Emily's Italian Bistro — Restaurant in Allen

The food is good, but it seems to be one of those places that is heavily reliant on online ordering systems like Slice. Online ordering is good and convenient, but it's nice to be able to call a place as well.

After placing an order I realized I forgot one item, so I tried to call to see if I could add the item. The phone just rang and rang. I eventually called Slice, and they got through to the restaurant. I was told that they were busy and stopped taking orders, which I thought was weird since it was only 6:30 PM. Anyway, the food arrived and was good, but I was unable to correct my mistake.

It's just frustrating because with a 60 second phone call, I could have either added the item, or found out that they can't do that and cancelled to order from somewhere else. Instead I spent 30 minutes calling trying to correct my mistake instead of spending time with family that was in town.

When I got home and looked in the boxes I was amazed. First off the weight is heavy. The crust is thin and crisp. Not soggy like you find so many times. And the vegetables… you can tell they are fresh from market. If you need a new favorite pizza place then this is it. We will be...

This is a one man operation, and he does one heck of a job! The slices really are the biggest, anywhere. One is all you need, but buy 2 anyway to support the business! This would be the perfect pizza if there was just a little more dough for the crust for taste, but also i feel like the crust on full size pizzas comes out overcooked, but not so on the slices. However it is still the best pizza joint i have tried so far in the McKinney Frisco Allen area.

Update: Emily's is now my go to pizza joint. It has been difficult to order via apps, slice, or menufy. They will say the restaurant can not take orders. So call or just go there during their normal business hours if you run...
