Tiny Champions 2617 McKinney Street, Houston, TX 77003

"Usually I don’t really rave about a pizza/pasta place but Tiny Champions has me blown away! The interior is warm and cozy and the servers were all incredibly welcoming and helpful. To start off with drinks, my boyfriend and I got the roman courtyard and the cruise control. I personally don’t like very boozy drinks so the roman courtyard was perfect since the drink was sweet and very refreshing from the green apple. My boyfriend loved the cruise control and both cocktails were decorated beautifully. Everyone in the reviews were raving over the Braised Butter Beans and it was definitely worth the hype. The dish was rich in flavor and balanced well with the charred pickled peppers. The texture of the dish was elevated from the torn croutons so every bite was super satisfying. And with the garlic toum and dill, this dish was flavortown all around. We also ordered the Radiator pasta and the Salami Pizza. The radiator pasta is another must get- the pasta was cooked perfectly and I loved how the octopus was very soft and tender. Similar to the Braised Butter Beans, there was a slight crunchy texture which was a pleasant surprise to a pasta dish. As for the Salami Pizza, this was also delicious but nothing out of the world (although the honey drizzled on top was spectacular). Not to mention, the dill ranch sauce & garlic chili oil that came on the side of the pizza was delicious. Make sure to save room for dessert because their home-made ice cream is splendid. We got the lemon ricotta and the buttery flavor from the ricotta was balanced well with the citrus dessert. Their dessert was the perfect way to end such an amazing night full of good food. I can’t wait to come back for happy hour or normal dinner hours to explore the rest of the menu because this place has my mind blown!"

"Flavor: A Service: B Cocktails: A Solo dining: A What a great spot tucked in some sort of warehouse district! The salad, pizza, and pasta we got were all great. We had the chicory salad, spaghetti, and fennel sausage pizza. The squash spaghetti was my favorite."

"Immediately after walking in I love the ambiance. We started with the mushroom risotto which was delicious. It was so creamy and flavorful it’s a must try IMO. The beef and pork bolognese was good but not a standout dish for me. Now the pizza was to die for. We had the fennel sausage with red peppers, red onion and we topped it with hot honey and it was AMAZING. Our waitress Candy was great, she was friendly and welcoming. Will definitely be returning."

"They offer both indoor and outdoor seating options, making it versatile for any weather. The radiator pasta was nice, and the pistachio tart paired with vanilla ice cream was a great way to end the meal. Would return if I’m in the area, but would not drive out of the way to go there if you live on the other side of the city."

"Such a cute spot... Very warm and cozy! The pizza was amazing!!!! My drink was weak... I ordered the paper soilder. Service was a bit slow as we were seated for approximately 15 minutes without attention. However, everything else was super enjoyable. I would go back! Prices are very reasonable."
