    Just off the Square in Covington Ga. The square is pretty awesome at night, (haven't seen it in day light) lots of people kids, youth, dogs, older couples and all in between. Bar Oscar is a hopping place inside and out. The staff was one of the busiest and efficient I've ever experienced. I was here traveling & spending the night before moving on. I quick bite a drink and off to bed. The meatball small plate was 3 Big meatballs loaded with a house marinara sauce. I think I got some on my blouse, I'll lick it clean later, it came with their house bread, I'm running out of adjectives yum. Liked the vibe here, everyone seemed to be enjoying the food, drinks and atmosphere. When in this part of Ga. Give them a try.

    They have done a good job making this a nice bar/dinner area. My advice is not to come hungry but come here to have a couple adult beverages and munch on the tapas style Italian food. Everything we had was very tasty but the portions are small and light. We ended up getting the meatballs at the end to try and feel full. The drinks are good and the service is really good. I do suggest they cut the prices just a bit to make it more in line with the area. They are almost Atlanta prices, Good for them if that works though.

    Food and service are incredible! We've been twice, and being local, we are so happy the menu changes frequently giving us new items to try. Loved the meatballs, parm pasta, pork belly pasta, morel pasta (favorite so far), and snap pea pasta. All of the cocktails we've tried have been fantastic. The burrata and whipped ricotta were okay, and I think they would've been better if the bread was served warm. In terms of portions, I think the sizes are huge for the price and value of handmade pasta. We've taken leftovers with both visits. The Salumi Board for 2 was huge and so is the tiramisu - both items large enough to share with more than 2 people when getting multiple apps. We took our toddler on a weekday our first visit and sat inside with no issues. It was pretty quiet that day inside, so when we take her again we'll sit on the patio.

    It's very beautiful and welcoming. I did only come in for a to go order of tiramisu but loved the environment! It's amazing and the staff are dressed so professional. The ticket came in a little box that was so cute!

    Night of the derby. Enjoyed drinks on the patio before dinner. Sat us, a table for 8, inside. We ordered a few appetizers and another round of drinks. Then dinner. Oxtail. Meatballs. pasta. Meat and cheese board. It's supposedly Italian, but not your typical Italian. Classy atmosphere. Simple menu. Cool bar. Spacious patio. Food is good. I'd go back for the atmosphere and drinks and maybe the meatballs and pasta. It's unique. It's a place that will become over time. If the food was authentically Italian, it would be 5 stars. Good.

    Been going here since they first opened a few months agoz and drove back here from over two hours away just to make it to their cheese wheel cracking party. This place truly has the best, freshest pasta, cheese, and bread in the whole Atlanta area. You won't regret trying this hidden gem.

    Empty plates (obviously the food was delicious enough to distract me from taking a photo) and a crafty Pisco Sour

    What a hidden gem! This cozy spot absolutely exceeded my expectations. The atmosphere is intimate and full of charm--perfect for a relaxed night out. The food was incredible: fresh ingredients, rich flavors, and clearly made with love. You can really taste the authenticity in every bite. The staff were warm, attentive, and made us feel right at home. Many compliments to the chef! It's clear everyone there is passionate about what they do, and that energy shines through in both the service and the food. A fantastic addition to the neighborhood. The parmesan pasta, burrata, and a pisco sour are my go-to favs!

    When you first go in you have to seat yourself. We sat outside. I liked the ambiance and how the seating was set up. There were industrial fans outside to keep us cool. The menu dining outside is different from the menu dining inside. The complimentary sour bread is made in house, it wasn't my favorite thing. We got the Parmesan pasta and bolognese Bianco pasta, both were good and well sauced, we enjoyed that. The gelato flight was good as well. I would recommend this spot.

    Are reservations needed?

    No you do not typically need a reservation. We actually walked right in on a Friday evening and sat down right at the bar. Subsequent guests came in after us and were seated right away.

I started with the goat cheese pesto bruschetta for appetizers. The flavors paired well together and it was a decent size. For lunch, my friend and I shared the taco platter, which comes with 9 tacos, chips, salsa, and queso for $35. It's a great price and it was more food than we could finish. The fried shrimp tacos were the best. Shoutout to our waitress for that suggestion! They were crispy, large shrimp pieces, and flavored nicely. We also got the fried fish tacos and the ribeye tacos which were very underwhelming. Unfortunately, the entire taco platter was extremely salty. Even though we drank water throughout, we both left feeling super parched due to how salty it was. This place has potential but I'm not sure I would come back. It might be a good spot to grab a drink and hang out, but I wouldn't come here to eat. Honestly the amazing service is really what stood out and was the saving grace!

The onion rings are top tier, the fried pickles are delicious, and the wings are great. The bar staff were B and Shanna. B was the best; tentative, kind and funny. She checked on us often as newbies. Shanna is the only reason this review didn't get 5 stars. She was cold, evasive and made it seem like she was bothered by us asking questions. It was our first time there. Once she was annoyed having to take our drink order, she never said another word to us. Asking her to change the TV felt like pulling teeth. Then B came in and saved the day. The food, karaoke and B made this an good time on a Friday night. Because of the atmosphere, the indoor smoking, and the chance of dealing with Shanna again, I'd pass on going in and order take out next time.
