An amazing time and experience as always. Been coming to Di Paulo's since 2012 and never a bad experience. Zack is an amazing bartender and a great person. Thanks for another great time!

Growing up in New England I'm a seafood snob but Matthew our waiter assured me the special was fresh and it was. The fish was tender and cooked very well. The presentation was beautiful. Service was fantastic and all recommendations were spot on! It was a great date night.

Dinner for four on the evening of 13 April 2024 was not a good experience. 1. The waiter AJ was too touchy feely with way too much physical contact on the shoulders. 2. The food portions were small. 3. No meatballs available. 4. No terimasu. 5. No cappuccino.In closing, we will not return to this very overrated Italian restaurant.

The food and the staff are outstanding. I have never had a bad experience at Di Paolo in over 15 years. Zack, Alex, and Matt rocked it last evening, as we had limited time, and they made our dining experience flawless. The limited-window appetizer special with the elusive ramps, Nueske's bacon, polenta, and egg was one of the best things I have ever eaten!! I can't wait to return...

A wonderful experience for our anniversary date night. The cocktails were excellent, the bruschetta was amazing with goat cheese and slightly acidic mushrooms. The polenta was so creamy and Bolognese was very flavorful. I had the short rib on potato mash and it was so tender, delicious and succulent with the pine nuts a lovely addition. This place is a local gem. If you are close by and feel like some incredible Italian food, give it a try.

As usual we enjoyed the imaginative food preparation and the attentive service. A negative is the noise level after 7pm. We'll probably return on a weeknight and hope for a more enjoyable and quieter experience.

DiPaolo is a regular for us. They have the best bartender in Atlanta. The Italian food is authentic and they allow half portions which is really great because we're senior citizens we don't really eat that much. The ambience is fabulous and it's always crowded but I say that in a good way lovely place to go and I highly recommend it.
The food was delicious and perfectly portioned. The bruschetta was amazing and surprisingly light. The drinks were made well and the salad was perfectly made with all the ingredients evenly distributed. What made this entire meal was the fantastic service from our waiter Sean. He was very knowledgeable and listened well and made spot on suggestions. He made the experience one that I can't wait to go back.

The wait for seating was about 30 min later than our reservation, table location was right in the traffic pattern, overall noise level in the house was so high we couldn't converse normally across the table. We waited quite a while before the initial contact with our server, the food took over an hour to arrive after it was ordered but tasted good when it arrived. Not the best dining experience that we've had last night at this restaurant. Our dining experience has been better in the past.

I have to say this was probably the best Italian food I’ve had in the Atlanta area. Every dish was delicious. The bruschetta, hearts of palm salad and entree of Gorgonzola & spinach stuffed chicken were so fresh & delicious- I would order the same dishes again & again. The service was top notch- friendly, efficient and professional. I highly recommend this restaurant experience.

On Saturday night I had the privilege of visiting this site with my fiancé, And although the food is absolutely exquisite, what makes you fall in love with this place is definitely the customer service. They make you want to come back, because they are so attentive and kind and make you feel truly special. This place from now on will be one of my favorites! Thank you Di Paolo Restaurant Staff

Bartender Zac is a great person with a welcoming smile and personality. RJ, our server, was excellent. Great personality and great follow up. Our food was disappointing as the grouper was tough and mildly warm. Another dish wasn't as described in the menu. RJ offered a replacement but our party declined the offer. We had fun celebrating two birthdays and a surprise engagement. The restaurant brought a complimentary dessert which was delicious.
