We arrived a bit early for our reservation and were warmly invited to grab a drink at the bar such a great start to the evening. We tried the Tequila Mockingbird and O Sole Mio. Both were delicious, but the Mockingbird was the clear winner for us. The O Sole Mio definitely brings the heat, so it's perfect if you enjoy a spicy kick! While we were waiting, we were chatting about what we ordered on a previous visit, and a waiter named Victor overheard us and jumped in with some recommendations which turned out to be fantastic. Once seated, our waitress Adrian took over, and she was absolutely phenomenal. To start, we had the charred octopus and the za'atar focaccia(the serving is huge) both were incredible. For mains, we shared the white amatriciana, which was slightly salty for our taste but still enjoyable. The true star of the night, though, was the wagyu short rib, it literally melted in our mouths. From start to finish, the service was exceptional. Everyone, from the host and bartender to the food runners and busser checked in on us, making the experience feel thoughtful and attentive. Huge shoutout to Adrian for her service and Victor for his spot-on recommendations. We hadn't been back in a while, and we couldn't stop talking about it all night. Such a delicious, romantic date night,we'll definitely be back. read more

Sister Restaurant - Italian Near Me - Dallas, Texas

The Dallas food scene may be one of the most consistently satisfying scenes. I'd be lying if I said I would have believed that had someone told me. It's either that or I just have damn good taste. I'm thinking it's the latter. Banger after banger, this town does not miss. I'd had Sister bookmarked for a good bit but was saving it until I could go with my Sister ofc! To sweeten the deal my brother took both of his Sisters. It was such a stubbing experience. The menu was superb, dish after dish I seriously was starting to get scared and anticipate the next item to hit the table will be horrible because no one place can be this yummy. We ordered all sorts of stuff (peep the pics!) focaccia, carrots, broccoli, beets and avocado, clams vongole, a red fish dish, a ricotta dessert and a ton of drinks! You cannot go wrong here. The plates are SO scrumptious. Service was great and our sibling dinner was an absolute smash! Ambiance is a solid 5 Stars! Literally obsessed with every nook and cranny. I love Italy and ceramics so I couldn't stop admiring every last item. Who ever designed the place, knocked this shit outta the park. It's perfection. I loved every aspect of our time here, minus the short wait after arrival for our table to be ready. read more

Amazing place, great food and decent prices. Good mixtures of dishes and flavors. Parking is tricky in this area but if coming just for this place you can use their free valet which is nice. Can also add tip in it to do it all cashless. Not a big place so it's nice and quiet but can get busy so book a reservation in advance. Need to try the other place Mister Charles next. read more

Yum!! My girlfriend and I split the focaccia, beets and avocado, pesto fusilli, carrots and Wagyu short rib dishes. To make this short and sweet, they were 10/10. The focaccia was MASSIVE! Did not expect that and the flavors bold. The pesto fusilli was so so good, the pesto was fresh and the cashews and peppers gave a great crunch. We got carrots over whipped feta as a side that was soooo tasty. The short rib was perfectly cooked and the greens on the side were a good addition. We dined on the patio and the ambiance was perfect. Great date night spot or GNO! read more

Sister is becoming a Christmas tradition. I love their modern take on Italian food. For starters, everything is meant to be shared. So for foodies, come with a group and try as much as you can! Beware, there is really no coursing. If you don't want everything at once, pace your server and don't order everything at once. The service, while friendly, does feel a bit like NASCAR with constant urgency. I get it, they are popular and busy. Ahh the food! The Za'atar focaccia is a must have. We also ordered the Arugula and Fennel Salad and Beets and Avocado. If you are not a huge fan of beets, definitely go with the former. It's a ton of beets! The Veal and Pork Meatballs were also tasty and the focaccia was handy to mop up the sauce. For pasta, we shared the pesto fusilli and the white Amatriciana. Both were tasty, but I preferred the white creamy sauce of the Amertriciana over the fusilli. The Wagyu beef was incredibly tender and a fantastic finale for our flavorful meal. Cocktails: tequila mockingbird and Old Fashioned. Amazing! They use clear ice, which is a detail I love in a cocktail bar. read more

I treated myself on a solo date here and had such an enjoyable experience! Leslie i believe was my waitresses name and she was great for my overall experience especially with it being my 1st time. I started off with the pear drink. I saw pictures online where it was accompanied with a dried pear which mine didn't have. It tasted good, was light on the alcohol imo and wasn't unforgettable. I ordered everything from each subsection of the menu. I started off with the INCREDIBLE focaccia. This thing was humungous, the olive oil which had an incredible olive flavor to it was divine!! I ordered their home made pasta which had a creamy sauce and pancetta. It was a little lukewarm but still enjoyable. I ordered a side of the potatoes, carrots and the wagyu short rib. The short rub is sous vide and cooked medium rate. However, my waiter graciously allowed me to order to medium which was much appreciated. The dish has a lot of flavors going on in the dish but the sour apple puree hit me by surprise. It was went well with the protein and I throughly enjoyed it. The accompanying salad was a little sweet for me but was still good! I loved the carrots which I thought was going to be really sweet with the apricots but everything was perfect. The potatoes had a lot of flavor profiles going on there as well. It was a lot for one person and pretty much every dish so please don't overdue it or go with people and share haha. Lastly, I ordered the lemon panna cotta without blueberry compote and the chocolate cake with espresso ice cream. That ICE CREAM WAS AMAZINGG. It was the most balanced ice cream, delicate in flavor, creamy and added the perfect sweetness to the cake. The panna cotta was an enjoyable texture but a little bit on the lemony side for me. I do wish the lemon flavor wasn't too forward but because I'm allergic to berries I can definitely see how the compote aids with the tartness. Service was top notch and I felt welcomed by my waitress who explained the menu well, listened to my allergies and was accommodating and even gave me a nice treat at the end of my meal which I greatly appreciated. Hostesses could be a little more friendly, they did look miserable and didn't acknowledge me when I came in and told them my name and reservation time. They simply looked away as if they didn't hear me and I waited over a min for one of the hostesses to grab a menu and seat me outside. I don't need a smile but simple acknowledgment would've been nice. The inconsistency with the pear drink and the panna cotta were factors into why my review wasn't a complete 5. Aside from this, if you haven't dined here, I would recommend. I came for a solo dinner date but it's also perfect for a birthday dinner, date night, girl's dinner or whatever occasion. I waited 3 years to try it and hitting myself for not going sooner. Texture is a big thing for me and I feel like they execute that well among the experience of eating food. It's an art, believe me lol. I could see this restaurant doing seasonal options with local or national flavors and that would be cool to see. I'll definitely be back!! read more

Finally, a place that lives up to the hype! We made reservations to visit Sister on a Saturday night and parked valet. We were seated near the entrance, but it was still comfortable. I tried the Spirit Animal and it's a skip for me. The bergamot liquor overpowers everything else. The Aloe-ways Love You is much better. Now on to the dinner menu. The eggplant frites was delicious, and not as greasy as other places. The broccoli is incredible and a must try dish. It's a good texture and sautéed well. The potatoes taste good, but they are dry so it's better to balance them with something like the broccoli. The wagyu short rib is a star dish. The meat was tender and, as everything else, packed with flavor. The clam vongole...I recommend staggering the dishes. Our short rib, pasta, and sides came out at the same time. That could be the reason why the pasta didn't stand out as much. The chocolate custard cake is slightly spongy, and would taste better if it were served hot. However, the espresso ice cream more than makes up for it. Service was stellar and personable! read more

Absolutely loved Sister! The food was spectacular. My favorites were the akaushi hanger steak, bluefin tartare, and clams vongole! But everything else we tried was just as delicious. Service was attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere is lively yet cozy. The perfect spot for a night out. Can't wait to come back, another winner by Duro! read more

Came recently for dinner and had a great experience. The ambiance was lively with the restaurant being packed! Our waitress was incredibly nice and helped up make our choices for the night. Started off with drinks then for appetizers, we had the veal & pork meatballs. In my opinion they were a bit dry and just okay. However portion size, it was a good sized appetizer. The wild "boaranaise" was one of my favorite items I had that night. It was perfectly cooked and the flavor was perfection. For mains, I got the wagyu short rib and akaushi hanger steak. Both were delicious however the short rib definitely took 1st place- the mix of apples, greens and short ribs was amazing. Also for dessert, the ricotta cheese cake was one of the best desserts I've had in a long time. Truly innovative, beautiful and flavorful. I also got to try the blood orange sorbet which was a perfect way to end the dinner. Overall the service was great, the food was delicious and I will be back soon! read more

The service is incredible, the food is inventive, tasty and comes to share. The Casarecce a Giallo and the focaccia is HIGHLY recommended. We also had the Wagyu Short Ribs, which will melt in your mouth. The menu is small and changes on the whim of the chef, which can be disappointing if you go for a specific thing but you WILL be able to find something else just as good. My one and ONLY complaint is the music. It is LOUD and just doesn't seem to fit the ambiance of the restaurant. It is distracting and makes people have to yell to be heard across the table. read more

I absolutely love Sister! It's great for special occasions or just a good meal with friends and family. I've been here several times and there isn't a dish that I've tried and not liked. The bolognese and Wagyu short rib are the standouts for me. The drinks are just as good as the food. I love the mezcal cocktail and espresso martini. The restaurant itself is super cute and The service is top notch! If you want cute pics, make sure you ask to reserve a booth. read more

So the service is amazing. The ambiance is really nice for a cozy date night and their wine list is extensive! If you want to try something that's just more on the original side, go here! BUT! And this is a BIG BUT, please look at the menu first. A LOT of the options are very dependent on your tastes. For example, I didn't enjoy anything on the starters list. We tried the beet salad and octopus. While these are likely the best beet salad and best octopus around, it just wasn't for me. I only enjoyed one thing on the menu and it was the wagyu. Everything was prepared BEAUTIFULLY as well! I do absolutely recommend! Not an ideal spot for children though. read more

This was our first time. To be honest we tried a time before but bailed due to the parking situation. Not a fan of handing our keys over to valet. Res is highly suggested, as this place gets booked and for a good reason. We ordered the eggplant fries for app it was good and def worth trying, the Wagu short rib, which was outstanding. Also, the Pesto Fusilli, which was also outstanding. I'd order both again. Service was great and the ambiance is a combination of chic and elegant. Great for date night or girls night. Not really a place for kids. We will definitely be repeat customers. read more

This place is absolutely beautiful and stunning inside. The wait staff are sweet and knowledgeable and attentive. The food is oh so confused and god awful. The manicotti is really an enchilada, with corn and jalapeño aioli, absolutely barely any lobster in there. The yellowfin was good but mostly jicama and cucumbers, and the massive crunchy chips tasted like a Mexican wheat snack. The Redfin was very dry over cooked and fishy, and how in the world can a short rib be rare and burnt at the same time?? Most of the cocktails are tequila based yet they claim to be Italian / Mediterranean. I think sister is having a real identity crisis. The bread is NOT FOCACCIA in any way shape or form and comes out scalding hot with no serving utensils and is rather awkwardly huge. With sesame seeds?? Where are we? The pita and tahini desperately needed salt which of course is not on the table. I highly recommend ownership reviewing the chefs menu choices and either deciding that you're high end expensive Mexican interior or do some hard inside work and look at all the obviously Mexican cuisine influences on this Italian menu. read more

Explored this spot for my husbands early birthday dinner over the weekend! Right of the bat the staff was absolutely wonderful! Our waiter Carl (i'm so sorry if I misheard your name) was the absolute BEST! He had tons of suggestions for food and drinks and was super cautious with my brother who has a seafood allergy! We had a Za'atar Focaccia to start! That bread was light, fluffy, and mouth watering! i'll be dreaming about this bread for sure!! We also got a Cacio E Pepe Potatoes which were just as good! The parmesan aioli was the star of that dish and has wiping the plate clean! We shared a couple White Amatriciana and Wild "BOARANAISE" pastas between the table! We definitely liked the Boaranaise much more than the Amatriciana! We were slightly disappointed that the restaurant didn't offer their carbonara any longer and were recommended the Amatriciana as a close second. I would definitely stick to the Boaranise next time! The spot is definitely cute for a date night but it does come with the Greenville/Dallas price tag so be warned! read more

This restaurant has been on my list of places to try for the longest and I finally got to try it out with my friends for girls night! The decor of this restaurant is so cute and so welcoming. It is a vibe on the inside! The patio is also cute as well. Parking in this area is a little annoying but they do offer complimentary valet here which is always a plus! The customer service here is amazing!! Our server was so attentive and the manager of the restaurant even stopped by to check on us! Once we sat down they surprised us with a complimentary pesto pasta to try that was delicious. We all ordered several different things and everything was amazing!! I personally ordered the crusted redfish and it was pretty good. I usually don't order fish at restaurants but I'm glad I did! However, the star of the show was the cheesecake. It was soooo delicious! I could eat that whole thing by my self. I think everyone should come here atleast once! I know I will be back read more

Booked a reservation for date night but was sadly seated in their front porch area instead of inside the actual restaurant :( From the quick looks in it seems beautiful! Service was incredible and food was fantastic! We loved how flavorful the veal & pork meatballs were (though we wish they came out warmer and not cold in the middle). And of course we enjoyed our pastas! Would definitely like to come back to try some other drinks and food items. read more

Maybe one of the best meals I've had in Dallas! We went for dinner on a Sunday night with a reservation we were seated and seen quickly. Ambiance: super cozy but still nice, feels like your grandmas living room but make it elegant. We sat in the covered patio and stayed toasty. Food: everything we ordered was great! Blue fin tartare, pesto fusilli, Morrocan spiced chicken and chocolate custard cake. Each dish had really dynamic flavors and perfect texture. Would 100% come back! read more

Why 5 stars? Because all 3 things that I ordered were unique and awesome. --- --- --- I was heading up to Dallas to see a Mavericks game, so I scouted out the food scene relatively close to the arena. As soon as I came across Sister, I was immediately sold on it. I'm happy to say that reality lived up to expectations. I ordered three things: Lobster and Burrata, Clam Vongole and Ricotta Cheesecake. I texted my wife an abridged review: bomb, bomb and bomb. Each dish had had something interesting and different about it. The lobster and burrata was served cold and had some random ingredients mixed into it that I never would have chosen myself, but they totally worked. The Clam Vongole has a very subtle kick to it that really worked. And the ricotta cheesecake was just perfect - better than regular cheesecake, for sure. The vibe of the place was just as great as the food. It felt much more like dining in NYC than Dallas. You can almost walk right by the place and miss it. I actually did not see it while driving by, as it's just one small door with one small sign. I had time for one dinner during my brief stay in Dallas and I don't think I could have picked a better spot. read more

Decided to dine here after seeing all the reviews and I must say I'm impressed with the service, food presentation and the vibe. Interior is well done and gives a very elevated cocktail lounge vibe. My favorite cocktail was the time and trouble. Everything was family style and well portioned for 5 of us. We started with charred octopus, charred carrots and Cacio E Pepe potatoes. Everything was good and flavorful but my favorite were the potato and carrots. For main course we had fusilli pesto, wild boaranaise and akaushi hanger steak. Loved both the pastas and i'm not steak person but I enjoyed that as well. For dessert I recommend trying both chocolate custard cake and Ricotta cheese cake. read more

So excited that I finally got to try out this darling spot in Dallas. The ambience of the restaurant is incredible and perfect for a date night. The service was amazing and the staff was very knowledgeable and attentive. I don't think our water glasses ever got even halfway empty. We started with the Lobster and Burrata which I will now be thinking about in my dreams for the rest of my life. Then we split the pesto pasta, crispy, Bronzino, and carrots. The fish was delicious, just a little bit spicy, which we didn't expect. The carrots were also fantastic. read more

Charred Eggplant Dip, Lobster + Burrata, Beets, Broccoli, Pesto Fusili, Wild Boaranaise, Specialty Lamb Pasta, Wagyu Short Rib, Crusted Redfish Seriously wow every Duro restaurant hits.

I think the food at Sister is as exceptional as The Charles--they do a great job with flavors and textures. The vibe is more family and bright than The Charles, and I am equally obsessed with both. Favorites were the Lobster + burrata and the pastas, but dang everything hit. My little mocktail was delicious too!! And Duro also does a great job with their attentive friendly staff too! read more

Came with a friend to celebrate her birthday and while the ambiance and service was good the food lacked that consistency. They offer valet (tips) and that went pretty smoothly for a busy Tuesday night. We started out with appetizers- charred eggplant dip, veal and pork meatballs, and charred octopus. I did enjoy the meatballs but struggled with the charred eggplant dip. The color is very off putting and we weren't expecting raw veggies as the side - The charred octopus was a tad bit on the salty side. For entrees, we ordered the pesto fusilli and white amatriciana and the amatrician was the best dish of the night! The pasta was freshly made and cooked to al dante. I didn't care much for the fusilli only because it was veggie loaded. We ended the evening with a lemmon panna cotta and enjoyed this. Overall, the mix of Italian and Mediterranean doesn't work for me but there were a couple of good highlights regarding this spot! read more

I went here with my wife for her birthday on St. Patrick's Day. The Staff and the ambience was great here. It feels like I'm in my Nonna's house. All the food was great. The only critique I have is that the Fuseli pesto pasta could use a little bit more salt and maybe some red pepper flake the pasta was supposed to come with sausage but we only got like one piece. But the hanger steak and charred broccoli and chard octopus was some of the best food I've had in a while. The cheesecake is deconstructed and has great texture. I would love more of a crunch to it. Overall, the place has a great service and great vibes and great food. Would recommend to come here. read more

Some places serve food. Sister serves perspective. It starts the moment you walk in. You're not just greeted. You're acknowledged. Nick meets you with the kind of presence that should be studied. Warm but commanding. Like he's been waiting all day for you to arrive. He doesn't just lead you to a table. He sets the tone. Calm. Collected. Cool. Then comes Axl. He's not a bartender. He's an alchemist. I asked for something mezcal driven and he disappeared for ninety seconds, only to return with a drink that felt like it was made for my soul. No recipe card. No gimmicks. Just pure craft. It hit with smoke, citrus, and something else I still can't quite place. Something right out of Oaxaca. Matt runs the floor with a quiet precision. The kind of hospitality that's neither loud nor overly polished. It's real. Intentional. Grounded. He's the heartbeat of the room and the reason the whole space feels like it's moving in rhythm. And Taylor. A soft landing in a city that rarely slows down. She's not there to impress. She's there to connect. The kind of person who remembers your name without looking twice and knows when to drop in and when to fade into the background. The kind of grace you can't train. We opened with the Lobster and Burrata. Tomato and Calabrian chili, balanced by crunchy potato chips. A dish that should feel confused but instead hits like a perfect chord. Heat, richness, crunch. Brilliant. The Za'atar Focaccia with chili oil and tzatziki might be the most honest thing on the menu. No fluff. No filler. Just bold flavor and confidence. Then came the Pesto Fusilli. Fennel sausage, smoked almond, goat cheese. It tastes like the chef broke into a garden, raided the spice cabinet, and cooked with intention. Deep. Smoky. Addictive. But the dish that stayed with me -- the Wild Boarnaise. Rye mafaldine tangled with shredded wild boar, rosemary and Fiore Sardo. It's primal. Rich. And deeply soulful. Like a Tuscan campfire retelling your life story. And don't skip the Grilled Cauliflower. That Manchurian glaze has no business going that hard. Paired with shiso and dill tahini -- it turns a humble veg into something that eats like a headline. Finished with the Ricotta Cheesecake. Pomegranate jelly and cannoli crunch. Nostalgia meets reinvention. Soft. Tart. Balanced. Sister is not hype. It is not trend. It is a testament to what happens when passion and execution actually shake hands. The space is stunning. The service is soulful. The food? A masterclass in restraint and boldness living side by side. Michelin may not have made it here yet. But they should. Until then I'll be back. Sitting at the bar. Mezcal in hand. Watching artists do what they were clearly born to do. Book the table. Order the pasta. Stay present. read more

Amazing amazing! Right when you walk in theres a moody vibe with artwork and a lot of greenery inside. Service was amazing and they were able to give me plenty of vegetarian options. We started with the Zaatar focaccia and it was so good. The bread was fluffy and huge and the olive tapenade it came with was great. We got the broccoli as a veggie and that was very filling and had a unique citrus flavor. For the main, I asked for the pesto pasta without the sausage. It was delicious! To finish we got the chocolate custard cake with espresso ice cream and it was so heavy but a great treat. Overall I would come back and try some more unique items on the menu! read more

The food was flavorful and delicious, I especially loved all the vegetable dishes! The beets dish and the carrot dish was so yummy!! Definitely my favorites.
