The food was good but the presentation was very cafeteria like. The seating really needs some work. The chairs are uncomfortable as they seem to sway in the middle. Lastly, I realize it's summer, my table was near the front door, but the temperature felt as though I were sitting outside and we had flies to complete the experience. Overall it just seems it needs a little more attention to detail. read more

My husband loves meat and I'm a strict vegan. We LOVE this place. The owner is super present and comes out to meet everyone that comes in. The food is super fresh and they have an entire vegan menu. In our times of coming here-service has always been great. This place is our date night treat when we can get there! read more

We've been meaning to try this restaurant since they opened and finally just got around to it. Wanted to love it sooooo much but it wasn't quite what we were hoping for. To start, let me say the service was awesome. The young lady, whom I should have gotten her name, was absolutely lovely. Bubbly personality, friendly and a very good server in general. Our first thought after looking at the menu was, wow, pretty pricey for Main Street Senoia. Even though everything we were told was "from Italy". The Penne alla puttanesca was good, but tiny for the price. Gluten free pizza..... hard pass. You could literally pour the ingredients off like it was soup. Both were tasty though. Just not exactly our style. The restaurant had a pretty good vibe although I'd say over lit and too bright. Another small note, if the owners do indeed read these, it was awesome to be able to try the wine we selected before we picked it out, but tiny plastic tasting cups will throw anyone out of the "fine dining" mindset. The wine however was delicious:) EDITED REVIEW AFTER OWNER RESPONCE: A little addition to my review and another two dropped stars for the grumpy passive aggressive response from owner Chris F. Well Chris F....... If you don't HAVE gluten free pizza then you loose two more stars for the waitress telling us it was gluten free when we ordered it and OVERPAID for a weak pizza soup. A business owner who responds to a decent and honest review with CAPS says a lot. And by the way Chris F, you may not have noticed, we're actually not in Italy so perhaps you don't need to try and school your ex customers with an average size portion size in Italy. And where exactly did you come up with that statistic or who even cares. I'm guessing you got that from watching the food network . I was trying to be nice with my original review but good luck keeping your sinking ship afloat. When I see the outdoor seating at Nic & Norms packed and yours always empty I now understand why. read more

Great pasta, bad desserts. We tried two pastas, the pappardelle bolognese and the pesto gnocchi. The bolognese was delicious, super deep flavor on the sauce and it stuck great to the pasta. The gnocchi was also good. The pesto was very garlic-heavy, which we liked. Serving size was... okay. It was enough, but for the price and the fact that pasta is an inherently cheap product? A little let down. Quality of the pasta was enough to make me overlook that. Dessert is where I was incredibly disappointed. We tried the limoncello cheesecake and the tiramisu. The limoncello cheesecake was DRY, to the point of being inedible. The tiramisu wasn't awful, but was mostly the "whipped marscapone," which tasted more like a custard of some sort because it was not the flavor or texture I normally expect from marscapone. It was a bit runny and overall kind of sad. If you're not a big dessert person, this place makes yummy pasta and is worth a shot. read more

I had another great experience here. I love the food and the sweet family that owns it. Its just the best! You gotta get the canolis! read more

Amazing AUTHENTIC Italian food in the heart of Senoia GA! To find a gem like that in an old country town was a real treat. Downtown Senoia is a beautiful area and having a restaurant there authentic to Rome Italy itself just blows my mind. Amazing service, amazing food, amazing atmosphere 10/10 read more

Great food and great service. Would highly recommend. The owner was our server and he was funny and awesome.

We had eaten at Borgo several years ago when they were still located in Peachtree City. We had not checked them out since their move to Senoia. However, on the Saturday of the Senoia Auto Show, most restaurants had a long wait at noon. We checked here and they did not. They basically have a patio out front with some tables, a large dining room when you enter and possibly bar seating in the back (?). Service was good. Everyone was friendly. We split a salad and each got a pasta entree. The food was good. I liked the salad a bit better than the pasta, actually. It was very flavorful. Prices seemed high, especially for lunch. I'm not sure if this was higher because of the event that day or if this was normal. That would be the only factor that might discourage me from returning. Normally, there is a lot of street / public parking in this area. read more

The sampler on dinner menu amazing. Meatballs unique. Service personal. Setting relaxing. Pasta gluten free naturally.

I came here on a busy Friday night with a date and we had no reservation. Alessandro made a way for us and was so attentive. I've been to Italy, and haven't had a great carbonara since.... until I came here! The portion size was insane and the flavor was incredible. Also had the bruschetta as an appetizer and the pop of pesto sauce made it even better! I also went to the bathroom and appreciated how clean it was as well as how clean the kitchen was from what I could see. I don't live close by, but would drive the 45 minutes to enjoy this food again!! Il cibo e molto buono! Grazie mille Alessandro e Borgo. read more

Lovely restaurant with sidewalk seating available out front. Inviting environment with friendly staff and service. We enjoyed a delicious lunch here. I had the chicken piccata and my daughter had the ravioli. Both were well prepared and delicious. The side dishes were not. The side of broccoli was overcooked and mushy. There was another unidentifiable side on my plate that looked like soggy overcooked eggplant and zucchini mixed up. I was not brave enough to even attempt tasting it. Otherwise the main dishes were great. The restaurant and bathrooms are clean and well maintained. The owner came out to meet us and I think it is important to note the restaurant is veteran owned. Will I go back? Most definitely. read more

Owner carries himself as if he's the next best thing to sliced bread. Food was mediocre and the wait was very long - almost 90 mins before our dinner came and we made reservations. Obviously can't handle the volume - total amateur hour. Moreover, they had the audacity to serve my kids a plate of buttered penne but the butter was a solid block (unmelted). Who in their right mind would do this. The food runner and the entire kitchen staff should be fired. Total disgrace. read more

Absolutely one of the best Italian dining experiences I've ever had outside of Italy. My lunch was incredible -- everything tasted truly homemade, fresh, and full of flavor. You can tell there is real passion and tradition behind every dish. What made the experience even more special was the owners. They treated me like family from the moment I walked in. Not only was the hospitality outstanding, but they even took the time to show me how they make their homemade pasta -- something I'll never forget. If you're looking for real Italian food and a genuine, warm atmosphere in the Atlanta area, Borgo Italia is a must. I'll definitely be back. read more

Borga Italia is the real deal! Great food made with real imported Italian ingredients. The Buratta and prosciutto is to die for. A family owned business that gives you an authentic experience, Cris and Alessandro are special people. I have spent years traveling in Italy and this is the same experience that you would get in any Italian restaurant in Italy. We are lucky to have this local gem on the southside. read more

This is the 4th time we have eaten at Borgo Italia. Everything that we have tried on the menu has been excellent. The owner and the waitress were very personable and helpful. I had a special dish with penne pasta, salmon, and a white sauce that was perfect, my caprese appetizer was delicious, and the house salad was very good. Our son-in-law had eggplant Parmesan it was delicious. The owner also recommended a bottle of Sicilian red wine that everyone at our table loved. Last time we were in town we ate here 2 times in the same week...and we may do the same this trip...from the Memphis TN area. This restaurant is THAT GOOD...and we are an Italian family...with roots in Italy. We can't understand the 3.6 star review. We think it is one of the best restaurants we've been to. The atmosphere and decor are warm and inviting. read more

My families favorite restaurant to attend in the area. My family being of Italian decent feel this is the most authentic food from Rome in South Atlanta. Great atmosphere, Service and staff. Highly recommend! The owners Chris and Alessandro are some of the hardest working people you will meet. read more

Placed carry out. First, sourdough bread was burnt, pizza was more like flatbread than pizza. Veggies were good, Chicken was doable, but now have bad heartburn. Sorry for the bad review but had to be honest. Ordered from Senoia, on 1/12 Had Pollo Piccata, Burratina Pizza and sourdough bread. read more

It's rare that I write reviews, but our experience at Borgo absolutely deserves one -- and for context, my wife and I are truly food obsessed. We moved here from Austin, TX and northern New Jersey, both places where excellent Italian food is easy to find. In the three years we've lived here, we've tried at least 15 restaurants in the area, and every single one has been forgettable, I'll leave it at that. Borgo changed that instantly. From the moment we walked in, I noticed something unusual: the dining room was full, yet the atmosphere was calm, lively but not loud. When we sat down, we found ourselves next to three older couples speaking Italian. That alone told me we might finally be in the right place. A lot of restaurants claim to be "family owned," but at Borgo, it's the real thing. The entire family is from Italy. The owner came over to welcome us personally and took our order with genuine warmth. His wife is the chef. His sister was checking on tables and making sure everything ran smoothly. The whole experience felt like stepping into a small trattoria in a small Italian town and I don't say that lightly. The food was exceptional. We started with the burrata with prosciutto and an arugula salad. Both were exquisite. The burrata tasted incredibly fresh and was served at the perfect temperature I don't know if it's homemade, but it certainly tasted like it. The arugula was vibrant and peppery, as if it had just been picked, and the dressing was beautifully balanced. For mains, we had the trout, the linguine with mushrooms, and the eggplant parm. Every dish was outstanding, but the eggplant parm stopped me in my tracks -- I literally closed my eyes after the first bite. It was that good. Dessert was tiramisu and the limoncello cheesecake, and both were flawless. Light, flavorful, and not overly sweet, exactly how they should be. And the service? Flawless. Warm, attentive, personal, the kind of hospitality that makes you feel like you're eating in someone's home rather than a restaurant. It took us 45 minutes to drive to Borgo and we cannot wait to go back. After three years of searching, we finally found a place that feels like the real deal. Simply put, our experience was exceptional. read more

Last night we had the best dining experience at Borgo. Alessandro, the owner, took his time explaining the menu to us and emphasized that they only used ingredients from Italy as that does make a difference to those of us that are gluten intolerant but not Celiac. After spending a long time with the menu between the 5 of us, some of us decided to go with the tasting menu where he would personally select all the menu items that were made fresh that day to go with the red wine that we also asked him to select for us. The wine was perfect which in and of itself was a feat to have all 5 of us love it! Then the food began arriving~ Oh my good gosh! He not only brought gluten-free sourdough bread for me, but these home made garlic bread knots (Pane All'aglio e parmigiano) that were nothing short of heaven on a plate. The texture of these nearly made me cry. They were staggering! Never, and I do mean EVER, have I had such an incredible roll. Trust me, you've got to get these! We also had caprese di mozzerella, the bruschetta, penne a la puttanesca, lasagna, gnocchi, manicotti, eggplant parmesan (parmigiana di melanzane), penne all'arrabbiata, and mushroom stuffed ravioli (ravioli al funghi). I can honestly say that every single dish was absolutely A-mazing! We are not an easy crowd and yet we all agreed that this meal was just fantastic. We have only been here one previous time and this time the food was way better. I think being a newer restaurant, they are still finding their stride. But last night solidified that this will become a more regular spot for us. We love their atmosphere and vibe, so give them a try! read more

A bit on the pricey side, but hey, these days what isn't!? It was to mark a special occasion for my wife and I, my retirement from work, so well worth it. Very pleased with the ambiance, the food and drink, and the family-style service. Will definitely consider returning for other special dinners and maybe lunches that might prove more in line with a retired couple's budget? Very glad to have finally been able to try BI...great job guys! read more

This is unfortunately a fail. As someone who grew up outside the Italian market in Philadelphia and lived in the heart of Boston's north end, this was an enormous let down. I know, the owner is cool and he's from Italy. But, the food was average at best and the drinks were well below average. The atmosphere was cool and the staff were polite. I suppose the most egregious part was the fake authenticity, even an air of over confidence and yet they come no where near the hype; and the price was astronomical. Update: the owner responded with a conscientious apology and was professional. I have increased the rating to 3 stars and I'll return to try more on the menu. read more

The food was delicious!! I am lactose intolerant and i was pleased to see that they have a plant-based section in their menu. I was able to order a wonderful dinner without having to worry about hidden dairy. The service was wonderful too. It was a happy place to be. Everyone, including the guests were smiling. I will continue going there every time I visit my family. read more

We are from Northern Pennsylvania. My wife is full blooded Italian. Her parents came in to visit. We live locally. This is the most authentic Italian restaurant that we've found in the 12 years we've lived in this area. when her parents come into town, this is where we meet them. Some of the reviews are a little harsh, And I hate to sound this way, but if you want to truly have an Italian dining experience from a passionate Italian business owner this is the place to go. If you want tomato gravy and some BS American excuse for Italian food don't come here. We love the owner, his menu is phenomenal and his wine choices are even better. This has become our favorite restaurant in the area. Area, the bartenders are fabulous. read more

Incredible, incredible, incredible! From the drinks, food, atmosphere and staff! Such a wonderful dinner. Took our 1.5 year old with us and he was treated so well too! Lauren is a great server and helped make our experience the best it could have been! We will definitely be back and will be telling all of our family and friends. Thank you for an amazing experience! read more

Borgo Italia - Kid friendly ! - Pizza Near Me - Senoia, Georgia

WOULD NOT RECOMMEND! Went on Saturday night and the owner was extremely rude for literally no reason, so much so my mother kept saying she felt like we were getting scolded. Also, the food was about as average tasting as it gets while also being very over priced. Its basically regular Italian food that you get charged premier prices for and you get yelled at the whole time. Theres plenty of good restaurants in downtown senoia and its best you pick a different one before this rude, pretentious owner ruins your saturday night like he did mine and my families. read more

Being generous because they seem to try really hard. Went on a busy Saturday and they managed well. Make a reservation for the weekend. Venue is relatively small but they have a bar in back. There are a few draft brews available but not a large selection, what they have is good. I had the lasagna which was exactly the way I like it, very meaty with not much ricotta. The sauce is very good. I think they may have some growing pains but nothing they can't work through. I like the place and will be back. I recommend it read more

Bad service. Pasta under cooked. Had to get up and ask again for water and even bill. Waiter dropped off food - then just left immediately - empty glasses all around. No one came by and asked us if we wanted anything or how was it. Server could not find who to give coffee to - those guests had left - so she gave it to me! I drank it. Paid bill and left. Waste of time. read more

Stopped in for lunch. The inside is small but quaint with a nice aesthetic. We were quickly sat and the owner plus one other waiter took care of us the entire time and were attentive. The drinks from the bar were came out quick and were made well. We started with bruschetta which was fresh and light. My wife ordered the pollo piccata and I got the manicotti alla napoletana. Both were light and seasoned well and ended up being the perfect potions for lunch. We opted for coffee afterwards which was ground and made to order. Definitely worth checking out and very happy to have a great Italian restaurant in the area! read more

I was incredibly excited to hear about and see the move to Senoia! This new location is absolutely fantastic and I'm incredibly happy for the Folchittos, congrats guys! The place was much more spacious, the aesthetic is modern and rustic, very cleanly, had courteous wait staff, and the food is fantastically delicious as always. A fantastic place for a solid meal, family get together, or an intimate dinner. If you have not had the opportunity to check out Borgo, do yourself a favor and stop by for the best Italian food in the area. Cheers! read more

This was A.MA.ZING!! We chose Borgo Italia for our Friday Night Supper Club and it was better than I had anticipated. It's a darling little restaurant right on the main street in Senioa. Clean, perfectly comfortable, soft music. My husband suggested the $50 per person special where each person gets 2 appetizers, 2 entrees and a dessert. When our friends arrived they chose the same thing. Our waiter was one of the owners and he explained that they choose the freshest, most recently made pastas, so we didn't even have to make any decisions. Boy was he right! Of course our table ended up with 8 appetizers and 8 entrees! The food arrived quickly and just kept on coming! It was hard to choose a favorite as everything was delicioso! The desserts weren't my favorite, but maybe I was just too full. It was definitely a memorable experience and we will be back! read more

Had heard mixed reviews about borgo so I had to try it for myself to see. Made a Rez and arrived on time. I was seated right away. Our waiter had a lot of energy but unfortunately his Italian accent made it difficult to understand him. He did a good job, checked on us often and was family and knew the menu very well. The problem was the food quality. Out of all our dinners I think the manicotti was as the only thing that was perfect. Everything else was tougher than shoe leather. The pork dish was the worst. The chicken piccata was totally lacking in tenderness and moistness. Totally overcooked. We didn't send it back for fear of insulting them. No chicken parmigiana. It's supposed to be authentic Italian, and chic parm is American Italian. lol. True story told to me! All in all, it was ok but certainly not worth $140.00 with a tip. No wine or drinks. read more

Borgo is one of the few restaurants where I can take my family and *everyone* is happy. This visit was no exception. I'm a foodie, and for me, this place is as good as you can get anywhere close to getting genuine Italian food. The food matters, and so does the service. I recommend the bruschetta appetizer as well as the prosciutto and burrata. Both are excellent. For entrées, if you are a mushroom fan--which I am--you will not find better mushroom ravioli anywhere! Lobster ravioli is also great. Others of us had salmon and manicotti. No one left disappointed, and I had a guest from New York who can affirm that Borgo is "real deal" Italian. I also tried the amaretto sour cocktail. I had 2 of them, which should tell you something. Very good. It's unusual for me to have more than one. Finally, Alexandro and his team were so accommodating. It's really feels as if you are eating in their home. We felt like they treated us as if we were the only people in the restaurant. HIGHLY recommend! read more
