"My second time dining in at Christopher's. We came with friends family for the trivia night. They were almost full when we arrived at 6:15. We had a party of 7 part of our group was already there so no problem getting a table. Our friends had ordered a couple of appetizers before we arrived they were delivered to the table shortly after we sat down to join them. The waitress took our drink orders right away but that was it, we ordered a beer a glass of wine. After about 10 minutes she came back to the table to get our order but my husband asked her about our drinks. She apologized, left the table headed to the bar. We didn't see her or our drinks for about another 10 minutes. The drinks were brought by another server then our server arrived to take our orders shortly after. We ordered 4 pizza's, 12 size, a small meat lovers Stromboli an order of garlic knots. The food arrived fairly quickly looked great. The small Stromboli is huge can easily feed 2 people. It tasted great with a lot of meat stuffed in it a nice balance of cheese. The garlic knots are really delicious, soft, buttery garlicky. The pizzas are average for me, I prefer a NY style pizza crust. My son I also ordered a cannoli to share, sorry didn't get a pic because he dove in before I could, but it was delicious looking. The shell was crisp the filling was creamy, not too sweet, a really good cannoli. The trivia was really fun we were able to understand the announcer better than the last time. This is definitely a nice way to enjoy an evening out with friends family. I would rate Christopher's higher but both times I have been there to dine-in, in a 2 week period, the service has been horrible. I don't think it's the servers fault. Tonight there only seemed to be 1 actual server taking orders 2 other servers that were helping bring out food drinks. The place was packed so either their servers don't work well as a team or they were understaffed. I felt bad for her because you could see she was busting her buns trying to get to all the tables. In the end the portions are large, the food is good, the prices are reasonable the atmosphere is great for family as well meeting up with friends."

"So, funny thing... I Yelped pizza joints near the Marriott Marquis for delivery, and this place looked like the ticket. After ordering, receiving my order and taking the obligatory pic of my food, another picture popped up. Wouldn 't you know it? It was my own pic from seven years prior! Though I was remiss in not reviewing this joint in a timely manner the first time around, I 'm making good with a reassertion that Gotham Pizza is outstanding for folks who truly appreciate a NY-style pie. Gotham Pizza was my first NY-style pie in Houston back in 2015. It was delicious. After realizing that there were other joints (much) closer to my home near the bay, I never really thought of them again, Enter October 2022 and a staycation at the Marriott Marquis. After an 80-minute massage and some Champagne and microbrewed beer, there was no way I was leaving my room. I searched pizza on Yelp and Gotham fit the bill. Who knew that I was returning to my first NY-style pie in Houston? Certainly not me! Bottom line: Gotham brings to the table a nicely charred crust with quality sauce and toppings. In my experience, eating in and receiving delivery is equally clutch. I 'm not sure about the $15 slice as I 've seen in another review, though the menu does offer a giant slice for a few dollars less. My pie was $12-15, and I took a couple slices home to Seabrook and rewarmed the next day. Thumbs up to this joint. Really good NY-style pizza!"
