Chef/owner Antonio MoMo grew up in Italy, where his mother was a noted cooking authority.Momo's Italian Specialties is plain on the outside, but brightly decorated inside with potted plants and lighted aquariums.

The aroma of delicious pizzas is difficult to ignore, especially when you are passing by the popular Downtown Dallas Italian restaurant and pizzeria Partenope Ristorante! Dino Santonicola, the Naples-born head chef, makes sure that every detail of the food, right from the pizza crusts, to the loaves of bread used in the monster sandwiches, to the sauces used in the mouth-watering pastas, bring in the nostalgia of the olden Italian days. The blue-walled restaurant is carefully decorated with beautiful paintings, which complements the intimate vibe of the restaurant lit up by yellow lights. Do try the popular Napoli Centrale pizza which is filled with mozzarella and Bolognese sauce, with the Spaghetti Alla Carbonara pasta, a combination made in heaven! Top it up with their beers, cocktails or specially curated Italian wines. The Partenope Ristorante is the go-to place to satisfy your Italian appetite.
