The BYOB policy means customers also get a chance to shop, perhaps scouring Jimmy's for the perfect Sangiovese to pair with Urbano's phenomenal Bolognese.

Rather, you can get intricately sauced and locally seasoned gourmet dishes such as the signature spaghetti Bolognese and delicate appetizers such as prosciutto-wrapped fig bruschetta with Texas honeycomb. Lunch is still a deal--the tasty paninis and... More »
