Pizzeria Testa

Went the with friends who are Italian and they were the one who recommended this place as the most authentic Italian restaurant. The servers were great. Got seated pretty quickly for lunch right as they opened. Plenty of seats inside and out although outside might be hot in the summer month. We ordered some pizzas, some appetizers, some rosette and tiramisu dessert. You can definitely taste the freshness of the ingredients and the crust weren’t thick like a Chicago style. The pizzas were cooked in a pizza oven and the cross was crispy on the outside, chewy on inside. Definitely a place I would go back to for an authentic Italian meal.

Great spot to have a refreshing salad and wine. Of course you can order their pizza but I don’t have a review on that. Atmosphere is vibrant though quite loud. Could be because of the acoustic design of the restaurant. The restaurant has a private room where you can host parties. Very spacious. And they also have a bar to dine at and outdoor seating.

One of the authentic Italian restaurants in town. We had a really nice time dining here. The tiramisu was delicious. The pizza was too good. The restaurant is huge and they also have outdoor seating. They also have a bar. The atmosphere can get a bit noisy sometimes. They customize the orders according to our choices

Quite possibly the best pizza in Collin County. Staff is willing to make changes to accommodate tastes. Always a great experience.

The pizza here is so tasty and delicious. The sausage had such fresh flavor, I was so impressed. The pizza tastes like it was made on an outside grill and is so good. Be aware that they use whole olives that tend to roll off! It was still great but be ready to catch them or slice them yourself :) Was a little pricey for the pizza. I'd recommend sharing but it was worth the price. I'll be coming back soon!

Cute pizzeria made with fresh ingredients from Italy. They have a lunch menu which includes a salad and their outdoor patio is really nice. The tiramisu was amazing. Would come back!

We were there for pizza. It was fine as fast-bake super thin pizzas go. We are from Chicago tho so always in pursuit of that tavern style and this was not it. But def a nice place. Great style and atmosphere, great variety on the menu. May have to go for non-pizza sometime

Amazing food! And amazing atmosphere, we sat inside, but next time I want to try outside, it looked really quiet and peaceful outside on their patio! Would love to come back🔥😍

Ah, Pizzeria Testa--finally, a place that understands pizza isn't just food, it's a spiritual experience wrapped in mozzarella and poor life choices. One bite of that wood-fired Neapolitan pie and I was transported straight to Naples--minus the passport, jet lag, and existential dread of international travel. The crust? Thin, crisp, and just charred enough to let you know it's been through some stuff--like it paid taxes and still got audited. The sauce was so fresh I half-expected it to ask me how my day was going. And the cheese? Let's just say I now understand why people write love songs about dairy. Staff was friendlier than a grandma on bingo night, and the whole vibe screamed we take our carbs seriously here. I walked in hungry and walked out full, happy, and already plotting my return like a low-key pizza stalker. 5 stars. Would sell minor personal belongings for another slice.

First timer here but will definitely become a regular. The pizza here is so delightful, thin, full of flavor and perfect portion as an individual pizza or to share with others. I like my pizza on the crisper side which I initially asked for but shy'd away after our waitress said it may come out on the burnt side. Next time I'm going to ask them to the pizza in the oven for a few more minutes. I really enjoyed the San Marzano sauce. Prices are a bit on the higher side but definitely worth it. Ambiance is low key, not too noisy, great place. Only down fall was window sills were a bit dirty so there were so many flys in our area. Service was 6/10, didn't see our server much. Overall 8/10.

Came to Pizzeria Testa to celebrate a friend's birthday! Before this, I had only been to the Lower Greenville location, so I was excited to check this one out. The space is very clean, and a lot more warm with the brown tones spread throughout the restaurant. We were seated at a 4-person high top table, and though the table space was a little small, it worked for just two of us. Service was amazing, our server was so sweet, accommodating, and really added to our experience. I got a cocktail and it was pretty strong - definitely a sipper. We ordered the focaccia and olives - and to my surprise, it was not focaccia. I am not sure why it was labeled as such on the menu, but it was more of pita-bread slices of something else. This was also very chewy and at times, difficult to pull apart. I ordered a calzone and swapped the meat for garlic and mushrooms. This was great, and HUGE! I had lunch the following day. My friend ordered a marg pizza and enjoyed it. We were offered a free dessert to celebrate her birthday, which was so yum and much appreciated. We went with the tiramisu! Overall, this was a pretty positive experience (minus the ambiguous focaccia-not-focaccia), and I would return!

Testa Rossa Not a great pic of a phenomenal pizza! Spicy and flavorful with such fresh tomatoes and Basil, I love it. Obsessed with this place!

Love the Italian flour! Delicious and unique pizza and the arugula salad is delicious too

We've been eating here for almost 11 years now. For those who aren't familiar, it's not some low-brow American pizza place (no offense). It's a rustic, lovely Neapolitan restaurant with amazing Italian wine, Italian spin on cocktails, and the best Italian style pizzas in North Texas. By far, my favorite restaurant atmosphere in Frisco. And a great weekday lunch combo as well! Staff there is incredible (starting with E, stands for Excellent, the longtime manager.) Even the tall food-runner kid with glasses ;-)

We've been to many Neapolitan style pizza places in the DFW area and Pizzeria Testa in Frisco has easily become our favorite. The sauce is always so fresh and flavorful. The testa rossa pizza with extra fresh basil is our favorite. The brick oven crust is excellent with just the right amount of char. The Spianata rosettes with red sauce for dipping are also addictive. Another fave and complement of flavors is the pinoli & prosciutto salad with fresh greens, prosciutto, toasted pine nuts, strawberries and balsamic vinaigrette. The building, service, and atmosphere are a perfect balance between nice enough for date night yet casual enough for anytime meals with family and friends. They also have a patio facing a small park that is pleasant when the weather is nice.

Great pizza and service! We all ordered different pizzas for lunch and none disappointed. We also ordered the bread which was fabulous too!

So good! Went for lunch on a Friday with a large group and got the lunch special (smaller sized pizza & side salad), it was delicious. Looking forward to going again and trying more!

Went to lunch to try it out with my grandson, while at Frisco Sq. Very nice place and friendly staff. Ver spacious and nicely decorated, an Italian feel. Food was ok. Pizza selection was not very appealing. There are no kids menus, cheese pizza was mainly sauce with pieces if cheese. Asked for a side if mozzarella to add to pizza, they didn't have any, only offered Parmesan. (2/10). My salad was tasty 5/10. The focaccia was ok, would have liked fresh ground pepper with the balsamic and oil, not available. I ordered the veggies with artichoke. (3/10) Overall with the service 6/10.

Q & Z & Mom Review: Food: Q: It's really good and the pizza has thick dough. And the appetizers are perfect. Z: I like that it is nice and cheesy. Mom: Everything was fresh and delicious and all the food was eaten because the kids loved it all! Service: Q: Really nice people and a friendly restaurant. Z: They are friendly and nice to customers. Mom: Very attentive and checked in multiple times to make sure all is okay. Ambiance: Q: I like the chandeliers and I like the pizza ovens. Z: I like the lights and I like that's there's bricks because it keeps us safe. Mom: Quieter dining and wasn't too noisy. Lighting nice and there are large windows to let in natural light. Overall: Q: 5 stars Z: 5 stars Mom: 5 stars

We love testa! I've been a regular here for about 10 years! I go every Sunday after church and it's always delicious. I just yesterday celebrated my early birthday because I work tonight they gave me a free dessert. There tiramisu is to die for!!!! The service is always top tier and I love how welcoming and clean everything is... it's pricey but not too bad - a pizza is around 15$ the espresso martini and cocktails are wonderful! Overall 10/10!

I went to Pizzeria Testa for my birthday and it was such a positive experience. They put us in a table in the back room, so it felt more intimate & VIP. The waiter brought out waters without even asking! Our pizzas were made so quickly. Then, the waiter brought us tiramisu & lit a candle for my birthday. He was very polite, even brought a to-go box for the pizza and tiramisu. When my mom brought my birthday cake to our table, he brought utensils to cut the cake & helped my mom serve it. I love Pizzeria Testa. 10/10!! The staff is so polite, the bathrooms were clean, the tables & floors were clean.

Thanks to Pizzeria Testa, my fiancé & I are hooked on brick oven pizza. We absolutely love coming here, it's the food, the customer service, & ambiance that it all serves in one visit. When we have friends & family come to visit we take them here & they even love it themselves. Our favorite is the Testa Rossa (red pizza) & pesto (white pizza). Don't forget to get the tiramisu, cherry on top!

Food and service was not worth the wait even on a slower Tuesday night with flies everywhere

Pizzeria Testa (not to be confused with the battery superpower) is amongst the best locations to get lunch in Frisco! It is a delightful blend of Italian & American cuisine! I was in Frisco for workshop on Monday (12/4) and the workshop leader, Nicole, planned for us to go to Pizzeria Testa for lunch. To my delight, it exceeded all expectations! The restaurant was brilliantly placed in the middle of a populated area. The design and layout was simple, yet stylish. Our server, Abby or Abi or Abbie, was very nice and took care of us well. The food was prepared and cooked to captivating flavor! Our team ordered a mix of sandwiches and pizza. I ordered the Salsiccia pizza, because of the meats included (PROTEIN) and would order it again! My favorite thing was the Tiramisu that Nicole had gotten for the table () - I would go back just for that!! If you find yourself in Frisco, make your way over to Pizzeria Testa. No matter what your expectations - you will not be disappointed. Safe to say that Testa passes the Test: (A)

Our favorite pizza restaurant in DFW. They specialize in neopolitan pizza. Our go-to is the contadina, which has potato and pancetta. Potato in pizza isn't something you typically find around here but is common in Italy. The margherita is great as well. The crust is very thin and airy and you can tell they use high-quality ingredients. A great atmosphere sitting outside and facing Frisco Square as well. Quality has been consistently great everytime we've been whether dine in or takeout.

Great pizza and atmosphere. Whenever we visit Dallas, we usually make sure to stop by.

I've been here twice. The pizza is unlike any other I've had. It's simple. Great crust covered with great cheese. There is no discernable sauce. If you get a pizza with ingredients, they're sparce. I've tried the Quattro Carne (meats) and Ortolana (squash, peppers and eggplant). I liked the veggie one better. The dining room is very romantic, great date night!

This place is AMAZING! The pizza reminds me of Italy. I didn't expect this place to be so delicious. The service, ambiance, and food were 10/10. I highly recommend.

Not bad flavor but the crust is extremely flimsy and soft. I prefer a bit of a crunchier crust or at least one that doesn't flop over when picked up. Waaayyyyy too much sauce and not enough cheese IMO.

Love the 3 ft pizza!! Good place, good food, and great customer service!! I like the environment too!

Great pizza , authentic experience; as the saying goes - you get what you pay for - appetizers were solid, salad was fresh -

Well buongiorno, this pizza was more authentically Italian than my great-grandmother from Italy. That first bite was so scrumptious it nearly gave me a stroke not unlike the one she passed away from. And most certainly do not miss on the Nutella sandwiches for dessert, if you plan on feeling a fraction of the ascent to heaven my late great-grandmother likely experienced. God rest her soul and god rest my ravenous appetite so that I may remain thin after remembering this place exists. Amen.

The tiramisu was by far my favorite part of the meal! They did give some good recommendations and was very attentive. The area is nice, especially on a nice sunny day.

Always my go to when I'm in town! The inside is beautiful, and you can see them cooking the pizzas right when you walk in the door which I love. The servers are always so friendly and helpful when asking for suggestions and anything new to try. You can tell they use fresh ingredients cause we never leave feeling disgusting, no matter how much food we eat! Always look forward to this place and can't wait to be back!

Delicious, just needs more salt. I ordered pick up and my order was really very quickly!

Poor Management and Poor Staff Training impacting services and quality of the food during peak hours. Team lately cannot effectively maintain attentive services resulting in chaos environment. From Hostess to servers everyone is constantly rushing during peak hours forgetting to touch tables with zero focus on customer services. Management needs to work on team morale and trainings for consistency in services. Pizza is always rushed lately. Sauce and cheese slides off over soggy slice of pizza which is not cooked properly. Overall food and services are becoming mediocre and need improvement.

Food is great!!! It's fresh and authentic. Friday nights are a bit crowded so expect to wait! But overall it's a good place for lunch or dinner.

Our experience started off rocky with the hostess. She was very unwelcoming when we walked in. She didn't say hello just stared at us and waited for us to tell her how many people. As soon as she sat us she just walked away without saying anything about our server. We waited for about 5 minutes before our server greeted us and got our drink orders. Food was actually very good and filling, but the service was lacking. Our server wasn't very present. Don't get me wrong, I'm a server myself so I understand if you're busy or just having a bad day. But she wasn't very attentive. Our food runner was more attentive than her. The ambiance was chill not too loud.

Just good. Real good. We come here every time we visit our daughter and son in law. We've never been unhappy. Vibrant atmosphere. Delicious food.

Went for lunch and got a mule, the lunch salad and pizza, and finished with an espresso martini. Everything was good but I wish the pizza was less doughy in the middle.

We were here for a birthday dinner and it absolutely did not disappoint! This is the best Neopolitan style pizza I have had in DFW from a genuine brick oven. We were seated promptly at the kitchen bar (it was packed, but we didn't mind a free show) and were served just as quickly. With the turnout, we didn't expect to get our food so fast either! From top to bottom, both pizzas were stunning, especially the Tricolore. The respective flavors worked like clockwork though one of our pizzas could have used a second or two more in the oven. The basil-infused olive oil was excellent, but the added moisture combined with slight underbaked crust made it soggy. And yet, if I received the same pizza next time, I still wouldn't complain. Absolutely incredible.

The food was amazing. We had pizza, pancetta salad, and the focaccia bread for appetizer. Everything was super delicious and fresh. Hostess and waitress were friendly and attentive. The restaurant had a warm and inviting atmosphere. We'll be back again when we're in the Frisco area.

One of the best pizzas I have tasted in Dallas. This restaurant is located in Frisco, TX. The pizzas are fresh and tasty. They are made from scratch and I noticed their pizzas aren't greasy. The portion is good enough for 3-4 people. We ordered 4 pies and we ate it all. The servers were attentive. The decor is simple and cozy. I would come back for more!

In Evansville, Indiana there is a restaurant called Pangea. The pizza there is amazing. We have never found a restaurant that could match Pangea until now. The pizza at Pizzeria Testa is so good and full of favor. Everything tastes fresh. Our server was so welcoming and friendly. She gave us suggestions and really knew the menu. The owner/manager came out and ask us if everything was good and cleared our appetizers plates. We got three pizzas. All were excellent. You must save room for the tiramisu. The best I ever had. The atmosphere was pleasant. Decor is beautiful. This restaurant is a must

Always will vote for TESTA's PIZZERIA in Frisco, TX as the "best" -- unless we're in Italy and that's a whole other story!!

First time experiencing true Italian pizza. It was delicious!! We will definitely be back. We also loved the patio with the green space. My kiddos were able to run around while we waited on food.

Food was great. I just wish they had actual high chairs instead of booster seats they place on soft areas chairs that are in no way secure enough for a rambunctious toddler.

This was a nice pizza joint. I got the lunch special which included a personal pizza and salad for only 11 bucks. I got the margarita pizza with a side of sauce for crust dipping. They didn't charge me for the sauce which was nice. The servers were all high school girls and they covered for each other which meant speedy service. Pizza was good and salad was acceptable. I'm not much of a salad guy so I can't really comment there. Worth a visit if you are in the area!

First time here and certainly not the last. We started with some martinis and ordered the All Italianna (charcuterie board) to share. As the appetizer hit the table, we then ordered a Mista and Pancetta (no pancetta for my vegetarian friend), a pizza and a Formaggi rosette. There was no time for pictures :) The board hit the table with a side of rosemary dusted foccaccia bread. The meats and cheeses were perfect - and I wish all charcuterie boards had such depth of flavor. My hubby chose a nice chianti to finish out the meal. The salads hit the table quickly. The Mista was good but the Pancetta salad was my favorite. Then, the pizza and rosettes were dropped off. I adore the little bites of cheesy goodness for sure and will try another next time. I'm already plotting another return this week. It's a nice spot, bright and airy. Service was good and attentive. Go there. Get some. Life is too short for boring food!

Why have I not come here for pizza! This place is doing it right. You can watch them making the pizzas and using the pizza peel to put them in the oven. I'm not sure what kind of oven it is but there's wood burning in there. The crust is perfection, with some dark spots and bubbles. The main part of the pizza is thin has a good bite to it. We picked the Sausage and Mushroom Pizza with basil. It was on the money. The flavors were amazing and the fresh mozzarella was perfectly cooked. We also ordered a caprese appetizer. It was so fresh from the tomatoes and twig of basil sitting atop. We came lunch in a weekday and maybe had to wait 5 min for a table but that was only because I can't sit on bar stools. There's plenty of spots and high tables and outdoor seating.

Undeniably the best pizza in Frisco and the surrounding area. I cannot even begin to explain the level of detail that is emphasized through their food. When asked where my favorite place to eat and have a drink with my beautiful wife, I will always reply with my beloved Pizzeria Testa. Above average drinks, comfy atmosphere, and superior customer service. As I was seated for Dinner during my last visit, I was skeptical of the waiter that approached me. He introduced himself as Blake. Tall, dark haired, and seemingly way too handsome to provide service that upholds the reputation of this outstanding establishment. After asking for my order, he promptly returned to refill drinks and ask how he could improve our experience. I was flabbergasted to say the least. What did I ever do to deserve such an amazing server? On top of having the best food in town, they never fail to hire employees that exemplify their core values. I will always remember Pizzeria Testa, and even while lying on my death bed, I will ask for the Parma Panuozzi with extra Proscuitto. I dare to say that Blake Necaise will be there beside me as the light of life is fading from my eyes, and he will be there to comfort me as he did on this very day. Thank you, Blake. You are what this world is lacking in friendship, compassion, and empathy. The only negative thing that I can say about this place, is that they don't have ranch. Maybe Blake can work his magic, and convince the higher ups to consider adding ranch to the menu. Much love, Chandler Thomson

Pizza is good. A bit chewy. Authentic to Italy style. Much to be desired, but much to be appreciated. Fresh ingredients are apparent, and old school styles are vivid. Definitely worth a second try.

This turned out to be a fantastic place to visit after watching movies in Frisco Square. It's walking distance from just about everything in the area. The restaurant is very lively and you can see all the pizza being made in their huge custom-made brick ovens. It's a sight to see. The service is exceptional. The food is delicious; I'm not even a big pizza fan but I always want to come here. Their thin-crust pizza is a must-try. Good luck reading the very Italian menu but pretty much anything on there is good.

Great spot very good pizza we like to sit outside when the weather is ok. Service is always great.

Very disappointed. I usually recommend Pizzeria Testa as a good place to go when I am asked as I have lived in Frisco 23+ yrs. We have ordered take out twice in the last 6 months and both times it was terrible. The takeout pizza is soggy and looks like it was made by a novice. The Margherita pizza was mostly pizza sauce with 4 pieces of mozzarella and 5 shriveled basil leaves. There were entire pieces of pizza with nothing but pizza sauce. On our 2nd pizza, ingredients were very inconsistent with 'bald spots' all over and clumps of toppings unevenly spread around. Eating in the restaurant is usually very good, or used to be good... But take out is not.

Definitely a big fan of this place. They have a great lunch special that offers a personal pizza and salad for a decent price! I upgraded to the pancetta salad which is delightful and well worth it, though I asked for mixed greens instead of arugula. They also offer a free dessert if it's your birthday! They have the best tiramisu around. This place was perfect and quite the hidden gem.
