Terra, the restaurant inside Eataly Dallas at NorthPark Center, is bringing back its Terra Takeover series, and this round pairs the Italian marketplace’s kitchen with one of Dallas’s most respected pastry programs. From July 25 through August 23, weekends only, Terra will host a limited-time brunch collaboration with Sugar & Sage Bakery, the University Park bakery that’s built a genuine following since opening in 2023.
Italy has been exporting two things to the rest of the world with particular success for the last several centuries: its cuisine and the conviction that the way Italians eat is worth understanding. Oscar Farinetti built an entire retail concept around that second point when he opened the first Eataly in Turin in 2007 — a marketplace where the food and the knowledge of the food exist in the same room, where the person buying the flour can watch someone make the pasta and sit down to eat it within thirty feet. The idea spread. There are now more than fifty locations worldwide.
Dallas got one on December 9, 2020, and it occupies 48,000 square feet inside NorthPark Center between Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom, which is either a deeply ironic location or a perfectly appropriate one, depending on how you feel about Italy’s relationship with luxury.
On Thursday, March 5, Les Dames d’Escoffier Dallas will honor International Women’s Day with its signature celebration, Festa Della Donna, hosted at Eataly at NorthPark Center.

Every month at La Pizza & La Pasta, Eataly Dallas is going iconic – bringing one of Italy’s most famous dishes to center stage with an unmissable dining experience.
This April, it’s all about Tagliatelle alla Bolognese, the signature dish of Bologna, the food-capital of Emilia-Romagna. This Icon of Eataly is made with 40-yolk Tagliatelle (that’s kneaded, rolled, shaped, and cut by hand every single day) with Italian durum flour for an extra rich pasta. Their chefs combine the pasta with authentic ragu alla Bolognese that’s slow-cooked for 12+ hours and freshly grated 24-month aged Parmigiano Reggiano DOP.
