Neapolitian pizza restaurants seem to be trending in the DFW area. It has become a pretty common occurrence to see a new Neapolitan pizza restaurant opening somewhere in the Metroplex. Pizzeria Testa opened up last year in Frisco and has been getting some very good press lately. Although the restaurant has been open for over a year, I had not tried it until just a couple of weeks ago when I met my wife there for lunch.

Pizzeria Testa has lunch specials where you can get a salad and a personal pizza for under $10. My wife ordered the special and got a Margherita pizza with a house salad. The personal pizza was larger than what she anticipated, so she gave me a slice as well. We both liked the taste of the Margherita pizza and she enjoyed the salad as well.

For my meal, I decided to forgo the lunch special because I wanted to try a pizza that was not an option on the specials. I ordered the Affumicata pizza, which had smoked Mozzarella and Speck. Smoked cheeses are an Achilles heal for me and this pizza lived up to my expectations. The Mozzarella had a great smoky flavor and the large pieces of Speck covered each slice. This pizza was absolutely perfect and tasted just as I had hoped.

Even after eating an entire pizza by myself, I still wanted dessert. My wife and I ordered the Tiramisu and loved every bite. This classic item is one of our favorite desserts to order at Italian or pizza joints, but the Tiramisu at Pizzeria Testa is simply outstanding. It had a perfect texture, outstanding flavor, and looked as good as it tasted. I can't think of any Tiramisu that was better than what we had at Pizzeria Testa

I feel that Pizzeria Testa deserves the praise that it has received. Their pizza ovens combined with fresh ingredients really turn out some excellent Neapolitan pizza. The service was commendable on this visit and the dining room was very comfortable. This restaurant would be a great place to go on a romantic date or a fun place to dine with a group of friends.
