The Flying Saucer Reviews

This is the only one in Houston. The best place for pies. On holidays be there a hour and a half earlier.

We bought 2 pies. The key lime was fine. The custard pie was so undercooked much of the crust was raw. It was completely inedible.

Delicious pies! Been coming here for years and never been disappointed.

Pies for days. You haven t had a legit pie if you haven t tried them out.

Do we really need a review for Flying Saucer? That banana pie is Yumlicious.

Best pies in Houston. Pies taste like grandma's pies.

Pies are good but not for the price. If im going to pay that much for a apple pie, I rather buy it at Treebeards.

I love this place. Amazing pie and amazing service.

Whole ripe, succulent strawberries... Topped with pillowy light whipped cream with just a hint of sweetness... Encased in a flaky, buttery crust. I had never heard of strawberry cream pie until my cravings lead me to the Flying Saucer Pie Company. A friend and I trekked down to the pie shop to find it sitting in not such a great area, looking not much like a pie shop I would want to eat in. This happens to not be a problem because there are no tables, therefore you have to order your pie and take it with you anyway. As we entered, I found a plethora of homemade pies staring me in the face. After squealing and doing a little dance I proceeded to order 4 slices: strawberry cream, keylime, apple, and pecan, each at 2.50 a slice The strawberry cream pie made my eyes roll to the back of my head... I love that they use whole strawberries and, unlike many other pies, the fruit filling does go everywhere. Their pies are as they should be, all one entity, not a bunch of pieces that fall apart.

My only complaint is that I could tell they used normal lime in their keylime. Keylime should have a slight bitterness and it was a bit too sweet. Their pecan and apple pies were also a tad too sweet for me but I'm not huge on a lot of sugar in my dessert anyway. Otherwise, the crust is to die for and you can really taste the love in it (it's that taste that comes after the butter).

The worst pie I ve ever had. The lemon meringue is some sort of yellow congealed canned mass under some fake whipped topping stuff that never melts.

Don't get caught up and not order in advance for holidays you're gonna hate yourself if "SOLD OUT "! They are Super.

I grew up in the neighborhood eating Flying Saucer Pies, my wife and I brought the grandchildren to get several pies for Thanksgiving, I recommend everyone coming in trying it one time we come every year

Awesome pies great prices and good halal vegan choices

This time they didn't have pumpkin pie by the slide. The pies are ok.

Awesome! I bought a pecan pie and a slice of custard pie.

Never had liked pie since i was 4 years old and i will only eat pie at this place *best pie of my life*

Best Pies hands down in Houston Tx. Go experience the deliciousness for yourself. My personal favorite is the Lemon Cream.

Been eating their pies for over 20 years, best pies in Houston

I know EVERYONE is mad for their pies..and they will do in a pinch but they are not as good as I remember. Maybe because it was during a holiday rush, because I have never had them during the holidays but I prefer to make from scratch.

Growing up in Houston, I regret not going to this iconic place sooner. I had a slice of the coconut cream pie. Next time I'm getting a whole one. It was a treat for being out in the miserably cold and rainy weather today.

The pies are really good they are soft and very tasty

Great pies. Try and show some restraint. They are that good.

I have been eating these pies since the almost presence of being a baby. These pies will make you go get a slice or two( strawberry cream). And then take one or two pies home. This cake almost hands down. Beats a foodgasm. If you catch my drift...Chef Ross Phillips ... Augusta Pines CC.

The pies are ALWAYS delicious and worth the wait!! Make sure to check their website around the holidays for the hours. Check out the FAQs so you know when to buy your pies and how long they'll last. They're very friendly and helpful- both in person and on the phone!

They simply make tasty pies; especially I like their fruit pies.

Extremely fast service. Pies are out of this world.

I love this place bc the pies are out of this world. The only food that I am willing to stand in line for!

I have never bought pie from this place. A Very year during Thanksgiving, I watched as people line up around the block trying to buy some pie. I finally went there and bought a few pies. I bought the pecan pie and the strawberry pie. Definitely I love the strawberry pie. I wished the pie is a little larger. Definitely recommended if you has bought pie from this place.

I went here because the place was came highly recommended however I was very disappointed in the quality of Pies they serve I think Kroger Signature pies are hands down better. I ordered a pecan pie it was lacking in pecans in my opinion and after half a slice I gave the rest away.

A Houston cultural institution. Nuff said. Pecan, Coconut Cream, and when in season the Peach Cream are top shelf pies!

The cakes are very good here, there is a great variety of fruit and seed cakes. When choosing a good place, I highly recommend it!

Not as welcoming as i thought. Your basic freezer as it looks like. Just pick-up didnt see any tables or seats.

Delicious pies. I am so glad I live far enough away that I cannot buy it often or I would be as big as a house.

Great pies anytime. Enjoy buying them by the slice too.

Man, I tell you what I tell you what, that coconut cream pie is awesome.

Omg who ever is thinking of going pls do yourself that favor !lord knows you wont regret it #staples

I bought the chocolate cream pie and a slice of their season peach cream pie! The slice was delicious, love the peaches- great for the summer! Wasn't able to take pictures, all gone before I realized I didn't document the deliciousness

Wonderful, absolutely delicious pies, I shared with ALL MY fellow friends and workers

Strawberry is the best so if you are ever around that area i suggest you stop and try a slice or buy the whole thing it's worth what you spend.

I love the pie so much that my buddies call me Peter Peter pumpkin eater

Amazing pies still haven't had anything that compares, still friendly even through the crowds.

Went here for the first time. I bought a Strawberry Cheesecake. It was so yummy. Will definitely come back.

Based on my previous experience and been going there for years and years never been disappointed always some great pies you haven't been every got to trial the House of Pies Flying Saucer

This place does not make the news every year for nothing.. I hate chocolate pie but can't put theirs down..quality awesome service good.can't go wrong here.

Today is National Pie day so I decided to treat my associates some pie. Since The Flying Saucer is not far from our business I decided to go. The pie is good but the customer service is not worth it. I purchased roughly $200.00 (13 pies) worth. Once the attendant received payment, all I got was "Thank you, have a great day....we have no bags." She did not offer to help with taking them to my vehicle. A customer that was 3rd in line decided step out to hold the door while I made several returns as to not damage the pies.

Next time, I would rather make the trip to the Galleria area to House of Pies since customer service is what I return for.

The pies are delicious... banana pie,pecan pie and apple pie are very tasty and well balanced! Definitely going back

Whenever I see one of these iconic white boxes, I know I am in for a treat! The pies that come out of this little bakery are really good! My favorites are pecan, key lime, and peach. You will clearly not be disappointed with whatever you get. I do stay away from this place during holiday season as the line is out the door and around the block! (a slight exaggeration, but you get the point.

All their pies are good but I especially like the fresh peach which is only made during the month of July. I must have every year
