Taverna Rossa was our favorite discovery of 2017. If you recall the RJG is a huge proponent of craft beer, and combine that with artisan pizza, and you darn near have the perfect mix. This is the type of restaurant we're starting to seek out when traveling out of town like Pies and Pints in West Virginia (both Charleston and Morgantown) and Lucky Pie in Denver.
They have a wide variety of pizzas and pastas, all excellent. Personally I like their Spicy Pig pizza, because I'm in fact, a spicy pig. Their All-American is great as well (mostly these are meat pies). The pizza is appropriately crispy, with a great sauce. Their lunch special is the way to go: A personal sized pizza and a salad for $9.99. I personally think their Caesar salad is one of the best I've had - not drenched in a thick gooey overpowering monstrosity. This is a lighter blend, with crisp and cold romaine lettuce and fresh shaved parmesan cheese, and they don't skimp on the portion (or the cheese). And the beer taps are not wimpy or predictable, it's truly craft, with beers you may not see anywhere else. And they actually rotate them. They even have their own brewery now known as Union Bear.
Taverna Rossa is a great place to hang out. Sit at the bar and chat with the bartender, or take a seat in the large spacious restaurant. Comfortable digs. You'll find the restaurant in one of the zillion new retail spaces in Southlake on the NW corner of Carroll and Southlake Blvd.
They have another location in Plano that remains open as of May 2022.
