ℳ𝒶𝓎♍October 31, 2015Ecco is both fancy and awesome, the decoration oozes with sexiness. Food tastes like heaven. Extraordinarily great pasta dishes, pizzas and desserts. The service was very handy and cheerful
Creative Loafing AtlantaApril 25, 2013Frying makes everything better, and goat cheese is already pretty pleasing to the taste buds. Ecco takes it to the next level with this sure short from CL’s 100 Dishes to eat before you die! Read more
EaterJanuary 21, 2013Don't miss the fried goat cheese appetizer and olive oil stracciatella ice cream, and if the weather is nice, ask for a tour of the rooftop garden. [Eater 38 Member]
Ozzie SabinaApril 14, 2017goat cheese balls are amazing, rabbit dish I had was also amazing. Pretty much everything there is good.
Maya ByrneDecember 13, 2017Pappardelle was fresh with bright notes of basil and tomato and rich with the delicious tender lamb.
Ryan ConwellJanuary 15, 2016The fried goat cheese is a must! Don't try to cut in half, just pop the whole thing and use your bread to get all that honey and pepper goodness in the bottom! Yum!
ATL_HunterJuly 15, 2015Fantastic charcuterie and frommage selection. The olive oil chocolate chip ice cream is ridiculously fantastic. If you can't get a table, try the bar. The service is just as great.
Anne RMay 8, 2016Love the choices for the wine and cheese board! That plus mussels in both was perfect. Best thing: amazing service and allergy-friendly!- Joshua Van DykNovember 27, 2016Really Fantastic. Super sharp staff with great knowledge of food and wine. Very Impressed with the staff, food, and ambiance. Highly recommend it!
Sarah PathammavongApril 16, 2012Love Ecco -- great spot in midtown! Great ambience and desserts are amazing (Champagne truffles and Chocolate walnut semifreddo)!!! The fried goat cheese balls appetizer is yummy too!
This is a great place for people with all palettes! Their menu is diverse enough that there is something for every foodie in your life. Mediterranean inspired wine list has plenty of choices.

FoodieVilleAugust 26, 2011Save room for the excellent desserts. And--like everyone else has mentioned--the fried goat cheese balls with lavender honey and black pepper are not to be missed! Excellent cocktails, too.
Chris KonecnyMay 29, 2014More trendy than I normally prefer but I can't point to a single thing wrong with the food. Great meal overall. Monkfish was perfect (many places don't get it right)
Ecco is awesome for upscale group dinners. Creative, fresh, delicious food; wonderful service; exciting atmosphere. Ask for Allison & tell her I sent you!
Glendean HamiltonOctober 9, 2017Still thinking about the Lamb Shank...four days later! Will definitely return.

Kim NguyenJune 12, 2012Sit at the bar and order a cocktail from the best (and nicest) bartenders in town. Long Live the Queen is a perennial favorite, but the seasonal drinks are just as heady.
Steven AndrophyJanuary 17, 2017Everything we tried was great, but the fried goat cheese, roasted cauliflower and lamb ribs were definitely stars.
Toreya SheaDecember 10, 2012Enough already with the goat cheese balls! We get it! It is a given! Try the hake. Amazing. And the squash is the perfect winter dish!
Domyngo RuixNovember 23, 2013Fried goat cheese is a must have! Great food, great service, great place. Such a wonderful experience every time we come.
Alexandre MunhozJanuary 8, 2023A disappointment start to finish. Despite the nice ambiance and good cocktails the food is pretty bad. Excess of spices ruined the fresh mussels, chewy lamb meatballs, pale beat salad, among others.
The bar has a good atmosphere and looks over the beautiful restaurant. Great place to eat for a party of 2.
Jane LeDecember 16, 2015The pasta, small plates, and charcuterie are excellent! Loved the short rib pasta!
Chris KelnerOctober 1, 2015Get the goat cheese balls. Their charcuterie is really good. Extensive wine list.
Rom PapadopoulosAugust 17, 2014Pancetta wrapped chorizo stuffed dates! Boquerones! Fried goat cheese! All excellent!!!
At the bar? Eric is one of the best/nicest in the city! He's also a spin instructor in case you need help the next day. :)
Steve LucasOctober 18, 2011Best cocktail selection in town. I tell everyone about their blood orange margarita and sweet-and-spicy housemade tonic/gin.
Ericka ThompsonFebruary 16, 2013After having a delicious dinner, ask bartender for the sticky toffee pudding with ice cream. Never go wrong ;)
Ecco never disappoints. Nice cocktails, interesting small bites and outstanding service.
Devin ReamsFebruary 20, 2015The arugula pizza is delicious. The meat gives it a kick of heat and flavor.- Nicole AlmeidaFebruary 14, 2013Loved the ambience and food - had the duck and it was the best one I ever had!
Chad ElkinsNovember 27, 2011This restaurant was used as the filming location where the characters played by Ryan Reynolds & Olivia Wilde went on their first date in the movie 'The Change-Up'. Read more
Julie JEWELeSSeptember 12, 2015Try the Parpadelle Pasta - In-house made so u know I got it! #yum (via @Foodspotting)
Carla BlackallerSeptember 9, 2015Goat cheese balls are good but would prefer cheese and meat table. Tasted the rabit loin, pretty good but wouldn't recommend if it's your first time, it just doesn't taste so Mediterranean.- Julie JEWELeSSeptember 12, 2015Try the Charcuterie Plate With Soppressanta & Gouda Cheese - Excellent (via @Foodspotting)
Holly Howard SteinhoffMay 9, 2013Champagne truffles and lavender shortbread cookies are a to-die-for dessert combination.
Jackson ReevesNovember 11, 2010As a lover of all things cheese, I have to recommend the fried goat cheese glazed with honey and black pepper. Delicious. Read more- Try the Castro Monk - AMAZING!!! High West rye, Benedictine, orange
