Owner Message

  • Welcome to the award-winning Nicola's Ristorante Italiano in Plano's The Shops at Legacy. Its sophisticated atmosphere and innovative design features a bar, romantic, high-backed booths, al fresco dining on the patio, private dining and semi-private dining rooms, and a mezzanine overlooking the main dining area. Authentic Northern Italian cuisine is prepared in the traditions of Chef Luciano Salvadore's mother country. All pasta is hand-made, there are no freezers in the restaurant and groceries are delivered twice a day to insure only market-fresh ingredients. The wood-burning oven was imported from Italy and often produces Nicola's delicious pizzas, lasagnettas, and baked fish. Our staff is friendly and committed to providing excellent service with a smile on their face.

    Nicola's Ristorante Italiano was voted Best Italian Restaurant by the Dallas Observer's Readers Poll 2008.

Editorial

  • The Scene
    The space is dramatic: soaring ceilings, elegant chandeliers, rich dark woods offset by splashes of crimson. A long bar area greets guests near the entryway. Private dining nooks along the back wall add a touch of intimacy to the large airy space. Upstairs, the mezzanine is the perfect place for quieter dining while still people-watching. Service is what one would expect from a fine dining experience: attentive and knowledgeable.

    The Food
    The antipasti chef carefully hand slices prosciutto and assembles an assortment of Italian cheeses, fire-roasted vegetables, marinated olives and fruits for the antipasti platter. Highly recommended are the buttery Chilean sea bass--paired up with Swiss chard in a white wine butter sauce--and tender veal chop topped with crispy pancetta, Fontina cheese served on bed of polenta with a white truffle infusion. Desserts include tiramisu with just enough espresso and coffee liqueur soaked in lady's fingers and the traditional Sicilian cannoli.
