Downtown Dallas is getting a new Italian restaurant this fall. The authentic southern Italian concept from Dino and Megan Santonicola will open in a historic building at 1901 Main Street, Suite 102. Dino, a master pizzaiolo and chef from Naples, will be cooking up Neapolitan-style pizzas and pastas in the Titche-Goettinger building.
Partenope Ristorante will be the husband and wife team’s first restaurant. Dino discovered his passion for cooking at just 13 years old, while living in the Spanish Quarter of Naples, Italy. After receiving formal training from the Italian Culinary Institute, he perfected his skills by working in restaurants and pizzerias all throughout Naples.
