If you haven’t heard of Olivella’s Pizza and Wine, well, it’s time to get familiar. And you can do that as many before you have: simply by searching on “best pizza” or “pizza near me.” Because we’re all about bringing authentic Neapolitan pizza and Roman pizza to the Lakewood community, and let’s just say it’s been a hit.
Not only has Dallas Observer named us the Best Pizza in Dallas (yes, we’re blushing), but Paper City Magazine also gave us a shout-out as one of the best pizza places in town. You can check out our claim to fame on Dallas Observer here and Paper City Magazine here.
So grab a pie, and let’s dive into what makes Olivella’s the best Neapolitan Lakewood pizza around!
Wondering what makes Neapolitan pizza so special? This style of thin pizza originated in Naples, Italy (hence the name), where it was whipped up for busy folks who wanted something quick, delicious, and cheap. They took flatbread, topped it with fresh tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil, threw it in a scorching hot wood-fired oven, and voila—the original pizza was born.
As one of the oldest pizza families from Naples, Italy, we’ve been serving up Neapolitan pizza since the very beginning and one day decided to bring it across the pond to Lakewood. At Olivella’s Pizza and Wine, we stick to our traditional roots. Our pizzas are baked in a wood-fired oven at around 800°F, so they cook in high heat but we don’t put a deadline on when to pull the pizzas out of the oven. We let the pizzas tell us when they’re ready. The result? A perfectly charred crust that’s soft, chewy, and downright addictive. And let’s talk about the ingredients: we use tomatoes grown in the nutrient-rich soil of the Nocerino region of southern Italy (where Mt. Vesuvius is), plus fresh house mozzarella that melts beautifully.
Our goal every day is to bring that same authentic Neapolitan taste to Lakewood—no plane ticket required.
When you’re on the hunt for the best Neapolitan pizza in Lakewood, we know there are a lot of options. But at Olivella’s Pizza and Wine, we’ve got a few tricks up our sleeve that keep the locals coming back.
Every pizza starts with fresh dough that’s made daily, left to ferment, and then baked to perfection. Our tomatoes are the real MVP of our sauce, and we add just enough to let the flavors shine. It’s simple, classic, and downright delicious.
When you walk into Olivella’s Pizza and Wine, you’re part of the family. We’ve created a cozy space where you can sit back, relax, and enjoy your pizza the way it was meant to be enjoyed—preferably with a glass of wine in hand. We’ve got that friendly, neighborhood vibe that makes every meal feel special. Hospitality and your satisfaction (other than our incredible food) are the only reasons we exist.
While our Neapolitan pizzas and Roman pizzas are the stars of the show, we’ve got a whole menu full of authentic southern Italian dishes. Think fresh salads, pastas with every stripe of delicious sauce varieties, panini on house-made bread, and appetizers that are perfect for sharing (or not, we don’t judge). Oh, and did we mention our dessert pizza? It’s topped with Nutella. Enough said.
When you come to Olivella’s Pizza and Wine, you’re not just here for pizza. You’re here for the full Italian experience. From the moment you walk in, you’ll notice the aroma of freshly baked dough and simmering tomato sauce. It’s like taking a mini-vacation to Italy, minus the jet lag. And when you look around at the old-world furnishings and design, it won’t take long for you to feel like you’ve been transported to southern Italy.
Our Lakewood location is where locals come to unwind, whether it’s a casual date night, a family dinner, or just because it’s Tuesday and pizza sounds good. (Spoiler alert: pizza always sounds good.) We’ve also got our sommelier-curated wine selection that pairs perfectly with our menu, so go ahead and treat yourself to a glass or two. After all, what’s pizza without wine?
