4 Best Italian Restaurants in Dahlonega

“The service was attentive and exceptional. Our server, Beatrice, made excellent suggestions, which was important, being this was our first visit. The Zucchini and Carrot Soup, was an incredible start and the salads were fresh and refreshing. I had the Tuscan Salmon and Risotto, (image below) (oh and notice we sampled the food before taking the photos) the Salmon was cooked perfectly and the Risotto (the true test of any chef) was truly perfection. Ahhh then the desserts! Tiramisu was beyond expectations and the cannolis were perfect texture and a hint of cinnamon. Just like my uncle Tony used to make! We will be back! There are several items on this menu that are calling out to us. I can’t wait to try them. One will be the Ciopino!“

“Wonderful dinner for 8 last night! Beautiful venue, great service, wine & food!“

“Trattoria is a gem of an addition to Monaluce! Great food and service. Outside service is fabulous with a great fire pit. That being said, there is 1 negative that I hope they fix, or I will limit my visits. It's the wine cost and selection. Even at the finest restaurants in Atlanta 20 to 25 dollars per glass is ok for their finest wines. At Trattoria, their very mediocre wines, (was told a couple of them on the menu are grapes that they bring in), are 20-25 per glass. That, to me, is not a very good selling point. Expand your menu, add some NAPA wines, charge me 20 per glass and I will frequent Trattoria!“

“Matt and the entire staff were very professional and even did an off menu pizza for us. Great service and great pizza. Some people were referring to Matt as the Tom Cruise of Dahlonega due to his over the top bartending skills. You won’t be disappointed.“
