Cane Rosso on Commerce Street in Dallas’s Deep Ellum neighborhood has been one of the city’s most celebrated Neapolitan pizzerias since Jay Jerrier opened it in 2011, earning VPN certification for its wood-fired pizza technique and building a menu around the imported Italian ingredients, proper dough fermentation, and the 900-degree wood-fired oven that the Neapolitan tradition requires. It appeared in Season 14, Episode 5 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Big Time Flavor,” which aired April 30, 2012. Guy Fieri found a Dallas pizza kitchen doing certified Neapolitan pizza with the authenticity and quality that earns a Texas restaurant its national food media reputation.

What to Eat
The Margherita — San Marzano tomatoes, fresh fior di latte mozzarella, basil, and olive oil on a properly blistered Neapolitan crust — is the benchmark that tells you everything about whether a Neapolitan pizza kitchen knows what it’s doing. Cane Rosso’s answer is yes. The Honey Bastard with soppressata, mozzarella, and hot honey is the creative house specialty that most regulars consider the best pie on the menu. The Bianca with ricotta, garlic, and fresh herbs is the white pizza option that earns its own devoted following. The House-Made Burrata with seasonal accompaniments is the antipasto worth ordering while the pizza bakes. Find a Dallas hotel on Trivago.
