753 Edgewood Avenue Northeast, Atlanta

“I would highly recommend BoccaLupo. We thoroughly enjoyed everything from the drinks, appetizers, entrees, veggies, and desserts. Very different drink and food menu adds to this top notch restaurant. All servers are very knowledgeable in the menu and daily taste specials. Also, they make excellent recommendations if u ask. I was impressed when they changed silverware after each course. Classy! Top it off with homemade pasta and your tastebuds will thank you. We will be back!!!”

“From the moment we arrived, the experience was exceptional. Although we were early, the hostess graciously seated us at the bar, where Lucas crafted truly magical cocktails that set the tone for the evening. Once at our table, Dakota seamlessly took over, demonstrating an impressive command of the menu and guiding us with confidence. What stood out immediately was the pace. We were never rushed, a rarity in today’s dining scene, and were able to fully enjoy each course as it arrived. The homemade bread was the perfect introduction, followed by appetizers that were nothing short of extraordinary. After a relaxed pause, our entrées were served, perfectly prepared and generously portioned. Just when we thought the evening couldn’t improve, the tiramisu arrived. It was easily the most melt-in-your-mouth version imaginable and the ideal ending to an already remarkable meal. Overall, it was a cozy, refined, and thoroughly relaxing dining experience featuring some of the finest Italian cuisine available. What the team didn’t know is that I grew up in a family that owned two Italian restaurants. Compliments from me are earned, not given lightly, and this establishment has unquestionably earned them.”

8 Capolinea

4.9 Superb 208 Reviews

159 Northside Drive Northwest, Atlanta

“My husband and I had the privilege of dining at Capolinea for the first time this Valentine’s Day, and to say we were blown away would be an understatement. The service was incredible, and the food was absolutely exceptional. We especially enjoyed the Maltagliati con tartufo. The noodles were clearly homemade and perfectly cooked al dente. The sauce was beautifully creamy with just the right amount of truffle. We both agreed it was the most authentic pasta we’ve had in the United States, and it truly reminded us of Italy. The Tricolore salad was another favorite, and we greatly enjoyed the filetto wagyu as well. The desserts were equally impressive and perfectly complemented the courses before them. Capolinea also offers an extensive wine list and a thoughtful selection of spirits, which their talented bartender crafted into beautiful cocktails. Beyond the outstanding food, the service was impeccable. We had the pleasure of being served by Dominique, who was professional, personable, and attentive throughout the evening. Our glasses were never close to empty, and he provided excellent recommendations while answering all of our questions with care. We cannot wait to return. The only regret you’ll leave with is not being able to try more of the incredible dishes in one sitting.”

10 Gigi's Italian Kitchen & Restaurant

4.5 Superb 227 Reviews

1660 McLendon Avenue Northeast, Atlanta

• Delivery

“We did a walkin right when Gigi’s opened at 5pm and got a table without a reservation. The servers were really nice and welcoming. We sat outside which was nice but since it was summer here in Georgia there were quite a few flies around so definitely something to keep in mind. The food and drinks are both creative and interesting and we enjoyed trying different dishes. The prices are pretty high for the portions though so I’d probably come back more for the experience and to try something different rather than for a casual dinner”

“I’ve gone in the last decade or so, I’ve tried a different cake/cheesecake slice. And every single time, I’m left feeling perfectly satisfied. The ambiance exudes “European decadence”, from the intricate bathroom detailing to the delicate cursive script written inside the coffee cups. Moreover, I always love how many people are also here near midnight with a slice and coffee in-hand, especially on those random weeknights. Absolutely one of my favorite spots in the city, and it checks all the boxes to be considered a must-visit spot for anyone.”

“This place was great! After an experience next door we crashed here and was NOT disappointed. We were greeted and reviewed the menu. Ordered the eggplant parmesan, meatballs, pizza and wine. We sat at the bar in front of the wood fire ovens. Got to watch our meals being prepared and had the most pleasant conversation with the pizza makers. The meatballs were FIRE! They were amazing, wonderful combo of meats and hand made…AMAZING. The pizza was also just the best pizza I have had in a long time. They finish with actual Italian olive oil which took the experience to another level. Then oh whoa almost forgot about their dessert. We ordered the pistachio cake and tiramisu. WOW, the dessert was simply beautiful and perfect amount of sweetness. Everything was fresh and amazing. All the employees there were wonderful welcoming and kind. Such a great place! Will be back for sure!!”

“We stopped in very early on the way home, around 3:30 pm. The hostess was very kind to the only server working at that time & asked us to wait for 10-15 minutes, to allow her to catch up and supper staff to arrive. After a short wait that was no issue at all, our server, Daijah came to the table & proceeded to give amazing attention to my wife & I for the next hour. She offered excellent food suggestions which we partially used. My wife's lobster spaghetti and my choice of dessert, their butter cake. We began with the tomato bruschetta & it was perfect. My wife ordered a bottle of wine with the meal, handled perfectly by Daijah. Angelo came by & checked on the meal and service during the entrees. All of which were incredible. I had the wagyu stuffed shells, in spicy red sauce, which was phenomenal! Our desserts of butter cake & creme brulee, were also superb. Kris came by at the end & we were happy to congratulate him on a perfect meal & experience. We will definitely be back soon!!!!”

“Had a great evening out with friends at Double Zero. Great location, right next to Emory University. The food was excellent. Their garlic knot is still in active memory even after a week. Service was prompt and caring. My one regret was that we were there on a weekday night, when the atmosphere was a bit subdued, and the foosball and pool tables were not being used. I can imagine the place becomes on big party on weekends, when the music is pumping and the game tables are being well used. Thanks for the terrific evening.”

“Rick was beyond nice, he showed the top selling plates and how to use the kiosk. He even came outside to wipe the table so it was clean. I got the Oklahoma smash burger with garlic parm fries. Everything tasted really good, I even dipped my burger in the fry sauce and it was even better. The only thing I’d change is making the burger patty just a little thicker, it felt like the ratio was almost there but lacking… but not by much! The fries were really good, a unique cut and it made them perfectly crispy but still soft in the middle. Can’t wait to come back and try more.”

His recommendations were excellent and the way he described the dishes made everything sound incredible. He has a real talent for making guests feel welcomed and excited about their dining experience. Honestly he was a huge part of what made our evening so memorable! Our server assistant Mira was also wonderful and attentive throughout the meal. Also the ribeye was to die for and it paired so beautifully with the creamed spinach. Thank you again!”

“Great food, but a little extra guidance would make it 5 stars! I dropped by ROSSO around 8:30 PM on a weekday after a Trader Joe’s run. It was my first time visiting, and the atmosphere was lovely, dimly lit, calm, and not overly crowded. I sat at the bar to place my to-go order and was greeted quickly. I asked the bartender to choose between the chicken parmesan and the chicken alla vodka, and he recommended the alla vodka. Service was fast, and I took the food home. When I unpacked everything at home, I was pleasantly surprised by the generous portions and massive chicken cutlets. The food was delicious! My only minor drawback was the customer service experience for a first-timer. Since higher-end menus often serve entrees à la carte, I didn't realize it didn't come with sides until I opened up my food at home. It would have been great if the bartender had asked if it was my first time or mentioned that sides were separate when recommending the dish. Overall, a very good experience with excellent food. I would definitely come back again!”
