Simply wonderful. There really is no substitute for good, handmade ingredients created and served by people who love what they do. Get yourself on the wait list to go at least once, you don’t want to miss it.

Food and service is always exceptional, Osteria il Muro is serving some of the best food in DFW. Seasonal menu changes mean there is always something new to try. Everything is made in house, from the cultured butter and focaccia, to the cured meats, pasta and gelato. If you love food you will love Osteria il Muro.

Definitely need to come back for dinner sooner than later but was happy to see and snag a sandwich for one of their Friday lunch pop ups. Made with their fresh made focaccia bread! Enjoyed a porchetta

What an absolutely incredible experience! From the moment we walked in we were welcomed, our table was ready for our reservation, and everyone was so kind. The menu was a bit daunting, as I had never heaed a few of the words on the menu, but Victoria did an amazing job of explaining the options on the menu and was extremely helpful with our dietary restrictions at the table (gluten free and pescatarian). The food was incredible, super fresh and vibrant, and my only complaint is that I didn't leave room for desert! Genuinely a 5 star dining experience, I cannot reccomend this lovely place enough. I'm sure that all of the staff are amazing in their own right, but if you're fortunate enough to have Victoria for the evening, be prepared for a wealth of knowledge. We will be going back as soon as we can, it's worth fighting for a reservation and certainly worth the money.Dietary restrictions: They have a few different options for people with dietary restrictions that are explained very well by staff and are just as amazing as everything else on the menu.
This place is amazing!! Our server (forgive me, I cannot remember her name at the moment - probably because I had a glass of bubbly), was super hospitable, friendly, and knowledgeable. She thoroughly walked through the details of the menu without making us feel out of place or dumb. Very attentive and you could tell she just knows her stuff and is passionate about the restaurant. Made great recommendations and helped us feel comfortable.The food blew us away. We had the focaccia and squash blossoms as starters. My husband had the rabbit sausage pasta and I had the vegetarian pasta dish with ricotta and wild onions. We had the coconut gelato for dessert. Everything tasted WONDERFUL and the attention to detail was impressive. I wish I would've taken pictures, but I was in the moment enjoying the whole experience.General manager James came by at the end to check in, and was also so friendly and knowledgeable - again, we just felt so comfortable throughout our dining experience. Everyone here we interacted with seems so passionate about the place and you can tell it's well ran and they really care.We loved our time here and can't wait to go back! You will 100% enjoy your time here.Vegetarian options: 3/7 main courses were vegetarian at the time we went.Dietary restrictions: Vegetarian friendly, and vegan friendly if you give advance notice.Parking: Parking on the street out front, also a parking lot on the side/back of the restaurant. Plenty of parking when we went at 5:00.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible entrance ramp
*Went Summer 2022*One of the best Italian spots I've been to. I live in Dallas, but this was definitely worth the drive. This place meets the definition of a true gem. You get a quaint, charming house that serves as the actual restaurant. The staff is warm and inviting while the interior vibes are cozy and quaint. The food itself is incredible. The menu is dated so they change it daily most likely.This restaurant makes the best bread I've ever had. 100% order their sourdough focaccia. My bolognese pasta was perfect, but the red fish (a special they had that night) was my favorite dish. That fish was so warm, soft and flavorful. The chocolate budino dessert was delicious.I've been to a lot of Italian restaurants in Dallas. This spot, which is in Denton, is top 3 for sure. In fact, I have it in my top 2. Be sure to reserve in advance! Apparently when they release reservations online, they go rather fast. I got lucky and checked when someone had cancelled, so we got a table! I did see that every other day that month was completely sold out. This was my first time going. I'll 100% be returning again!
Absolutely worth the visit. Everything was amazing from all the appetizers to the main dish, and even the wine pairing to was spot on. after visiting one time quickly made reservations to go back for another and it’s so great that the menu changes so it’s a surprise each
Food was amazing, the staff were professional and enjoyable. Overall outstanding establishment.

This was a great time!!The food was absolutely delicious and the waiter was very nice... they cover the menu in detail because the dishes are authentic Italian, and I just don't know the lingo ?It was almost impossible to get reservations due to the size of the venue...but if you can get a table, I highly recommend the experience...its pricey due to the fact everything is made from scratch...no pasta from a box here!!The Foccacia bread is TO DIE FOR!!

They make us feel like we are part of their family at Osteria Il Muro. The food is flavor punch after flavor punch- a delight to the senses. We take our time with every bite. Chef is one of a kind- a great culinary mind and all-around nice guy. The manager gives, hands-down, the best customer service I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. The servers have a sparkle in their eyes when they talk about the food. You cannot make a wrong selection on the ever-changing menu. We are so grateful for our experiences here.
