Good deep dish pie in Dallas area?

Clarify your statement, sir. There are various styles of ovens used in NY. And the same goes for here. There are two main types that are most common up there. Deck ovens, and the "brick oven" type. Both of which are in many restaurants down here. I represent a deck oven manufacturer, and a "brick oven" style manufacturer, who is the leading mfr in the US.

I like coal fired ovens, and not really brick ovens. In Dallas, it may not be coal fired, but Scalini's in Lakewood has excellent thin crust.

There are several coal fired around Dallas. Coal fired is still a "brick style" oven, just uses solid fuel for heat instead of gas.

For the record, there is such a small difference in taste between coal fired, and a brick oven, most people can't tell the difference. The coal fired thing is more marketing than anything. The smell, the ambience it sets. I guarantee you though, I could cook a coal fired and a brick oven pizza, and you wouldn't be able to tell which is which. The taste of the crust comes from the seasoning of the stone, not the coal.

Their pizza is way better than their website. I know you said Dallas county but I have yet to find anywhere in DFW that makes Chicago deep style with the thick sauce on top.

x2. i'm a fan of this place. very similar to gino's east style of chicago deep.
i cant comment on the toppings, i typically order cheese.
