Preparing Your Order…
Loading, please wait.Providing groovy-good service for over 30 years. Handmade dough. Real cheese. Fresh veggies. A sauce that simmers for three days. This is how we have been making pizza on Preston Road since before most chain pizzerias opened their doors.
How a small pizza shop on Preston Road became a Dallas neighborhood institution.
Back in 1998, The Pizza Dude opened its doors on Preston Road in North Dallas with a simple idea: make pizza the right way, every single day, and treat every customer like a neighbor. No corporate playbooks. No frozen shortcuts. Just real ingredients, real recipes, and a genuine love for great food.
While national chains were competing to see who could make pizza the cheapest and fastest, we went the other direction. We built our menu around a homemade sourdough dough that we prepare fresh every morning. We chose 100% natural cheese over processed alternatives. We committed to hand-cutting every vegetable in-house rather than opening bags from a supplier. And we developed a signature red sauce that simmers for three full days before it ever touches a pie.
That commitment to doing things the hard way — the right way — is what has kept the Dallas community coming back for more than three decades. We have watched kids grow up eating our pizza, graduate, start families, and bring their own children back to the same table at 17390 Preston Road. We have fed Friday night football teams, Saturday birthday parties, and Sunday family dinners. We have delivered pizza (and beer and wine) to homes across North Dallas, Addison, and Carrollton thousands of times over.
Today, The Pizza Dude is still independently owned and operated from the same Preston Road location where it all started. Our recipes have not changed. Our standards have not dropped. And our commitment to the neighborhood has only grown stronger. With over 650 Google reviews and a 4.5-star rating, we are proud to be one of the highest-rated independent pizza restaurants in the DFW area — not because of marketing, but because of what comes out of our oven every single day.
Four promises we make to every customer, on every order, every day.
Every morning, our team prepares a fresh batch of sourdough dough from scratch right here in our kitchen on Preston Road. No frozen dough. No pre-made bases shipped in from a warehouse. Our sourdough starter gives every crust a distinctive tangy flavor and perfectly chewy texture that you simply cannot get from a chain pizzeria. It is the foundation of every Pizza Dude pie, and it is what keeps our customers coming back after 30 years.
We use only real, 100% natural mozzarella cheese with no fillers, no preservatives, and no processed blends. Many pizza places cut costs by using imitation or part-skim cheese products — you can taste the difference. Our cheese melts into a golden, bubbly layer on every pizza because it is the real thing. Quality cheese costs more, but we have never been willing to compromise on what goes on top of our pies.
Every vegetable that goes on a Pizza Dude pizza, salad, or sandwich is hand-cut fresh every day in our kitchen. Bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, jalapeños — all of it prepped by hand each morning. We never use pre-packaged, frozen, or canned vegetables. You can see and taste the difference in every bite. Fresh ingredients are not a marketing slogan for us — they are how we have done business since day one.
Our signature red sauce is not something you can rush. It simmers for a full three days, allowing the tomatoes, herbs, and spices to develop a deep, rich, complex flavor that you will not find anywhere else in Dallas. This is a recipe that has been perfected over three decades — slow-cooked the old-fashioned way, in small batches, with no shortcuts. It is the secret ingredient that ties every Pizza Dude pizza together.

Specialty Pizzas
We do not just deliver pizza to the neighborhood — we are the neighborhood.
Over three decades, The Pizza Dude has become a fixture of the Preston Highlands and North Dallas community. We sponsor local youth sports teams, support school fundraisers, and partner with neighborhood organizations throughout the year. When local families, schools, and businesses need a reliable partner for their events, they call us — and we always show up.
Our delivery drivers know the neighborhoods by heart. Our team remembers regulars by name. And when you walk into our restaurant on Preston Road, you are not just a customer — you are a neighbor grabbing a slice at the local pizza spot. That is the kind of relationship you build over 30 years, and it is something no chain restaurant can replicate.
We serve the communities of North Dallas, Preston Highlands, Addison, Carrollton, Far North Dallas, and the greater DFW area. Whether you are dining in, picking up, or getting delivery to your door, you are supporting a local, independent business that puts every dollar back into the food and the community.
