50 Best Italian Restaurants in Atlanta

“The sachetti (little purses) are to die for. The Marsala crème sauce is delicious“

“We had an incredible anniversary dinner this past weekend. The wagyu truffle ravioli is to die for! The service was fantastic.“

“I would highly recommend BoccaLupo. We thoroughly enjoyed everything from the drinks, appetizers, entrees, veggies, and desserts. Very different drink and food menu adds to this top notch restaurant. All servers are very knowledgeable in the menu and daily taste specials. Also, they make excellent recommendations if u ask. I was impressed when they changed silverware after each course. Classy! Top it off with homemade pasta and your tastebuds will thank you. We will be back!!!“

“So many great options. I like sandwiches and order Meatball Parm, White Stripes or Muffalleta often. Fig salad and eggplant parm are special treats. Snickerdoodles can solve world problems.“

“Tiramisu is worth the hype. Steak was cooked really well although they didn't ask for preference. Not a full bar so limited drinks for cocktails. The polenta cakes were fine, crispy potatoes were surprisingly good. Biggest complaint is service - just didn't feel very attentive in general. You would expect better service with the vibe being intimate and cozy.“

“Italiano vero 🥰🇮🇹“

“Absolutely amazing food, service,and atmosphere!“

“Very nice staff & great food!“

“We had a fantastic dinner at KR Steakbar that blended creative cocktails with beautifully prepared dishes. We started with the Apollonia Cocktail, a mix of vodka, pineapple amaro, lemon, and apple-infused black tea liquor. Light, fragrant, and perfectly balanced, it set the tone for the evening. I ordered the pappardelle bolognese, and it was outstanding. The pasta was fresh and tender, the sauce rich and layered, with just the right depth of flavor. My partner went with the steak, and it was cooked to absolute perfection—juicy, tender, and seasoned with just the right balance to let the natural flavor shine. The presentation elevated the dish without being overly fussy, and it paired wonderfully with the sides. This place delivered on every front: atmosphere, service, and food. The cocktails were inventive, the dishes masterfully prepared, and the evening felt special without being pretentious. It’s a spot that knows how to balance creativity with comfort. We will be back often.“

“Ex New Yorker here. By far the best Italian food I've ever had. Great service and atmosphere, too. I can't wait to go back. DELICIOUS!!!“

“Our waiter was fabulous! Sadly, we did not get his name but we absolutely loved him. Friendly, happy and got our orders correct! The food was delicious. If we come back up here again, we'll most definitely make it a point to stop in for a meal.“

“Love all the Storico restaurants...food and service is great... great vibe at Forza!“

“The entire experience was amazing. The food is so delicious that it will make you dance in your seat with joy. Coming from out of state, valet parking was much appreciated. Our waiter Tyler was so helpful and fun. A perfect date day trip and meal. ❣️“

“Awesome Food we wanted Pizza and they were Perfect 👍we will definitely go back! Service was great too!!!“

“The service and attention to detail are exceptional. The food was amazing, in particular, the seafood roast was a generous and varied portion of shellfish. Everything was served at just cooked temperature, which does not always happen in other restaurants. The lemon cello sorbet was delightful after a well seasoned meal.“

“This place was great! After an experience next door we crashed here and was NOT disappointed. We were greeted and reviewed the menu. Ordered the eggplant parmesan, meatballs, pizza and wine. We sat at the bar in front of the wood fire ovens. Got to watch our meals being prepared and had the most pleasant conversation with the pizza makers. The meatballs were FIRE! They were amazing, wonderful combo of meats and hand made…AMAZING. The pizza was also just the best pizza I have had in a long time. They finish with actual Italian olive oil which took the experience to another level. Then oh whoa almost forgot about their dessert. We ordered the pistachio cake and tiramisu. WOW, the dessert was simply beautiful and perfect amount of sweetness. Everything was fresh and amazing. All the employees there were wonderful welcoming and kind. Such a great place! Will be back for sure!!“

“We stopped in very early on the way home, around 3:30 pm. The hostess was very kind to the only server working at that time & asked us to wait for 10-15 minutes, to allow her to catch up and supper staff to arrive. After a short wait that was no issue at all, our server, Daijah came to the table & proceeded to give amazing attention to my wife & I for the next hour. She offered excellent food suggestions which we partially used. My wife's lobster spaghetti and my choice of dessert, their butter cake. We began with the tomato bruschetta & it was perfect. My wife ordered a bottle of wine with the meal, handled perfectly by Daijah. Angelo came by & checked on the meal and service during the entrees. All of which were incredible. I had the wagyu stuffed shells, in spicy red sauce, which was phenomenal! Our desserts of butter cake & creme brulee, were also superb. Kris came by at the end & we were happy to congratulate him on a perfect meal & experience. We will definitely be back soon!!!!“

“EVERYTHING WAS NICE FROM EMPLOYEES TO FOOD! My new favorite place!“

“Food was great and the staff very attentive!“

“My husband and I had an amazing experience- Lisa Marie the manager took the time to visit us twice to talk! Jenny was our server and was attentive, kind and on top of everything! Special thanks also to Armani who flourished the Martini Cart at our table and to Emmanuel the Sommelier who chose the perfect dessert wine - if we had more time in Atlanta we would have come back for a second night! Five Star service with excellent, savory beautifully prepared food!“

“I’ve gone in the last decade or so, I’ve tried a different cake/cheesecake slice. And every single time, I’m left feeling perfectly satisfied. The ambiance exudes “European decadence”, from the intricate bathroom detailing to the delicate cursive script written inside the coffee cups. Moreover, I always love how many people are also here near midnight with a slice and coffee in-hand, especially on those random weeknights. Absolutely one of my favorite spots in the city, and it checks all the boxes to be considered a must-visit spot for anyone.“

“Always a wonderful experience!“

“Such an amazing place. Here for business and found this location. Amazing food!!“

“Delicious Italian cuisine. Great atmosphere and the service was perfect.“

“This is located in a ghost kitchen along with multiple other ghost kitchens. There is a sign posted that tells you how to order, you don't use the kiosk. Your food is then bought out to you. Ordered BBQ turkey leg, greens and yams but, instead of yams received Mac n cheese which was actually delicious so it was a nice mistake.😋 I would say they should not put hot peppers in the greens as they were so hot I couldn't even eat them but, they were good.“

“Food and service excellent. Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable . Food is very flavorful and delicious! Surprised they did not offer bread with meal. Dessert and apéritif Very good as well. We sat in the patio with heaters. Very nice“

“Where I like to go to celebrate birthdays.“

“Highly recommend. Great food, great wine, great service.“

“We were here on our way to North Carolina. Definitely worth the stop!“

“Amazing Food & Amazing Service!! My experience with the staff started and ended with a smile! That Smash Burger was sooo bomb!!! 10 out of 10! The wings were good as well. I just prefer for my wings to be extra crispy which I should've requested. The mumbo sauce was bomb. I should’ve paid extra for another container!

Thanks for the great experience! 🫶🏾“

“We have been looking for a great Italian restaurant in Atlanta. We finally found it. Everything was good from soup to nuts. Five stars! ⭐️“

“The experience here was excellent, deserving a perfect 10 out of 10. The vibe is exceptional, but this spot isn’t suited for large portions. Instead, it’s ideal for a 3- to 5-course meal, savoring each dish. The staff is very friendly, and everything we tried was fantastic. From the beef tartare and oysters to the pasta and vegetables, every bite was delightful. I can’t comment much on their drinks since I only had Grand Marnier neat, and that's hard to screw up!“

“Great tasting food! Great casual dining experience!“

“I fell in love with this place over the weekend and now I cannot wait to return. It reminds me of some of my favorite NYC spots, with the beautiful front bar area and piano, delicious food, cozy design, and a lovely crowd The Saturday night sing-alongs by the piano were the perfect way to end my weekend. I had the lasagna ---YUMMY Calamari - SO good, not overly breaded, fresh tasting, and the right amount. Look forward to my next time and plan on bringing some friends!“

“This is our go-to brunch spot for Virginia Highlands. Love love love the veggie benedict, french toast and bottomless mimosas! Osteria is a neighborhood establishment and we've been going here for over 20 years. Our kids were raised going to weekly dinner here and still obsess over the kids mac and cheese even though they're grown. The brunch is a great addition. The owner does a lot for the neighborhood.“

“Crispina Ristorante & Pizzeria is a must try restaurant in Cumberland Atlanta. We ordered fettuccini Alfredo and Primavera pasta. Pepperoni & Home run pizza and the Calamari. Everything was spot on. Our server is Forest. Thank you so much for the fast and great service. Anyone craving for Italian Cuisine. We highly recommend this place. You guys deserves a 5 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating..“

“Me and my boyfriend came here for the first time last night and oh my goodness it was so good!!! For appetizers, we got meatballs, and the cheezy bread. Meatballs were the best meatballs I've ever had in my life, and the cheezy bread was like a mini pizza! Just without the sauce obviously. For entrées, he got the chicken parm with the noodles on the side, and I had asked for shrimp scampi. Our server said It was no longer on the menu, (I saw it in a video and was hoping to get some) but she was SO amazing and was able to get it made for me!!! I wish so much that I got her name because she was absolutely stunning as a human and as a server. They eneded up running out of their vanilla Gelato, so we didn't get desert but the experience was absolutely wonderfully. The manager also came by to say hello and was absolutely charming as well. We loved the service and food so much we ended up getting a whole nother entre to go. If I could give 10 stars I would. ❤️❤️“

“Great food great service ? really enjoyed“

“We had a wonderful birthday celebration for my granddaughter yesterday evening at Amore e Amore! Delicious food and excellent service. The decorations and the party atmosphere were so much fun! I will definitely be back 👏🥂❤️“

“Great food and fantastic service!“

“The Best!!“

“Sitting outside was wonderful food good and pricing good .Had an excellent wine that I will recommend and Is Langhe Nebbiolo not pricy also“

“Come back to Tucker Farmers Market please! The sauce is awesome and we need more of it, ha!“

“I was expecting more given the hype, but the drink menu is very well thought out. The bar is very small and Extremely Loud so be aware that bringing a large party here might not be applicable for most people. The F1 theme is a little more minimalistic than I was expecting, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.I feel like most people would Love This Bar. For me it's a little too loud.“

“Elyse did amazing! Great food, Thank you kitchen staff for making my little one’s day on dessert. Cannoli and shrimp scampi delicious. The bread is also great!!! Must come back when we come in town again.“

“We were lucky enough to stumble across this little gem while traveling through Atlanta this past week. Great customer service, amazing food and drinks. I’m definitely returning next time I’m in the area!“

“Little Azio located right off Northside Drive and I 75. Excellent location and a profoundly good Italian restaurant. 🥗 salads .💎 sandwiches pizza🍕pasta, anything you want is cooked to order and quality.

The owner and management of the store is run with excellence. Great customer service and clean restaurant environment. The outdoor seating on northside Drive is beautiful and offers a good view. This is a great restaurant to meet people at.
