Summary: great fine dining experience in midtown Atlanta; great interior; mostly pasta-drive; great cocktails and wine list; variety of good seating (bar, booth, etc.). Based on two visits a year apart (most recent was March 2024).
Big fan of this place. Had the pappardelle with wagyu (with some wine by the glass), duck fat washed bourbon, and ice cream sandwich. Pasta was one of the best meals I've had in Atlanta--firm pasta, generous portion of wagyu, buttery but not overly heavy sauce. I may order it again next, although they change their menu.
Bourbon cocktail was wonderful--hope that stays permanently. It's not overly complicated--just think of glass of bourbon but enhanced so that the mouthfeel and texture is thick and dessert-like. Serve on a single large rock with a touch of citrus.
I like the ice cream sandwich, but I'd like to try the tiramisu next time.
Vibe: love the interior--I can't describe that stuff, so just Google it. Good soundtrack too--mostly more refined 80s (Smiths, Cure, Talking Heads) with classic jazz. One thing--this place looks great in both day and night (the windows). One of my favorite nice places in Atlanta, especially since midtown and downtown don't have that many genuinely good options.
Service: Nice and helpful with questions. Also, there's no dress code, but it's nice enough place that (for a guy), you'll want either dress pants or "proper" jeans with a dress shirt. Plenty of guys with blazers here too. read more
