50 Best Italian Restaurants near Hapeville

“I have to share with you how marvelous the staff at Your Pie are. I ordered my usual custom pizza on the app, but had some trouble before I could get it to go through. When I got there, the young lady asked me if I really intended to order a cheese pizza--because that is what came through--but she knew that I usually get something much more elaborate... SO, they didn't do the cheese pizza, but waited for me to come, so they could check first. I was SO STUNNED AND GRATEFUL that they pay such close attention to their customers! I didn't mind a bit waiting while they fixed my usual pizza for me. What kind, kind people!!!!“

“Excellent pizza! Great service. Hidden gem“

“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.“

“So many great options. I like sandwiches and order Meatball Parm, White Stripes or Muffalleta often. Fig salad and eggplant parm are special treats. Snickerdoodles can solve world problems.“

“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!!!“

“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“

“Incredible food. Fantastic service. Enough said.“

“Great service and nice menu selection.“

“Food and service was very good!!!“

“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.“

“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!!“

“I fell in love with this place over the weekend and now I cannot wait to return. It reminds me of some of my favorite NYC spots, with the beautiful front bar area and piano, delicious food, cozy design, and a lovely crowd The Saturday night sing-alongs by the piano were the perfect way to end my weekend. I had the lasagna ---YUMMY Calamari - SO good, not overly breaded, fresh tasting, and the right amount. Look forward to my next time and plan on bringing some friends!“

“Highly recommend. Great food, great wine, great service.“

“We have been looking for a great Italian restaurant in Atlanta. We finally found it. Everything was good from soup to nuts. Five stars! ⭐️“

“Absolutely amazing food, atmosphere, service, and overall experience. Our server, Brandon, was incredibly knowledgeable of the menu, had great personal recommendations, and was both professional and personable. A live vinyl DJ and the unique interior design both contributed to a perfect dining atmosphere.“

“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.“

“Very good customer service I was notified my 3rd time visiting that if I put my phone number in I can gain points which will ultimately save me $10 after so many purchases which was good to know I was told at this visit if I had been putting my number in I would have been able to use my $10 towards my purchase today great 👍🏽 system that keeps customers coming back thanks to the lead person Ms Renee I started earning points today!!“

“Great tasting food! Great casual dining experience!“

“This is my favorite “secret” in the city! Truly authentic Italian market and cafe. Sandwiches are made just like the ones I had in Rome! (The owners immigrated from Italy so you know it’s authentic). Unique Italian wine selection, and a perfect little market. I still haven’t done one of their cooking classes, but I want to!“

“Came here with a group of friends after a concert and loss track of time. The atmosphere is cozy and intimate, while our experience was relaxing and easy thanks to Jay. He made great recommendations and allowed us to focus on great food and each other’s company. Will be coming back.“

“This place was magnifique. It was my birthday and their distinguished service was above and beyond anything I expected The food was sensational and absolute perfection. I highly recommend them it was my first attendance, but will not be my last.“

“Great food and fantastic service!“

“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!“

“Great food great service ? really enjoyed“

“This is our go-to brunch spot for Virginia Highlands. Love love love the veggie benedict, french toast and bottomless mimosas! Osteria is a neighborhood establishment and we've been going here for over 20 years. Our kids were raised going to weekly dinner here and still obsess over the kids mac and cheese even though they're grown. The brunch is a great addition. The owner does a lot for the neighborhood.“

“Just tried this restaurant with my family. Highly recommend. Food was fresh. Pasta is made in house. The salad was fresh. Service was consistent. Place is beautiful. We will definitely be back.“

“We had a wonderful birthday celebration for my granddaughter yesterday evening at Amore e Amore! Delicious food and excellent service. The decorations and the party atmosphere were so much fun! I will definitely be back 👏🥂❤️“

“We had dinner here tonight after several hours at the Aquarium. The pizza was probably the best we’ve eaten around Atlanta and I’ve been here for over 20 years. Our server was friendly and on point. The atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable. If you are looking for a place to eat near the Aquarium, this is it! We will be back!“

“yummy! I got the tomato basil penne and garlic bread, it was delicious!“

“Came in for a quick dinner and honestly had the best time! Our server Emily was fantastic, kept us laughing, and provided solid direction on what to order as first timers. We will definitely be back to try more! The duck pasta and cauliflower app was delicious“

“Great atmosphere, exceptional hospitality and excellent food. My family and I went on a busy Friday night and our waiter, Freddy, provided us with one of the best dining experiences I’ve had. We ordered the Margherita and the Mergellina both were great. I look forward to coming back.“

“Had an amazing lunch at Elise today in a great setting.

Sourdough with butter and olives: The olives were so damn good!

Cavatelli with lamb ragu - Amazing, very generous portion. Flavor was awesome. Cold smoked lamb leg, braised after.

Smoked ricotta raviolini - Outstanding, beautiful presentation. Perfectly prepared vegetables.

It was busy for lunchtime, but Chef Craig still came over to address our table. Y'all need to check this spot out. Highly recommend, and I can’t wait to get back down here for dinner!“

“I love this local spot. Most everyone at the bar knows one another. Kind of like “Cheers” with a twang. I shouldn’t be reviewing it because I don’t want it to get more crowded 🤣 I love the bar side. The food is always consistent. I love that you can get one slice of pizza! But my favorite is the BLT. They really make a good BLT. The prices are the best around. The bartender is always busy but not so busy that you have to wait. Watching her and how hard she works is a small wonder. This place is my go to if I don’t feel like cooking. They have a good beer selection and give you a huge pour of wine. Ya’ll know I’ll be going back. Probably next week!“

“Yum!!! Super fresh and delicious! The menu options were filled with delicious options!“

“If you into pasta, their Fresh Baked Pastas are A1. Had the Shrimp Alfredo , everything perfectly seasoned, pasta cooked to perfection, shrimp mouth watering grilled flavor brings the entire dish together alongside fresh bread sticks and refreshingly delicious tossed salad. I RECOMMEND!!! Go GET yours! Many options pasta choices including No meat pastas!“

“Mckenzie,Kayla,Deanna, they were great. It was a great experience. I will definitely be back. Thank you ladies.“

“Former Victory sandwich shop, transformed into a nice Italian bistro. Shortish menu but very well prepared food at very reasonable prices: possibly the best dinner value in downtown Decatur. Interesting, fun drinks menu, too, including house made Italian-inspired sodas. Our server, Nichole, was superb.“

“Perfect for high quality of pizza. Thanks Wyatt for great costumer service.“

“My work shifted to teleworking full time but, man, I miss this delicious pizza! The absolute best! 🍕“

“Really original concept & brilliantly executed. Chicken vodka parm sandwich is absolutely elite.
These guys take their jobs very seriously & can tell.
One gripe is their online ordering system is suboptimal but product & service is outstanding“

“The best Philly and Italian sub and more spot in town you will leave satisfied!!“

“I absolutely love Tony’s at Brentwood in Stockbridge, GA! The fact that they’re Black-owned and operated by New Yorkers makes the experience even more special. The pizza was amazing—authentic, flavorful, and perfectly made. This place has officially become my favorite pizza spot—goodbye Fellini’s, hello Tony’s! If you're looking for real New York-style pizza with great vibes and even better food, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!“
