Olivella’s Neo Pizza Napoletana

Great little place in an area undergoing revitalization. Outside seating just across from a cute little park. Indoor had a good atmosphere and was relatively quiet. Nice little bar to boot. We were’re there in the day, but would probably be somewhat intimate for dinner. Staff were very professional and pleasant. Had salad with goat cheese, apple and cranberry and coconut balsamic dressing along with the Regina Margherita Pizza, both of which were fantastic. I would definitely make this a regular haunt.

Best meat and cheese plate I’ve had in a long time! We also got a huge pizza, which was delicious. Great food, good wine and a fun place to hang out near SMU.

For me, it’s a tie for best pizza in Dallas between this spot and Cane Rosso. How do they get the Napoletan base so perfect? It’s thin and delicious, yet not soggy in the middle so you can pick your slice up without the toppings falling off. Crunchy on the outside yet not overdone and burnt. Best pizza base by far. Toppings were delicious too. Staff were great and enjoyed sitting outside under the trees.
Will be back again and again…

Not a huge fan. Ordered the Dream pizza and it didn’t have a lot of flavor to it. Also ordered some sangria and it was more winey. We added some sweet and low and made it better. The service was good though.

Went here for lunch with a friend because we wanted to try some place new. Got there a little after 11 and had our choice of places to sit. As it got closer to noon the place really filled up. With as good as the food was it is easy to see why there was such a crowd. For us it came down to deciding between one of three pizzas. We decided on a chicken pesto margarita pizza on their very thin crust. It was absolutely amazing. Between the two of us we nearly finished the whole thing. We decided that we’ll definitely be back to try the other pizzas we wanted.

Staying at the Victory Hotel. Walked to this place because of good Unilocal!reviews. Did not disappoint. We got The Dream, Margherita with chicken and pesto, and chicken Alfredo. There were 5 of us (me the dad with 4 young women) and these pizzas were just enough. Got two smalls and one large. Great place!

This location gets 5 stars on ambiance – the open doors during a nice, warm day make for great dining! However, as I’m going through my pizza crawl across Dallas, I found that Olivella’s has a pretty solid margherita, but otherwise it can be a miss. The pizzas with more toppings seem to water down the entire pie, so I’d stick with simple, classic ingredients. I definitely do not recommend build your own… it just doesn’t come out the same way as a house specialty. I do like the thin crust though (let’s me eat more without feeling guilty!) 2 pizzas across 4 people is the perfect amount.

Hi team,
I am actually kind of sad to rate this only three stars but if it wasn’t for the mediocre service and the WORST side salad I have ever had, would have given it the full 5 stars because the pizza was delicious. I know I cannot really rate a pizza place for its salad but I can rate a restaurant for its menu. I paid $ 7 for their house salad and when it came out, it literally was a mound of spring mix and six (6) cherry tomatoes cut in half. Oh, and there was dressing. :-/​WTF. The server was obviously new and was quite nice but we were low on our drinks multiple times and he kept forgetting what we ordered and came back a few times to ask again. But… again, the pizza was he redeeming quality.

They claim to have the best pizza in Texas. While I haven’t tasted every pie in the state, they did not disappoint. The crust is like a flat bread, so it is not overly filling or greasy. They have great seating outside and extremely friendly staff. The lack of kids options just means they get to share the pizza. If your tot doesn’t like pizza, leave them at home. This restaurant belongs on everyone’s pizza bucket list.

I will never go back!!! I have a broken foot and I’m on a mobility scooter so recently I’ve been unable to get out much for dinner. I suggested to 2 neighbor friends that we meet downstairs at Neo since we live nearby. The manager refused to seat me, a handicap person who’s hobbling on a knee scooter with a cast on, until the other 2 people of my party arrive. He refused to listen to me explaining to him that we live upstairs and they’re in the elevator coming down because it’s «policy.» Meanwhile half the restaurant is empty… I don’t think mortifying and embarrassing handicap people is good «policy» or business practice. Call Domino’s instead!

Came here before stars game. Knew we would be up against it, and I know it must be hard for a place to deal with a big rush before events, but they handled it perfectly.
We were in and out and arrived at the AAC before the national anthem finished. So service 5 Stsrs .
We got to sit in the sun on the patio, so atmosphere gets 5 stars.
Beer selection was good, prices were fair, so 5 stars there.
Finally the pizza, we got the thin black truffles thing, but we modified the heck out of it. They got our order perfect and it was one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had.
My only gripe would be price, it cost us $ 30 for one pizza, but it wasn’t enough to drop my rating. 5 stars for food.
Can’t wait to go back …

Some of the best pizza that I have ever had! Everything is great from the food to the staff/​management to the décor and restaurant itself.
Let’s start with the food. We had a regular style Regina Margherita pizza, a metro style Black Truffle pizza, and a dessert pizza with Nutella spread on top that was like eating a smore.
The Margherita pizza was absolutely amazing. The crust was crispy and delicious. The sauce is probably the best pizza sauce that I have ever tasted, the cheese was flavorful but not overpowering and just melted in your mouth, and the basil was the perfect herb to blend with all the other flavors. It was easily big enough to feed two people.
The Black Truffle pizza felt like an upscale version of a classic. We asked for no ham since we are vegetarians but I bet the saltiness of the ham would have added a great additional quality layer of deliciousness. This pizza has no sauce, but you don’t miss it with the amazing truffle oil. This pizza not only tastes like heaven but also smells like heaven. This is a thin crust pizza that was cooked perfectly. The oil, cheese, mushrooms, and pepper all balanced each other perfectly and just made me smile when I took a bite. Was wonderful. This pizza will feed three people well.
The dessert pizza was a fun take on a smore. It had two thin crusts on the bottom with Nutella spread on the top. It was finished with a roasted marshmallow and a Granny Smith apple slice. Was very sweet and a nice finish to the meal. If you have kids order this for them.
The restaurant itself is very nice. Perfect place for a date, a night out, or just something different. They can open the side walls so that you can enjoy the weather and people watch. It’s slightly dim for a perfect date but not super dark so can have a fun outing with friends. It’s also very close to American Airlines center so it’s perfect place to grab a great pizza before a Mavs or Stars game.
The staff and management is very helpful and wants to make you happy. The server was very nice and took good care of us. The management is extremely attentive and wants every customer to be pleased and come back.
This is a great pizza place located right in the heart of Victory Park. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to some delicious pizza at possibly the best pizza restaurant in Dallas.

Good pizza, delicious! Also it is a good location for dinner before Mavericks game start. Highly Recommence!

I came with low expectations and was blown away by the service and food
Seating may be tough for large parties if you prefer to be seated indoors however there are a few tables outdoors than can fit roughly 12 people
My favorite pizzas were the della carne, black truffle, white truffle, the dream
The only pizza that I felt was lackluster was the chicken pesto
TIP: no automatic gratuity charge for large parties, yay!

Dang good! PERFECT pizza! Great atmosphere and wonderful service!
Had a Lakewood Temptress beer. Superb!
Had the san daniele pizza metro style (arugula, mozzarella, sauce, and prosciutto) Umm… amazing!
Service was fast and very ontop of things!
Can’t wait to return!
Perfect location for a pre event meal before heading to the American Airlines Center fir an event.

The last few times we have gone there the pizzas have looked lazy and messy. Still taste great, they just look thrown together. At least the pic I uploaded has basil, the last one literally had three or four leaves on the whole thing

Really stunned at the reviews for this place.
(1) Arancini was doughy, soft, and cold. Manager stated they don’t have a fryer to make them crispy… So why is this on the menu then? Also served with a mayo-​like sauce instead of the traditional tomato-​based sauce
(2) They kindly switched out the arancini for focaccia (and somehow brought it out after the pizza). Again, cold and soft. Focaccia is supposed to be crispy!
(3) Pizza was brought out completely wrong. Not only was the substitution done wrong on the first half of the Metro (apparently no mushrooms means extra mushrooms), but the second half was a completely different type of pizza than the spinach and bufalina we ordered.
Was completely disappointed and will not be back. Still in disbelief they would add the «new» arancini to the menu KNOWING they didn’t have a fryer in the kitchen. Blows my mind.

So good! Awesome pizza and quick service — it’s a great spot for lunch! I ordered the single size pizza — we got the Regina margherita and pancetta.
I’ll definitely come back — prices are fair too.

Neo has instantly become one of my favorite pizza places in town. I truly love the open-​air atmosphere of the establishment.
I stopped on a rainy Saturday and even though we had to sit inside, we still had that open-​air vibe which was great.
There were quite few people, but we were seated straightaway. The wait staff was friendly though they appeared to be a little under staffed with only two waitresses holding down the fort. Drink orders were taken and served pretty quick considering.
We ordered the Pancetta (sauce, mozzarella, pancetta, and sundried tomatoes) & San Daniele (lightly sauced, mozzarella, prosciutto, and arugula), both Metro style, which is a very thin crust.
Both were outstanding. The freshness of the ingredients was extremely noticeable. This is the way thin crust should be done, very crispy and as thin as possible. Loved it! The prosciutto was shaved paper thin, perfect! My only complaint was there could have been a little less arugula, but overall, it was still fantastic.
I saw several items on the menu that I’m looking forward to trying and hopefully on a sunny day.

First of all, the service here is STELLAR.
We ordered take-​out over the phone on the way home from the airport after a week away from Dallas. We were ready to swing by Olivella’s and take some pizza home to relax with after a long day of travel. It was our first time ordering from Olivella’s, so we didn’t understand that when you order a large size, you get a VERY thin crust (cracker thin, similar to the pizza they serve at Eno’s in the Bishop Arts District). This wasn’t the kind of pizza we were in the mood for, so when we arrived and saw what was there for us we asked if we could order the regular size instead (which it turns out is the most traditional Neapolitan pizza). Not only did the hostess have no problem with this, she said she would not charge us for the original pizza we ordered, AND she just let us take it for free since apparently they would just have thrown it out anyway! That was SO kind, we were overwhelmed. We will return here based on service alone.
The pizza we had was the Big Veggie, which was pretty darn good. Not the best pizza I’ve ever had, but delicious nonetheless. The Olivella salad we ordered was quite excellent, topped with pears, walnuts, Gorgonzola and balsamic vinaigrette. Come try Olivella’s, for some yummy pizza and truly fantastic customer service.

I wish the beer selection was a little better. I had to settle on a Shiner Bock, which is okay, but not as good as a Revolver Blood & Honey. Also this is no sports bar (unfortunately). They do have a couple of TVs in the back, but that’s pretty much it.
The food is delicious. I love Neo’s pizza! The «Metro» style is better than the regular. Its basically the same size but with thin crust.
I love the outdoor seating on warm days. It’s the only restaurant in Victory Park with outside tables. They have the on both sides of the restaurant (one faces Victory Ave and one faces Houston St.). They also have indoor seating that has an open window so you face outside.
The staff is very friendly and helpful. You just can’t beat this place if you want good pizza!
