Best Pizza in Kingwood, TX: Pizzerias by Style

Kingwood's best pizza spans more styles than its forest-suburb reputation suggests. RC's NYC Pizza on Kingwood Drive is the neighborhood institution for a real NY fold; Jet's on Mills Branch is the area's only Detroit-style deep dish; and Parry's Pizzeria & Taphouse has 70 rotating craft beers on tap alongside its char-blistered pies. This guide covers ten verified spots, organized by style.

For this guide, Kingwood means zip codes 77339 and 77345, roughly bounded by US 59 (I-69) to the east, FM 1960 to the south, West Lake Houston Parkway to the west, and Lake Houston to the north. One pick — Italiano's on FM 1960 East — sits in the 77346 (Atascocita) zip code, but it draws a large share of Kingwood diners and is noted as such.

How we chose

Every pizzeria on this list was confirmed currently open via its official site or official ordering page as of October 2026. We organized by style rather than location because most Kingwood pizzerias cluster along Kingwood Drive, and what you're in the mood for is a more useful filter than which end of the street you want to drive to. Hours change; treat every schedule here as a starting point and check the official site before you go.

New York–style: the classic fold

Kingwood has three strong NY-style options at different price and atmosphere points.

RC's NYC Pizza & Pasta

1202 Kingwood Drive, Suite A · typically closed Tuesdays

RC's is the local institution: a neighborhood slice shop that Kingwood regulars recommend when someone asks where to find a real New York pie outside the Loop. The Grandma Pie — a square, thick-rimmed pan pizza with a well-crisped bottom — is the move when you want something beyond a standard round. The Stinger, with hot honey and pepperoni, earns repeat orders. Garlic knots are made in-house. Hours are typically Sunday, Monday, and Wednesday–Thursday 11am–8pm; Friday–Saturday 11am–9pm.

Best for: eating in on a weeknight, taking home a whole pie.

Russo's New York Pizzeria & Italian Kitchen

42 N Main St, Kingwood · open daily

Russo's is a Houston-area chain that delivers on its giant NY slice premise: wide, floppy, fold-down-the-middle slices made from dough that proofs for 24 hours, with no seed oils and imported Sicilian olive oil in the mix. The kitchen runs a full Italian menu — pasta, chicken parmigiana, lasagna — so it works for a table with mixed appetites. Hours are typically daily 11am–9pm weekdays, 11am–10pm weekends; check the site before you go.

Best for: big groups, slice lunch, a full Italian meal alongside pizza.

Brooklyn Pizzeria

1345 Kingwood Drive · open daily

Brooklyn Pizzeria is a Houston-area hand-toss pizza chain with an open kitchen: you can watch the dough being stretched and tossed before it goes in the oven. The Brooklyn Special piles on pepperoni, hamburger, Canadian bacon, mushrooms, olives, and bell pepper; the Truffle Funghi is the move for mushroom fans. There's a children's play corner, which makes it a practical dinner option for families.

Best for: families, watching the dough get tossed.

Parry's Pizzeria & Taphouse

4331 Kingwood Drive · open daily

Parry's is the beer-forward option: 70 rotating craft beers on tap alongside New York–style thin-crust pies with a char-blistered crust. That tap count is the detail worth knowing — it puts Parry's in a different conversation from the other pizza places on Kingwood Drive. The crust blisters at the edge. The Five Boroughs (a classic cheese pie) and the Uncle Sam with bacon are the steady orders. Hours typically start at 11am daily.

Best for: beer drinkers, groups that want something interesting on draft, a game-night spot.

Detroit-style: square, thick, caramelized-edge

Jet's Pizza

2611 Mills Branch Drive, Suite 100 · open daily

Jet's is the only Detroit-style option in Kingwood. Detroit-style means a rectangular, thick, airy crust with a buttery caramelized-cheese edge where the cheese is pushed all the way to the pan wall. Order the 8 Corner Pizza — the corners are the best bites — and ask for the turbo crust add-on (crispy top, available free). Cupped pepperoni is the right topping call: the cups crisp at the edges. Hours are typically Sunday–Thursday 10am–9pm, Friday–Saturday 10am–10pm.

Best for: anyone who hasn't tried Detroit-style; a reliable delivery night.

Stuffed crust

Crust Pizza Co. — Kingwood Docks

4625 Kingwood Drive, Suite 800 · open daily

Crust is a Texas-born chain that makes its dough multiple times daily and shreds the cheese fresh from the block. The stuffed crust holds up at the tip rather than collapsing, which chain stuffed crust rarely does. The wings are a legitimate side order — reviewers consistently rate them above dedicated wing chains. Hours are typically Monday–Thursday 11am–9pm, Friday–Saturday 11am–10pm, Sunday 11am–9pm. A second Kingwood location is at 30129 Rock Creek Drive (Kingwood Place).

Best for: stuffed-crust fans, wings as a side.

Fast-casual: build your own

MOD Pizza — Kingwood

300 Northpark Drive, Suite 700 · open daily

MOD is the build-your-own option: 30-plus toppings at one flat price, made while you watch. The crust is very thin and slightly crackery — different in texture from everything else on this list. It works well for weeknight speed and for groups where everyone has different preferences. Hours are typically Monday–Wednesday 10:30am–10pm, Thursday–Saturday 10:30am–11pm, Sunday 10:30am–10pm. A second Kingwood location is at 4537 Kingwood Drive, Suite 100.

Best for: fast weeknights, custom orders, picky eaters.

Late-night delivery

Marco's Pizza

1310 Northpark Drive · open until midnight Friday–Saturday

Marco's is the late-night answer. It stays open until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays — later than any other Kingwood pizzeria on this list. The three-cheese blend (fresh mozzarella, provolone, Asiago) is a cut above most delivery chains. The Pepperoni Magnifico uses cupped pepperoni; the stuffed crust is reliably good. Weekday hours are typically 10:30am–11pm.

Best for: late-night delivery, game nights.

Full Italian sit-down

Italiano's — Kingwood

1414 Northpark Drive, Suite I · check site for closed day

Italiano's has been in the Northpark corridor long enough to be a neighborhood original. The menu covers hand-tossed NY-style pizza (available by the slice at lunch), calzones, lasagna, manicotti, and chicken marsala. Come here when you want a full Italian dinner, not just a pie. Hours are typically Sunday–Thursday 11am–9pm, Friday–Saturday 11am–10pm.

Best for: sit-down Italian dinner, slices at lunch.

Italiano's — Atascocita

8146 FM 1960 East, Atascocita · open daily

This FM 1960 location sits in the 77346 zip code (technically Atascocita), but it pulls a large share of its business from Kingwood's Kings Mill and Forest Cove neighborhoods. The menu includes lobster ravioli — a step up from the standard Italian-American lineup — plus a full range of classics. Same family, same dough.

Best for: Sicilian pies, the full Italian sit-down experience.
