A word from Ristorante Nicola

Ristorante Nicola serves authentic, hand-crafted Italian cuisine using recipes and cooking methods developed over centuries. Its sleek interior is a dreamy combination of contemporary design and timeless elements. An open kitchen lends a theatrical component to your dining experience, and two… private dining rooms allow groups of 14 to 50 to entertain in the abundant manner of La Bella Italia. For great people watching and cocktails, visit the gorgeous loggia for the most glorious outdoor seating area in the Park Cities. Continued

"A really nice Italian restaurant. The noise level is never overwhelming, so you can hear the conversation at your table. Staff helpful. Great food. We have had dinner here a number of times, even celebrated my husband's 65th birthday here with friends. It is always a pleasant eveing."

"Don't let the beauty of this remarkably attractive restaurant distract you from how well they do with what's on the plate. On my third visit recently, I had the New York strip and found it absolutely delicious -- and Nicola is not a steakhouse; Italian fare is the specialty! This is another sign of the quality that comes out of the kitchen here."
