In fantastic news for downtown Dallas and Italian food fans everywhere, it's the much anticipated (and relocated) comeback of Sassetta, opening at the Joule hotel at 1530 Main St. in downtown Dallas. According to a release, it'll open on April 8, dinner only at first, with the addition of lunch to follow.

This is a second life for Sassetta, the restaurant founded by Tim Headington, CEO of Headington Companies, which first opened in the Dallas Design District in 2017. It closed during the pandemic and will now be located at the Joule, in the space previously occupied by Americano, another Italian restaurant, great in its own right, which also closed during the pandemic.
