Ari's Pantry opened their doors in December of 2023 in Oak Cliff, idea stemming from Ari Lowenstein, a caterer who spent over 10 years living in Rome before settling down in Dallas. He wanted his store to mimic his time living in Rome, where he would pop into corner stores to grab ingredients for dinner, or just to catch up with the regulars.
