The food here can be fine, but wildly inconsistent quality in execution has us wondering if the pizza will be memorable or inedible on our next visit.

Besa's Pizza & Pasta

Italian, Pizza, Best Of

From the street, this might look like the average strip-mall pizza parlor, but once inside things change. The tables are covered in earth-tone tablecloths that match the seat cushions. Obviously, some thought went into Besa's. That by itself distinguishes Besa's from most slice shops in town. The counter service is still there, as are the cheap price points. Lunch specials begin at $4.99 for one Neapolitan-style slice, a tossed salad and a drink. While the pizza, including the Sicilian, is popular, pastas such as the lobster ravioli get raves from regulars. Among the myriad of subs available, the Philly cheesesteak is a hot item. Customers in search of something more substantial can order one of the meat (chicken, veal or seafood) entrées.

Blackjack Pizza

Pizza, Restaurants, Menu

While this slice shop caters to the pizza-loving crowd, it also serves a mean cheeseburger, beloved by regulars for its girth and bubbling cheese. Its pizzas are whoppers as well. The specialties, like Jackpot (pepperoni, sausage, ham, ground beef, onions, mushrooms, green peppers, green and black olives and extra cheese), come large and in charge, preparing you for a food coma. Naturally, build-your-own pizzas are available. Among the options is a sauce choice, which includes traditional marinara and KC Masterpiece brand barbecue sauce. Unlike other chains, Blackjack gambles beyond putting burgers on the menu. One of the pizza toppings is anchovies. The high sugar-octane sweet tea and onion rings are also magnets to this outpost of a Colorado-based franchise chain founded by Vince Schmuhl in 1983.

Campisi's

5610 E. Mockingbird Lane Plano

214-827-0355

Italian, Pizza, Recommended, Best Of, Menu, Readers' Choice

This storied, family-owned (now into its fourth generation) restaurant and its sibling establishments have been dishing out some of Dallas' favorite thin-crust pizza and Italian-American cuisine since 1946. Eating here is like dining with history. (The strip mall in which the original restaurant sits seems like a relic itself in stark contrast to the stylish Mockingbird Station development within spitting distance.) The night before Jack Ruby, a Campisi's regular, killed Lee Harvey Oswald, he dined at the darkly lit Campisi's on Mockingbird Lane. Legendary American League umpire Steve Palermo was shot while attempting to stop a mugging outside the same location. If local lore isn't your thing, the snappy pizza or one of the house specialties, such as the "Original" shrimp scampi, or the customizable pasta options, might be. The Campisis also offers catering. One of the packages is named after Jack Ruby. http://www.dallasobserver.com/best-of/2011/food-and-drink/best-italian-restaurant-6463140

Carmine's Pizzeria

5365 Spring Valley Rd. North Dallas

972-404-8110

Pizza, Italian, Best Of

First things first: This Carmine's is not affiliated with the other similarly named establishments in town, something regulars are quick to point out. Loyalty runs deep here and offense is taken at anything that might besmirch the 30-plus year history of this North Dallas stalwart. Carmine's specializes in New York City-style pizza, and the classic pepperoni is the clear favorite. The three-cheese calzone (ricotta, mozzarella and parmesan) is also popular. For good measure, several noodle dishes are available for those interested in something more substantial than a slice of pizza. Carmine's success might be built on the backs of local office and retail workers, but the restaurant staff points out that regulars who have long since moved from town return for a hot slice when visiting Dallas.

Cenzo's Pizza & Deli

1700 W 10th St. West Dallas

972-773-9234

Pizza, Deli, Best Of, Essentials

In a converted gas station at the corner of Tenth and Jefferson in Oak Cliff’s Winnetka Heights neighborhood, Cenzo’s has quickly woven itself into the fabric of the neighborhood. Co-owners Chad Dolezal and Vinnie Sherman live nearby and wanted to open a restaurant they could bring their families to, and the neighbors have followed suit. They come for brilliant pizzas from chef Jason Smith, as well as hot and cold sandwiches like the classic “Italian Deli” or the “Fancy Fried Bologna” that are jammed full of flavor. The beer taps pour out local suds alongside wines by the glass, and a spacious patio is bustling when the weather abides. Best of all, Dolezal sees to it that his staff are well paid and cared for, which pays off in spades for employees and customers alike.

Top Pick: Midweek visits are the best time to stop in. Tuesday features an all-day happy hour, Wednesday’s theme is the ability to get any pie as a deep dish, and Thursday's special is a killer chicken parm sub.

Coal Vines

Italian, Pizza, Critics' Pick, Best Of

So cliché, with that portrait of a young Frank Sinatra hung beside the bar, his face gazing upward. You might wonder if the moon's in his eyes, though that's another artist who's equally as shopworn in New York Style Pizza joints. And that cheesy tune is playing too, ting-a-ling-a-ling -- it's almost a parody. But then you look around the room at Coal Vines, and all is forgiven. Maybe it's that gorilla of a bartender who places your napkins just like so, and always tops off your wine before it empties. Or the Dominic Chianese look-alike who greets you at the door, makes sure you have a seat and slowly grazes on a salad from behind large glasses after things get slow. It's much more likely the pizza, fired by coal, just as the name of the restaurant suggests, which offers a passable attempt at recreating the style of pie served on every single corner and in every borough of New York City. A Northerner could sit here, eyes closed, with a folded slice in his hand and pretend they are back home.

This strip-mall slice shop sells whole pizza pies that are bigger than your average pie on the cheap -- under-10-bucks cheap. A small pizza here is about the size of other pizza joint's medium offerings, while the medium is really a large. And the large? Well, when that moon of a pie hits your eye, you'll be struggling to put down more than two slices (the equivalent of four slices). This New York-style pizzeria is probably more popular because of the size of its fare than anything else, but loyal customers would beg to differ. For them, the quantity and quality of the pizza are equal.

Chicago meets New York City with steak frites au poivre: a 10-oz. USDA prime New York strip coated with coarsely cracked peppercorns in a classic au poivre sauce inspired by the legendary dish made famous by Raoul’s in New York City.

While it bills itself as a neighborhood joint, Fireside Pies is still a chain, albeit a local one. It slings out crusty, pecan-wood-fired oven pizzas, like the fresh mozzarella (market tomatoes, hand-torn basil and balsamic vinegar) and the spicy Italian sausage with scamorza and roasted red onions. The rustic method of making pies is echoed by the cedar and copper design elements. Fireside negotiates a fine line between importing goods from Italy and using local ingredients. Among the latter are the mozzarella and scamorza from Paula Lambert's Mozzarella Company as well as Jimmy's sausage from Jimmy's Italian Food Store in Old East Dallas. Customers here rave about the pizza while supporting hometown business.

Greenville Avenue Pizza Company

Pizza, Recommended, Best Of, Readers' Choice

Pizza shouldn't be crushed under the weight of a farm field of ingredients. That's the guiding principle at Sammy Mandell and Chris Cook's pizzeria, though customers have the option to weigh down pies with everything from grilled shrimp to zucchini. If you don't have enough room in your gut for a The Mes-Kin, with sour cream, cilantro and poblano chile y mas, order by the (giant) slice or give the orange chipotle wings a whirl. The pizzeria's meatball sub has garnered praise in the pages of the Dallas Observer, being christened as the best sandwich of 2008. The pizza joint is best known, however, as a late-night destination. The lines can seem infinite after the bars and clubs closed down, but that doesn't prevent revelers from flocking to the place.

A sister restaurant to the famed Grimaldi's under the Brooklyn Bridge in the DUMBO neighborhood, for whose products devotees wait hours for a pie, this shop serves Neapolitan-style pizzas from a coal-fired brick oven. Take your pick from 12-, 16- or 18-inch pizza pies topped with anything from anchovies and jalapeño to Kalamata olives and fresh garlic. It's got 100 years of history and tradition behind it. So it's no wonder the pies at Grimaldi's are considered must-haves in Dallas. Any place that's been complimented by Frank Sinatra and Rudy Guiliani has got to be good, right?

Hot Pizza

17194 Preston Rd. North Dallas

469-399-1461

Indian, Pizza

Hot Pizza Dallas opened in Dallas in early 2021, infusing Indian flavors into the world of Italian pizza. Even though it's a curious combination, it's surprisingly good. Since opening, the small spot has gained quite a large fan base of pizza lovers, Indian food enthusiasts and just plain curious foodies. The menu at this low-key pizza spot in Preston Trail Village along Preston Road has an almost daunting number of options. There are 37 different varieties, to be exact. Menu items are separated into sections for vegetarian, paneer (Indian cottage cheese) and chicken pizzas. Pizzas come in 10-inch, 12-inch and 14-inch portions. The large easily feeds three to four people and seems like the best value. Just make some space in the refrigerator for leftovers the next day. For sides, order a box of cheesy Achari Bread, a crispy garlic bread that comes with a powdered Indian pickle (achari) on top. The portion size is on the smaller side but still packs rich flavors of the Indian subcontinent. The Smacking Pesto Bread is made with a similar bread but comes with a spread of pesto and onions, sauteed Indian style.
