    Old fashion
    Mikki E.

    Thursday, my partner surprised me with a birthday dinner here, and I'm glad he did... We had such a good time. The food was fresh and flavorful. The drinks were deliciously strong (I love a good old fashion). We experienced quality customer service, and the staff were extremely attentive. To our pleasant surprise, the restaurant was nicely decorated for Valentines Day. Giving the restaurant a very whimsical and romantic vibe. We ordered meatballs as a starter, which pair well with complimentary warm bread. I ordered the Miller, and my love ordered the shrimp scampi with a side of pasta. Literally, everything placed in front of us was delicious. Chef kiss! Don't take my word for it; try it yourself, and thank me later!

    bread service

    This place is absolutely worth the hype!!!! I have been dying to come here for years and I finally got the chance to come for a friends birthday. We had a reservation on a Thursday evening and it was quiet and quaint which was great. The valet parking was also super convenient but there is also tons of street parking! We got a great table for the 6 of us in the front of the restaurant and it felt super intimate which was awesome. This place also takes their theming very seriously which really adds to the fun. The biggest problem I have with this place and the reason it will get a 4 is that I found the service to be extremely lack luster and I am not the only one to complain about that.... Our waiter was really nice but extremely forgetful and at times just left us alone for too long when we needed refills, more bread etc. Either way, on to the dishes. The bread service was delicious and the herby butter it comes with is great! You gotta get the calamari to go with the bread because then the most delicious thing to do is DIP YOUR BREAD IN THE CALAMARI SAUCE!!!! omg that was just so delicious!!!!! We also got the salad with burratta and it was good but the calamari was the stunning appetizer. On top of that, I will say their portion sizes are STUNNING! My pasta plate was massive. I got the Miller's Rhapsody pasta and it was absolutely declious. Creamy and a great sauce truly a fantastic meal! My main complaints with this place will be the service and the fact that the menu doesn't really describe what is in each dish. But food is so tasty I can almost get past those things!

    such a fun but quaint italian spot between vahi and inman park. most people know it for their themed decorations. we went in september (halloween decor) and it was so cute. definitely the pricey side for drinks and meal but the expierence is definitely what you pay for. would be a fun date night spot. service was great, no complaints.

    Had a wonderful experience here. Came here for a birthday and wow did we have fun. The ambiance is so cool. Rn it's a circus and feels like a clown just went absolutely insane in decorating it. Our server was absolutely great. He kept us going all night and was 10/10. We did the tasting menu. It was a bit strange. Some things shareable, some not. Ie everyone got a giant thing of fried calamari which felt like way overkill. The food was the only thing I'd take a star off for, but I didn't try the menu food. So that could change. Overall totally worth a visit.

    I came here for my birthday dinner this year and I am very happy with the overall experience. The entire restaurant was decked out with Christmas decorations. It's a very small cozy vibe, which is the only downside because your tables are very close to the other patrons. The food was delicious. The warm bread and garlic butter was so good. I ordered their specialty cosmopolitan for Christmas, which was super cute and decorated. I also had the lobster fradiavlo with linguine and it was absolutely delicious. My date had the Miller's pasta and it was not as flavorful as we would have liked. Not something I would recommend others ordering. Overall, it was a really nice experience from start to finish. I would definitely recommend this for anyone celebrating a birthday or a special occasion.

    This is a very cute place with floor to ceiling decorations. They offer free valet parking, please make sure to tip, or you find street parking. All the servers were very nice and friendly. The place is a little cramped inside but totally worth it, it creates more of an intimate setting for everyone. The pasta is very good, but a tad overpriced in my opinion. I would still go back though! The gnocchi was a little too soft but still good. The veal was delicious, and so was the bread they provide in the beginning!!! The drinks were good but steep in price.

    Crazy expensive prices

    This place is crazy expensive for what you get - Olive Garden quality food. We had 5 adults and 1 toddler in our group to celebrate a birthday. Our table was in the far back of the restaurant, which as other reviewers have correctly noted, is brighter and not as "themed" as the front of the restaurant. The high chair came with a melted jolly rancher stuck in the middle of the seat. Perhaps this foreshadowed the remainder of the meal. The service here was incredibly disappointing. We asked our server, Ana C, if the toddler needed to order their own adult entree or if there were kids menus available (the restaurant's policy is that no sharing is allowed). Ana told us that there was not a kids menu, and that they only served beverages in glassware. Given the "under the sea" theming, with whimsical cut outs hanging from the ceiling that a kindergarten teacher would hang on a bulletin board, we were surprised that a kids cup wasn't an option. Oh well. We ordered the toddler a plain lemonade, which ended up being $10 (as seen on the receipt included). We had no idea there was a lemonade mocktail on the menu, but instead of Ana offering this to us, we received a standard (probably Minute Maid) glass of lemonade with a bendy straw for $10. Knowing it would cost that much, we might have been open to it. Instead, we were deceived. It took asking her twice for the lemonade to finally arrive to the table. No refills either. To our surprise, Ana then brought out a kids menu! The kids menu was prix fixed and was $20. Instead, we ordered the toddler a side of fettuccine alfredo, at Ana's suggestion, because that was more affordable. As seen on the receipt, a side of fettuccine alfredo costs $18. The portion size was hardly a salad plate. There was no flavor to be had. This was evident in several entrees. The Miller's Rhapsody was described as having a "lasagne sauce" - there was no meat in the sauce at all. The filet had no seasoning. The highlight of the meal was the bread service. Somehow, that was complimentary. We enjoy supporting local businesses and don't mind paying extra for quality food, service and ambiance. This place was a disappointment to say the least. Indeed, this place looks great on Instagram. The restaurant's marketing team certainly hit it out of the park there. However, this place has mediocre food, for comically, astronomically high prices. Save yourself some money and go to Olive Garden. Or spend the same amount and go to La Grotta and have a much better meal. At least at Olive Garden, you can enjoy your mediocre microwaved flavorless pasta without feeling like you got scammed. When you're at Amore E Amore, you are NOT family!!! TLDR: Overpriced (seriously) and under-seasoned food, underwhelming service. Save your money and appetite for somewhere else!

    Chicken Parm and Eggplant Parm

    A cozy Italian restaurant? Sign me up. We went in for a dinner on a Thursday night and it was pretty packed. There is valet parking for this location right next to it. We were started off with some fresh bread and garlic butter which I absolutely loved. Devoured. We ended up ordering a chicken Parm and eggplant Parm for entrees. I would say they were pretty up par. The flavor was there, although I think it could have been a bit more seasoned. Overall better than most Italian spots I have had. We ended up getting Tiramisu for dessert. It was pretty disappointing. The cherries were a bit confusing and overall the dish lacked the coffee flavor. Overall I would recommend.

    Took my friend here for her birthday back in March. It was recommended to us by a coworker and neither of us knew what to expect outside of Italian cuisine. First and foremost, the decoration, is absolutely one of kind. They gave us birthday hats because we were celebrating and birthday and at some point at the end of the night I remember their being singing --amongst the entire restaurant lol. Oh, and the food, was absolutely delicious. I had the lasagna and it was sooo cheesy and good I pretty much ate the whole thing in setting.

    I went over Thanksgiving weekend with a group of girlfriends. It was a fun experience like everyone else has said. The Christmas decorations were very cute and you can tell they put a lot of effort and time in decorating the restaurant from the outside all the way to back of the restaurant. However, I did not really enjoy my food and I was a little disappointed as I love Italian food. I ordered the Fettuccine Alfredo but the pasta was overcooked so it was soft and mushy. Maybe it was accidental and never happens, but I was let down. The bread and butter that came before the meals were delicious!! I wish I could had taken those home. It was kinda weird that it wasn't served with a plate so I was cutting the bread on the table The service was good but I felt a little rushed. It was fun for the Christmas decorations but felt it was overpriced.

    Miller pasta

    What a wonderful experience! This has truly been one of the better restaurants I have been to in Atlanta and was strongly recommended to anybody! The nondescript storefront would never let you guess that you would be walking into Alice's Wonderland behind the doors. They currently have a circus thing ongoing and right from the entrance you're totally immersed in that experience. The party hats, the party flavor is on the drinks, the menu they all incorporate the circus theme. They had a magician for the night who performed fun tricks. The highlight, however remains the impeccable service and the meal itself. The service was prompt with no delays in an easy flow. All of the servers were amazing! The warm bread with table butter is such a delightful way to start the meal. For our appetizers we ordered fried calamari, meatballs and lobster bisque. The lobster bisque was divine! Would definitely recommend trying it. For dinner we got the Caesar salad, linguine with shrimp, Miller pasta, and steak. Everything was delicious! I would be hard pressed to choose a favorite but I think the steak one by a small margin. The dessert we tried the lemon sorbet, crème brûlée, and lava cake. The crème brûlée stole that round! Overall: a fantastic dining experience. Will definitely come back!

    This was amazing. It was my boyfriend and Is anniversary, we went early and were the first people in there but it wasn't awkward. So many details in this place, the ambiance is great. They had a fortune teller that read our cards, and the food was AMAZING. I got the gnocchi and my boyfriend got the lobster ravioli, no complaints.

    Vodka gnocchi
    Nitya C.

    I finally came to one of the most talked about Atlanta Institutions. We came on a Wednesday with a reservation made 2 weeks prior, definitely need your reservation! The decor is definitely special! I was so excited to experience the Christmas season vibes. The food was also absolutely delicious. I cannot recommend the vodka gnocchi more. The filet mignon and lobster bisque are also very yummy. Unfortunately, the service was quite strange. Our waitress kept coming to the table to ask for orders every 2 minutes as we enjoyed the bread and wine and caught up. She would roll her eyes every time we mentioned needing more time. And when we originally said we wanted to skip the appetizers and go to entree, she became visibly annoyed and said, "wow okay" so we felt bad and ordered the bisque. Overall I'm glad I came to the restaurant for the experience but I would not return. Also there is free street parking all around if you are lucky but also valet is always an option.

She also clued us into the fact that you can get all of their entree pastas in appetizer size! This means we were able to try more pastas as well as enjoy an app and dessert. We ordered a bottle of Nero D'Avola, which was smooth and delicious. We got the meatballs as our appetizer, which were super tender and full of flavor. We split the rigatoni alla vodka, fettucine ai funghi, and tagliatelle bolognese. All were perfection. I loved the creaminess of the alla vodka, which had a kick of spice from the chili oil. I loved the herbiness and freshness of both the ai funghi with its sage and the bolognese with its rosemary. The tiramisu was the only dish that was just ok. I would much rather have espresso drenched ladyfingers than coffee liquor. But it was still good so I cannot complain. The waitress also surprised us with prosecco with a lemon rind twist to celebrate the fact that we had just closed on our first ever home. All in all - it was a perfect evening.

We did arrive here a bit early for our reservation but were seated right next to the open kitchen, so it felt quite crowded and cramped. It's a very, very small restaurant and it was freezing where we sat because we were under the vents. Our server, Mary Catherine, was a treat and she took good care of us. She took our drink orders, though I didn't drink tonight. For appetizers, we started with the calamari and stuffed clams. They also offered complementary bread and olive oil basket that was served warm, yum! Our food orders came out pretty fast actually. The calamari was not your typical fried calamari - it was delicious and loved the mix of raw onions in it for that fresh bite. I'm not a fan of clams so I didn't try this, but heard it was just breading and can't really taste the clam taste. For my entree, I ordered the spaghetti pomodoro with meatballs. I had been dreaming about this since making the reservations and it did not disappoint. The pasta was cooked al dente and the sauce was wonderful. I did think the meatballs were a tad too salty for my taste and I'm glad I opted out of the freshly grated parm because I feel like that would have made everything saltier. After our meal, they brought out free dessert for the birthday celebrants. Nothing but raves were said after our dinner here and we're definitely looking forward to coming back here again.

Free small parking lot in front. Free extra parking across the street. The total was about $150 for 2 appetizers, 2 entrees, 2 drinks, and a dessert. Pros The quiet, intimate, and classy atmosphere was exactly what I needed for my family. When we first arrived, our table was not ready and we had to wait outside. However we were given continuous updates on when the table would be ready, they apologized, and they were very understanding. Considering we were a large party in an intimate space, we understood and only waited about 20 minutes before the table was ready. You could tell the food was fresh, the orders came fast, and the service was amazing. The fresh in house pasta took everything to the next level. It was the perfect night out. Cons The establishment is intimate so I do not think it would ideal for extra large parties. I had a party of 8 at 8PM but I dont know if they could have accomodated us if it was any earlier during prime dinner time. I wish they had a better parking situation but its not bad and its free.

I randomly decided that I wanted Italian so we decided to check them out for the first time. Mezza Luna is located in a very small plaza with a tight parking lot. I'm so glad that I read the reviews in advance about parking, but I still wasn't prepared for what we saw. Surprisingly, there were 2 or 3 open spots when we visited around 7pm. We had reservations and were quickly seated after being greeted. The restaurant itself was quite intimate, offering only a few tables that were laid out in a manner that had us all quite close. But it worked! Since we had our son with us, they already had a high chair ready for us but he slept through the entire dinner, which also shows how peaceful it actually was in there. I started with a glass of chianti and it paired perfectly with the complimentary starter bread. That focaccia was so fresh! The crust had a great crunch but it was still soft and fluffy inside. We went with the meatball appetizer special which included 4-5 meatballs covered in marinara, fresh tomatoes and burrata. They were delicious, although the tomatoes being cold was a bit of a surprise. For dinner, I went for the chicken piccata and my partner opted for the chicken marsala. Both were great and packed with flavor. Such an unassuming place with tons of flavor waiting inside - perfect for date night or just a nice Italian dinner!

    We used to visit Baraonda when it was near the Fox, so we were excited to see it reopen much closer…read moreto home. Happy to report it's even better than we remembered. We kicked things off with the bread service (I have a carb problem--truly) and the tri-colore pizza. The pizza was fantastic and worked perfectly as a shared appetizer. For mains, we ordered the halibut special, linguine and clams, and the pappardelle with lamb ragu. The halibut was the standout for me, absolutely loved it. The other two dishes were very good as well, though the lamb ragu could've used a bit more tomato flavor. Overall, a really solid meal and a great value. We'll definitely be back!

    I loved going to the Baraonda when it was in Midtown, though I'm not sure if this location is the…read moreexact one, perhaps just a similar name or maybe they moved to Sandy Springs. Needless to say, we enjoyed our experience here for dinner. Husband and I came to celebrate my birthday - he was a bit upset they didn't offer anything for my birthday even though he notated it on the reservation, but I didn't really care for it as I don't like having the attention on me. This place is hard to miss as it's right on Roswell Rd. There is complimentary valet parking available, but there's also free parking at a deck just a few steps away from the restaurant entrance. We were greeted by the hostess as soon as we walked in and the restaurant was already very busy for a Saturday 6 pm dinner. Our server was fine, and the food was decent. I opted for the blackberry fiz mocktail, which was super sweet at first, but with a good mix, it was super refreshing. For starters, we shared the eggplant balls (a must get here!) and the bread service. The eggplant balls were definitely shareable and were probably our favorite thing we ate. The bread service you could probably skip - we wish it was served with vinegar instead of just oil and an olive tapenade. For entrees, I ordered one of the dinner specials, grilled branzino served with broccolini and potatoes. My husband ordered the ravioli. I really enjoyed the branzino, it was tender and the skin was cooked crispy. I loved that the broccolini was charred enough, but wish the potatoes were cooked a bit more. The capers added the needed saltiness to the dish, though I wish this was served with lemon or something to balance out the flavors. My husband enjoyed his ravioli but found it too heavy with the cream sauce. We thought this was a decent place for dinner, but nothing really stood out besides the eggplant balls.

    Ooooh this place is a dream! The outdoor (enclosed) patio in the winter isn't just a last resort…read morereservation option, it should be your TOP destination. It's cozy, (plenty warm) and romantic! It was 32 degrees outside, but completely comfortably warm, inside. You truly wouldn't know you weren't inside. Any way, I've eaten my way through Inman Park but somehow hadn't yet indulged in the delectable Sotto Sotto. This might just be my new favorite Italian in Atlanta. It was absolutely delicious. Across the table (thanks to the half portion option), we tried at least 8 items on the menu! Each one was more special then the next. Our incredible server Kagen (sp?) walked us through each section of the menu absolutely perfectly. As a result we ended up ordering some of his favs from across the menu. In my photos you can see what we ordered, but my recommendation is to simply ask your server what they like and you'll undoubtably get something stellar. In a market of many, great Italian options, Sotto Sotto might just be the BEST and my new fav!!! I absolutely can't wait to return.

    Food:10/10 Ambiance:10/10…read moreService:-0/10 This place was amazing the food and atmosphere created an amazing experience for my group ,... However the server we had tonight was one of the worst experiences I've had especially for a place that is trying to sell an upscale dining environment he greeted the table by saying (after we asked how he was doing) "I'm doing f-ing horrible I'm tired and feel like sh*t we had such a busy night last night" he was not very knowledgeable about menu or drinks and his overall appearance gave very much unhygienic he also forgot to put in our food order so we waited double the time and said that since we already had appetizers and the other table did not have any food that we could wait to order food, also just assumed how someone in my group wanted there steak cooked so had to wait for that to be redone, he was all over the place and did not check in on us very often we needed things like refills or salt pepper etc. and went without because bad service I don't think he should have been working he obviously did not want to be there he also failed to mention that the kitchen was closing so we did not get to try the desserts. There were a couple of other things but don't want a 5 page review I cannot remember his name but a taller white guy with a messy bun and tired eyes. We still left a tip because that's what you do when you go out but if he treated his other tables like he did us I wouldn't be surprised if we were the only ones that tipped. I suggest not going on a busy night to get good service I guess. My group was 4 ppl 2 couples trying to enjoy a nice double date without the craziness of v-day next time we will celebrate days before. Will for sure be going back and hope you give them a try but if that's how the waiter greets himself please go ahead and ask for a different server!!!!
