In early April, J. Christopher’s Pizza-Pasta was sold to Steve and Gina Williamson, Steve confirmed May 16. The 42-year-old restaurant was formerly owned by Mike and Adriana Swift, and was founded in 1980 by John and Marcie Brennan.

The Williamsons are gathering customer feedback, though Steve said they do not plan on implementing many changes yet.

“We decided to purchase the restaurant because we liked the longevity and the history of it,” he said.

J. Christopher’s serves a variety of Italian dishes such as ravioli, spaghetti, pizzas and salads as well as burgers and sandwiches. The restaurant is located at 2245 Northpark Drive, Kingwood. 281-358-6601. www.jchristopherspizzapasta.com
