"Suited for a romantic lunch or dinner out, il Bracco pairs a fresh menu of Italian fare made in house with a sophisticated dining space. Plush banquettes in the dining room are just as great for people-watching as they are for snuggling up to your date, and dishes like the bolognese, NY strip steak, and eggplant parm are substantial enough to share." - Brianna Griff
"This Dallas-based restaurant has an outpost on Post Oak Boulevard in Uptown, and it’s every bit as much a scene as it is and fun. A modern menu of Italian eats features things like Sicilian crudo, burrata salad, and Italian beef served with au jus. Diners can also find a mouthwatering pasta list, all made fresh in-house. The mid-century-style dining room, with its cozy booths and dim lighting, makes this a foolproof bet for date night, too." - Marcy de Luna
"The Italian restaurant represents its home in Uptown’s Post Oak Plaza with its Plaza Salad, a colorful mix of golden beets, pancetta, Marcona almonds, and goat cheese, topped with roasted chicken and a honey vinaigrette. Visit its nearby sister seafood restaurant, Balboa Surf Club (1753 Post Oak Boulevard), to try its Post Oak vaquero-spiced prime rib-eye, served with potato puree." - Brittany Britto Garley

"Diners don’t typically go to an Italian restaurant for a good burger, but this Dallas import has a true gem on its menu. Made with house-ground chuck, this juicy burger is topped with aged provolone, Calabrian chilies for spice, and then arugula, fennel, and red onions for a perfect balance of punchy freshness that helps cut through the pleasant fattiness of the burger," - Brittany Britto Garley
