coltivare is owned by to the same people as the revival market, thatamazingplace where i found the best cappuccino in houston and it's located also in the heights area. from the minute my husband and i arrived, we loved its casual and not pretentious feeling. but since they don't accept reservations, be prepared for a very, very long wait for your table and preferably go in small groups, i'd recommend no more than four to get it faster.
the good news is that the wait can result very pleasant thanks to the fact that you can enjoy your favorite drink at the bar or at the terrace. the bar is fully stocked and there’s even a sommelier that can talk to you about the vast variety of italian wines they have and even suggest the perfect pairing for your food.
once seated at the table and with our menus in hand, we ordered the "revival" pepperoni pizza and the only word i have to describe it, is -perfect- there's nothing else to say, one of the best i've eaten. we also tried their whole wood-roasted fish and it was also amazing. in their menu, they also have several salads, pastas and some luscious deserts.
