50 Best Italian Restaurants in Dallas

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

“Impeccable service and unbelievable delicious food!“

“Lucia’s is one of my favorite dining experiences in Dallas. As a pescatarian, I appreciated that there were plenty of delicious options to choose from. So I never felt limited. My favorite course was the bass. It was perfectly cooked, flavorful, and easily the standout of the meal. To top it all off, dessert was a perfect ending. It was the kind of meal that leaves you looking forward to your next visit.“

“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.“

“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.“

“The food/ service is outstanding and the vibe is modern with a high end atmosphere 🌷“

“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!“

“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.“

“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“

“The food... EXCELLENCE!!!🍴🍷🍴“

“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“

“What an absolutely fantastic Italian-American restaurant. I was pleasantly surprised by how great the pasta was.

Started with the fried calamari and whipped ricotta with garlic bread. The whipped ricotta is an absolute must order and I’ll definitely be getting that again. The calamari was good, but pretty standard fried calamari, although I loved the addition of the chilis.

The portions are absolutely massive, so it’s very easy to share dishes. I got the spaghetti and meatballs and they were an absolute delight. The meatballs were juicy, seasoned perfectly, and had a great texture. You can tell they’re freshly made and use quality meat. Others at my table got the Chicken Parm Vodka and Tortellini Vodka, and both were rich, creamy, and delicious. The Chicken Parm portion was especially huge.

The food here is a 10/10 and I’ll be telling everyone to come here for some great Italian food.

The restaurant itself is charming. The booths are huge and I loved all the photos and paintings on the walls. The Kingdom of Italy flag caught my eye too. Once the sun went down, the atmosphere really started to come alive.

There are a few things I think Barsotti’s could improve on. The bussers seemed a little underdressed for this type of restaurant, and some of their shirts were stained. We were also celebrating a birthday and specifically mentioned it in the reservation, so I was hoping for some acknowledgment. Our waiter was very nice and respectful, but I would have liked a little more interaction and explanation of the menu.

Overall, the positives definitely outweigh the negatives. I’ll be coming back and would recommend Barsotti’s to others.“

“Nonna! My love. There was nothing bad here, nothing mid, all superb!! How do I begin to explain how delicious everything was?! Their house bread was salted, soft and immediately made us think of how delicious the pizza dough and crust would be. And of course that was the case. We went with the spicy sausage pizza and it was so good I nearly licked the pizza tray but I was with three other people and was not trying to look crazy. Their squash carpaccio was really good for squash. For pastas we tried Lasagnette al Forno, Tonnarelli Cacio e Pepe, and Farfalle Marrone. I’m a picky eater but the mushroom one was the best in my opinion, tonnarelli next and then the lasagna. I’m not a huge tomato sauce person but lasagna was tasty. Now the dessert!! Their pistachio semifreddo was the best possible was to end the night. There was not a flaw in that dessert. I’d go back just for that. Their strawberry shortcake was good and then lemon raspberry last. I’m not a huge tart person but not bad on the lemon raspberry.

Everyone in Dallas should try this place. So wonderful“

“We had a wonderful dinner experience at Sachet. We started at the bar with a Mahon Gin cocktail and were seated shortly thereafter. Loved the roasted carrot/hummus swirl with hot pitas and the mozzarella with grilled stone fruit was delicious. Jenny, our server, was outstanding. Our red fish/broccolini/grilled shishito special was fantastic. Loved the wine list (Tablas Creek Patelin de Tablas!) and the Amaro. Very enjoyable evening!“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“Right when you think pizza is pizza - here comes Mister01 with a very delicious and unique pizza! GREAT ingredients. FANTASTIC crust! We tried & loved the Star Luca & Hawaiana pizzas. We also thoroughly enjoyed the Laura salad. Portions were huge, and we have dinner for tomorrow. Try the spicey olive oil on your pizza. The staff is the BEST! First class operation indeed. Aidan was our server - and was so polite, knowledgeable, had solid recommendations - and made the already great experience even better!! We will be regulars! Thanks!!“

“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❤️“

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

“Absolutely loved Via Triozzi. Very friendly and knowledgable staff. Warm and cozy atmosphere. My whole group was amazed by the quality and flavors of the food, very reminiscent of meals we’ve had in our favorite restaurants in Italy. Especially loved the ricotta squash and the veal. Looking forward to coming back, especially when the rooftop area is open. Oh, and appreciated the free valet parking.“

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

“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!“

“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.“

“Amazing experience! Patrice and LaDairas were great and provided excellent service throughout our visit. The staff was welcoming, attentive, and made the whole experience even better.

The atmosphere is definitely one of the highlights. The dark décor, exposed brick, wine display, vintage clock, and classic artwork give the restaurant a really cool old-school mafia-style vibe. There are plenty of great spots for pictures, and the restaurant has a classy but relaxed feel.

The food was delicious and beautifully presented. We had salmon, shrimp, creamy rice, and green beans, and everything looked and tasted amazing. The drinks and wine were also excellent and went perfectly with the meal. 🍷🍸

It’s also very family-friendly. We brought our two kids, and they really enjoyed themselves, which made the experience even better for us.

Great food, great drinks, beautiful atmosphere, delicious desserts, and amazing service from Patrice & LaDairas. Definitely a place we would come back to and recommend!“

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

“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!“

“Kenya was amazing! Definitely recommend requesting her, she was vibrant and bubbly and had a Great knowledge of the menu.

The Baked ziti was delicious and a huge portion.

Husband and client got the Chicken Parmesan and they also loved their dishes!

Try to calamari, it's a healthy portion and the spicy remoulade was good!

It is a bit small, so the noise level can be a bit of an issue if you're tender to that, but we were able to talk and hear eachother well.

Highly recommend and you have to try it!“

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

“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“

“Great experience.friendly service“

“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!“

“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.“
