South Polk Pizzeria

Historical Oak Cliff is a community that’s been underserved for decades, with large fast food chains as the primary dining options. This storied past is exactly why South Polk Pizzeria’s owner chose the neighborhood for his newest endeavor: a high-caliber pizza joint that does wood-fired, fermented Neapolitan-style pies, plus wings and salads.

While the pizzas are the main draw, the desserts are a close second: the menu includes more than a dozen cake bowls, from carrot to caramel and everything in between. They’ve recently added an awning and outdoor seating if you want to stay a minute, or you can take any order to go.
