Mille Lire Dallas

Mille Lire, one of the best Italian restaurants in Dallas, brings a serious culinary pedigree and menu of Italian classics by TV and Michelin Star chef Giuliano Matarese. Matarese brings 20 years of restaurant industry experience. Born and raised in Italy, he got his start in his grandmother’s Naples restaurant before coming to the states and spending time at Convivio and Charlie Palmer’s Aureole in New York City. He’s also made many appearances on food TV shows, including Chopped and Beat Bobby Flay.

Mille Lire promises a constantly-changing menu of regional Italian cuisine. And is a nod to “la dolce vita,” or “the sweet life,” of Chef Matarese's childhood in Italy. Diners can look forward to antipasti, along with pizzas fired in an Italian oven and pastas made fresh daily with an imported pasta-maker. Outside of the carb-laden options, entrees include chianti-braised short ribs, diver scallops with cauliflower puree, octopus, and much more.

A full menu of beer, wine, and hand-crafted cocktails will keep diners from going thirsty - offering an extensive beer and wine list featuring Italian offerings as well as local and domestic brands.
