We stumbled on this neat little place on our last visit to Athens. It's a small place with an…read moreinteresting vibe and a great menu. We started with the crabcake appetizer, which was very good. My wife had the special, grouper with shrimp. It was well plated and delicious. I ordered the seafood fettuccine, mussels, clams, shrimp scallops and whitefish over fettuccine. Again, tasty and nicely plated. Tiramisu finished off the meal. It's a little hard to find, so call for directions if you have any questions about where they are.

Fresh pasta! We were a little cautious to our chagrin and ordered just spaghetti and mushroom ravioli and we were more than pleased with the quantity and the quality of what we received. The delivery was early on Thursday when it was supposed to be at the house, it came in a nice bag, instructions not only for cooking but how to store the leftovers, as if there would be any. They even went as far to recommend freezing if you wanted and the expiration date. We had a dinner party and I usually go to a specialty shop in NYC when there on business..............remember those days when you'd travel for business on an airplane? I'll explain what an airplane is later. I need to tap the old grey matter to remember just what the heck it was. LOL This pasta stacks up with what I'd guard with my life against pilfering from TSA and Delta personnel. So in a nutshell I'd give these guys as many stars as are in the universe if Yelp would allow me to. It is wonderful to see a new artisan business in this area and if I have anything to do with it they'll be a HUGE hit. I guess while were all staying home and earning our COVID 15 this is one heck of a way to get some of the tastiest carbs on the planet.

First time and would definitely return! They have great options for us plant based / vegan folks…read more I ordered to build my own bowl. Got the Big Mahana, which comes with 2 bases, 2 proteins and 2 veggies. I selected noodles (chilled) and kale for the base. Tofu as the protein and 3 veggies - green beans, brussel sprouts and sweet potatoes. Cilantro Vinaigrette and Citrus Ginger for the sauces. Chilled noodles hit a little different if you're not used to them. I would prefer them warmed but also didn't mind. But if you want a warm base, thy have grains you can choose from. The sauces are needed to tie the bowl together. Overall, I really loved the food. Some of my friends would say the bowl I made tasted "healthy" lol. And they wouldn't be wrong, but that's the point! Amazing customer service! I loved that he explained how it worked. And it's the small things for me - a simple suggestion to get the fountain drink version of the can since I was dining it. Goes a long way! And I'm glad he suggested it because I had multiple refills. My food was so good that I bought another bowl to take home for dinner. Thank you!!

We ate at this location this past Saturday at lunch time. We were there about 12:30 or so? A lot of…read morethe bar pans were empty or nearly empty. I had the key west chicken which was drier than the Sahara dessert. It was so dry and chewy I could barely get it chewed up enough to swallow even smothered in sauce. The sauce/dressing on top was way too much, I had a pool in the bottom of my bowl when I was done. My partner ordered the steak on her bowl and she said her steak was extremely dry as well however she liked the sweet potatoes. We ordered macaroni and cheese for the kids and it was very cold. Didn't even melt the cheese they sprinkled on top. The cheese sauce was grainy and lacked any flavor. We asked for the macaroni to be microwaved and they didn't have a microwave. He did offer to put in the oven which helped some. Still didn't taste good. Sitting in their dining room, they use the hallway to the restroom for storage. You felt like you were sitting in the kitchen. Overall we just didn't enjoy our meal here, we won't be returning. We normally love bowl places like this and I was excited for an option with different offerings but this was a huge miss for us.

Farmacia Trattoria hit every craving. Spaghetti meatballs straight-up homemade, sauce so fresh it…read moresang garlic and basil--huge, tender meatballs too, no skimping. Veal shank? Served sizzling in the pan, juicy to the bone, fell apart like butter. Those wood-fired grills, imported from Italy, fire up everything: pizzas with dough stretched daily, crust blistered just right; breads warm, crusty outside, pillowy in. Pure comfort overload. Oh, and the bolognese--silky ragu clinging to fresh pasta, slow-cooked forever. Every bite screams Italy: the aroma, the way it settles heavy on your tongue. Makes you forget you're not actually in Naples. Their food isn't just good, it transports you, straight to someone's nonna's table. Wood fire, imported grills, honest bread--it's all so true. And the wines! They don't just hand you a glass--they pair. Every dish, every sauce has a buddy tucked in their list. Spaghetti and meatballs with a crisp Chianti, veal with Barolo that cuts right through the richness. Hell, even asked for a random white once and they nailed it. Feels like the grape was chosen months ago just for that exact forkful!

What happened?!!?…read more Let me start by saying this place used to be AMAZING! Beautiful wine list, long list of Italian liqueurs, beautiful seasonal menu done expertly, and an attentive staff. It knocked our socks off and we raved about it to everyone who would listen. My husband and I went back for a nice dinner after a period of 6 or so months and were appalled at the changes. It's a completely diff restaurant. Now they have a very small menu printed on computer paper of basic (boring) Americanized Italian dishes like spaghetti and fettuccine Alfredo and pizza, only a handful of wines (like basic red or white), no more after dinner liqueurs, a short basic cocktail list, and to be honest, service was not great. Our food took an hour to get to us and was cold. The kitchen looked like they were working without a head chef and was staffed by a couple of young boys who looked straight out of high school (no ageism intended but clearly they were misguided and are not professionals). The tomatoes in our Caprese salad were mushy and over ripe. The eggplant parm was dry and cold. We complained and were able to get some money off the bill but we are so extremely heartbroken by the drop in quality! For the prices they are charging they are smoking crack. We likely won't be back unless they go back to they restaurant they used to be. I won't be surprised to see this one go out of business if this is the route they continue to take. :(

Because it doesn't exist however, the security staff that was working there was super nice and it was an older gentleman who told me I in fact, could park directly outside the front door of the restaurant despite it saying no parking because that sign was simply up for the purposes of construction period So I took him for his word and I definitely parked right in front of the restaurant and luckily did not get towed or any tickets because he was right Now onto the food. Everything is freshly made on site from all the pastas to the desserts. And I have to say this was absolutely incredible. I have never had this type of artisanal approach to Italian food outside of Italy. This is the stop. Unfortunately, it was on a Friday where I was observing no meat so I did not order any dishes with meat, however, none of the dishes, disappointed in any way shape or form. We even ordered dessert and that just blew my mind because I do not like tiramisu, but this thing was delectable. And if I had room, I would've ordered another one. Our waitress Natividad was fantastic!! she was so kind and patient and very helpful with the menu. In fact, the kitchen had made a wrong dish out of all the dishes and sent it to us, but she intercepted realizing that it was wrong. I sent it back to the kitchen had them starting on the right dish, leaving only one person in our party waiting just a few more minutes for his plate to come out. The portions are very fair however they are not super generous. So if you are sharing and you really love what you're eating be careful because the person you share it with will probably love it just as much as you do and will eat more than you really want them to. I have to come back here when I come back to Atlanta. This is everything it lives up to be from all the previous reviews I have seen online and then some.

This has become one of our premier date night spots…read more The hospitality at this place is truly outstanding. My boyfriend was running late, but he put in a special request that was fulfilled beautifully. He called ahead to say he'd be late and asked if they could start making a particular drink for me. When I arrived, they recognized me and confirmed that I wanted the drink he had requested on my behalf. I was amazed by their thoughtful service and couldn't believe they went out of their way like that. This experience was so wonderful that this spot has definitely become our go-to for Italian food in the city. The food here always impresses me. Although I've never been to Italy and can't compare it to authentic Italian cuisine, this restaurant feels comforting--almost like home. The pasta is freshly made in-house and cooked to perfection; every dish I've tried has been delicious and satisfying without being overwhelming. Despite the many popular Italian spots nearby, this place stands out for its amazing flavors and welcoming, family-oriented atmosphere. It's also an ideal spot for date nights, family gatherings, or girls' nights out. Additionally, they offer products for sale near the entrance, making it even more appealing. Also, we challenged our bartender to create a drink. We listed off favors, amoras, and alcohols we'd prefer. We listed off a few of our favorites, and the bartender absolutely dominated. The drink doesn't have a name, but my boyfriend requests it EVERYWHERE he goes and can't get it made properly anywhere else but at this location.

Il Bottegone is an absolute hidden gem!…read more I've only had their sandwiches so far, but WOW... they are incredible. You can immediately tell that everything is made with fresh, high-quality ingredients, and it really makes a difference. I ordered the Italiano, and it was hands down one of my favorite sandwiches I've had in a long time. The focaccia deserves its own shoutout because it was so light, airy, and perfectly fresh. It held everything together without being too heavy. The combination of the prosciutto and burrata was chef's kiss. It was creamy, salty, fresh, and just balanced so well. I also added the spicy oil and YUMMMM... it gave the sandwich the perfect little kick without overpowering all the other flavors. This is one of those places where every bite makes you stop and appreciate how good it is. I already know I'll be back because there are so many other sandwiches I want to try. If you're looking for an authentic, fresh Italian sandwich, don't skip this place. It's definitely one of those spots you'll find yourself thinking about long after you've finished eating.
