Solid dining experience just inside the Perimeter. We started with the calamari and it was excellent. Shared a pizza and enjoyed that to. It was a spicy soprasetta and we both thought it was quite good. The bride's pasta dish; also excellent. The fact they had New Holland Dragons Milk Stout on draft...I'm sold! Great service and an excellent dining eve. read more

Been here 5 times and never disappointed! Very fresh Calamari Fritti, cooked to perfection! Tagliatelle Scampi Portofino is one of the best pasta I've had! Also the Farfalle with crab meat was just simple and delicious... Very generous on the crab :) They have the promo $10 pizza after 10pm.. Not bad!!! Let's not forget to mention the desserts... YUM!! The California Tiramisu is SOOO GOOD!! and I love the amaretto cheesecake as well! read more

Was looking forward to eating here but upon entering noticed a really small sign stating that the prices on the menu are only if you are paying cash. There's actually a 4% increase if you plan to pay with a card. This feels purposefully misleading read more

Yesterday went with a friend for lunch to celebrate our birthdays. Have wanted to go for years after seeing it on Atlanta Eats several times. I wanted the Lobster spaghetti, which is not on the lunch menu, but our waitress said she would try to get it for me. She did. The bread was Awful... not good for an Italian restaurant. My dish was AWFUL, very little lobster, small pieces and I suspect it was logastini. I had just a few bites. My friend had an arugula salad with salmon--first piece of salmon sent back--way too well done--got the second piece, a little better, but very fishy---and the greens and dressing were so salty!! So told our lovely waitress , she was nice, that we were very disappointed, and she could see we ate hardly anything. They comped our entrees, then we chose a dessert, ice cream ball covered in chocolate, so frozen, it did have a candle for us, but we had to wait about 4 minutes till it melted somewhat so we could eat it--8 dollars and the 2 of us ate about half. Coffee was ok--Friday afternoon lunch, at noon, 6 other people there. Needless to say I will not be going back--I guess they have different cooks at dinner than they do at lunch but I will not chance it! I have been fortunate to eat at the most famous restaurants in LA, Chicago, Boston and Atlanta. All being said in talking about Cibo e Bene, I would rather and will go to Maggiannos where the bread is delicious and you can buy one pasta dish and take home one free. Fortunately my friend and I had fun talking so our birthdays were not totally ruined. read more

I have nothing bad to say about this place, it is really terrific across the board. Just try it, you'll love it. read more

A great experience, hands down. The atmosphere and menu selection made it even better. Great company. I had the Duck, amazing! Paired it with a Woodford Reserve on the rocks. Share a Tierra Mesu, for dessert... best I have had in a long time. Finally, even without a reservation, we were sat pretty promptly in a full restaurant. Wonderful hostess, server and staff as a whole. Way to go! Great recommendation. Try it out. read more

A nice little spot just round the Corner from me and Mr S new place. Met up with a couple of friends for a mid week dinner. The interior is a little bit dark but the seating is comfy and the tables not too crammed. I'm currently not drinking but my companions had mixed drinks from the very interesting looking cocktail menu and delighted in gloating about how good they were (Damn you Mike Y!!) The bread is H&F and as a result we polished off 3 baskets and probably could have done a 4th. Shared some appretizers all of which were kind of meh. The meat balls were ok but how excited can I get about meatballs, the arancini likewise. I was disappointed in the duck speck. Myself and all 3 of my dining companions are greedy charcuterie fans and the fact that this dish was drowned in olive oil meant there was no melt in the mouth sensation for the cured meat just a slimy sliver of something which could have been anything but mostly just tasted of oil. Entrees we also shared one of the pizza's which was nice tho to be fair i do prefer the dough texture of double zero. The goat cheese chive gnocchi had no flavour of either goats cheese or chives and the sauce was a little tart for my taste. The gnocchi themselves were fairly stodgy. The final dish was the Papardelle which had a duck egg carbonara sauce and was undoubtedly the star or the cooked food we had that evening. i seriously could have beaten off my dining companions with a stick to eat the whole dish myself and it was only my gracious English manners and the 3 baskets of H&F bread which stopped me. For dessert we shared the assortment of high road gelati, which were over frozen and the trio of flavours we got varied from the bland (butter praline) to the inedible (black molasses and bacon) In conclusion it's a nice looking spot but I'd be tempted to come back just to hang out at the bar and drink some first rate mixed drinks and fill up on bread read more

They have a wide variety of choices on the menu and an expansive wine offering to match. Comfortable decor and subtle lighting. Our server, Imran, was knowledgeable about the menu items and knew just the right level of attentiveness for our table. Our salmon dish was cooked to perfection and the pizza was perfect. The only drawback to the experience was the kitchen crew started doing their end of the night deep cleaning routine, mopping the kitchen floor etc etc while there were several guests still eating . The smell of cleaning chemicals was overpowering to the point where we couldn't taste our food, so we didn't finish our entrees. We took dessert to go, so we could eat at home in a "bleach free environment". All in all a good restaurant with an imaginative chef and great service to match. Just make sure you're done before the mops and chemicals come out. read more

The only positive about this restaurant was the service, which was great. I ordered the ravioli and what arrived was a very messy unappealing appearing entree. Somewhere beneath the tomatoes, sliced onions, etc. was the ravioli. They were overstuffed with filling. The entire dish had no distinct taste. We will wisely spend our money elsewhere and not return to this restaurant. Very disappointing. read more

AMAZING ITALIAN FOOD...The name says it all food & drink..they are both great at this small Italian eatery. I have eaten here several times and it is always outstanding. The pasta dishes are a stand out, my favorite is the pistachio rigatoni. The pizzas are about the best you will find in ATL. I like the Brooklyn. Chef Linda is awesome and can always be seen cooking in the open kitchen. The bar scene here is always hopping, they take their drinks serious here with award winning drinks like the absent minded professor ( their take on a Manhattan) The place is small but very well run it is usually busy but worth the wait or you can sit at the bar overlooking the kitchen and watch all the action. read more

Lovely neighborhood Italian restaurant. Portions are generous and the service superb. The Brussels sprouts and bacon appetizer was decadent and delicious. Server was excellent on refills of water and ice tea. Manager came out to check on us. I always like that. Great value. If I was a local I'd be a regular. read more

Great lunch! Ordered the chicken Parmesan sandwich and side of fries. Fresh bread that was fantastic was brought out to munch on. The sandwich and fries were presented on a wood platter and the fries were the best ever! Fresh cut and perfectly done. The chicken parm itself was good, but the bread again was fantastic. $10 lunch was well priced and scout mob ever better. read more

Cibo e Beve - Chicken parm on the best read, - Italian Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

So happy to have chosen this spot for an early dinner. We chose the pate/terrine, chopped salad, scampi risotto, duck ragout, meatballs, fried goat cheese and finished with the cereal milk panna cotta. Every dish was executed and seasoned well. I'll definately return with more friends and family. read more

I went there again. Great job on social distancing. Really one of the best Italian in town. Great service extremely attentive

Great little upscale Italian eatery in an unexpected location. Not too long after its opening a big group of us honored a reservation and had really good food. Hubby and I are not fans of upscale foo-foo joints but both of us left with high opinions of this restaurant. Our starter was the Cibo meatballs with sauce. Amazing taste and flavor in the meatballs and sauce. Savory and delicious. My entree choice was: Amish Farm Raised Chicken alla Francese: meyer lemon butter, herb risotto, broccolini Delicious. The chicken was incredibly tender and juicy. The only thing that perturbed me was the risotto. Beyond al dente. Half raw. Perhaps that's the way mamma likes it? For dessert, my husband and I shared the classic tira misu. Classic Tira Misu: pavesini cookies, illy caffe, cocoa nibs, mascarpone mousse It is served in a little flip-top storage jar. Cute as a button but very decadent and delicious. The husband that vehemently dislikes most tira misu couldn't stop eating it. That says something. One of our friends ordered something not on the menu. A bowl of spaghetti and meatballs. Same meatballs and sauce found under "small bites". That's what I'll be getting next time along with the tira misu. By all means, be cool and make a reservation. read more

Nice Italian restaurant off Roswell road, where they have a good selection of wines, cocktails, pizza, pasta. We had Il DiAvolo pizza, Tartufo Pie, Brussels sprouts appetizer, and Strawberry beets salad. All food was great tasting and as expected. I'd recommend this place. read more

The salmon salad is just sooooo yummy that I can't seem to branch away & try something new! Next time I will. Our server David was spectacular tho... That counts for something! Definitely going back... Maybe for brunch tomorrow!! read more

This restaurant has a great ambiance, nice booths and cozy atmosphere. We had a reservation for 8PM, arrived 15 min early and were seated right away by a very friendly hostess. The service was good, but lacked a bit on spontaneity. While the appetizer was delicious (roasted brussels sprouts with bacon), the entrees were just ok. Seafood pasta had some overcooked calamari. The dessert was just regular (cannoli). Will return to try the pizza someday. read more

Went this evening for dinner with my wife, we were very eager to give it a try since moving to north buckhead from midtown. Unfortunately we didn't feel it lived up to the hype. I ordered the lobster spaghetti, it was surprisingly bland and had an overpowering flavor of onion ( I easily pulled an amount equaling a half of an onion and left it on a side plate ). The sauce as well as the lobster lacked flavor. Very disappointed considering the 33.00 price tag for the dish. My wife ordered the Cacio e Pepe which seemed very basic. It wasn't anything to write home about, it seemed loaded with butter, not olive oil and didn't impress for the 22.00 price. Waitress was nice, decor was well put together, that being said we wouldn't return. I can still taste onions and I'm over an hour removed. Very disappointed in the dinners. read more

Just what my neighborhood needs! Italian that is delicious but not super heavy. Had dinner with 2 girlfriends there, the waiter suggested the perfect wine based on what we told him we liked (the wine list is all Italian, and you may know from my other reviews I am a Australia/New Zealand wino usually) and he was very familiar with the menu too. Nathan - great service. Thanks! One friend had a pizza, one a pasta (lobster spaghetti!) and I had the caeser salad. All was presented well and tasted great. OH and the calamari app - very light and tasty. I am almost worried about how much I like this place, since it is a block from home! Oh and a word to the wise from the hostess - definitely make reservations, especially on the weekends! read more

Cibo e Beve is my new favorite place. Nova and I have seriously been three times in six weeks. Over the last month and a half, we've gotten an assortment of appetizers and entrees. The deconstructed pizza has been a favorite of ours. This assemble-it-yourself snack includes a stack of flatbread, a jar of tomato jam, a soft mound of fresh mozzarella and several slices of shaved Italian ham. We've also tried (and liked) the crunchy/creamy arancini and succulent meatballs, the second best I've ever had. I've had great success with the pasta dishes, too. My first visit I had the rich and herby sheep's milk ricotta with sage and a brown-butter sauce. Our second time out I ordered the ribbon-like bucatini with San Marzano tomatoes. Relatively simple looking, it had deep porcine flavors thanks to bacon and pancetta in the sauce. Nova has been equally satisfied with her chicken alla francese, broccolini and herb risotto...so much so she's ordered it twice! In fact, she ordered a smaller lunch portion during our only midday visit. That time around I got the meatball sub. The near-perfect meatballs were tucked in a toasted roll and smothered in sauce, then topped with cheese. It was really quite good. Even though we've never had room for dessert after eating at Cibo, we did force ourselves to try it once. Nova got a light and relatively petite portion of tiramisu while I had the red velvet zeppole. While it didn't have much in the way of red velvet flavor, the zeppole tasted like beignets and came with a decadent mascarpone dipping sauce. So save room for dessert -- if you can. read more

I've been back to Cibo a few times since my first review and i have to give it an extra star. The cocktail program really is amazing and the food has improved since it first opened (it was already good, just needed some tweaking). They still can't seem to get the pricing right on some of their menus - I ordered a Chatham County Line cocktail which was $10 on the menu but it rang up $14 when they brought me the bill. They happily adjusted it though so no biggie. This is definitely a top, hot spot in Sandy Springs right now and for good reason. read more

Ok so this should really be 3 and a half stars. I've edged it down to 3 because although there were some truly outstanding dishes these were specially made for our group and therefore would not be available if i just rocked up there, bummer! We were seated at the chefs table, a great location at the back of the restaurant where you can see the kitchen. I would definately recommend if you are in a large group. The service was excellent. They didnt have the wine I wanted so my server brought some for me to try, I gave him my price range and he stayed within that. I found a wine I loved. Their wine list is good, a great variety but not so extensive you cant read it before the evening is out! They also make there own ginger ale which I definately want to try if i go again. In general the starters were great.The tomato sauce on the meatballs was amazing. The crispy brussels were good. The star of the show for the entire evening was the burrata cheese, OMG! I can only describe this as a cross between ricotta and mozerella cheese. It came on a bed of olives, eggplant, zucchini and tomato in a balsamic dressing. The cheese itself was dressed with a sweet red pepper sauce. Amazing! Unfortunately this is not on the menu, It really should be, if any staff member reads this please please put this on the menu. The main reason this restaurant does not rate higher for me is because of the mains. I got the sausage rigatoni in a spice vodka sauce. I didnt really think much of it. Although I enjoyed it and ate it, I had eaten the whole plate without really a second thought! At $18 for a small-ish pasta main i thought it was overpriced. We tried a sample of some desserts. They were all good. If you are in the area its definately worth checking out. Especially if they put the burrata cheese on the menu! read more

Great spot - glad to have them join a handful of solid restaurants opening outside the perimeter. I went for a late night drink and some apps. I'm always v. appreciative of places that don't hustle you out if you're one of the last few guests at the end of the night. CeB let us take our time and relax, which you don't always see in restaurants. Cocktails were fantastic. Classic Sazerac was a little heavy on the Absinthe, but good nonetheless. They definitely put a lot of thought into the program there and back it up with all the "right" touches for a place that prides itself on the bar program (ie, nice ice...not those horrible "hotel ice" chips). I'll definitely return and encourage others to try it out! read more

Went for lunch and was completely impressed--from our server's passion for the menu and his descriptions to the amazing flavor of the meatballs and tortellini bolognese (scat...something or another). Def want to go back and try more. Updated my stars after going for dinner. More meatballs! And a lovely pasta dish -- great service. All my friends enjoyed their meals as well (salmon, veal, all excellent). read more

So glad I tried this place. From start to finish, we enjoyed everything! As their name implies (pronounced "She-Bow e Bev") there's great food as well as drinks here. We had the Terrine (daily special) which was so delicious! The Chopped Salad was nice, made with just the right amount of ingredients and dressing. I HIGHLY recommend getting the Goat Cheese Fritelle - it's served with a delicious bacon gastrique and crushed pistachios. The Scampi Scampi was really good too. We also tried the meatballs (2 large per order) and the Duck Confit Ragout (daily special) which they served with hot chili flakes and parm cheese on the side. The food is so tasty, it's obvious they use fresh ingredients and prepare your dish to order. Oh, and they offer a GLUTEN-FREE PASTA substitution. I'll definitely be back (hopefully very soon!). read more

This was my first time dining at Cibo and I was very impressed. A friend and I went for dinner. The food is very good and so are the drinks. Try the "hunny pot" cocktail. Loved it! From the time I arrived to the time I left the service was excellent! Special thanks to our server Shawncy for the food and drink recommendations and for exceeding our service expectations. He has a great personality! Also thanks to the co-owner Mr. Gianni for stopping by our table and thanking us for dining at his restaurant. I will be back! read more

Way more misses than hits. We came for a birthday dinner and walked away pretty disappointed in the food and preparation. Two of the items: Sausage pizza and burrata salad were good but the main dishes very very disappointing. Food came out cold or not prepared right. The brussell sprouts went back twice and were finally scratched from the meal. Chicken Picatta and Veal Marsala were either cold or flavorless. We thought the menu items were overpriced and the selections of wine by the glass were very limited to maybe four total among a variety of categories. Even though we told the restaurant that a birthday dinner was planned, they totally ignored that. The check was wrong on two items and one entree taken off as it was not what we ordered and having the right one done would have delayed the meal even longer. The kitchen was screwed up that night. The waitress tried to help and asked us to give the place another chance...don't think so. read more

I am a foodie, and one of my favorite cuisines is definitely Italian. So I was excited to try this place because the reviews were decent, and the restaurant is fairly close to where I live. I went there a couple weeks ago and ordered my food to go. The restaurant itself was cute (hence the two starts) but the food was horrible. It was the worst chicken parmigiana I have ever had. Even Olive Garden makes better food than this place for half the price. The food was so bad that I had to throw it away. Waisted my time and money. Bleh! read more

The chopped salad is delicious. The arugula salad was okay and the chicken piccata tasted not so great. The chicken tasted like it had been boiled, and the mashed potatoes were watery. See photos. I can rightfully say that the bartender was an asshole. We sat at the bar, and There was a total of 4 people at the bar including me, on a Thursday at 9:30pm. This place was not busy. Long after we finished and were out of drinks, we asked the bartender for the check, and he got nasty, held up the checks of a table of 6 people sitting outside of the bar and said "I'm in the middle of dividing one check into 6." as if we needed to shut up and wait. There were two managers or owners walking around in plain clothes helping otherwise, so I'm not sure why they couldn't have helped. When the bartender was finished, he got the check for the couple sitting next to us first! They didn't even ask for it but were clearly his friends. I wouldn't go back there because of this guy and the piccata. read more

Perfectly seasoned and cooked filet! Every piece of the meal was excellent, from the crusty homemade bread and olive oil with vinegar to the crunchy sweet roasted garlic, mashed potatoes and spinach to my waitress. I told her I liked the crust of the bread and she brought me a basket of just end pieces (my favorite)! Great Italian place! read more

This is my hidden gem restaurant. We will drive to sandy springs from Brookhaven at least twice a month for this place! You must ask for Jacob, as he is the most knowledgeable server and so polite! Great wine list! Get the meatballs or the chargrilled oysters as apps! Our favorite entrees are anything with the vodka sauce and the lobster spaghetti. On occasion we will get the specials which always satisfy. Such a cute space, prompt service, and consistent food! read more

I came here a few weeks ago with an old friend. And we had a FANTASTIC time! We sat at the bar, having beer and wine and chatting with other patrons. They have one of those fancy wine pouring contraptions that lets you pour a glass of wine without exposing the wine to air, which means they have pricier wines by the glass that you can usually only find by the bottle! That meant I was in heaven, but made our bill a little pricey. For dinner, I had the mushroom risotto - it was fantastic! My friend had the filet - and he let me have a few bites... it was cooked perfectly (medium rare), and was a very thick-cut filet, served with asparagus (and I think mashed potatoes). We both thoroughly enjoyed our food, as well as the service at the bar. I will definitely come back here another time! Check them out!! read more

We came into town for weekend and wanted to find a nice Italian restaurant! Thoroughly enjoyed eating at Cibo e Beve! We scheduled an 8:30 reservation and sat within 5 minutes of 8:30! Service was great! I ordered the carbonara and my boyfriend ordered chicken parm! Both were amazing. Not to mention our wine service! Thanks for having us! We'll be back! read more

I have always found Cebo to be decent. Not bad, but not great. We have visited at 7 or 8 times in years past. We've probably checked it off the list. Order two pizzas and they were way too Simply too cheesey. The flavor is good but take it easy on the cheese. read more

Cibo e Beve was a bit of a disappointment. My date was earlier than me and asked our server for some water and bread. When I sat down I didn't see our server until about 15 min later. By the time she came I knew what I wanted to eat (they ran out of the meal I was looking forward to eating when I checked out the menu earlier). So I had to order something else. The menu choices were limited. The restaurant's decor was generic but nice. I ordered their lobster linguine. The food wasn't very flavorful and Americanized obviously. The lobster was fresh. The service was 2.5 out of 5. Water was barely refilled. read more
