    Seafood pasta
    Robert G.

    Came here for dinner while in town. Service was decent. Served bread and drinks. Ordered Ceaser salad, lemon chicken, and 2 1/2 pastas. One was a ravioli dish and the other was the seafood pasta. Sat outside side and nice atmosphere. Ceaser and bread was good. Lemon chicken was very good Ravioli was a bit underwhelming with only like 6-7 raviolis. Seafood pasta was better and had shrimp, mussels and other seafood. Prices were moderate.

    Ooooh this place is a dream! The outdoor (enclosed) patio in the winter isn't just a last resort reservation option, it should be your TOP destination. It's cozy, (plenty warm) and romantic! It was 32 degrees outside, but completely comfortably warm, inside. You truly wouldn't know you weren't inside. Any way, I've eaten my way through Inman Park but somehow hadn't yet indulged in the delectable Sotto Sotto. This might just be my new favorite Italian in Atlanta. It was absolutely delicious. Across the table (thanks to the half portion option), we tried at least 8 items on the menu! Each one was more special then the next. Our incredible server Kagen (sp?) walked us through each section of the menu absolutely perfectly. As a result we ended up ordering some of his favs from across the menu. In my photos you can see what we ordered, but my recommendation is to simply ask your server what they like and you'll undoubtably get something stellar. In a market of many, great Italian options, Sotto Sotto might just be the BEST and my new fav!!! I absolutely can't wait to return.

    Pappardelle al Sugo d' Anatra

    Talk about one of the best meals ever! The entire experience was absolutely amazing and the atmosphere is very sincere and swanky. The service was also amazing. The food blew us away. The menu is primarily in Italian with English descriptions underneath. The Carpaccio di Manzo (beef carpaccio) was full of flavor. The charcuterie board was full of various meets and cheese that were flavorful. The smoked burrata was a perfect combination of flavors. The pastas are all made in house and there is no wrong decision on a meal. We all ordered multiple different pasta dishes and tried each others. There was easily no plate left with food over. Truly one of the best pasta and Italian meals I have ever had!

    Loved this little Italian place in Inman park. Really cute inside standard upscale ambiance. The paper on the tables gives old school Italian but meets more upscale. The artichoke spaceship or whatever was like a paper plane and I loved it. The Negroni is also good. The tortilli was delicious with the sage butter and the chicken was absolutely delicious. That'sDessert the have their take on tiramisu which was great, their Nutella cocktail could benefit from a double strain. Our server was admittedly new and that was sweet. I will be back. That is for sure.

    10/10 the risotto with aged balsamic was my absolute favorite. Great vibes, fantastic service and amazing cocktails!

    Pappardelle with duck ragu
    D.F. C.

    We had an absolutely delicious meal with really solid service. The meat salad was delicious. The Caesar salad was good, but not great. The Paccheri Alla Calabrese and the pappardelle with duck ragu were both phenomenal. Nudi was delicate and so yummy. Only complaint: our meal took us over 2 hours even though we had a small party. It was lovely and leisurely...but it also meant that valet parking was $10 (even with validation).

    The "lovely day"

    Had date night here a little while ago and we loved it! We had a reservation so we were seated right away. There was a pretty moderate sized crowd for a Monday night, so I'm glad we had the reservation. The food was very good, as well as the service (I wish I could remember her name because she was fantastic). The inside of the restaurant was very nice as well, very clean. We will definitely be back.

    Tortelli di Michelangelo Buonarroti
    Ashleigh P.

    We were starving and hadn't made reservations anywhere for dinner, so we rode our bikes down the beltline and just decided to try our luck somewhere in Inman Park. There happened to be two open seats at the bar when we arrived, so we snagged those. The bartender was slow to greet us, which I found surprising seeing as the bar is small and she didn't seem to be in the weeds. She also wasn't super friendly, but I guess that's kind of the norm these days unfortunately. We ordered a Caesar Salad to split - it was nothing special. Which I now find strange after dining at Fritti since they are sister restaurants and every time I have had the Caesar at Fritti it's been great. We ordered the Tortelli di Michelangelo Buonarroti and Lasagnette alla Bolognese for dinner. The bartender said that the Tortelli was a wonderful choice but when it arrived it was 10 sad little meat-filled pouches. The Lasagnette, however, was delectable. I would order this over and over again. Another semi-annoying thing was that it got to be uncomfortably hot over the course of our dinner. Being hot and eating hot food isn't the best. Anyway, if I had to come back, it wouldn't to be by choice.

    Linguine alle Vongole e Bottarga and Paccheri alla Calabrese
    Michelle H.

    Sotto Sotto is a cozy Italian restaurant that is kind of hidden. It can be easy to miss as there is no flashy sign, but upon entering the restaurant, the vibes are quite immaculate. Most people dining look like they are dressed for a classy event (I was not). It does get quite busy, so I would recommend booking a reservation if possible. The service was quite good as well. My boyfriend and I were excited to try the food because of the ambiance of the restaurant. To start off, we got the Antipasto Misto which came with some good cured meat, cheese, olives, and mushrooms. All of this paired well with the complimentary bread and olive oil. However, we were really let down by our entrees, which took a while to come out. We ordered the Linguine alle Vongole e Bottarga and Paccheri alla Calabrese. My boyfriend said the Linguine alle Vongole e Bottarga had no taste. I tried it and it tasted very clam-y if anything, but I could not taste the olive oil or garlic that was supposedly part of the dish. My Paccheri alla Calabrese tasted like a pasta with tomato sauce and no other seasoning. Maybe I should have asked for more parmesan cheese, but I was not impressed. I really wanted to like this restaurant, but the food was average to me. I would consider coming here again in the far future.

    $13 STROZZAPRETI ALLA SALSICCIA (half order): personally, didn't don't love this type of pasta. Came with a ragu meat sauce.
    Lisa T.

    LOCATION: It's kind of hard to see the sign out front but it's right next door to FRITTI PIZZA on NORTH HIGHLAND AVENUE. PARKING: There is only street parking and it gets busy during peak times like dinner or weekends. AMBIANCE: Fancier, fine-dining place. White table cloths. I walked in with workout clothes since I was walking the beltline and still sat at a table which they had no issue with. Even though I was not dressed appropriately for this place! My apologies. SERVICE: I wish I could remember my servers name, she was AMAZING! Will come back and hope she serves me again. FOOD: Great food! I want to come back to try more options. Highly recommend for a fancier date night! One super cool thing they do is serve HALF PORTIONS of their pasta! So if you don't eat as much or want to try more options it's such a great option they have, absolutely love it! $13 STROZZAPRETI ALLA SALSICCIA (half order): Personally didn't love this type of pasta. I'd try something else next time. Came with a ragu meat sauce. $32 POLLETTO AL LIMONE: this chicken was AMAZING!!! I highly recommend. It's so juicy and tender on the inside and very crispy on the skin/outside. The garlic spinach served with it was TO DIE FOR! Loved everything on this dish. PANNA COTTA: it was OK, I'd pass on this one. Just plain with a light drizzle of balsamic vinegar.

    I'm literally unsure if I was so hungry that I forgot to take a picture of my food or I was so excited to eat and I forgot to take a picture of my food. I came here for my birthday. I'm surprised it was my first visit because I love pasta and I love the Virginia Highlands area. But it was an amazing experience. I came out on Friday evening. I had a reservation for two. Was that at the bar had a glass of wine on your table to be ready. We said I cannot remember our servers name, but I wish I did because she was so knowledgeable of the menu and talk us through our whole ordering experience. I ordered a appetizer of muscles. My boyfriend ordered the smoked cheese to accompany our bread. I believe this pictured in my review. We both ended up ordering half portions of pasta. I ordered the Alfredo with shrimp and a mushroom pasta both were to die for. My boyfriend ordered a ravioli and he ordered lasagna . Naturally, I tasted his food and it was good as well. We sat in the interior part in the garden area the lighting the ambience is very pretty. The restaurant is intimate There's definitely a romantic vibe about the restaurant. The kitchen has a window; so it's sort of like an open kitchen concept. I'm surprised there isn't a waitlist going out for how good food was and how much I enjoy myself. I was also brought out pistachio gelato./ice cream for my dessert. It was a really good birthday dinner and I really enjoyed myself

    Wine spilled by the waiter on our daughter's shirt. No apology. Crazy.
    Janine R.

    Wow! What a night. This restaurant has been consistently one of our favorites. We've been going to this restaurant since the 1990's. Almost always we have loved this restaurant. The service was off and the food was not up to par. It was as if there was no management in the restaurant this night. Normally, operations run smoothly. While pouring wine into a glass, the waiter knocked over another open bottle and a glass of water on our daughter's lap soaking her pants, sweater, and splashing her shirt. The hostess came over with a cloth moistened with club soda -ha! Only a dry cleaner could hope to salvage this. No apologies from the waiter and nothing ever mentioned again. Not one word. No one offered to pay for her dry cleaning bill. We soaked it up best we could and asked for new napkins to put under shirt. They didn't even offer to comp dessert. Has us reconsidering our choices. Just wow. Disappointing.

    Great drinks and the appetizers are really good. Great ambience. The food tastes very authentic. Always great service.

The shop is small but cozy - but we loved the outdoor seating the most, especially on a warm fall day in Atlanta, since it's dog friendly. They offer full pours or various wine flight options found on their educational tasting flights menu. I decided to try the Pet Nat What, which offers 3 3oz pours for $15. The flight comes in branded Vin ATL glasses and a cute wooden flight board that makes it easy to carry yourself. And if you like any of the 3, you can also opt for a full pour, which has the pricing listed next to it. My favorite was the Heaps Offshoot, a Blaufränkisch, which I've never tried before. Nearly all their wines are organically or sustainably farmed. I love that the menu also provides recommendations for how you can enjoy the wine - with what dish, chilled or room temp, etc. We will definitely be back, although maybe once the weather heats up a little bit, because this impending snowy weather in Atlanta is no joke! Although maybe it would be an even better idea to pick up a bottle of wine ASAP before the snowstorm hits!

They hold a jazz night every Tuesday with live music for a nice chill, yet fun, vibe. Just a warning, the space inside is pretty small--typically there's optional seating outside, but it's really chilly at the moment (although they have heaters)--but there's more seating downstairs in The Victorian Atlanta plant shop. I didn't realize that the two were connected! FYI, if you sit downstairs, you'll be seated next to where the live music performers will be playing, so it will be louder there. As for the drinks, I tried the Zombie. I loved it so much, I ordered a second one instead of trying a different one! It tasted sweet and slightly tropical with the rum and spiced liqueur. It also had some absinthe, which I was worried about when I first ordered it since I hate the taste of it (not a big fan of black licorice flavors), but I didn't taste it at all! Overall, this place had such a great vibe to it!

After lunch this place caught my eye as…read moretheir beer and alcohol selection on tap looked expansive (56 to be exact--44 beers and 14 wines), especially for a location in the food hall. Aside from what's on tap they carry a selection of bottled and canned beers and wines too. From their website their initial vision was to be a growler shop, and they've been able to do that here at this location since it opened in 2016. This means offering refillable containers of varying sizes making it possible to offer independent brewers that may not have their own bottling/canning capabilities. Their staff is very knowledgeable and willing to offer recommendations based on your preferences. I tried a few things: - New Realm Oaxaca Chocolate (Mexican chocolate stout) $8.99 for 16.9oz thermos: I loved this dark beer with a deep malty chocolate note that leaves a hint of chili spice on your tongue. - Meridian Hive Apple Pie Mead $7.99 for a 8oz pour. On the sweeter side for a mead though not overly so. I liked the honey flavor lingering in the background. - Atlanta Hard Cider Co Cranberry craft cider $6.95 this local seasonal cider hails from Marietta, I enjoyed the balance of sweet and tart, not a flavor you usually see for ciders and I appreciate the creativity!
