    Hands down, one of the best Italian restaurants in the city.  We love the city vibe, open kitchen and sexy bar. The stand out item for is always the spaghetti with veal meatballs. Read more

    Unassuming, yet full of heart, this underrated Virginia-Highland jewel is where you go when you crave simple Italian food done right. The Monday night pasta special ($10) is a deal. [Eater 38 Member]

    The pappardelle with meat sauce tends to be my favorite, but squid ink linguine also amazing. Can't go wrong with any pasta. Caesar Salad is legendary. Great spot in a cool area--date night/couples.

    This elegant Virginia-Highland spot fills up as quickly as the hand-rolled pasta fills your stomach. The narrow dining room mimics a traditional Italian trattoria with exposed brick and open kitchen. Read more

    With some of the best pastas in town, you don't want to miss La Tavola's $10 pasta special. For that price, you'll want to come back for their happy hour and $5 appetizers. Read more

    I am a die hard fan of Italian food, and one of my friends recommended me this place. The food was delicious and I would love to hang out here again with my friends.

    It's kind of expensive, and i believe it requires reservations, but it has great atmosphere, staff, and food. This is a great restaurant for dates as well.

    Comp valet @ Wells Fargo lot. Order app-size primis; basically same portions as regular but $5 cheaper! <3'd the basil spaghetti, squid ink linguini a bit too salty, flourless choco cake is perfection

    Delicious food and great wine list. Best Caesar salad! Order 2 appetizer sizes of pasta if you can't make a decision. A little taste of NYC in Atlanta. Ali and Kris behind the bar are the best!

    Unfortunately my family and I had a bad experience having left in table literally inside the kitchen. If only the food was outstanding, but it wasn’t. It was just fine. Zuppa di pesce was descent.
