Mandola's Italian Market is a popular place to shop and dine in Bee Cave, Texas. Every nook and cranny in the marketplace area is packed with imported treasures, ranging from dried pasta and ladyfingers to oil-packed capers.

But there's no need to wait until you get home to chow down: Mandola's operates an attached trattoria that offers a range of delectable goodies, and the restaurant's aroma wafts around the marketplace, tempting you to sit down for a quick bite after you finish your shopping. Yelp reviewers rave over the bruschetta topped with fresh tomatoes, garlic, and basil, and they say you shouldn't miss the traditional antipasto selection of cured meats, cheeses, and assorted relishes and marinated vegetables. Hot meals like deep dish lasagna and chicken parmesan are also available, and you can even order take-out family-style meals for up to six people.
