Who doesn’t like a good slice of pizza? It’s cheesy, greasy, salty, meaty, saucy, and full of delicious toppings. The best part about pizza is that you can make it as simple or complicated as you like — because everything goes with pizza. This is why we’re tracking down the best pizza in local Dallas restaurants near our The Place at Saddle Creek and Harvestree properties.
Cane Rosso
Where: 1301 South Broadway Street, Carrollton, Texas 75006
Distance From The Place at Saddle Creek: 4.2 miles
What: If you’re looking for a fresh, real Italian pizza, then you have to visit one of Cane Rosso’s five locations in the DFW area. Run by a former corporate executive, owner Jerrier has changed his ways to provide Dallas foodies with the best Neopolitan (don’t even dare compare it to New York-style), thin-crust pizza. They make their dough with Italian flour every day, crush San Marzano tomatoes for the sauce, and pull apart fresh mozzarella to cover your pizza. These pies are meant to eat with a knife and fork, so you can enjoy every bite.
Carmine’s Pizzeria
Where: 5365 Spring Valley Road #138, Dallas, Texas 75254
Distance From The Place at Saddle Creek: 4.2 miles
What: Now this is New York-style pizza. It’s made on thin crust, and you have the option to add cheese, up to four toppings, or the works on any pizza pie. If not everyone in your group is feeling like pizza that night (I know, it’s crazy to even think about), you also have the choice of ordering pasta, hot and cold sub sandwiches, and salads.
Fireside Pies
Where: 5717 Legacy Drive #110, Plano, Texas 75024
Distance From The Place at Harvestree: 5.5 miles
What: Apartment living is all about convenience and comfort — and sometimes that means not having to cook dinner. Instead of going out and being surrounded by people, order pizza to your Dallas apartment from the tasty Fireside Pies restaurant. You can get all of your favorite types of pizzas (pepperoni, sausage, meatball, prosciutto, etc.) delivered right to your door if you don’t feel like going out.
Campisi’s Restaurant
Where: 8100 Dallas Parkway, Plano, Texas 75024
Distance From The Place at Saddle Creek: 6.7 miles
What: With decades of practice (open since 1946), Campisi’s has become a pizza staple in the Lone Star State. They claim that they were founded on the idea of handshakes and hellos, and they serve family-style meals, so you can count on friendly and delicious service. Whether you want a veggie pizza or a meat supreme, your tastebuds will be thanking you for this yummy treat.
