Stretch the boundaries around pizza at this Plano joint. Sure, you could order the standard cheese, veggie, or pepperoni here but why? It offers cool, inventive options like the Korean BBQ topped with beef or chicken, Korean barbecue sauce, and green onions; the Naga Habanero Chicken; and the the harissa chicken. That beef taco pie with salsa verde ranch swirls is calling our name.

Fortunate Son
The crispy, fire-roasted thin crust of New Haven-style pizza is a first for the Metroplex. Its worth a trip up there for that alone, but go a little crazy and try one of the pies with toppings that strike you as left of center. Those are generally the home runs here.

Pizzana Dallas
Los Angelinos have been enjoying the pizza partnership between Candace Nelson of Sprinkles cupcakes and chef Daniele Uditi for awhile, and when they brought their ovens to Big D and opened their first shop outside of Cali on Knox Street, Dallasites got the chance to indulge in those fancy pies. The pizza quickly ran up our list of the city’s best, both for the crust that is fermented for 48-hours and for the inventive, fresh toppings.

Thunderbird Pies
From the minds behind Cane Rosso and Zoli’s comes Thunderbird Pizza. It serves Detroit-style pies, which feature Wisconsin brick cheese layered edge-to-edge on the buttery, crispy, chewy crust. This spot has come down firmly in the pro-pineapple on pizza category, so try the Island Boi if that’s your jam. It’s also got Canadian bacon, red onions, jalapeno, bacon, and habanero honey.

Poco Fiasco
This martini and pizza spot in the Harwood District is heavy on creativity. It is the spot for toppings and a cocktail that are a little out of the ordinary and, dare we say, fancy. The atmosphere is reminiscent of a Brooklyn-style pizzeria, and there are screens to watch whatever game is on.

Pie Tap Pizza Workshop + Bar
After letting it’s dough rise and rest for 96 hours, this place serves up some of the best pizza crust in town. It’s crispy yet soft, and comes with “pizza bones” dipping sauces which are a must to savor every bite. Highly recommend heading there for brunch and getting the breakfast pizza. This is also a great spot for kids.

Wriggly Tin
This cute spot with QR code ordering and no tipping added offers some damn fine pizza. There aren’t a ton of choices, but they ones it has are done right. It’s also got an expansive patio for sitting around with wine, batch cocktails, or beers. Kids and dogs are welcome.

Partenope Ristorante
When an award-winning pizzaiolo opens a restaurant, it’s worth paying attention. The interiors of Partenope are beautiful, but the handmade Neapolitan oven that owner Dino Santonicola had decorated with Italian tiles is stunning. Try the Montenara, a flash-fried-then-baked pizza crust topped with mozzarella, tomato sauce, and basil. Now Partenope has a second location in Richardson.

Eno’s Pizza Tavern in Oak Cliff is a must for thin-crust enthusiasts. Meat lovers go for the Pig Smiley, topped with Benton’s country ham, local honey, and Eno’s spicy sausage.

Cenzo’s Pizza & Deli
For a family-friendly pizza spot, the thin-crust pies here will do you. Former Austin chef and native Dallasite Chad Dolezal opened this spot with the dream of having his own restaurant and slinging good pies. The menu is tight and focuses on classics with quality ingredients. It offers a solid beer and wine list, and a lunch special of a slice with a salad for $8.
