First Look: Tarantino’s Cicchetti Bar and Record Lounge in Deeper Than Deep

Peter Tarantino refers to his new Italian food restaurant just across from Fair Park, south of Deep Ellum, as “in the Twilight Zone, deeper than deep." If you only ever visit this area in the fall for the fair, or after a show at Fair Park, it might be time to rethink that plan.

Tarantino’s Cicchetti Bar and Record Lounge is the latest addition to a handful of restaurants and bars along Parry Avenue just across from the DART station. There’s Craft and Growler on one end, Tarantino’s and Las Almas Rotas all bookended by Expo Park Pizza Lounge. Around the corner is Eight Bells Alehouse, Whiskey’s, Noble Coyote Coffee Roasters and the live music venue Sandaga 813.
