The Sicilian Butcher

We started with the Charred Octopus — perfectly tender with poached potatoes, ’nduja butter, and citrus oil. It was beautifully balanced: smoky, slightly spicy, and bright all at once. A fantastic way to begin the meal. Next, we tried the Meatball Ferris Wheel, which comes with one of each craft meatball served over creamy polenta. Such a fun concept and even better in flavor. Every bite was rich and comforting, but the standout favorite was the steak meatball with truffle mushroom sauce. The earthy truffle and savory steak combination was next level — easily the best of the bunch. For the Pane Cunzatu (Sicilian-style bruschetta), we chose: • Whipped Ricotta • Whipped Goat Cheese & Peperonata • Pea Pesto • Prosecco Grapes Each one had its own personality, but the absolute favorite was the Prosecco Grapes — gorgonzola dolce, Sicilian pistachio, and pink peppercorn. The sweet and savory balance was perfection, and the texture combination made it unforgettable. The quality of ingredients really shines through in every dish, and you can tell there’s attention to detail in both flavor and presentation. It’s elevated but still warm and inviting — the kind of place that feels special without being pretentious. Definitely one of our new favorite Italian spots in Fort Worth. We’ll be back for that truffle mushroom meatball and grape bruschetta for sure. 🇮🇹✨

Ernest was our service and he explained the menu so well! He was friendly, funny, and engaging. We ordered the meatball ferris wheel because…why not? Loved them all!, though the meatball of the month, which was the turkey, was my least favorite. I really liked the Tony’s steak meatball. We also ordered the calamari as an appetizer. I normally prefer my calamari on the less chewy side, and this one was borderline, but the seasoning they used along with the lemon aioli made them so addicting! We also ordered Nonna’s garlic bread which was delicious (a little on the pricey side, but since you can trust the ingredients to be of good quality, it’s worth it). I had the salmon filet which was cooked perfectly! The skin had a nice crust and there was a very light breadcrumb on the top that seemed to add a little texture to the dish. My friend ordered the chicken parmesan. I don’t get photos of everything, but when we come back, we will definitely order the salmon, calamari, nonna’s bread, and a a make-your-own pasta dish with the Tony’s steak meatball and the truffle mushroom sauce with, hmm, undecided on the pasta type. But everything is from scratch with ingredients flown in from Sicily!! Will be back.

Impromptu choice for lunch to celebrate a birthday! Really great decision as the food was yummy! Being our first time we wanted to try the turkey meatball Ferris wheel, all which had their own unique flavor. The bread it came with was the highlight for me as it was very airy and light. The birthday girl ordered from their lunch menu having the lobster bisque with the pesto parmesan meatballs and spaghetti. I ordered the lemon prawns & lobster ravioli, a newer dish on their menu. Absolutely delicious. We dove right into our plates we didn’t get any pictures. That’s how you know it was good. Very lucky to have stumbled into this place. Only wish we weren’t in a hurry otherwise we would have stopped by the Sicilian Bakery for some cannolis.

Our waitress Earnest explained everything about the menu very well and besides only have a few gluten free options, they were all very tasty and delicious! I had a taste of my childhood favorites today. I absolutely love it and will come back for more.

My daughter treated me to lunch here for Mother’s Day. Great experience and the food was delicious. The charcuterie board was perfect for two and very filling. I never ever eat olives but even their olives are delicious. I can’t remember what they are marinated in but I can’t stop thinking about them. So weird! The lobster bisque is amazing! The tiramisu and napoleons are a must have if you are a dessert person. Lastly, I cannot forget to mention that our sever Ernest is tops. Very professional, very funny and very attentive. We will be going back!
