This place is hidden inside a old apartment and the path to the restaurant is very dingy. Sat outside with pretty lights and heaters. They have most of dishes in both appetizers portion as well as main portion. The wine list was extensive. They have specials for every night and also their regular menu. The food was good, all of it was very fresh. The tiramisu was little too strong for my liking. They have complimentary parking.

I’ve heard so many great things about La Grotta and my boyfriend took me for an early valentines dinner. I was so excited for this. First of all, they have valet parking, you go inside and take elevator all the way down. We were sat down as soon as we arrived (reservations only) our waiter’s name was Billy and he is probably one of the best waiters I’ve ever had!!! He was very helpful and guided us through the entire menu along with great recommendations. I had wild bore and it was a 10/10 my bf had a thick cut of veal also amazing!! But my absolute favorite thing about La Grotta was the dessert, the BEST tiramisu and torta I have ever tried.

Romantic dinners in Atlanta’s top Italian restaurant for many years. Reservations usually required as La Gotta is popular.

Very nice atmosphere for a fine dining experience. I was there for a special occasion (New Year’s Eve) so there was a set menu but choices to choose from for all tastes.

I wasn’t too sure about going into what looked like an apartment or old Days Inn, but so happy I did. The food was amazing. The service was outstanding. And the atmosphere walking out of the elevator was beautiful and cozy. Make sure you have reservations. There is a large and lovely outside seating area. As well as an inside dining area that looks onto the outside dining patio. We ordered many items off the menu. The Bolognese was my favorite, but everyone around the table loved everything that was ordered. Can’t go wrong and Can’t wait to go back!!

La Grotta Ristorante was an amazing experience. We stopped by this weekend and got lucky enough to make the reservation just a few hours before visiting. Most people there were well dressed and the setting is really eloquent. The food and service was also excellent. Definitely one of my favorite high-end Italian restaurants in Atlanta.

Restaurant is legit Italian and very good. Ambience is good, but it does sit in very old 1970s condo building.
