Terribly disappointed… wine list out of date… out of first choice, out of 2nd choice. Salad was good (how can you mess up a salad)… pasta was served cold. Would not recommend

First time eating at this location since the move from design district. The ambience and decor is nice. But the food from the kitchen was very slow. There was a long period of downtime btwn each course. The meatball and tuna tartar dish were both flavorful and nice. Enjoyed the halibut too. Was not a fan of some of the newer menu items we tried.

Went with work colleagues and had a fantastic time. Jose, our server, was phenomenal; paid close attention to dietary restrictions and made wonderful recommendations. Shared the honey and mushroom pizzas and didn’t have a slice left. The pasta entrees were fresh and delicious. Jose’s wine recommendations were spot on. And a sampling of each dessert was shared and enjoyed by all. Definitely recommend!

Service was great. Location in downtown Dallas was a plus. We could walk to it from our hotel on Commerce Street. Food was delicious & had unique flavors. Martini was so-so. Restaurant was a little noisy, but it was full, so that made sense. All in all very good and I would recommend it to friends traveling to Dallas

Sassetta Italian Restaurant was a very memorable experience. From the time you walked through the door, we were welcomed by the amazing staff and the service was impeccable. The food was of great quality- we really enjoyed the red snapper. Overall, we would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a romantic Italian restaurant. We will be back!
