"Another spot perfectly geared for delicious salads is Sprezza. Try octopus and pickled peppers on micro greens, or their version of a chopped salad with salumi, pecorino toscano, egg, olives, and beets. Diners who’ve chosen healthy options can justify rewarding themselves with a side of fried olives from the appetizer section, they can’t be missed." - Alaena Hostetter, Rachel Pinn

We chose this place based on its reviews, and it did not disappoint. Immaculate and seating accommodations that allowed for social distancing made us feel very comfortable from the start. The portion sizes were adequate for sharing, and the menu had a variety of items. Also, make sure to enjoy their house cocktails along with a large selection of some. Staff was friendly and attentive.

I would give Sprezza more than five stars if I could. I am simply baffled by what some of the negative reviews said. Chef Ryan and his staff are amazing! From the hostess, to the wait staff to the people that filled our water glasses and bussed our tables, they were all fantastic. When we told our waiter (David) that it was our first visit he took the time to go through every item on the menu and explain what everything was and answer each of our questions. When the food came out it only got better. All of us at the table shared and made it family style and there was not a single item we didn’t like - and we ate a lot!!! If I had to pick a favorite or two from what we had I would choose the ravioli with Sunday gravy and the salmon. Even the non-seafood eater of the group picked salmon as his favorite. And the desserts.....oh my! I will definitely be going back to try other items on the menu as I’m sure they will be just as good as everything we had on our first visit. Thanks to everyone at Sprezza for a wonderful dining experience!

I was never an big fan of Italian food - but Sprezza changed that. Food is very good and very fresh. The chef accommodates most reasonable requests, wine paring is also very good, and the service is also great. We were lucky to get Kaatie (I think I spelled it right) every time and she is very very good. Enjoy.

Fresh ingredients, home made pasta, daily menu, trendy ambience, friendly services, delicious... many reasons for a 5 star rating. Interesting to observe that menu for wines are displayed in a non conventional manner.. by price categories; and menu lacks translation and description.... Definitely need a knowledgeable staffs to highlight what to order.. else may be a little lost. Great thing is they have resourceful and friendly staffs.

Great service and delicious food. We just walked in (7 of us: 5 adults, 2 kids) on a Sunday early evening thinking we could get a table since it was an early dinner (5:30PM). Little did we know, they were completely booked and were not able to take in any walk-ins; however, they gave us the table that they had reserved for the owner. Everything we had there was great too. I had the sweet potato gnocchi which was excellent. For dessert, I had tiramisu which I would be honest and say that I've had better ones elsewhere, but it was not bad. I would definitely go back.

Oh Sprezza. How I love you. This place is amazing, the only thing that keeps us from going more is how hard it is to get a reservation. So, make sure to make a reservation weeks in advance if you can. Or they have open bar seating but it's only about 10 spots. Cocktails - Great, not too sweet, good variety Wines - great selection, focuses on Roman region, all wines are price conscious but still great quality - most bottles are $40-65 FOOD - Just phenomenal. The pasta is freshly made every day and is cooked perfectly al dente. Their salads are so unique and the crostini is always well done. Their menu is seasonal and changes quite often which I love but also is sad when you find something you love so much... like the lump crab crostini. All in all, this place is a must try and a new Dallas staple.

The food and service at Sprezza was great but unfortunately I developed food poisoning shortly after dining in last night. I called to explain the situation in case others would come down with the same illness. The hostess replied that she would inform the staff, didn't ask for a name or phone number, which I thought was odd. Hopefully no one else got sick because of outdated ingredients.

Wanted to try it because really close by. Atmosphere is great, service was fantastic. Food was really good, menu is simple, just ask your waiter to explain it, our waiter did a good job going over what each dish were. More of a special occasions place rather than a go have a meal place.
