What we reported Owners of Vero Italian Kitchen opened a new location Jan. 13, 2016, at 13621 Skinner Road, Cypress. After launching in Conroe in 2010 and Spring in 2015, this marked the company’s third location. The eatery’s menu includes made-from-scratch specialty pizzas, pastas, salads and desserts with many ingredients imported from Italy.

Vero Italian KitchenThe latest Cypress owner Jon Felicia has worked to spread Vero’s name, which means “true” or “real” in Italian, across town. The location near Hwy. 290 has helped increase exposure by word of mouth.

What’s next Felicia wants to slowly grow his customer base in Cypress and master the concept locally before expanding to a new location. Eventually, he wants to expand to Katy or The Woodlands, he said.
