50 Best Italian Restaurants in Dallas

“💯 recomendado un servicio, excelente la comida deliciosa, un trato excelente“

“Impeccable service and unbelievable delicious food!“

“Food was delicious! Very intimate experience if you get a reservation for 5 pm. We had a little issue during the meal, but they went so above and beyond to make it right, that I was very pleased with the service and overall experience. Would definitely recommend.“

“My partner and I came down to Dallas from OKC to celebrate our anniversary weekend. My partner has a severe gluten allergy so we always look for places that can accommodate that need. Our server, Matt, was incredible. He pointed out all the items that couldn’t be made gluten free. He answered all of our questions with confidence and clarity. We felt so comfortable with our selections. As for the food, OH MY GOD!!!!!!!! It was INCREDIBLE!!! You could have fooled me that it was gluten free (I know it was because I didn’t have to take my partner to the hospital)! Not only did the give us an amazing meal, but they brought out a special, gluten free dessert to celebrate our anniversary. We also were given some gift cards as a thank you for celebrating our anniversary there. We will ABSOLUTELY be back next time when we’re in town, and I cannot recommend this place or Matt enough, whether you’re gluten intolerant or not.“

“Restaurant week menu tastes great. Portion size is smaller than regular menu but just right for us because we don't want too much food. They offered an extra appetizer for my celebration. The cheese and olive gift is also really yummy. All in all, loved the food.“

“Amazing Family-Owned Italian Gem! We hosted a work dinner here, and I could not have asked for a better experience. The moment we walked in, the staff made us feel like part of the family. The service was warm, personal, and perfectly attentive without ever feeling rushed. The food? Outstanding. Every dish tasted homemade with so much care—from the fresh pasta to the perfectly seasoned entrees. Our team kept talking about how delicious everything was! It’s rare to find a restaurant that blends quality, comfort, and genuine hospitality this well. If you’re looking for a truly authentic, family-owned Italian spot for a dinner, date night, or group event, this is the place. We’ll definitely be back! 🍝❤️“

“It was an amazing experience celebrating a bday dinner with family at this place. An unexpected gem of a place that also happens to be Michelin recommended. Berkine was an amazing host for us, and the chef Ami was also very friendly. We ordered all vegetarian options and the chef went out of the way to give us a complimentary option to taste. Will definitely mark it as a favorite to return to“

“This place exceeded expectations on every level. Atmosphere was cozy for date night dinner before my wife and I went to see Nate Bargatze. The Food at all ends were alive with flavor kicking. The service was attentive and caring, just excellent. We started with The spinach artichoke dip. amazing, the chips (I believe their famous Italian nacho chips and homemade Garlic bread slices came together like a flavor family. My wife ordered the Primavera with chicken and the cream Parmesan sauce. out worldly, amazing. I would eat that sauce on everything. I ordered the Spicy Chicken Penne. A wonderful fusion of Sharp sundried tomatoes, sauteed Garlic cloves sauce and chicken. the spice was excellent as well, not overpowering like the star of the show, but rather a supporting actor that let you know they were there. The portions were very generous. don't expect to finish your entire dish, we went hungry and left with 1/3 of each of our entrees. I would recommend this place to anyone in Dallas, or going to Dallas..I would even recommend to the owners to venture down to Houston, as we could use this in our city. You would be missing out if you didn't come through this place at least once.“

“The food... EXCELLENCE!!!🍴🍷🍴“

“Great food, great service, great atmosphere! The salmon with risotto was perfectly prepared and server Martin was friendly, professional and patient. Will certainly return!“

“We love this location! Great service every time. Delicious food & amazing cocktails. We bring the kiddos too and they are so good and understanding with them“

“Roma's is my absolute favorite pizza place. I've ordered religiously for about 8 months now, I think. My favorite is the Margherita, but I love the plain cheese or pepperoni. I am NEVER disappointed. It arrives hot and fresh with beautiful presentation. Very tasty 😋 Their prices are budget friendly too.“

“the vibe inside is really homey. the price point is great. I was able to comfortably order a few things to try. I also think the portions were good. the duck ragu was very good. I enjoyed that plate very much. the sauce pairs with the duck very well. it's fork licking good. the carbonara I didn't care for, I didn't finish it. it didn't taste quite balanced. also my pasta was under cooked. I checked to see if maybe I was given buccatini on accident but no, it was just underdone spaghetti. overall, I'll try it again. my experience I think was good for a first visit“

“Amazing how some restaurants have such small menus but this defines the idea that they don't NEED to offer quantity, simply fantastic, DEFINITELY on the loud side but rad atmosphere and it was out of mind virtually from the jump, fantastic time in every way, SHALL MOST CERTAINLY RETURN...great memories❤️“

“Nice change of pace for our Italian food urge! Redfish, clams w/fettuccine, lobster special, chicken parm and spinach lasagna...everything was great sans the calamari. Wine list was well organized and curated. Fun birthday celebration to top off the evening!“

“Always terrific! One of my favorite Dallas restaurants.“

“Via Triozzi in Lower Greenville was an amazing dinner experience. I went with friends who go often and had been hyping it up, and it absolutely lived up to the praise. The menu is fantastic, the vibes inside the restaurant are warm and lively, and everything feels thoughtfully done.
Our server was incredible- extremely knowledgeable about the menu, answered all of our questions, and made great recommendations, including wine pairings that were spot on.
The food is on the pricier side, but I expected that going in, and the quality completely justified it. Everything tasted fresh and homemade. The specialty cocktails were also very good, and the tiramisu truly lived up to the hype. I’d go back just for that alone.
We ordered multiple pasta dishes and shared around the table, and every single one was excellent.
This is an ideal spot for a date night or a special dinner with great food and drinks.
Reservations are definitely needed, valet parking is free (which helps since parking in the area can be tough), and the staff really makes the experience memorable.
I’ll make it a point to come back every time I’m in Dallas- wish I could try everything on the menu.“

“We just visited for the first time. Nik was our server and did a fabulous job. The atmosphere was amazing , beautiful live music, and amazing food ! Definitely a place we will go again! The only thing that dampered the mood a bit was another server. While she was a gorgeous and stunning young lady, her attitude and unprofessional display on dining room floor directed at our server, and noticed by all in attendance, was appalling. These types of acts can ruin a beautiful atmosphere and the reputation of your business. Definitely needs to be addressed!“

“I wanted my pasta order without pasta - for keto / gluten free purposes. They accommodated, were patient with me (going outside of their normal process) , built rapport, and made me want to come back again.

Working the counter on 7/16/26 - absolutely amazing!“

“Thank you, thank you, thank you! Manager Anthony “made it right” when Uber Eats “made it wrong”. The pizza was fantastic! Vegan+Gluten Free. I am so glad they are not only making this type of pizza, but they are making it fantastically! 🤩😍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Authentic, whole ingredients and top-notch Neapolitan cooking techniques that will make your Italian-loving heart swoon. We love everything about eating here including pizza dough that was blistered/crunchy on the edges while delicately soft on the inside and topped with high quality toppings. The pizza alone will give us cravings to return often! The pesto and prosciutto were the best quality!“

“This was the best meal I’ve had in a long time. The food was amazing. Our server on nonna side was also great. Unfortunately, the server on the speak easy side was complete slime. He brought (and charged me) for a drink I did not order (or want since I had a long drive home) he also overcharged another guest in our party. Everything else was absolutely spectacular. The band last night was stellar.“

“You are the pizza I've been looking for! That perfect crust, that flavorful sauce, that just the right amount of everything! THANK YOU!!“

“My family loves MoMo Italian Kitchen! From the relaxing ambiance w a child friendly yard to excellent, consistently yummy food, it can’t be beat!“

“Everything was delicious. A Big thank you to our server who recommend the tortellini is was fantastic!!“

“First time visiting Ambruzzo's, and I cannot stop raving about it! The service was excellent, and the food was absolutely incredible. I had the Blackened Salmon on a bed of veggies and Alfredo pasta on the side. It was excellent! Not to mention, Karina's service was stellar. I will certainly be returning. If you have driven by, do yourself a favor and stop by. The food, service, and sangrias will make this an Oak Cliff favorite.“

“Food was amazing!! Definitely takes me back to Italy. Wish I lived closer!!“

“Here in town for the HOSA INTERNATIONAL LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE, my students and I fell in love with this place. Their mock cocktails are nice!“

“Some of the best food I have ever eaten! Thank you for the amazing experience!“

“In Dallas for two nights only. Wife wanted Italian for dinner. Started a small search on local restaurants and found this gem! Impeccable freshly curated Italian food with awesome service. Food was top notch and priced below normal thresholds for the quality represented. Nice dinner with my wife to end a long day. Give this restaurant a try! You will be a customer for life. Wished lived closer!“

“Cremona Bistro, hit it out of the park on our company holiday lunch! Silvia Rosewood Hotel Group thanks You & the Team!“

“Had a great time! Food was delicious and the staff was excellent! I recommend their grilled chicken dish, it’s amazing! Great atmosphere as well. Cozy and classy!“

“Luis was an amazing server and made our experience wonderful. He was very attentive and never left our drinks empty. The food was very tasty and fresh. We ordered the bruschetta, fried provolone, rigatoni, shrimp pasta and salmon pesto pasta and tiramisu and it was all so delicious! We will definitely be coming back and asking for Luis.“

“fresh food and tasty! good atmosphere“

“Soooo much delicious food at a great price!!!“

“I Love Everything About This Restaurant!! Everyone Is Very Nice !! The Food Is Always Fresh And Delicious!! My Favorite Is The Calzone!! Omg Soooooo Gooooood !! My Sons And I Would Go There Almost Every Day !!“

“We love Zio Cecio! We have gone here for all 5 of our anniversary dinners, and we will continue that tradition forever. Such a wonderful place! The food and atmosphere are incredible, and the owner, Francesco, is such a sweet man. Could not recommend this place enough!!“

“I bought a delicious spinach and feta ravioli with tomato cream sauce. Best fresh pasta in Dallas!“

“Pasta was cooked Al dente and tilapia was moist inside and crispy outside. Shrimp were a little bit over cooked to my taste. Salad was fresh and the house salad is my favorite. I recommend it.“

“Good pizza. Good cookies. Good rolls. Best lasagna I have ever bought at any place. Highly recommend.“

“I had an incredible experience with my recent delivery order! I have a very specific pizza request, and Tommy and Brandon, the general manager and manager, went above and beyond. They both called me to ensure my pizza was made exactly how I like it. That level of dedication to customer satisfaction is truly outstanding. The pizza was perfect, and their attention to detail made all the difference. PT is very lucky to have them on their team !! kudos to Tommy and Brandon“

“Came here for the first time on my husband's birthday and was blown away by our experience. Our server, Raoul, and the entire staff went above and beyond to make it a special evening--from a card signed by the staff to a birthday candle + complimentary night cap, we truly felt honored and celebrated. Cocktails were excellent and there were so many delicious-looking dishes on the menu it was hard to choose! We landed on the rabbit pappardelle and a duck leg special, both of which were cooked to perfection and plated beautifully. Far from your typical dinner fare, we were truly impressed by the complexity of the flavors and the level of care in the execution. The atmosphere was stylish, sophisticated, and romantic with great music and thoughtful lighting. Can't recommend this place enough and very much look forward to returning to celebrate special occasions for years to come. Our warmest thanks to the entire staff!“

“8 of us went there to celebrate my son’s graduation. Atmosphere was cozy & relaxed. Amber was very attentive & quick in her services. We all “cleaned up” our pasta dishes - it was that good! Two of us had pizzas & they were delicious too.“

“Such great food and service! The menu is unique. I love the fig bruschetta & the fig and Gorgonzola pizza .“

“So we happen to notice this place across the street from my buddies apartment. Today we stopped in and order a little bit of everything. The creamy chicken soup was delicious, pasta was simple but also delicious. We ended with the crab cakes and I was so stuffed I only had 2 bites but it was worth it. Stacy was our server and she did a great job from recommendations to attentiveness. I think we just found a new go to by the house. $56 dollar for 2 grown men is a bargain for what we got. Thank you“

“I visited Casa Pollastro yesterday and loved it. The service and food were all wonderful. I recommend everyone to visit.“

“It’s a friendly atmosphere with great food.“

“They customer service is great, the food is awesome, the place is very clean. Nice setting for date night. Mrs. Cassandra was great & her drinks from the bar man say just get there. I love the news I heard about the owner. They been there 42 years & counting.“

“I've been meaning to try this restaurant and am glad my family and I finally did. Our waiter gave some recommendations and glad we listened, the food was excellent and especially the rigatoni. They don't have a kids menu, but were still able to accommodate the kiddos with a personal size pizza and smaller portion of pasta using whichever noodle or sauce we requested.“
