Italchos

Found in a timeless location on Lower Greenville neighborhood, Terilli’s has been charming Dallas diners with its unique blend of upscale Italian cuisine, live music, and rooftop ambiance since opening its doors in 1985. Founded by the spirited and visionary Jeannie Terilli, the restaurant is steeped in both personal heritage and a fierce commitment to quality, creativity, and community.

With that fire-roasted idea and a small storefront on Greenville Avenue, Cowboy Chicken was born.
