Santa Claus isn’t the only one bringing gifts to Dallas this holiday season. Eataly, a large-format Italian grocery store and dining hall, is sliding into NorthPark Center this Wednesday, and it is bringing Italian treats and gifts to Preston Hollow.

Eataly includes many restaurants and shops that serve different Italian faire. Of course, however, it has somewhat of a Dallas twist. For instance, their meat counter features locally sourced beef and brisket.

The first location opened in Turin, Italy in 2007, and it has only grown and expanded since. With locations in New York, Tokyo, Rome, Chicago, Milan, Sao Paolo, Munich, Las Vegas, Boston, Los Angeles, Paris and Toronto, Dallas joins a catalog of other cities who get to partake in their Italian experience.

Other shops and restaurants in Eataly include Il Gelato, which serves gelato with pistachios from Sicilia, Eataly Vino, which has a wide selection of wine for every aspiring sommelier, and Terra, where the dining room features a wood-burning Italian grill. These three spots join a plethora of other shops and restaurants in the market.
