"Partenope is a pretty great Italian restaurant downtown where you’ll find the best pizza in Dallas. The Naples-born chef is arguably the city’s biggest name in pizza (and even won gold for his craft), and the Neapolitan pies come out with perfectly charred, airy crusts that let toppings shine. Go for the classic margherita with creamy, slightly tangy mozzarella that balances out the acidity from crushed tomatoes, or the Tridente doubled up with hot soppressata and Italian sausage. Dishes like zucchini fritters drizzled in honey and octopus on a cannellini spread with lemon zest are worth a visit on their own, but they also make great sidekicks to the nearly perfect pies." - kevin gray
