Maurizio's

Dallas

PERMANENTLY CLOSED

In the depths of Coppell, Maurizio's Southern-Italian staples are whipped up by a Naples native who, during a 14-year stint as a cop in Rome, met his American future wife, who he followed back to Texas in '04; he managed at Patrizio's & Cafe Brazil before opening his new resto, which sports earthy stone/wood trappings picked by his interior-decorator wife, a glittery black bar, and a custom oak-burning pizza oven (in a pinch, they will burn generic oak).
