About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Neighbourhood gem
Great for outdoor dining

Coppa Osteria is the perfect paring of food and lifestyle, taking its personality from the affluent, family centric West University, Southampton, Rice and Museum District neighborhoods. Its clientele is an eclectic mix of professionals, university academics and young families – who all seem to know one another. With craft cocktails and an extensive wine list, it's easy to find the perfect beverage to pair with Coppa's modern Italian cuisine. Neapolitan-inspired pizzas are some of the most popular items on the menu – the Coppa Pepperoni and Carnissima are crowd favorites. Diners also flock for the Fritto Misto, Burrata Tartufo and Spaghetti Carbonara (Coppa's signature dish). Complete with a lively bar scene and a large outdoor patio that lends itself to sipping rosé and taking in the surrounding neighborhood scenery, Coppa is the ideal setting for an intimate all-day dining with family & friends.

We love the food here and often come with family and friends. However, our experience on Easter was disappointing. Our server only came to the table twice — once to take the order and once to bring the check. It felt inattentive, especially compared to our past visits.

Food is great. Spaghetti Carbonara and Hanger steak are awesome. Deserts are great. Seating outside is probably the way to go. We came here for Valentine’s Day and for my Birthday. Both times it was really good.

This is definitely a neighborhood gem & was very busy even on a week night - recommend reservations. The food is excellent/the wine list somewhat lacking on Italians for being an Italian restaurant. Immediately give up on parking & go valet. It's quite noisy. Is reasonably priced as well - will definitely go back next time in Houston.

Every thing was wonderful. The server was very nice. The only “issue” was he wasn’t as attentive as we would have preferred. He may have been the only waiter outside, but we had to ask twice for one refill of tea and twice for ice for the tea. Love the restaurant and food and will be back!
