Best Italian Restaurants in NW Dallas / Love Field Area

Christmas tradition in this family owned and operated restaurant. Always a delightful experience. Holiday service is slow but always worth waiting for.

Went Xmas eve. They graciously accommodated a last minute add on to our party. It’s nice and dark but you can see- very good old- person lighting. They offer excellent food and drinks. We ordered family style. Lemon pasta, carrots, and meatballs were the best. Salmon was cooked perfectly, a simple dish. We got prompt and attentive but not overbearing service-top notch. The bartenders were incredibly efficient while we waited for our table- considering how busy they were. That all said, something about it was lacking in a special experience. Perhaps I’d try on a quieter evening when I’m better rested with a well-charged social battery.

We were recently turned on to Monaco by some friends and after our first time, we knew were coming back! The food is SO tasty, the service is excellent, and the ambiance is nice and not super noisy, so it is easy to talk. The calabrian shrimp pasta and the bucatini are both excellent. The Caesar salad and wedge salad are good. The beignets and apple tart are super tasty desserts. We know our friends loved the chicken milanese and salmon dishes. The staff also works hard to help pair wines. So, this place is "money." We will be back!

We had the Prosciutto Bruschetta and it was mouth-watering!! after that, we opted for 2 pasta dishes...Bolognese Pappardelle, & Genovese Rigatoni. Both were spot on! My only regret was we didn't get a pizza!!!

Francesco and his team ALWAYS deliver the best Italian experience.
