While visiting Dallas again, my host “with the penciled mustache” insisted we try a new pizza place, since I didn’t find Campagnia and Coal Vine to be worthy of “the best” title. This time around he took me to Fireside Pies just outside Southlake, in Grapevine. The place was empty, which made me nervous, but we decided to stay and try it out anyways.
Fireside Pies smelled great inside, and my eyes were drawn to the wood burning oven on display behind the rather large bar. Although the place is dimly lit, the lights they do have shine directly over the table top, so you are able to see pretty well. It is kind of deceiving actually, since I thought they had almost no light in the place. The booths were comfortable and inviting, and they even boast a beautiful outside dining area for the 3 months a year the weather permits their patrons to enjoy it.
