Houston Pizza Menu With Prices In Canada

A single line on the Houston Pizza menu explains why the price range on this page stretches to $167.99: Baked Seafood Fettuccini, Large, serving twenty. Four of the restaurant's twenty sections are catering trays, and they sit at the top of a list whose cheapest item is a $1.49 tub of sauce.

Strip the catering out and the menu reads very differently. The four catering sections — a starter, five combinations, eight salads and ten pastas — hold 24 of the 318 items and every one of the ten dearest prices. Baked Lasagna or Spaghetti for twenty is $106.99, Fettuccini Alfredo and Baked Penne Rosa are $104.99 each, and a large Greek Salad for twenty is $103.99. The half-size trays serving ten run roughly 55 to 60 percent of those figures: Baked Seafood Fettuccini falls from $167.99 to $89.99, Baked Lasagna from $106.99 to $57.99.

Pizza is a four-by-four grid

Every pizza on this menu is sold at 8″, 10″, 13″ and 15″, which is why the two pizza sections alone account for 148 items. Traditional Pizzas run $14.45, $22.99, $34.69 and $47.25 across the sizes. Gourmet Pizzas mostly run $16.75, $25.25, $40.95 and $52.50, with Spinach & Feta priced a little below the rest at $15.75 to $49.35. The interesting part is the shape of the increase — going from 8″ to 10″ costs about $8.50, from 10″ to 13″ about $15.70, and from 13″ to 15″ about $11.55. The steps are not even, and the 13″ is where the largest single jump lands.

Create Your Own Pizza prices by topping count rather than recipe: one free topping is $12.89 at 8″ and $40.99 at 15″, two is $13.95 to $44.25, three is $14.45 to $47.25 — which puts a three-topping build at exactly the Traditional price. Half & Half Pizzas repeat the same twelve prices with one difference worth catching: the one-topping halves are cheaper than their Create Your Own equivalents at three of the four sizes, $12.25 against $12.89 at 8″ and $27.49 against $28.95 at 13″.

Sauces, poutine and the $8.99 shelf

Thirty-five items on this menu cost less than $5, and 21 of them are the Signature Sauces and Dressings section — Tzatziki, Honey Dill, Plum, Buffalo, Ranch and the rest, all $1.49 in the small size. That one section is most of the reason the sub-$5 count is as high as it is on a menu whose average item price is $25.96.

Poutine is treated as a family of dishes rather than a side. Original Poutine is $12.25, Homemade Meat Sauce $13.49, and Meatball, Pizza, Greek and Butter Chicken Poutine all $14.89. Greek Fries sit alongside at $12.89. The Children's Menu is the flattest section on the menu: all seven items — cheeseburger, chicken fingers, grilled cheese, poutine, spaghetti, small lasagna and a 6″ one-topping pizza — are $8.99.

Houston's Famous Lunch Entrees is a five-item section that lists the same dishes as the main Entrees section at identical prices: Greek Souvlaki and Boneless Dry Ribs at $18.99, Chicken Fingers at $17.99, Broiled Boneless Chicken Breast at $19.99, Chicken Breast Stuffed with Feta at $21.99. Burgers top out at $17.99 for the Double Down Cheeseburger and the Bacon Mushroom Mozza.

Do prices vary across Canada?

Houston Pizza operates in Saskatchewan, so the numbers on this page describe one provincial market rather than a national average, and individual restaurants can differ from one another. Catering trays in particular are usually quoted on order and may be adjusted for delivery, setup or seasonal ingredient cost — treat the tray prices as the published starting point. Sales tax is added afterwards.
