Mister O1 Extraordinary Pizza offers dozens of thin-crusted artisanal pizzas and more in the Alliance area of Fort Worth.

The company was founded in Miami in 2014 by chef Renato Viola and has now grown with locations across the south in Florida, Georgia and North Texas.

All of the pizzas, either 8 inches or 13 inches, are made with natural fermented dough that sits between 72 hours and 96 hours before being used. The dough has no sugar added to it, according to the menu.

“To us, Italy is synonymous with quality,” Viola said in an email. “At Mister O1, we focus on quality as well as simplicity to create a delicious product.”

Chris Brooke, Mister O1 Texas marketing coordinator, said the unique shape of the pizza helped Viola stand out among his competition.

Popular menu items: The Star Luca is one of the most popular menu items and is one of nine listed under extraordinary pizzas, Brooke said.

In 2023, the Texas Legislature passed House Bill 2127, a sweeping regulatory measure designed to prevent cities and counties from adopting local ordinances that conflict with various sections of state law. Three years later, there is confusion about what local governments can and cannot do under the law.

The background: At the time, some legislators and other proponents of the bill said it would ensure consistency among Texas cities, citing ordinances passed by “liberal blue cities” that they said made it hard to run a business. Opponents of HB 2127, including some local leaders, said the law would prevent cities from addressing residents’ needs while undermining local worker safety provisions and nondiscrimination ordinances.

What's happening: During a June 4 hearing, the law’s critics said it has had a “chilling effect” on some local actions, while those who support the law expressed concerns that cities have not removed ordinances that are preempted by the state.

Ahead of the 2027 state legislative session, lawmakers are considering whether changes are needed to clarify or better enforce the law.
