There were 4 of us, our meals were excellent! Delicious, nice presentation. Wait staff were great! AND desserts were fantastic! We will be returning guests, for sure! We ate: Rustic Sicilian, Egg Plant parm, Lasagna. read more

What happened?!!? 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. :( read more

Everything was really delicious and such a cute place! The mozzarella wedges and calamari was both yummy. Everyone lived there pizzas and the are both enough to share. Chicken Alfredo was good but a little light. Added the rose sauce from the mozzarella wedges and that added more flavor. Definitely check this place out! read more

It pains me to write this. I remember when Farmacia opened. It had a wine list like no other. Aperitif selection a page long. A genuine pasta section (secundi) and main (Primi). We had not been in in a few months and we showed up at 5:50pm. 3 tables were in house at the time. We were handed the menus and immediately my wife and I were perplexed. This was not the same restaurant. I even asked the server if the owner changed. Nope. We were lied to saying it was a season menu change - I'm in the business; that was menu engineering based of cost efficiency and was basically an Olive Garden menu. Pasta is not made from scratch anymore. We ordered two drinks, which have been limited to 5 options that the waiters are making as they have no steady bartender. The drinks were what you'd expect from an untrained person making them. Not worth $13. Then we ordered the Caprese and meatballs. We were hopeful the food quality hadn't changed. It did. The tomatoes were mush. It was a joke. Meatballs were cold. Again only 3 tables and it took 30 minutes. Our entrees were eggplant parmigiana and the sausage rigatoni- the eggplant was cold and they forgot the sausage in our food - on top of the massive wait the food was cold. It kills me to say this, but they had 3 high school aged men working in the kitchen. No culinary training. I stopped and watched. For the price charged, this was a embarrassment of a dinner. Management, I hope you read this. I understand menu engineering for hard times - but at least execute on it and don't be understaffed. read more

Great ambience, service and food! We got there right as they opened for lunch and almost had the place to ourselves. We were all finding it hard to pick something from the menu as it all sounds so good! We started with the bread and butter - just do it - it's worth every calorie!! Can't wait to go back! read more

Is it possible for food to taste as fantastic as it does here at Farmacia Trattoria? The answer is, yes, absolutely, and without question, this is the finest pizza I have eaten in nearly 63 years of life on this earth! From the moment of the first bite, you are taken to Cucina Italia right here in the lovely Georgia community of Cornelia! Delicious amazing pizza carnivore with made from scratch fresh bread and I guess had fettuccine Alfredo and chicken parmigiana. Hostess is fantastic! Atmosphere is over the top glorious! read more

A lot of things have changed from our first visit shortly after it opened. We drove over an hour to find a scaled down menu not as expected. More like a glorified Pizza parlor. We ordered 2 small pizzas and 2 market fish specials. Pizza was good not great, but both fish plates were 3/4 uncooked. Waitress agreed and they tried to make it right but we were through with diner by then. Just a pure disappointment. So if you want a nice pizza parlor this is fine but anything above that you will be disappointed. read more

We came here tonight to celebrate a birthday. We also came because the pizza here is Very unique. We were pleasantly surprised to hear that Tuesday nights pizza is Bogo! Our server Will was very friendly and a wonderful server. He made us feel very special and he took great care of us. Our pizzas were amazing! I highly recommend Farmacia Trattoria! read more

Farmacia Trattoria hit every craving. Spaghetti meatballs straight-up homemade, sauce so fresh it sang 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! read more

Have been to FT before and thoughrouly enjoyed the experience. The food is excellent. BUT, yesterday, we learned they have had a head chef change. (Uh oh). The pasta type I wanted in my create your own pasta was unavailable. (2nd time, so I'm guessing it's a supply chain issue). Ordered the garlic butter rolls. Oops, we're out of those. (An Italian restaurant out of garlic bread?) My wife ordered her pasta with an alfredo/pasta sauce mix. It came with marinara sauce. So. What we had was good, just kinks in availability and order processing. read more

My husband surprised me with a reservation here to celebrate my birthday. All I can say is Wow! We live in Dahlonega, so it's an hour drive but boy was it worth it! It's in an old building that housed a pharmacy for years, hence the name and decor. Our server was Fallin, who was very knowledgeable with suggestions and specials. We started with fried artichokes served with lemon aioli, which were outstanding I ordered Italian sausage ragu and my husband had a pesto pizza. They make their pesto in house with pistachios rather than pine nuts, which he loved! My Ragu was fabulous and I even brought some home. We did not order dessert, but the tiramisu looked awesome. They have an open kitchen with a gorgeous pizza oven from Italy. Service was prompt and spot on . Fallin brought me some biscotti on a candle lit plate along with a birthday card signed by all the employees The owners also own Community Brew and Tap an upscale steakhouse and a diner called Fenders Diner, all on the same block in downtown Cornelia... all three restaurants have won awards. I was in Italy for two weeks in June and the food here is authentic Italian! We will definitely come back to try the other two! Hidden gems in North Georgia! read more

Honestly, It is very disheartening to give this review. The service and food we received at Farmacia Trattoria tonight July 11,2026 was subpar. We have been there on several occasions and have always enjoyed our food and our complete dining experience. I never once saw a manager on the floor for the entire hour we were dining. We didn't complain once. We were very gracious and kind. We were told by our server that we would get a free canolli because of the problems with the timing of our appetizers and entrees coming out. We did not. My primary thought is that it is a management problem. It would be a shame to see such a fantastic restaurant close due to poor management. Please do better!! read more

12" pizza has 6" of crust and cannot even see the ingredients (counted 8 small pieces of sausage. The pasta dishes are appetizer sized for full price. People pasta is cheap but the ingredients are so small so small pasta size not to embarrass the small meat. Service and atmosphere it top notch. read more

Lunch today, and every visit, was absolutely fantastic!! Quality ingredients, perfect flavor, cooked to perfection and brought to our table swiftly so the cheese was at the perfect melted temperature. Friendly service and a beautiful restaurant. So thankful you are here!! read more

Food was extremely mid...My wife, my son, and I ate here, dropping in out of curiosity after word-of-mouth. My son got a cheese pizza, which was undercooked and doughy in the middle. I got the lasagna, which was okay, but a bit overcooked. My wife got the chicken Alfredo, which had to be sent back for the kitchen because it was horribly salty, to the point it was completely inedible. When the dish was remade and made it back to the table, it was extremely oily and had hardly any flavor at all. We also got the fried mozzarella, which was decent. After tip and waters all around, the price came out to $85, which is utterly ridiculous. The ambiance was great, however. The server was great and accommodating, she was really the best part of the visit. Just not a great experience overall, the food wasn't worth the price we paid. read more

The food was amazing! We had the sausage rotini and the lasagna. We also shared a Caesar salad, which had the best dressing ever!

This is probably one of the best meals I've eaten in a long time. The Salmon with Caviar on top was absolutely delicious and my favorite dish of the night. Our waitress was amazing! She was so patient with us and helped us pick out must haves for our dinner. The atmosphere was so pleasing and loved how beautiful it was inside. Only thing I didn't like was how close the tables were. It felt like they were trying to fit in as many tables as possible. Other than that, we had a wonderful time and will be back. read more

What an absolutely wonderful experience. We drove up from Atlanta specifically to visit Farmacia after watching its build out in the months prior. We started with the Burrata Salad, which was loaded with crisp and fresh vegetables along with a generous portion of burrata. On top of that, the presentation was beautiful. From there, we decided on two primi and pizza to round out our meal. The primi was a ricotta and lemon zest special with zucchini cream. It was so wonderfully fresh and full of flavor. Also had the cacio e pepe. The pastas had a perfect bite that you only get from freshly made pasta. The work and care that went into the two pasta dishes was quite obvious. Added the sausage and fennel pizza on top of that. I believe the dough they make for pizza is sourdough. And I hate to be "that person," but it's the best pizza I've had since visiting Italy this past summer. Finished it off with a chocolate torte for dessert and some amaro to help it all go down. Our neighbors got the Branzino and it looked incredible, so that's what I'll get next time. I have to end this review by saying how much I appreciated our server, even if I can't remember their name. They guided us so perfectly through the dining experience and were so kind and passionate about the food here. Can't wait to come back! read more

So, I came back although I said I would not just because it was decided beforehand and not by me. This place needs to just close the doors. We were a party of 4 and the only people there. You would think that the food would be perfect. It was not. I asked for Aperol to go with my prosecco. I was told they did not have any. Only to see 10 bottles right behind the front desk under some wine display as we were leaving. We ordered Arancini- a typical southern Italian fried rice ball. These looked like tiny golf balls and seemed frozen and not made from scratch. Arancini are supposed to be big and almost look like a snow cone. We were 4 and they brought 3. The pizzas. Sauce sucked, dough terrible, mozzarella no flavor,and the crust was black burnt. See photo below. We took it home because no one want to eat what they ordered at the time. The only good thing was the actual bottle of prosecco we had. Marcos serves a better pizza! Advice, someone needs to actually go to Italy and learn how to make an authentic wood fired pizza before trying to pawn one off. I mean the chef made our pizza with a burnt crust and yet still served it to us. What's with the pick- a - noodle and pick your sauce? In italy, certain noodles go with a specific sauce. It's not Burger King! Oh, and you will see that for some reason they are adding Mexican type dishes. Why? Stay with one and per- fect it. If you want Mexican go to a Mexican Restaurant. And they still do not know how to say Farmacia in Italian. It is pronounced "Farm- A- Chee - ah" "Trat-Tor-RIA." Not "Farm- Ah- See-Ah Trat-tor-e- ah. read more

My husband and I dined at Farmacia Trattoria yesterday evening. We were seated about 10-15 min after our reservation time and service was a bit slow but we were comped an appetizer as a result. I was prepared for smaller portions of pasta based on others reviews but must agree that the price point is a tad high. Nonetheless, the food was flavorful and we'll return in the future for a special occasion. We enjoyed the Crispy Artichokes, Tagliatelle Bolognese, Truffle Wagyu Beef Ravioli, Calabrese Pizza and Tiramisu. FYI - They do not serve liquor at this time but there is a limited beer and wine by the glass menu. read more

Beautiful interior, great ambience, the pizza was pretty good but a bit overcooked in my opinion. They said that's the way it's done in Italy, but my wife is from Italy and I've been going all over the country with her for 25 years and it's not the way they do it in Italy. Still, it was good pizza just a bit overcooked. Also, the sides that we were supposed to have with our pizzas finally came out when we were almost finished eating, which was a bummer. The menu is a bit pricey, with cocktails and food literally on par with similar restaurants in Manhattan. Which was a bit surprising for Cornelia Georgia. I guess they get away with it because there's nothing else similar in the area. Overall we mostly enjoyed it, though, and I'd recommend it if you're nearby and don't mind spending $25-30 per personal pizza and $18-$25 for a cocktail. I'd also tell them you want your pizza light cooked if you don't like it overtly burned around the edges of the crust and on very crispy the bottom. read more

I ordered a Coke and a side order of bread. With tax and tip, it was $15. I just don't think this place really did any demographic studies of the local residents median income. I noticed reservations are recommended, but based on my observations last night, not ever going to be necessary... Economics 101- Elastic demand: as prices increase- customers look elsewhere. and lets be real, Italian food while great, is not complicated or expensive to make. Pricci in Buckhead has better entree prices... and bread is free... read more

Heard and read great reviews so we tried it. Had the artichoke appetizer, it was interesting, they are very small and all fully edible except the stem. The Cesar salad was bland and nothing to write home about. The sausage and fennel pizza had way too much olive oil on it, to the point the slices were mushy and almost too oily to eat. Our server was very nice though. So appetizers, salad pizza and two glasses of wine came to 113.00 and change 25.00 tip. It was not at all a good value. read more

This venue has changed their menu and not for the better. What used to be fresh, authentic Italian has turned into a glorified pizza joint. No cocktail or wine selection, no authentic dishes...very disappointed in what they've become. read more

Beautiful space. I expected great things. The appetizer was great--whipped ricotta with tasty flat bread. The menu was disappointing--pasta and pizza--not family style Italian as the name suggests. Two entrees--the fish special Inhad to beg the server to share with us. Both entrees $55 a piece. Our choices were pizza/pasta for $20 a plate or one of two entrees for $55. Opted for pasta and chicken Parmesan. My pasta had chicken tossed in bbq sauce over house made pappardelle--disgusting. Three bites in and I gave up. My lady had the chicken Parmesan and the chicken was at least two inches thick and barely cooked through over some lack luster pasta. Every chicken Parmesan I have ever prepared or ordered at a restaurant is thinly pounded, breaded and pan seared with a tasty crust and topped with cheese--this was a mess. Ive owned restaurants and dined at great places all over Georgia--Atlanta, Decatur--and traveled and eaten many places. Our server seemed out of place, confused and disappeared for 15-20 minutes at a time. I expected so much more but left irritated that I even gave the place a chance read more

I have been to this restaurant several times and have always enjoyed the experience until our most recent visit. Previously the food always seemed authentic and fresh whereas this visit it seemed very run of the mill and out of the freezer and microwave. This was truly an unfortunate experience that I can assure you will not be repeated. read more

This place is the definition of classy yet cozy dining. The staff was so kind and friendly and well accommodating to my dairy restrictions. The food I had was amazing! I do wish the portion of the pasta was a bit more for the price but the quality is definitely worth it. read more

Where do I begin?!? The venue is casual upscale, if that's a thing. Beautiful chandeliers and hanging pendants throughout. Then, the dining room looks right into the kitchen, which is fun. The money shot is the two giant, beautiful, colorful pizza ovens....mesmerizing. And the medicine bottles and framed rotating pictures were a great vibe! Next amazing part was the service! Warm, friendly and extremely knowledgeable!!!! I don't see this enough. Emma was a gem! Please ask for her!!! If she is not available, Fallon is a can't miss too. All this and I haven't mentioned the food. Our table had beet salads and Caesar salads. The Caesar was very different and that it wasn't Romaine lettuce. They use whatever is fresh locally. Lettuce was beautiful and the croutons were finally ground with an interesting texture. One of our friends had a special of cannelloni which was to die for. The rest of our table ordered pizzas, which were some of the best pizzas I've ever had. I personally had the sausage and fennel and recommended highly. We drove 50 minutes and it was so worth it. Will be back again soon!!! read more

Absolutely worth the hour drive north. My husband and I did a quick hike and then got dressed in dinner attire. The bread is absolutely incredible with the whipped ricotta.
