The experience here was excellent, deserving a perfect 10 out of 10. The vibe is exceptional, but this spot isn’t suited for large portions. Instead, it’s ideal for a 3- to 5-course meal, savoring each dish. The staff is very friendly, and everything we tried was fantastic. From the beef tartare and oysters to the pasta and vegetables, every bite was delightful. I can’t comment much on their drinks since I only had Grand Marnier neat, and that's hard to screw up!

Started off in the bar area, friendly and knowledgeable bartenders who made great drinks. The food was fantastic, and the wine selection didn’t disappoint. Service from the bartenders to the wait staff was top-notch all around. I hosted an executive dinner here, and everything went really well. Definitely coming back next time I’m in town!

Great food, beautiful restaurant, my server was absolutely incredible. My only complaint would be the tiny tables. The tables are absolutely no fun. The table we sat at felt like playing Tetris with our food and wine. I was terrified the entire time with the expensive wine we ordered. I thought that if we sneezed wrong, spoke with any hand gestures, our wine or the glasses would have fell. Other than the tables, I love this place. If I make it back, I will have to dine at the bar. Seriously, we measured and the table is just a little longer than the width of the menu.

Terrible service. I’ve tried twice now, and both times were honestly the worst I’ve ever had.

If you’re planning on coming here for your birthday don’t bring a cake or flowers they won’t allow you to have it. Services weren’t the best, food wasn’t good either sent it back paid for the drinks only.

The standard of fine dining in Atlanta!
This restaurant is tucked away at The Forth Hotel in the Old Fourth Ward. You can park in the hourly lot right in front or do valet at the entrance for $25 (4-8 hours).
I came here on a Thursday evening with 2 friends around 7pm and had no wait at all. They have a lovely bar outside of the dining room with amazing mixologists who can skillfully make you whatever you like. They even serve Uncle Nearest and make a lovely old fashioned with it.
The service was IMPECCABLE. They started by giving us complimentary mini parmesan cracker sandwiches and bread.
I had the mero grouper with broccoli. It was fantastic. I enjoyed every bite. Our amazing waitress recommended we have the lemon ricotta bomboloni and it did not disappoint. It was so perfectly sweet, delicious and light after a filling meal.
The ambience was dark and moody in the best way. A five star experience all across the board. Our waitress even made impromptu reservations for us to head up to the Moonlight rooftop bar onsite afterwards.
If you have the Platinum AmEx card and use it to pay for your bill, you can dine here and receive your quarterly $100 Resy credit on your next statement (despite whether you’ve made a reservation or not). 😉

Had another great experience from the moment we walked in until we finished our surprise anniversary dessert. The bartender made an amazing mocktail for my wife along with a solid old fashioned. The service was top notch overall, especially our server who was knowledgeable about the menu and we never had to ask for a thing. I suggest going earlier in the night as this restaurant fills up quickly. Highly recommended!

Il premio, as name suggests, is truly a prize. We incidentally arrived to our reservation early and though we had to wait until our reservation time to be seated, the lounge was beautiful and comfortable and oh boy was the dinner worth the wait. Our server, Milan, was very attentive and fun and made some excellent wine pairing suggestions. I knew from the complimentary Parmesan crisps which kicked off the meal that we were in for a treat. We started with the sea bass crudo with caviar which melts like butter in your mouth. Then we had our mains - the pesto pasta and the branzino, both of which were perfectly portioned and incredibly well executed. We split zucchini as a side, which was reminiscent of ratatouille and so delicious. We ended the night with tiramisu and had to stop ourselves from ordering a second dessert even after the check came. We will definitely be back, maybe even for a special occasion.
This restaurant by far exceeding every expectation. Our server Aquila went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and well informed. The Somalia was so helpful with recommendations and the food runner Milan was so enjoyable to have around. We looked forward to every course because of it. Thank you for making this such a special night for my husband and I. We will not forget it!

Had a Wonderful dining experience at Premio last evening. Our meals and cocktails were Exceptional, and the Service we received totally enhanced the experience. Our server, Kelly, guided us through the menu and provided us with an abundance of care. Can’t recommend this establishment enough. We’re not local residents, but we’ll be back to Premio the next time we’re in ATL. Cheers!

My mom, sister, and I had such a wonderful first visit to Il Premio. From the start, Alex welcomed us in the lounge with warmth, helping us find the perfect glass of wine and continuing to check in throughout the evening. That kind of attentiveness really set the tone for the night.
Once seated, the staff as a whole impressed us with their impeccable service, but I want to especially highlight Milan. He went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable, patiently answering every question and sharing thoughtful, detailed recommendations. His passion for the food was contagious—he described each dish so beautifully that I almost mistook him for our server! Thanks to him, we tried the bolognese, which was the ultimate comfort dish and one we’ll be ordering again and again. His care and enthusiasm truly elevated the experience.
Shane, our server, was also an outstanding professional, attentive, and kind. Between him, Milan, Alex, and the additional touches from Andre and Brianna, it felt like the entire team was working together to make our evening special. The dishes we ordered, the branzino, Spigola e Caviale, Rigatoni all’Astice, and of course the bolognese were all exceptional.
The food, ambiance, and above all, the service exceeded every expectation. This was the first of many visits to come, and I’m so glad we gave Il Premio a try.
