Prima Scelta Bistro - Garland

The restaurant is currently closed, and both their phone line and online ordering system are out of service. It's unfortunate because they offered excellent New York-style hand-tossed pizza and gluten-free options. They also had a nice selection of pasta dishes.

I had high hopes based on the glowing reviews, but my experience was quite disappointing. The chicken was tough and overcooked, and the pasta also seemed overdone. The Chicken Sorentina was mostly just black pepper flavored and otherwise bland, while the Picatta was overwhelmingly lemony. I didn't try the pizza, but I did see the staff working with the dough, and they appeared skilled. However, what we ordered did not live up to expectations.

The food is excellent, and the atmosphere feels like home. I highly recommend it for family gatherings or a pizza night!

Found our Italian place in Garland! Pizza was thin with the right amount of crisp. Loved the Calabrese, and you need a roll at the end to not let any go to waste!

Prima Scelta Bistro never disappoints. Food and service is impeccable. It’s a rare gem.
