Round two a year or more later after the hype settled down. We had a wonderful time. The service has a bit of an attitude but that was ok- sort of added to its edginess I guess. The time around the calamari and bean appetizer was the hit- we ordered an extra! And of course that ice cream sandwich.
Went here for Valentine's Day and it was great!! Such a special place with amazing dishes. The pastas were amazing. I loved the fact that they had the option to do 60% pasta for 60% the price! It gave us the ability to try 2 different ones! It's right across from the Fox, so its perfect for before a show! They were super great about asking if we were going to the show to see how much time we had! Parking is kind of hard to find and expensive in this area. We were close enough to uber, but I would definitely suggest figuring out your parking beforehand.
recently hosted a baby shower for my coworker at Lyla Lila, and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The food was incredible -- the lamb skewers were hands down the highlight of the meal. Perfectly seasoned, tender, and cooked to perfection. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The service was just as impressive. The staff was attentive, kind, and made sure our group felt celebrated and well taken care of throughout the entire event. They were organized, accommodating, and truly helped make the baby shower feel special. If you're looking for a place with amazing food and exceptional service -- whether for dinner or a special event -- I highly recommend Lyla Lila. We couldn't have chosen a better spot to celebrate. m
I came on a Friday night for a friend's bday dinner. They don't accommodate large groups in the front room so we were in the back area which was less aesthetically pleasing but more intimate. The menu has a wide array of pasta dishes. They were sold out of a couple of dishes by the time of our late (10PM) reservation. I was between the ravioli and the duck lasagna. I went for the lasagna and it was a disappointment for me. It tasted a bit burnt and I could appreciate the duck flavor. The carrot garnish was also a bit flavorless. The other girls I dined with really enjoyed their dishes and the service was good so that's why I stop gave 4 stars. The cocktails were also good and reasonably priced. We ubered so I can't speak on parking but it's midtown/downtown so do with that what you will.
This is one of my favorite spots in Atlanta! I've come here about 5 times in the past 4 months, tried most of the menu and I have been disappointed by a single dish. Cocktails - I love the duckfat washed bourbon old fashioned. MVP's for food were the peach burrata (which is a summer special), the scallops, and the cod wrapped in zucchini. I also love the kale salad if you're looking for some greens. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu
I can't believe I've lived in Atlanta for almost 10 years and have just now tried Lyla Lila. It has soared to the top of my favorites list! My sister and I did the pasta tasting menu which I definitely recommend. The service was wonderful and the vibes were great. I'm still dreaming about the tiramisu. I will definitely be back!
Ok ADORE. Elegant interior, incredible service, wide selection of dishes, beautiful drinks. Big fan! We began with the smoked scallops - perf light starter. They give you a good amount too. My main was the snapper in squash. It's a massive portion of fish, over a cream-based sauce and wrapped in a light layer of shaved squash. Would recommend both.
Such a great dinner!!! The food is fresh and the chef is so creative with all the flavor profiles even down to the salads! We love that we could do a small portion of the pasta so that we could try a couple of them!
Great spot for a fun date night or to hang out with friends! Parking can be a nightmare if you don't have a go to deck/street to use since they don't really have designated parking (the two lots suggested on the site are pretty expensive). Ubering is also a pretty decent idea especially if there's an event at fox. The inside of the restaurant is super nice and deceptively large, with a few dining rooms. Our service was great too and everything came out very quickly. We started with the ciabatta bread with their homemade spiced butter. It was absolutely amazing and will definitely be getting it every time I go! We then had our own pasta tour with 4 plates of pasta since they can do 60% of most pasta dishes at 60% of the price. I think 3 would have been the perfect amount, but it was nice having more variety to try. 1. Wagyu beef truffle ravioli - the BEST! I loved their truffle sauce and the beef was super tender 2. Duck lasagna - super tasty and came with a side of carrots. 3. Squid ink pasta - usually not a fan but the one at Lyla Lila is so good! Loved the addition of nduja and garlic butter breadcrumbs. 4. Cavatelli - pretty disappointing and why Lyla doesn't get 5 stars for me. This was my fiances top choice when looking at the menu and he was sooo glad we ended up sharing pasta instead of getting our own haha I'll definitely be back to get the ravioli again and to try some of their other dishes!
Lyla Lila is a destination for tasty, creative Italian food. The restaurant's Midtown location has been open for five years. Chef-partner Craig Richards has a deep resume in food business, but this is his first as owner. Unlike many Italian restaurants, the décor of the two dining rooms is artsy and beautiful. We started with the Buffalo Mozzarella, that is served with squash, beets and black truffle vinaigrette. Yum! The Crispy Artichokes are shaped into roses, crunchy on the outside with a buttery center. It was sensational. Never had artichokes served that way. The menu, as expected is heavy on pasta, but they give you the option of a full serving or half portion (which is actually about 60% of the full). For entrees, I selected the multilayered Crispy Duck Lasagna, which is the #1 pasta order by Yelp reviewers. It was exquisite. But the highlights of our meal were Cappelletti Ravioli and the Cavatelli. Rich, authentic tastes. Save room for the desserts. We ordered the Meyer Lemon Cheesecake, Chocolate Mouse Cake and some Chocolate-Salted Caramel gelati. The desert course almost topped the entrees. The restaurant has an extensive wine selection, but also a full bar. Most of their liquors are small batch regional producers, so keep that in mind. Cecil, our server, has worked there for a year and was super helpful and attentive. Make sure to ask for him.
Their drinks are pretty good, we got three of them to start with. Love that you can do half size portions of the pasta so i got the duck lasagna and another dish. Pasta was pretty good, and for dessert I got the affogato which was sooo strong in a good way. Parking was hassle to find but that's just everywhere in this area.
Went here for my Birthday. Long story short - amazing food, terrible service. We started with cocktails and the snapper crudo - very delicious. Pastas were incredible and I loved that you could do the 60% portion size. However, service was so bad. The server was stopping by the tables next to us nonstop and never came to us. we also constantly ran out of water. No recollection of my birthday besides when she first sat us down. It wasn't special and I thought it might be because this restaurant is so nice. I will say food is amazing, I just feel the server profiled us as younger people who might not be spending as much money as the people around us, so she gave them much more attention. Disappointing, as we were planning on doing more but it wasn't worth it after the service.

Went to Lyla Lila for a birthday dinner and had a good experience overall. The atmosphere was nice, service was pleasant, and the Italian food was pretty good. We had the rosemary ciabatta, snapper crudo (not really my thing, mostly because of the texture), wagyu beef & black truffle ravioli, and cacio e pepe. The cacio e pepe was my favorite. I forgot to get pictures of the entrées because, well... I was eating. Overall, a solid spot for dinner and a nice atmosphere, but I wasn't necessarily blown away. I'd be open to going back and trying something different. read more

This place had great vibes! The ambiance was amazing and the service was wonderful. The spot would make a great date night. We started our night with cocktails at the bar which was lovely. The cocktails were yummy and balanced. Food wise, I do think this place is a bit overhyped. The pasta is fresh but the flavors themselves did not WOW me. We had the Funghi pasta and the Cacio e Pepe. I felt that the Cacio E Pepe was way too cheesy and lacked the peppery flavors of the dish I so crave. The Funghi pasta was tasty and far better than the Cacio e Pepe in my opinion. The tiramisu was tasty but a bit on the heavier side. Overall, I feel like the food didn't wow me but I'd be open to trying this spot again. read more

Not sure if I've been living under a rock but Lyla Lila is so under hyped. Not to sound extreme but this may have been the best pasta I've had ...in my life? Our experience from beginning to end was 10/10! We weren't particularly excited about any of the apps but pro tip: you can order any of the pasta dishes as an appetizer portion. We settled on the duck lasagna, wagyu ravioli, and the cavatelli. Words can't describe how delicious this meal was!! I was most excited about the duck lasagna but wow the wagyu ravioli and cavatelli are a must order!! The flavor of these are so unique and delicious. It's crazy bc the lasagna was so good you may think it can't get better this...but at Lyla Lila it does! The ambience is like sophisticated mid-century modern. Perfect for date night! The staff was also incredible! Lauren and Ashley were great but it was Justin who made our experience so memorable. He made us feel like family and stopped in to check on my friend and I and ended up finding out it was my birthday. He brought out a birthday tiramasu and I just felt so special. Wonderful from beginning to end - can't wait to come back! read more

My husband and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary here. The vibe was so great! The bar was very cool and the atmosphere was very calm and inviting. Our waitress Emily took such great care of us. She gave us complementary champagne because it was our anniversary and we were so surprised! She was very informative and had great feedback about all of the dishes. We were unsure about what to order because everything sounded so yummy and Emily said we could do half portions! The food was absolutely insane. We ordered Wagyu ravioli, Duck Lasagna, Squid Ink Pasta, and Sweet Potato Ravioli and every dish was perfect. The drinks were amazing and dessert was fantastic as well. We cannot wait to come back read more
Everything was amazing! 2nd time here! Chamblee remembered me from my first visit last month! Eric from CT & JJ were great serving my needs. Clientele are cool and kind. Here on business after a long election night and everyone here is leading with love. The food is on point. The people are kind, "real" and loving. If I lived closer I'd be here so much more frequently!! I tried the broccoli fennel salad and it was out of this world! read more

We dined at Lyla Lila for our anniversary. Jess our server was nice and attentive. We started with the Bread and the Mushrooms. Both were delicious and interesting, especially the lemon flavored butter for the bread. A cool thing the restaurant does is allow for smaller portions of all their pastas at a lesser price. We shared 4 smaller portions of pasta, including the Squid Ink Spaghetti, Ravioli Doppio, Pork Rib Ragu, and Cacio e Pepe. All were delicious but the standouts were definitely the Ravioli and Squid Ink Spaghetti. We were full but still decided to end the meal with the Tiramisu, which was perfect and generously portioned. This place is new favorite of ours and an excellent special date night spot. read more

Parking is very difficult in this area so we ubered. The place fills up fast so reservation, especially in the weekend, is highly recommended. The ambience and decor are elegant from floor to ceiling. There are some black vents on the ceiling that look strangely dirty and out of the picture, but I guess no one care to look up as much. Once I saw them, I couldn't unseen them. The service is professional and nice. The food is on the high price but it makes sense for the midtown location and the upscale restaurant. We had: - Broccoli & fennel salad: it's better to get a small portion if you plan to try several other dishes. We got the small portion and there's still a lot. - Crispy artichoke: super crunchy, like snack chip crunch. As much as I like the texture, the taste is too salty for me. - Calamari from the grill: fresh squid but the flavor is a mix of very salty, a hint of spiciness and bitterness where the charcoal burnt are. This dish doesn't work for me either. - Wagyu beef and black truffle ravioli: this dish is the star. - Squid ink spaghetti: the spaghetti texture is kind of chewy and not al dente. It's also over seasoning to my taste. - Ice cream sandwich with amarena cherry gelato and magic shell: this dessert is a star and highlight of the whole meal. All in all, the menu is a hit and miss to me personally. But the restaurant itself deserve good rating with tasty cuisine, and nice ambience. I still recommend the place. read more

I want to start by saying my 3 star review is for the food only. My cocktail and the service was a 5. I flew in from California today for work and was looking forward to a nice dinner after a long day. I was excited to try Lyla Lila after seeing it in the Michelin Guide and mentioned in some ATL Reddit threads. Unfortunately, I didn't like the food. The ambiance was warm and welcoming - I opted to sit at the bar. My bartender/server was friendly and the cocktail I ordered was great (not pictured, Fist of Fury). The mushrooms were ok, but I found the overall texture to be slimy/greasy rather than a nice meaty char that I was expecting from the menu's description. I ate most of them because I was hungry, but wouldn't order them again. I was most excited for the duck lasagna because of the menu description and other reviews. Unfortunately again, I fear it didn't live up to expectations. Overall it was under seasoned, and all I could really taste was the crusted cheese on the top layer. I was hoping for deep earthy notes from the duck and the cocoa béchamel, maybe a little bitterness - but it was all kind of flat. The carrot purée and salad were there to add contrast and brightness, but didn't quite do their job - under seasoned and needing a bit more acid. The carrot salad on the side was also tricky to eat because of the raw shaved preparation - maybe more of a slaw/julienne or a thicker slice or big cut roasted carrots would have been better. I mentioned to the bartender that I really didn't like the lasagna when I declined a to-go box and he generously took it off the bill. I was really grateful for that, and didn't expect it at all. I also declined dessert, which I normally order, because I didn't want to risk another flop. If I lived in the area I might give the restaurant another try because the service was so good, but on a short work trip I'm going to venture elsewhere. read more

Easily one of my too favorite restaurants in Atlanta! The ambience in there is moody and romantic, the service was phenomenal and they even gave us a glass of prosecco to celebrate our anniversary! But the food is truly so unique and flavorful. The pastas were so amazing and the tiramisu had flaky sea salt on top which I LOVED! We will be back! read more

Came to Lyla Lila without a reservation when I found out The Livingston was closed. We had a show at The Fox. We were sat quickly at the bar. The resturant was full and it was only 6pm. The resturant is beautiful, classy, sexy, and the service is impeccable. Star of the show chili citrus butter, duck lasagna, and thr cacio d pepe. read more

Lyla Lila lived up to the hype! Super lucky to go check it out and explore a lot of the options on the menu. The food was great, the drinks were great, the service was great! Our server Stafford was by far one of my favorites servers I've ever had. We made the experience even better. The items we ordered was the cold smoked scallops, calamari, rack of lamb, wagyu beef ravioli, and the duck lasagna! Everything tasted fantastic. -The scallops came out with the lid on and the smoked inside the dish so they did the fancy lid removal and spinning of the smoke. Wasn't expecting that (I'm good without that attention you get from the rest of restaurant). Minus that the scallops were super delish. -The pesto with the calamari was super flavorful. -The wagyu beef and truffle ravioli made my heart happy. Best ravioli I've ever had and the cheese was so fresh tasting! -They are apparently known for the duck lasagna which I get now. It was quite tasty however it's a very filling dish. Reminded me of a holiday dish. -Last and definitely not least the Rack of Lamb, chefs kiss! This dish was my favorite of them all. The lamb was perfectly cooked and the sauces paired with it couldn't have been anymore perfect!!! Overall, great experience at Lyla Lila. Can't wait to go back and explore more of the menu. read more

Wow, I was absolutely blown away by the quality of food here. They source their food from a local farm and have a rotating menu based on the produce. The decor and ambiance is tasteful. Service was attentive and pleasant. Probably the best Italian inspired restaurant I've been to, period. Crispy artichokes: the presentation was stunning. I liked the deep flavor of the stems, but felt the dish was quite one-noted. The cheese spread at the bottom of the plate was interesting, but I felt the fish roe was underutilized (in fact I couldn't taste any flavor from it but noticed it was there from the menu description). Wood grilled mushrooms: these were grilled to perfection which drew out a wonderful umami flavor from the mushrooms. There was a thicker mushroom and some enoki style ones - both were excellent. The truffle aioli was the cherry on top. Honestly I didn't know mushrooms could taste like this! Crispy duck lasagna: 13 layers of nicely cooked pasta topped with a delightfully crispy top since it's flash fried, then finished in the oven. The bechemel could've been more flavorful, and I could barely taste the duck. However, the carrot puree was lovely, along with the carrot and radish on the size. Portion size is big enough to feed 2-3 people, which I felt was incredibly generous of the restaurant. Cavatelli with pork ragu and tiger prawns: the pasta was made in-house and cooked perfectly. The pork was savory and tender. The prawns felt a little unnecessary as the dish would've held its own without them, but they were cooked well and I always love extra protein. Portion size was also quite sizable for this dish; we had leftovers. Tiramisu: I thought they dusted extra cocoa power for decor but it turned out to be chocolate shavings which was neat! The coffee flavor is quite strong to the point where it initially tastes too bitter, but as you eat more, it gradually balances out. I enjoyed the large-ish dark chocolate bits they included, which made for a sophisticated flavor. Definitely blows Cafe Intermezzo out of the water, no contest. Lemon cheesecake: much sweeter than the tiramisu but the lemon flavor was highlighted prominently. I enjoyed the extra creme fraiche on top with the lemon shavings, and the bluberries were huge, plump, and sweet. Definitely gave farm-to-table vibes! Overall, extremely impressed and thoroughly enjoyed my experience here. I got a few peeks into the kitchen as waitstaff were walking in and out, and it looked beautiful. They even had a table near the door with a lamp about 2 feet above the table (presumably for plating?) which gave the kitchen some beautiful lighting. read more
Lyla Lila is a sophisticated Italian restaurant with a cheerful ambiance! Even though the lighting is dim it really adds to the experience, and there are plenty of people chatting at the bar area too. I love how they have a seating area for single diners as well. My boyfriend and I made a reservation a couple hours in advance, which was a late dinner since we were jet lagged from flying from California. We started off with the broccoli, fennel, and celery salad. This was so delicious! I was surprised because I never had a broccoli salad before much less one this good. The broccoli was perfectly crisp, the pistachios added a nice crunch, and the provolone wasn't overwhelming. I usually don't like celery but I honestly didn't even notice it in this salad. Then came the entrees, the duck ravioli and wagyu & truffle ravioli. I liked the duck ravioli but wished it had a little more duck in it. It was definitely a unique dish though, worth a try! My boyfriend enjoyed the wagyu and truffle ravioli but it was a little too rich for me. For dessert we settled on the tiramisu, which was definitely the right choice. It was a huge slice compared to the lemon cheesecake we were considering, and I loved every bite of it! This made it to the list of my top tiramisus. Service was great as well, we were seated promptly and our waiter John was attentive in making sure that our plates and silverware were switched out between courses. He even noticed when a tiny drop of sauce from the ravioli made its way onto the table! Very glad we were able to try this restaurant during our short trip. read more
This place is wildly expensive but WOW it is good. I came here with a friend and we did the pasta odyssey which was delightful. Ever pasta was great, though some were more memorable than others. In particular the duck lasagna was not our favorite, which seems to be one of their standard menu items. We didn't get much duck in either of our portions. Very thoughtful truffle additions (not too much!) and other very high quality ingredients. The menu changes so several of the pastas have changed - I'd love to go back and try more! Oh and we got 2 desserts - the cheesecake and a chocolate-y something. Yum! read more
Popped in last night before our show at the Fox for an overdue reservation! We began our dinner with the Soul Vaccination (spin on an old fashion with duckfat) and a Monks Repose (12/10). We ordered the bread service, the crispy artichokes, and the smoked scallops. The scallops were the best part - the presentation was great and they were so fresh! We couldn't decide on a pasta to try, and they offer a "pasta odyssey" which means you can order up to 5 appetizer sizes of pasta so you can try them all! We opted for 2 to try (cacio Pepe and wild boar with sweet potato ravioli) the boar ravioli was the best - it also had thin slivers of truffle. If you know me, you know I'm a whore for truffle For mains, we did the snapper and the main portion of the wagu truffle ravioli. The fish was out of this world but I would pass on the ravioli next time. Since we love food and are fatties, we ordered two desserts (ginger cake and tiramisu!) They were both great but we were stuffed. This would have been a 5 star review, but unfortunately the host wasn't super friendly and also didn't ask to take our dripping umbrella. (I would have expected that from a spot you were dropping $300+++. read more

Exceptional dinner that is perfect for a special occasion! First I will recommend going to the Georgian Terrace parking garage. It is $20 but no one in my party was successful in finding another available parking garage in the area. This is the only negative I have about the experience. For appetizers, my group split the ciabatta and broccoli & fennel salad. The butter for the ciabatta was so unique and flavorful, and the salad was a nice refreshing bite before getting into the pasta. For entree, everyone in my party got a half portion of the smoked eggplant caramelle. It was by far the best thing we had and I wish I got a full portion. If you are looking to order a pasta dish, you must get this!!!! Perfect in every way. I also got the snapper. Good flavors but the pesto was concentrated in two bites, I wish it was spread over the whole snapper so it could be in every bite. I had a bite of my friend's duck lasagna. It was phenomenal but so rich -- rich in a good way, but I could definitely not finish the whole thing on my own! Another friend got the cappelletti which was also good, the sauce was the stand out. I am not a dessert person, but they wanted to order some, and I am so glad we did because the dessert was to die for!!!!! We did the chocolate orange mousse cake which was so flavorful, perfect caramel, and then the ice cream sandwich which was out of this world. I am not normally a sweets person but I think it was even better than the caramelle! Overall definitely worth the trip! read more
