A new restaurant just opened in the former Opa Grille location at 12827 Preston Road in north Dallas. We stopped in for a bite of lunch pizza recently to check out the new digs and speak to the owner Luigi Nicci and his family.

I have actually met people that have not been to Cane Rosso in Deep Ellum. Some think it is too far for them to travel, others still have an odd impression about Deep Ellum.
