Campisi's Restaurants

Founded on the idea of handshakes and hellos, Campisi's Restaurants has been serving iconic, award-winning pizzas and family Italian dishes since 1946.

Owned and operated by the Campisi family, the original landmark “Egyptian Lounge” has been legendary for being “the place to go” by celebrities and locals in the know who want the real deal when it comes to good Italian. Everyone is invited to the table seven days a week at any of our locations in the DFW area. Stay in touch with the family on social media and on the web at www.campisis.us. Monthl

Did you know the classic dish of spaghetti and meatballs was not invented in Italy? 🍝
Italian immigrants first brought the idea of meatballs to America. These Italian Americans who emigrated here between 1880 and 1920 found that making meatballs was very budget-friendly in America, and to bulk up the meal, they added pasta and a sauce made with canned tomatoes.
We still enjoy this Italian American classic today, so stop by Campisi’s to celebrate tradition and order some spaghetti and meatballs!

Why did the pizza maker go broke?

Because he kneaded the dough!

Life's too short for bad pizza! Swing by Campisi's for the best pizza in town. We've got you covered whether you’re craving a classic pepperoni or something more adventurous.

A classic summer cocktail favorite remains the mule, and at Campisi’s you can get a Tito’s American Mule. The cold, fizzy ginger beer mixed with the tartness of lime will cool you down from a hot summer day. You can leave it at that as a mocktail or get the full cocktail with Tito’s vodka to spice up the moment.

08/19/2024

A fresh serving of bruschetta is sure to keep the summer heat at bay. Enjoy a plate of garlic bruschetta baguettes for the table, topped with olive oil spread, savory Roma tomatoes, and fragrant basil leaves.

We love giving back to our community and supporting organizations like The Nick Gonzalez Foundation, a foundation that raises awareness for brain cancer.

Nothing shows the colors of Italy more than our Tuscan salad! 🥗
A vibrant bowl of mixed greens, fresh cucumbers, bright red tomatoes, artichoke hearts, and crunchy croutons are tossed in Italian dressing and served directly to you for a light yet delectable meal.

Did you know that in the early beginnings of the Campisi’s story, we didn’t serve pizza? After World War II, Papa first bought a bar with a small kitchen called the Idle Hour, and it wasn’t until his cousin visited from New York and suggested they sell “Pizza Pies,” because they were so popular in the big city. That was when Texas’s first pizza ever was created.

Our Sautéed Shrimp Scampi wows our guests with eight gulf shrimp sautéed beautifully in a garlic butter sauce to complement the natural flavors of this seafood dish. The shrimp and garlic butter is then tossed with angel hair pasta to soak up the extra sauce. 🍤

There’s something about the crunch of biting into a salad that hits differently in the summer. 🥗
It’s the perfect balance of cool veggies, leafy greens, and a hint of dressing that seems to complement the summer heat just right. To make it better, salads are lighter on the stomach, keeping you ready to get out for spontaneous summer fun!

08/05/2024

Happy back-to-school season! 🚌
Time flies, and summer is already coming to a close. Make sure to stop by Campisi’s with the family to celebrate the great summer we’ve had with your family’s favorite Italian dish!

Swing by Campisi’s for an iced beverage to cool off! Try our Orange Spritz, a light, fizzy sip featuring Prosecco and Aperol, or check out our version of Ranch Water, using Flecha Azul Blanco and Topo Chico. We also offer mocktails, soda, iced tea, and more!

07/29/2024

A great question from The Harbor Rockwall! So which do you prefer, ranch or no ranch? Let us know in the comments what team you’re on, or tell us what other dipping sauce might be even better than ranch.

07/26/2024

A popular appetizer is our calamari, but what makes it so tasty?
The fresh calamari rings are coated in a simple mixture of flour, salt, oregano, and pepper then fried for a few minutes. Once the crispy rings are dry and plated, we splash them with lemon, sprinkle on some Romano cheese, and serve them with a marinara dipping sauce. Yum!😋🦑

07/24/2024

Enhance your dining experience with wine pairings from the chef:
1. Pair the Meat Supreme with Whitehavent Sauvignon Blanc.
2. Pair the Cali Pizza with 11 Minutes Italian Rosé.
3. Pair the Chicken Spinach Alfredo Pizza with Wente Riva Ranch Chardonnay.

In general, if the toppings are high in acidity like tomatoes, pair your pizza with a high-tannin red or rosé. If your pizza is mostly cheesy, pair it with a more acidic wine like a Pinot Noir. Let the wine balance your palate by offering a complementary mouthfeel.🍷🍕

Did you know that back in 1971, Campisi’s was granted one of the first liquor licenses in Texas after prohibition? 🍾

This license helped Campisi’s grow and expand, serving drinks and eats to family friends, politicians, and sports figures through the years.

Are you familiar with our specialty pastas?😋

A crowd favorite is The Soprano Pasta Special, a dish of penne pasta topped with Spicy Pink Vodka Sauce. It’s like Carmela Soprano made it for you herself! Pair it with Chardonnay and add garlic toast to complete the meal.

You can’t go wrong with a cool salad on hot, summer days. Keep it simple with fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, and olives, or make it more filling with our Chopped Salad, which adds salami, provolone, and artichoke hearts. Opting for a salad this season can keep you full and energetic without the heft of a carb-loaded entrée.

All thanks to our very own Carlos “Papa” Campisi, the Dallas pizza scene was born in 1946—one could even call Papa Campisi the father of Texas pizzerias! Papa brought Italian tradition to Dallas and set the scene for future pizzerias to come.
