Our
Story
It starts in Southern Italy, as do our recipes, where owner and chef Dino Santonicola found his first love, autentico cibo del sud. And it’s through this first love that he found his forever love, Megan. Under the watchful eye of the city’s namesake and beautiful siren Partenope, Dino and Megan were married. The Santonicola’s passion and love for the culture and cuisine of Southern Italy is being shared at Partenope, Dallas’ first authentic Southern Italian ristorante. At Partenope, you’re not just a patron, you’re part of our story – and part of our family. Benvenuto!
