I'm from Los Angeles so campisi's is always my first stop off the plane when I come in. Honestly, what makes the pizza so special is the crust. I can't find any other pizza that compares to it.

Mason Wristen

I've been eating here off and on for the last 50 years. Campisi's introduced the first pizza to the state of Texas (from NY) and got the first liquor license after prohibition. The food is excellent.

Dallas Observer

This storied, family-owned restaurant and its sibling establishments have been dishing out some of Dallas' favorite thin-crust pizza and Italian-American cuisine since 1946. Read more

This is an institution among hole-in-the-wall Italian places . It's like stepping in a time machine.

I'm an Italian gentleman & this is a fine Italian establishment. My only problem is that like zero Italians work here because I talked with my hands & they didn't understand what I was saying SMH.

Paige Cronin

Go here to put yourself in the original mafia's shoes and enjoy a delicious pizza .

Chop Salad was over priced and horrible. It was one piece of salami dice, half a head of iceberg lettuce and a quarter of a tomatoe for $10 bucks! WTF?! Don't order.
