It was a spontaneous idea on my end. I got off work and called my mom to see if she was in the mood to grab dinner and she said "yes!" So I did what I do best and jumped on Yelp for recommendations in the area. Natalie Bianca looked fairly new but the reviews raved about this spot , so I gave it a try. I'm familiar with this area and have tried a few restaurants off Cascade. Once again, no reservations but we will greeted and seated immediately by Courtney, which happens to be one of the co-owners. She gave us the history of the restaurant and the meaning behind the name. Our waitress for the night was Keisha and we weren't sure on what drink to order so she whipped something up behind the bar for my mom and I. Mine had brown liquor and my moms was a mocktail. My drink was decent but my mom enjoyed hers. The menu was pretty simple. We started off with a house salad and their balsamic dressing and this corn appetizer. Both were pretty good. For our big plates my mom had Miss Natalie's Shrimp Pasta and I had the Charbroiled Grilled Chicken. We both enjoyed our meals and time there. I loved their mixed playlist of afrobeats mixed with neo-soul. This is definitely a cute spot for a date night. read more

I'm becoming a regular here; even one of the servers says it! :) The staff is incredibly attentive, and because the team is relatively small, you actually get to know the people working there. It's got this nice upscale feel but also strong neighborhood vibes, which is a combo I didn't know I needed. The crab cakes are my absolute favorite thing on the menu. Do not skip them. You're welcome! Also, Antonio is such a sweetheart and does a phenomenal job! There was a night when he had so many tables and handled the load with so much grace. I've been here for both family outings and girls' nights, and it works perfectly for either. Street parking is super easy to find, which is always a bonus. Last thing. Check out their event calendar! They've got some pretty fun stuff happening. read more

Natalie Bianca - Happy Hour Taquitos - Southern Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

I recently went to Natalie Bianca for a Haitian rum tasting and pairing and it was such a great event! First off, upon arrival I parked on a side street which was free and no restrictions. This is a big win for me! I have started getting away from places that charge for parking. Secondly, upon arrival I was welcomed with inviting decor and friendly staff. This made the event start off with great vibes. Lastly, the drinks made with the Haitian Rum Navet 1804 were delicious and paired nicely with the dishes cooked up in the restaurant. Each dish was delicious! I can't wait to return! read more

Natalie Bianca is a true hidden gem in SW Atlanta that I recommend anyone to try. I stopped in on a random whim with a reservation after work. Parking options seem to be mostly street parking & I was happy I found a free spot very close but I could see it getting busy in that area if the weekend or later in the evening. Now enough blabbing about the parking, let's good to the good stuff: Service & Food was top tier! Appetizers: * Combination of Appetizers 8/10: this platter comes with their fried green tomatoes, polenta slices, shrimp tostada, and a crab cake! Everything was flavorful and I could tell it was all fresh. Only critique was to get a bit more crunch/crisp on the polenta slices specifically! My fav was the shrimp tostada because of the kick from the jalapeños! Caesar Salad 100/10: idk who had the idea to add fried capers...but WHEW...life changing. I added red onion as well but those capers elevated this salad by a million! Entrees: Beef Short Rib 8/10: this was a highly recommended dish! For me, the Demi glaze was great, the green beans had a nice char & crunch yet were cooked through and the potatoes were very smooth. My only slight discrepancy was with the cut/cook of the short rib. It seemed for my cut I had more tendon/cartilage which I actually enjoy but I noticed the amount of rib when going to cut through. Would love to try the shrimp pasta next! Dessert: Off Menu IYKYK (Dessert Board) 10/10: I had the churros, banana pudding cake, sweet potato pound cake, and coconut gelato! All were amazing but that banana pudding cake deserves a true 1000/10. Drinks: Jules Spicy Limoncello Margarita 7/10: I'm Italian so I love a good limoncello and I think the idea is amazing, but this drink needs a bit more tartness to work with the spice For Marti 10/10: an elevated espresso martini. The black walnut adds an amazing note and it paired well with my dessert. My server, Antonio, was spectacular and I believe I met the owner or manager who was doing amazing. I love seeing all levels participate in running food, checking on guest, in the kitchen etc. You could feel how much everyone cared. Not to mention, this space is black & queer owned so it was a true blessing to dine here & I can't wait to come back. read more

I'm coming back soon to try the turkey burger, homemade churros, chocolate pecan pie, sweet potato poundcake....lol! I don't really have much of a sweet tooth but come on! read more

Really one of my favorite restaurants in Atlanta. The owners are so welcoming and inclusive. The service is always five stars and the vibe is everything you are looking for. There is something for everyone with events happening and omg brunch! It's rare a restaurant gets so much right. The food is made by people who love what they do... and you can taste it. Definitely a great date night spot or even if you are dining with kids or on your own. The desserts are absolutely incredible and wine list! Love the creative cocktails they always have and there is the cutest little outside area that they do small events in! I'm so grateful for this amazing place in southwest Atlanta. read more

Hate to do this but hope it helps improve customer experience! Walked in and stood up front while two servers walked by and said absolutely nothing! Someone from kitchen noticed and directed a server to greet and seat us. Sat and waited 20 minutes after begging for a menu. Next, server who was pouring water got an attitude when we asked for lemons and a server to order food. Lastly, continued to wait 30 min to order before getting frustrated and walked out! Why? Please why do we have to deal with this type of service while trying to support!! It's seems pretty basic to me, have a menu of all things available for your patrons. At least try to get drinks and appetizers orders in, and then customer's are likely to be a bit more understanding if there's a little delay. Had high hopes for supporting this establishment, such a let down! Won't be returning. Such a shame but typical! read more

My favorite local restaurant! Although that's not hard to accomplish where I live however this place is a hidden gem! Beautiful store front next to an equally amazing coffee shop. Nice size bar area with an awesome happy hour Tues-Friday 4pm-6pm Drinks are spot on with a true balance of flavors! Shrimp tostado yum! Shrimp pasta yum, fried green tomatoes yum! Sweet potato pound cake yum, banana pudding cake yum and chocolate pecan pie yum! can't wait to go back and try more, and the service!!!! Courtney and Raven are top tier. Whether you are on date night, girls date or dinner with the family you can't go wrong! read more

I had a chance to check out Natalie Bianca for Friday dinner. It is not a well known spot yet so once we arrived we were seated promptly. I believe it is still fairly new. The service was good from start to finish. I ordered a nonalcoholic margarita which was good. I ordered a salad and the salmon dish. I had to send my salmon back because it was not cooked thoroughly to my liking. The manager was very accommodating and made sure my new salmon was to my liking which it was. It was a decent dinning experience overall. read more

As a Cascade resident I am always excited when a new neighbor moves in! The ambiance is perfect for family, date night or girls night! I've only sat at the bar, but every time the bartender has been absolutely amazing! I am obsessed with the Gin & Tonic there! I cannot wait to come back for a meal. read more

We went in with a large party, approximately 12 people. The service was wonderful. Our server was prompt, polite and very helpful with recommendations for our party. The restaurant has a nice ambiance. Feels cozy like a nice place to grab a drink and catch up with friends. The food however was hit and miss. I enjoyed my Cesar salad and adobo salmon however some of the party were not fans of the salmon and grits or the polenta. Over all the experience was still good for me. I would still return to try a few other dishes. read more

The food was pretty good. I had a Caesar Salad and a crab cake. My friend had the salmon quesadilla, now the salmon was seasoned to the Gods and very moist. Our other friend, wanted to try the sweet potato pound cake but they were out, so she opted for the Peach Cobbler pound cake. Somebody's grandma wearing a house coat and a bonnet made that. It was rich and moist. I am not a sweets person and I enjoyed it. Service was a little slow, but it did get busy half way through our meal. read more

Tried this spot out last night for the first time. Cute place in Cascade area. Bar area was busy but only a few tables full for dinner. The food was tasty for sure. I had the short rib with mashed potatoes and green beans. Friend had the salmon cooked medium and enjoyed it along with Fried Green Tomatoes. Service was extremely slow, the bartender was handling the whole front area. There were 2 chefs in the kitchen we waited over 40 minutes for appetizer and over an hour for dinner. We got there around 6:45pm and didn't get dinner until around 8pm. Saving grace?? Food was fantastic...I will return and hopefully the staffing issue will be resolved. read more

Great service and best grits I've had. Crab cakes were all crab and also best I've had since fresh Dungeness in half moon bay CA.

My partner & I grabbed Natalie Bianca for dinner tonight!! Food, service and drinks were great!!! I didn't love the fried green tomatoes but the sauce with them was spectacular. The grits were amazing true southern grits, we got the cheese stuffed chicken and the beef short rib (highly resembled a pot roast)!! We will definitely be going back, the GM was there and was so attentive and Raven was our server and was amazing!!!! Price wise, we got 6 drinks, appetizer, entree and dessert & spent $150 before tip- I am not mad about that!!! Can't wait to go back and try the salmon and grits P.S. probably the best espresso martini I've ever had read more

Food excellent. Sophisticated preparation. We had the boneless short ribs with sautéed kale and mashed potatoes. The short ribs had a Demi glaze that was flavorful and not heavy. Antonio, our server, was a charmer. He guided us through the menu. We will return. read more

I hate to be the contrarian, but I was disappointed. I found it hard to believe it was the same ownership as kitty Dare. The menu had very few selections and none of them were truly different than the standards any place else. Everything tasted good, but nothing was special. read more

i am cautious about new restaurants assuming they'll need time to work out the wrinkles, while generating enough buzz to keep a skeptic interested. NB has persuaded me and made me an advocate. It's an attractive room with a Caribbean feel, ample patio out front and nice seating, full bar with a full length picture window. Around the corner from Oreatha's at the Point, it is a strong contender with more room inside. Skillfully crafted cocktails, especially the strawberry basil margarita And a full menu of vino and ales. Try the charcuterie board where the southern comfort/Mexican fusion begins. The marinated and grilled chicken burrito is exceptional. The turkey burger is tasty and above average. The fries are superb as are the black beans. The sweet potato poundcake is world class and deserves an award. Great to see another very promising foodie haunt flourishing in SW ATL near Atlanta University Center. read more

Natalie Bianca is a wonderful dining experience and a beautiful addition to the Cascade neighborhood. We love the inclusive, neighborhood atmosphere. The food was really good! We had the salmon and black bean quesadilla, the crabcake sandwich, and a beef burger. They also pour a lovely cocktail and our server Shawn was amazing. We definitely plan to make this one of our regular hangouts. read more

Good food, love the vibe and ambiance of this place. We went for Sunday brunch and received great, friendly service from Anu. Will be back!

I recently hosted a "White Coat" dinner for my niece at Cascade Road best new restaurant NATALIE BIANCA. As a foodie, I have eaten at top restaurants around the world (Morocco, Thailand, Toronto, Australia, etc.). Restaurant NATALIE BIANCA can more than meet or outmatch world renowned restaurants. Co-owner Courtney Rucker is friendly, and she and her staff provide first class service. My family and I were completely impressed with the wide range of tasty Southern and Mexican influenced food. Our first food board consisted of an assortment of shrimp tostada, crab cakes, fried green tomatoes, polenta, and salmon black bean quesadilla. The second board provided us with Caesar and Harvest salad with an option of various dressings. Our first Big Plate included Salmon and Grits to die for. The second Big Plate was inclusive of Bruno's steak marinated in Mexican herbs and spices. The steak was perfectly cooked and well-seasoned. Thirdly, we enjoyed Chef Morgan's flavorful Beef Short Rib with a house made demi and served with mashed potatoes and sauteed green beans. The food fest continued as we enjoyed two tasty desserts. Both the Banana and Sweet Potato pound cake were moist and delectable. Overall, my family rate NATALIE BIANCA as more than worthy of a Michelin star based on the elegant and exceptional food. I encourage you to try NATALIE BIANCA, which is now the hottest restaurant in southwest Atlanta. Ms. Jocelyn Johnson & Family read more

Exquisite wine selection, I enjoyed a glass of both the La Danza and Nivarius. The Board appetizer is divine if you just want a bite. I had the turkey in burger as a main and it is the best in the area by far. 10/10 recommend! read more

What a quaint spot! Decided on this new spot on a last minute whim as a we needed a place convenient to the airport yet not in the bustle of the city to meet a friend who flew into Atlanta on her way to Macon. We were served the most delicious, well seasoned and portioned food by a kind and attentive staff. They kindly served a meal we were splitting in individual plates without asking (usually restaurants just bring you an additional plate). Will surely revisit this spot with free street parking in the near future. read more

Food was awesome and so was my waitress Jessica, will definitely be back! Oh yeah we parked right in front of the door VIP lol

Delicious food and excellent service. Nice atmosphere and good location. Beef short ribs were excellent! We highly recommend it!
