DALLAS, TX – RED
Development announced that Fox Restaurants Concepts’ North Italia restaurant
will open a new Dallas location at The Union Dallas in 2018.
The 5,500 square-foot
modern, full service pizza and pasta Italian concept from restaurateur Sam Fox,
will be on the ground level overlooking the central plaza of the office,
residential and retail project that will total approximately 800,000 square
feet in the Uptown area of Dallas.
Serving lunch and dinner
seven days a week, the restaurant is designed to open onto Field Street and
will offer indoor and outdoor seating. Known for its made-from-scratch daily
pastas and pizzas, the restaurant will bring a fresh, inviting and moderately
priced dining option to the area. North Italia will join another Sam Fox
restaurant at this location, The Henry.
“North Italia is a
sophisticated, highly successful restaurant concept from the one and only Sam Fox, which perfectly complements
the polished, welcoming live-work-play urban environment we are creating at The
Union,” said Mike Ebert, Managing
Partner, RED Development.

“North is a real draw that
will appeal not only to residents and people who work at The Union, but also to
neighbors and visitors to Uptown Dallas seeking a best-in-class restaurant that
marries wonderful food with a hip and inviting setting.”
“We are looking forward to
opening North Italia, our love letter to Italy, at The Union in Uptown Dallas,”
said Sam Fox, founder of Fox Restaurant Concepts.
“This energy-filled location
in a great part of town offers an ideal environment for us to showcase the art
of handmade pizza and pasta, along with an inspired wine list and much more, in
the spirit of a true Italian taverna.
“Our restaurant in Austin
has been so well received, and we are eager to bring our authentic approach to
modern Italian food to Uptown Dallas.”

At The Union location,
guests can expect to enjoy the same freshly made tasty mix of pizzas, along
with a mix of chicken, seafood and steak options offered in their other nine
locations in Arizona, California, Colorado, Kansas and Texas.
Slow-cooked short
ribs, New York Strip, Atlantic Salmon and Diver Scallops will be on the menu
along with home-made Strozzapreti with Bloomsdale spinach, supple ribbons of
tagliatelle for Bolognese and several pizza options accompanied by an extensive
wine list and mouth watering desserts like Salted Caramel Budino and Olive Oil
Cake.
“The vibrant mix and
quality of dining options at The Union is one of the many amenities that initially
attracted our firm to this location,” said Vinson & Elkins Partner John Wander. “The walkability to a variety of restaurants
is important to our more than 145 attorneys and will also offer convenient
opportunities for our clients. We are
looking forward to moving to this highly-desirable workplace and location.”

Beyond the inviting
ground-floor location that is within walking distance of Dallas’ premier
sports, entertainment, museum and outdoor park venues, The Union’s
21,000-square-foot green space and events plaza will enhance North Italia’s
exceptional culinary experience.
The central plaza will be
designed by top Texas landscape designer, Office of James Burnett, and will be surrounded by water features, seating
areas, trees and a performance area so that diners may extend their experience
before or after their meal with a stroll through the green space or simply sit
and enjoy the ambience of the park-like setting.
Located at Field Street
and Cedar Springs Road, The Union is a connection point for many of Dallas’
most vibrant business and residential districts including Downtown, Uptown, the
Arts District and Victory Park neighborhoods.
Ideally located, the signature
22-story contemporary designed blue-hued office tower and 23-story residential
tower offer sweeping views of the city with unparalleled conveniences and
amenities to tenants.

professional services firms were previously announced to be moving to The Union
Dallas office tower. One of the nation’s largest law firms, Vinson &
Elkins, will move its firm to the project in 2018 and will occupy approximately
82,000 square-feet on three floors of the signature office building. Weaver,
the largest independent accounting firm in the Southwest, will move its Dallas
office to approximately 58,000 square feet and two floors in the office tower.
