Partenope Ristorante is expanding its space in Richardson’s CORE district.

The restaurant serves a variety of Neapolitan pizzas, handmade pastas and other Italian dishes for lunch and dinner.

Owner Dino Santonicola said that the expansion will allow the restaurant to add increased seating and a dedicated room for private events.

“Demand has consistently exceeded the size of our current dining room and guests frequently request space for groups and private events,” Santonicola said. “It allows us to better serve the community while maintaining the quality and hospitality Partenope is known for.”
