    Great ambiance, Amazing and tasty food Great service. Beautiful view and classy location!

    Lumache rigate - very good

    Loved everything about this restaurant! The food was tasty, fresh and came out hot and fresh. The service was exceptional, our waitress explained the menu well and was attentive. The fritto misto was the perfect amount of crispiness. The lumache was saucy like it like it and had just the right amount of spice. The chicken Parmesan was a nice size and flavorful. Lastly, the margaritas went down with ease per my guy. Plus, we sat outside and the sunset it was romantic. We will be back.

    During our stay at Loews Hotels, I decided to order dinner to-go since this restaurant was inside the hotel on the first floor. I went downstairs and placed my order with the hostesses and was told to come back in 20 minutes. I went back to our room to get some work done before heading back down. It was ready to be pick it up at the bar once I arrived. I ordered two items: arugula and fennel salad - bland and unflavored even with the vinaigrette, and a pappardelle pasta - extremely salty and the pasta was grainy. Very disappointed with both dishes and couldn't justify the prices of the items. Loved the romantic ambiance and the bar outside of the restaurant. It's a great spot to grab a drink if you're not planning to go inside to have dinner.

    What an absolute dream! To start, the restaurant is beautiful! There is a patio extension for when the weather is nice and the kitchen is open so you can see the magic happening. The service was incredible and super knowledgeable of what is coming out of the kitchen. But most importantly, the FOOD was TO DIE FOR! House made pasta is always a win.. but the sauce was so memorable that I will dream of it in sleeps to come. The menu says spicy (but it wasn't spicy to where it was anything but just flavorful- side note: my toddler loved it). The calzone was perfectly crispy and filled with the perfect balance of meat & ricotta. It came with a big bowl of marinara in case you wanted to douce your bite in their rich red sauce. So excited to come back and try another dish soon.

    What a margarita pizza (pictured on their website is supposed to look like).

    First off, it's located inside a hotel, which I didn't realize until we were almost there, after driving 50 minutes specifically to try it. I came for the pizza: the dough and marinara were good, but they topped it with a cold white cheese (stracciatella) that cooled the entire pizza down quickly, was gross, and ruined it. I would have ordered a regular cheese pizza had I known their margherita doesn't use the standard mozzarella you'd typically expect, especially since their website shows a traditional margherita, which is not at all what I received. My husband ordered the lumache rigate, and it also came with the same cold white cheese in the middle, which made the dish lose its heat almost immediately, and again, the cheese was not good. I had high hopes for this place, but it ended up being a big disappointment. To top it off, valet took 24 minutes to bring our car around. Overall, not a great experience, and unfortunately, we won't be back.

    This is a restaurant that I tried in the Loews hotel after a long travel day. The service was very friendly! The food was delicious as well. I had the pasta and the focaccia with the blue cheese. I enjoyed both. It was pretty restaurant with plenty of seating! I would love to come again!

    What incredible service first management cave sat us down in the best location then we really weren't that hungry but we wanted to small snack. We had the beet salad which was incredible. The best salad I've ever had. The ambience is impeccable. The service was incredible. Definitely a place to come if you're in Dallas especially if you're going to see a concert or baseball or football game.

    Was in the mood for Italian food and had no idea we would stumble on gem. Talk about feeling underdressed for a fancy dinner at the Loews hotel lol.... Luckily it was Sunday evening and no one was in restaurant but us.... A win! I knew when the server brought out the BAGNA CAUDA we were in for a good night. I asked for garlic bread and this was sooooo much better. The taste of garlic and anchovies or whatever else was in that little saucer was amazing!!! We then order two pastas.... The LUMACHE RIGATE add shrimp 10/10 and the PAPPADELLE 10/10. Everything was so good that I can't wait to come back and try more of the menu. I'm actually looking forward to trying the pizza!

    Chicken parm

    Everything from beginning to end was a 5.0 star experience. If you're ever skeptical of restaurants attached to a hotel, do not skip out on Farena! Ambiance: warm, welcoming, not too noisy. Staff: incredibly friendly and accommodating. They go above and beyond for their customers. Our waiter, Andre, was THE best! Food: I had the chicken parm and it was incredible! The portion was a generous size for $36. The flavor of both the chicken and the sauce was out of this world. Definitely one of the best! I asked for easy mozzarella cheese and they delivered in that request. Overall: a very pleasant experience! Highly recommend.

    When you give a 20 minute wait time it, should be close to 20 minutes, not 60. Would've gone elsewhere.

    It's so nice to have a late night food option that's actually open late and isn't your typical fast…read morefood. Zio Al's is open until 3am and they have beautiful, hot, cheesy pizzas, pasta, calzones, and sub sandwiches. And wings and tenders! And great salads, french fries, breadsticks, a Zaatar wrap and Zaatar pizza. Halal options (they use beef products in place of pork) and veggie options. They don't currently have gluten free pizza crust or pasta, but they do have fresh, crunchy, customizable salads that are delicious. I'm all about a Greek salad or a grilled chicken Caesar salad, hold the croutons. Salad might not sound as appealing as fried jalapeño poppers or a meatball lovers pizza at 2 in the morning, but these salads are sizable with good produce and plenty of dressing. Can't complain too much! PS: If you find yourself at Hooligan's Pub around the corner, you can order food directly from Zio Al's to enjoy there.

    Came here with high hopes and left not even eating past a few bites of everything which is super…read morerare for me bc I love to eat. I got a gyro pizza and what I got was a cracker crust. I thought it was going to be like New York pizza, not a crunchy wheat thin crust with salad haphazardly tossed on top. My friend got a ham and pineapple pizza, it was okay, crust dint taste like anything. She also got ravioli and I wasn't a fan. I got a Greek salad which was good though! We ended up taking the food back but I didn't even eat it later, disappointing. I get why this place is popular it's in a college town and portions are large, prices are decent. I think I'm just spoiled being in California. Service was great, the for helping us answered our questions
