Love Life (and Pizza), the Dallas-Fort Worth wood-fired pizza truck and catering business known for its Neapolitan-style pies, is preparing for a new location at 15080 Beltway Drive in Addison Park Place. A project filing registered on October 26 describes a 2,572-square-foot tenant improvement with an estimated construction cost of $150,000, with construction scheduled to begin November 2, 2026, and wrap up by February 1, 2027.
According to WhatNow, the filing was made with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, and the project is privately funded, with the tenant covering the costs. The outlet notes that the construction dates represent only the build-out schedule and do not establish a confirmed public opening date. The company also has not publicly detailed whether the Addison space will operate as a traditional restaurant, a pickup location, a production kitchen, or something else entirely.
Who’s Behind the Pies
Love Life (and Pizza) is led by Clara Cavalli-Chiappardi, an Italian-American chef, entrepreneur, and experienced restaurateur. She previously owned Cavalli Pizza in Dallas and Brick + Wood in Connecticut, according to the same report. Per Plano Magazine, Cavalli-Chiappardi sold Cavalli Pizza in 2016 following the death of her husband, then kept Brick + Wood running in Connecticut until 2021, when she sold that business and returned to Texas.
Today, the business serves the entire Dallas-Fort Worth area through its mobile pizza truck and catering services. Plano Magazine describes the operation as reaching the whole DFW region with a wood-fired pizza truck, Italian catering, and a gluten-free market.
What’s on the Menu
The company’s pizza dough ferments for 48 to 72 hours before the pies are baked in an Italian-imported wood-fired oven, according to WhatNow’s article and the company’s catering page. Beyond the Neapolitan-style pizzas, the business offers handmade gluten-free sourdough along with New York-style and thin-crust doughs, plus gluten-free baked goods and other specialty foods sold through its online marketplace…
