Alright, Fort Worth, let’s talk about pizza. Not just any pizza, though—we’re talking about Neapolitan pizza. That’s right, the pizza that made Naples famous, with its crispy-yet-chewy crust, perfectly simple sauce, and fresh mozzarella. And you don’t have to go to Italy to find it, either. Just search “pizza near me” and head over to Olivella’s Pizza and Wine, where we’re serving up authentic Neapolitan pizzas that’ll have you saying, “Ciao, other pizza places!”

At Olivella’s Pizza and Wine, we’re all about bringing a little slice of Naples to Fort Worth. Which is easy for us, because we started in Naples, Italy. Yes, indeed, our family opened the third pizza restaurant in Naples, Italy. When we finally made it to the new world, landing in Texas, we were immediately recognized by the Dallas Observer as the Best Pizza in Dallas. Soon after Paper City Magazine, Culture Map, D Magazine, Eater, Dallas Morning News, and Star-Telegram all raved and ranked us a best pizza choice. You can read more here and here). A few years ago we brought our Neapolitan pizza and Roman pizza to Fort Worth, and guess what? The Star-Telegram picked us Best Pizza in Fort Worth.

What’s the Deal with Neapolitan Pizza?

If you’re not familiar with Neapolitan pizza, suffice it to say, it’s the OG of pizzas, dating back more than a century in Naples, Italy. Back then, folks needed something cheap, fast, and tasty (sound familiar?), and Neapolitan pizza was the answer. It’s all about keeping things simple: just a few fresh ingredients, a super-hot oven, fresh, vibrant tomatoes, fresh house mozzarella, a little basil and boom—pizza perfection.

Here at Olivella’s Pizza and Wine, we’re proud to keep this tradition alive. We use the same authentic techniques that have been passed down through generations in our family. We don’t flash cook our pizzas in 90 seconds. We do it the real, authentic, old-fashioned way. We let the pizzas tell us when they’re done. Not vice versa. The result is a chewy but fully cooked crust. Nothing soggy here.

And let’s talk about those ingredients. Tomatoes from the Nocerino region of Italy (the kind grown in volcanic soil near Mount Vesuvius), fresh mozzarella, a drizzle of olive oil, and garden-picked basil. It doesn’t get more classic—or more delicious—than that.

Why Fort Worth Loves Olivella’s Pizza and Wine

When it comes to Neapolitan pizza, Fort Worth has spoken: Olivella’s is where it’s at. So what sets us apart from the other pizza places around here? Let’s break it down:

1. The Dough

We take our dough seriously. It’s made fresh every day and given plenty of time to ferment, which makes it light, airy, and full of flavor. And because it’s tended by highly-trained and skilled pizza-makers, it’s stretched and cooked to perfection.

2. The Sauce

Our sauce is made with tomatoes straight from Italy. These tomatoes are naturally sweet and low in acidity, which makes them the perfect base for our sauce. We keep it simple, letting the tomatoes do the talking.

3. The Toppings

Sure, we’ve got classic Margherita, but we also have a few tricks up our sleeve. From fresh basil and arugula to prosciutto and truffle oil, our toppings are fresh, flavorful, and anything but boring.

When you’re looking for the best Neapolitan pizza restaurant in Fort Worth, you know Olivella’s is the place to go.

More Than Just Neapolitan Pizza and More Than Just Roman Pizza

At Olivella’s Pizza and Wine, we believe variety is the spice of life, so we’re not just a one-trick pizza pony. Our Roman pizza may be even more popular than our Neapolitan pizza. Why? Well, our Neapolitan pizza is thin pizza. But our Roman pizza is super thin pizza. And that’s just the beginning of our Italian food menu. Authentic Italian food abounds at Olivella’s Pizza and Wine from fresh flavorful Italian salads, to an extensive pasta menu, hearty panini on housemade bread, and mouth-watering appetizers like our Pepperoni Roll and Mama’s Meatballs with House Mozzarella that are perfect for sharing (or not—no judgment here). And let’s not forget about our sommelier-curated wine selection. Our wines have been selected both to bring value at every price point and pair perfectly with our pizzas and pastas (even our tiramisu!). So go ahead and treat yourself to a bottle. After all, what’s pizza without wine?
