best suited to an evening sit-down rather than a quick weekday stop. The pasta side of the menu — shrimp scampi, tortellini, fettuccine alfredo — is worth exploring if the table wants more than pizza.
Wood Fired Pizza Company
15210 Spring Cypress Rd, Ste E, Cypress, TX 77429 · Wed–Thu 4–8:30 pm, Fri–Sat 4–9 pm · closed Sun–Tue
A neighborhood pizzeria on Spring Cypress Road that, according to its own website, has been in Cypress since 2006. The menu is built around a wood-fired oven: create-your-own pies, a rotating list of house specialties, calzones, salads, and garlic rounds. Hours are limited to four evenings a week — call (281) 256-7800 or visit wfpizza.com before making the trip.
Fiamma Vera Pizza
14550 Spring Cypress Rd, Cypress, TX 77429 · Mon–Sat 12:30–8 pm, Sun 12:30–7 pm
Fiamma Vera does Neapolitan-style pizza from a dedicated truck on Spring Cypress Road. The dough is hand-stretched and fired in a high-heat oven, producing the blistered, char-spotted crust the style is known for. The menu focuses on the classic Neapolitan roster: Margherita, Marinara, and seasonal specials. A second location operates at 25510 Kuykendahl Rd. No website; follow @fiamma.pizzatx on Instagram for daily updates and catering availability.
Italian thin crust: from-scratch recipes, sit-down dining
Locatelli’s
Two locations: 13215 Grant Rd, Ste 500 (original, open 15+ years) and 12904 Fry Rd, Ste 100 (with full bar and pet-friendly patio)
Locatelli’s thin-crust pizzas are built on recipes the restaurant’s website describes as “passed down several generations.” The dough is crisp and Roman-style rather than foldable. Every signature pie carries a portmanteau name: the CarnaTelli (sausage, pepperoni, ham, ground beef, bacon), the TexaTelli (sausage, red onion, jalapeños, banana peppers, red bell pepper), the PestaTelli (pesto base, grilled chicken, tomato slices, four cheeses), and the LocaTelli (sausage, mushrooms, olives, red bell pepper). The Fry Road location has a bar and pet-friendly patio. Both locations open daily Sunday–Thursday 11 am–9 pm, Friday–Saturday 11 am–10 pm.
Crust Pizza Co.
Two Cypress locations: 27008 Northwest Freeway and 20240 Summit Point Crossing (Bridgeland, opened August 2025)
Crust Pizza Co. is a Texas-based chain built around Chicago-style thin crust. The kitchen shreds mozzarella in-house daily and makes fresh dough multiple times throughout the day. The Bridgeland location at Summit Point Crossing opened in August 2025 and features a modern dining room designed for dine-in rather than fast-casual. Both locations open daily 11 am–9 pm (Friday–Saturday until 10 pm).
Indian fusion: spiced toppings, halal options
Pizza Twist
10760 Barker Cypress Rd, Ste 200, Cypress, TX 77433 · Mon–Thu and Sun 10 am–10 pm · Fri–Sat 10 am–midnight
Pizza Twist makes Indian-spiced pizza — the only fusion option in Cypress and the pick for a group with varied tastes. The kitchen’s signatures are the Butter Chicken Pizza, Tandoori Chicken Pizza, and Achari Chicken Pizza, each using house-made spice preparations on fresh dough. The restaurant is halal-certified, with vegetarian and vegan options available. Standard pizzas are also on the menu.
How we chose
The ten restaurants here share two requirements: a menu where pizza is the main event, and confirmed operating hours on the restaurant’s own website or official Instagram page as of October 2026. We excluded national chains, restaurants that have closed, and any spot whose site no longer posts current hours. Russo’s and Locatelli’s each have two Cypress locations; each appears once because the kitchens and menus are the same at both. For the full Cypress dining picture, see the best restaurants in Cypress, TX guide.
