Between 1960 and 1975, European film production companies made nearly 600 westerns. Critics either blasted or ignored these films, and because they were financed by Italian companies, they called them spaghetti westerns. Fans of the genre embraced the term which is now lovingly used to label any western made and financed by continental film makers. Now that you know where we got our name, it’s time you come on in and give us a try.
Classic Italian fare with Tex-Mex accents in a casual setting with vintage movie posters & a patio.

I was a first time visitor to Houston on a business trip this past month and was fortunate enough to stumble upon this local neighborhood gem! Their pasta and pizza were delicious and nice portions for the price. The ambiance matches the vibe of the dishes and drinks they serve. The staff and owners are super nice greeted me like family and I really felt that southern hospitality coming from New York City. I’d definitely stop by again!

I came to Spaghetti Western at Shepherd a few times. I like the pasta dish. Flavorful. I usually come with my friends whenever they decided to meet up. Parking is somewhat challenging.

I went in the other night and really liked the environment. It is a little hole in the wall type of place with a great vibe. The food was really good, everything was seasoned well, and it tasted amazing. The customer service was great too. They took the time to explain the different plates and helped us decide which option would be the best. Our waiter did not hover over us but was very attentive and came by whenever he noticed we needed refills. I usually do not leave food reviews, but I had to for this one. It was a last minute pick and I am really glad it did not disappoint. Definitely worth checking out.

First timer and it’s a cute spot! The food could use some work, maybe seasonings and cooking time but overall such a good experience.
We had Greg as our server and he was the best. Very attentive and didn’t seem to be bothered with our questions/requests.
We started off with some drank which for beer prices, really good and didn’t taste flat like most people’s I get draft from.
The appetizers we chose were the potato skins and wings. The potato skins were super fresh when we got them however I’m more of a less is better type of gal when it comes to these sides, still good but didn’t care for the chicken or sour cream. My boyfriend did however enjoy the chicken. The wings were also really fresh and the breading was so good. We did ask for hot sauce on the side and they warmed it up which made the flavor taste good x2.
My boyfriend and I shared the Shrimp & Crawfish Alfredo Pasta and a 10” inch pizza. We both agreed the shrimp didn’t taste like it had seasoning and was kind of bland but was fresh and the pasta was cooked to perfection. The pizza i did think it could’ve been cooked a little longer, I don’t care for soft breading on my pizza, not saying I want it burnt but a little crunch never hurt anyone. I will give them this, the sauce was really good that didn’t lack any flavor. The cheese was super cheesy, reminded me of the goofy movie pizza.
Overall this place has potential and the staff they have truly stands out and makes you want to come back. Wouldn’t mind trying different food the next time because I’m sure each dish has its own speciality.
We paid $80 in total for everything with tip.

Half portion doesn’t mean half price!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We went there just the previous Sunday for lunch. It was about 2pm and it wasn’t busy there. As i usually can’t finish a full portion of a meal, so i asked the waitress if i could order a kid’s menu, she said and suggested i could actually order a half portion of a complete meal BUT WITHOUT telling me upfront the price of a half portion. I just assumed the price would be just half of a full price of that dish. I ordered a half portion of Pomodora Pasta (one full dish costs 16 USD), so I thought I just needed to pay 8 USD for a half portion. But then when we asked for the bill, my half portion of that dish turned out to be 13 USD. When we asked her how the price was determined, she said that’s the way it was. When collecting our payment, she sent another waitress to deal with us, and I asked this other waitress if adults could order kid’s menu there, she didn’t answer “yes” or “no” but just said basically their boss doesn’t encourage and want that. So we paid speechless and left without tipping since we felt like being cheated. To us, doing business with honesty is the most important criteria for our consideration for patronage of restaurants. We don’t mind paying a bit more if we had been told about the price upfront. It is really unwise for business to trade off their integrity just for making a few more bucks. At the end, you will lose customers in the long run.. We would never come back again and would not recommend this restaurant to others. Very disappointed.

My classmates and I went there right after graduation. We had a large group. We used their group seating area. I wasnt sure if i wanted to eat here by the looks of the place. It is not a fancy place but they had great appetizers and friendly attentive staff! There was a guy server ( I forgot his name, maybe it’s Mike) He was a super server! He helped us move tables and was very friendly and attentive. Free parking in the front and rear of the building.

A cute western spaghetti mom and pop…ADA wheelchair ♿️ including the bathrooms. The bar was fast plus the food was delicious! The Fried Rivoli was so yummy. I will come again to eat more. Reasonably priced.

I met up with some friends and we had the thursday special which was steak and a baked potato. The steak was juicy and cooked to perfection. Very flavorful steak. The potato was a more than little over cooked. We also had the cheese cake slice, and that was very delicious.

Absolutely excellent. I got the Pasta Man’s Special per the recommendation of waiter. The chicken was excellent with the risotto and spinach. The crab cake is super unique because the stuffing looked like it had spaghetti inside (which really fit the theme in a clever way). It was a little sweet and was really good with the sauce. Speaking on the sauce, I think it was good enough despite the rest of my party thinking it wasn’t enough. I have a huge issue with risotto being overly sauced and too salty. This risotto did not have that problem whatsoever.
The atmosphere is possibly the coolest place I’ve ever been to. The posters on the wall need to be experienced in person. Many classics make an appearance.
If I was to have one complaint it was parking in the front. If you can, park in the back. I parked in the front to simulate me parking my horse in front of the saloon so the danger there added to the realism.
