This pizza is a 10 out of 10. Thin crust. Great toppings. House salad is my favorite!!! Service is nice. Lunch prices are really great. read more

My husband and I went here on a Saturday evening and really enjoyed it. It was a great neighborhood vibe and a decent sized restaurant good for a date but would also consider going with a group of friends. We ordered a pasta and the hot honey pizza. Both were delicious and I felt a very fair amount of food for the price. The real surprise is the house wines for $7 a glass and then you could also do BYOB for only a $10 corkage fee- which in Dallas that seems amazing to me! I would definitely come back and if you're in the neighborhood I'd say it's worth checking out! read more

The service was good. The place is a lot more spacious than it looks from the outside. I enjoyed the lunch special & added a side salad. I feel like the sauce could have had more flavor, but overall I was pleased read more

I came here on 11.06.24 with some work buddies on their recommendations for pizza. The vibe is updated old school, and the service was top-notch right out of the gate. I opted for the small pizza (12-inch) that I custom ordered (see picture) with a side salad starter. The salad was delicious and generously dressed with their house dressing, which was like a Greek vinaigrette. My pizza was epic. It came out directly on a tray, which was pretty cool. Despite the real estate it covered, it had a super thin crust, so I didn't feel TOO guilty about destroying it. The sauce was tasty and balanced perfectly with the cheese. My pie was so heavily topped that it presented a challenge in eating it. The toppings were fresh and delicious, and I love a place that isn't stingy with their olives. For the total experience, I would come back. Maybe a lunch portion pizza would be better next time, but for my maiden voyage here, I left very happy. read more

Scalini's has good service. Their food is consistent and have tried many entrees on their menu. The complaint I have is they use too much salt. For example, the Chicken Marsala sauce is so salty I had to remove the sauce off the chicken. The chicken itself was very good. I don't know why restaurants have to use so much salt. read more

Always delicious. They make you feel like you are part of the family. If they are crowded, it's well worth the wait!!

This is a great, well priced, casual Italian local spot. Dinner is very affordable and comes with a salad and garlic bread while offering a very wide selection of classic dishes. Can't beat $5-$6 for beer and wine. We can walk here and definitely have made this a regular go to option! Everyone that works here is super friendly and accommodating - I don't have anything negative to say about Scalini's! read more

Order pizzas for a crowd. Delivered with care. The pizza was great. Would use them again for hot pizza delivery.

Spicy chicken scalopinne is great, I love this local place. Staff is very nice too. The portions are big also.

absolutely disgusting, bread harder than a brick, once you get past pulverizing your teeth all you get is freezer burnt flavor, trio combo was a clumsy unseasoned mess , had to tilt my plate over to remove the swamp of water to even attempt to eat, salad very sour, best thing about this place was how empty it is but I see why it's empty now, this place has officially died along with the staff read more

Back today for lunch with family - all dishes GREAT and large serving - pesto chicken pasta absolutely to die for - so rich and creamy. Second dish was meat sauce and spaghetti - my husband says one of the best red sauces he's had - personal FAV. Table bread was warm and fresh along with house salads. Appetizer - Arancini balls with mushrooms - you could see the mushrooms and served warm dipping sauce. Also a good value, the wait staff very attentive and service was very good. Easy - parking out front to dash in if limited on time at lunch. read more

This place is a hidden GEM!!!! The food is so good and the prices are even better! We were immediately greeted and seated. Our server was excellent. Happy hour is all day every day with $6 house wine (there is no happy hour because the prices are already exceptional)! My friends got a large pizza and I ordered the Combination pasta which includes spaghetti and meatballs, lasagna, and ravioli. Everything was so good. The portions are huge! My two friends both were able to take the pizza home for another meal. With that said, a small size pizza is perfect for 2 people. Highly highly recommend. I would drive to eat here any time! Note: this is a hole in the wall, casual dining, great spot for a low key date night or to catch up with friends read more

Great pizza...great prices. Love this place. Best thin crust I have ever had. My friends and I go about 2x a week. Staff is very friendly.

Food: 8.9/10 Service: 9/10 Ambiance: 10/10 Here we go again, y'all know Italian is my favorite! Although I seek authenticity, I give this place their flowers most for food portion, vibes and seasoning their food good If you love a cute hole in the wall, romantic sounds of Sinatra, Nat King Cole & Other jazzy artists this is a spot for you! Great for lunch/dinner (haven't tried breakfast). FLAVOR is not something neglected here (unlike other restaurants attempting to serve Italian in Dallas, Tx). Highly recommend.

Has been our favorite local Italian spot for 20+ years! Cozy metro awesome! Favorite local pizza and the Fettuccini Alfredo is the best. Also love their local house wines! read more

If you can ignore the dated decor, the great service and food make this worth the trip. I grew up in the northeast and this place reminds me of a local small town pizza place where families visit weekly. Loved the pesto pizza! I also like how there aren't a million choices- unless you make your own. It has all the basics and prices are reasonable considering it's so close to downtown. Thanks to our waitress who was very sweet and efficient! I wish I remembered her name. read more

4.5 stars if I could Food: Homemade pasta dough and salad dressings. Good value - reasonable price for quality and quantity of food. Clams are small for the seafood dish, but the white sauce is good. Spaghetti and meatball are a classic.. pizzas are always great. Sometimes the main dish are have a too high percentage of pasta to other stuff. Ex. 80% of past to 20% of chicken parm. I wish sometimes it was a slightly more balanced meal. 4.5 stars instead of five because most dishes are outstanding, and others are just ok. Wine glass - super reasonable based on price. Ambience - casual, classic single business family vibes. Service - solid. read more

I want to leave a great review because they are our neighborhood restaurant but they are TERRRRRRIBLE!!!!! I ordered pizza 2 hours ago for delivery for 6 starving children and I finally called to learn our pizzas were not even made and they were having trouble with delivery yet no one had decency to call or tell us. Have some respect and own up to mistakes so we couldve figured out another way to feed small toddlers. They told us it would be delivered in 45 minutes. This happened more than once to us and I feel will always happen. Wish you all the best of luck but you all lost a loyal, huge referral source and biggest neighbor fan to support local businesses. read more

Wow oh wow the spicy pasty was AMAZING!!! This little family owned Italian is the best place in Dallas. I feel like Dallas has a huge opportunity for good Italian. This place is so good. We also had an amazing pizza. Super affordable. read more

Stopped in to get a bite to eat and they were super busy. I think we got forgotten about and it took about an hour to get our pizza - they were apologetic. The salad with house dressing was really good. We got the white pizza with shrimp. It was good but I don't think we would get it again. Didn't enjoy the tomatoes on it. read more

Scalini's Pizza and Pasta - Shrimp Scalinis Alfredo Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Dined here 4/14/25 for lunch with a friend. I went with the chicken scallopini which was the best I ever had. Big portion of perfectly cooked chicken covered in just enough capers, artichokes and mushrooms. The lemon, butter wine sauce was perfect- not too thick. Lovely side salad with Greek like dressing. I had it severed over zucchini and squash to made it GF. Friend had 10 inch pepperoni pizza- delicious. Friendly waitress that made our day. Favorite lunch place now. read more

There are a lot of Italian joints in the city and some really amazing ones in my view, but this one, while having a cool vibe inside is really just ok in the Pizza department. I ordered a cheese pizza and a meat pizza, pretty standard for me anywhere I go when I go Italian. The crust was decent, but in a mediocre kind of way. The cheese appeared to be good quality, but lacked getting much further in the culinary delighting category. read more

A coworker ordered a cheese pizza when we we're working in the area. It was actually pretty good, why I decided to bring the family to the establishment. Located in a shopping center in Lakewood Hills area. Small place with a bar as well, we ordered a pepperoni pizza and my daughter ordered some pasta. Pizza was very good, I tried my daughters pasta and was good as well I think it was the chicken Alfredo or shrimp one of those. Pricing was ok, food was great though. read more

We go to Scalini's often and are never disappointed. The food is prepared with fresh authentic ingredients and is consistently good. The staff is friendly and attentive, and their pizza can't be beat. Their salmon and salads are excellent. We like the intimate environment that has the feel of a well loved neighborhood favorite (which it is). read more

Have enjoyed the food and ambience here several times. Took my little Granddaughter yesterday and we both chose something different than we intended.. the waiter was really patient and helpful. Both of us enjoyed the meal and will come back soon!! read more

I don't believe I've ever had Pene and Shrimp Alfredo that could top what I had last night at Scalini's. Seriously delectable. I stuffed myself silly. And Jose proved himself the most excellent wait staff always present just when we needed something. The Old Italian charm of the place was the perfect topper to an exquisite dinner. Can't wait to go back to work through more menu items. read more

I have been going to Scalini's since the 90's tonight I was verbally insulted by the female that handed me my to go order when I called to complain that my order was wrong read more

Not great to say the least. Always want to support local,but Scalini's continues to disappoint time after time (in person and takeout). Tonight's was the last chance. Fettuccine alfredo came broken and clumpy, sitting in piles of grease. Takeout can be a gamble, but there is no way it should look like this when picked up immediately and driven less than 10 minutes. Really, really gross. A call to let the restaurant know resulted in a curt "ok" - no apology or even a hollow attempt to make it right. Hopefully it'll make someone else's night better by choosing a different place to dine. read more

Scalini's Pizza and Pasta - Fettuccine alfredo - Pizza Near Me - Dallas, Texas

We ran into friends (teachers!) and picked up their tab ($124.73), that included a ridiculously generous tip. Our food (pizza) took forever, arrived terribly over-cooked, dry, and completely flavorless ($30.16). Bleech. The waiter politely did explain several times that the kitchen was backed up with pizza orders. While I did mention the poor quality of the food to the manager, he offered up only a "thanks for letting us know." read more

I doubt I will be ordering from this place again. I ordered a large pizza that was very very late for delivery getting to me. I had to call the restaurant four times to see where my pizza was the person that answered the phone told me that it was out for delivery and it was 45 minutes late. I called back again after that time and said I would like a refund on my money and somehow before the pizza got to my door it eventually got to my door after I called about the refund. I don't know what went on with this delivery, but they told me on the phone that they had more than one delivery to do that evening. they still have not offended my money yet for this purchase the pizza was OK itself. It wasn't really appealing to me and it taste like something you would get at the grocery store in the freezer section. read more

Family dinner on Friday night at Scalini's ...our favorite place let us down...normally a 5 star experience went south when our food took a very long time to arrive at our table...the waitress said the kitchen was backed up...our order was 2 plates of pasta and 2 sides of pasta for my boys...when the food finally arrived only 2 plates were served and then the other 2 dishes came at least 10 minutes later...once we were able to eat together...we finished eating and I got up to ask for a sack for our to-go packages...I noticed our waitress was on her cell phone...perhaps the reason our food took so long!!! I then put the Styrofoam containers in the paper sack. The containers did not fit in the sack at all...Note: Whoever is in charge of the to go packaging needs to rethink this process... The food was good but what a mess when we arrived home... Here is the bag when we arrived at home... read more

We've tried Scalini's a few times for big delivery options for a large family, you can't go wrong with Italian-sized portions. Props to their crust, thin and crunchy without a huge worry if these feel or taste a little on the burnt side. Their alfredo was heavenly, not sure if this was a delivery choice but it came out to a near-baked-like texture, which will be my go-to pasta request going forward! read more

Authentic Italian in Lakewood! Love the food & location. The chicken parm is 10/10. The location is perfectly located in Lakewood.

Food is excellent, service is great and the ambiance gives the vibe of The Rat Pack with clandestine meetings going on in a smoke-filled room in the back. This place is legendary! read more

Excellent service, food not so much. The cream of mushroom soup of the day was foamy and incredibly salty. We ordered Penne & Shrimp Romano which was a tad bit too salty as well but still good, and this Italian sausage dish that for some reason tasted something of black licorice . The salad was nice, but we were never given our complimentary garlic bread. Maybe one day we'll try Scalini's again and order something else. read more

For the of Pizza!!! Their house salad and blue crab claws in garlic butter are very tasty. My favorite is a large pizza with sausage and pepperoni. The sausage is dry and crumbly with fennel seeds, dang it! I live in Wisconsin, but visit my brother in Dallas. When I'm there visiting, you'll know where to find me. TLo read more
